If it's the hip joint, the best method I've found for tightening them, is to take the leg apart, and smear a thin layer of superglue on inside of the tube like shape on the inner thigh, that the T-bar goes through. That extended end of the T-bar slot is the socket that the ball rides in. A little superglue in there, will generate more friction of the ball joint. You can put a little superglue on the end of a toothpick, and spread it around the inside of the socket. Let the glue dry, and test fit it, to see if it's tight enough. If not, you can always add more.
My Snow Serpent had the same problem with the lower joint, on the left knee. I wound up popping the knee aprt, and adding glue to the peg hole, in the knee piece. It's not perfect, but it's good enough to hold a pose. The real problem is that the knee isn't engaging the detents down in the lower leg. Maybe, I should have built those up with some Shoe Goo.... |
