From what I understand, the gun hoses are extremely fragile, any ideas on fixes so i can actually bend the arms?

the way i look at it is, his card art has him posed where his arms are almost straight forward! i dont think he's a figure to be played wit', jus for display! i think his arms are supposed to be positioned as seen on the card! no 45 or 35 degrees! i wouldnt try to pose him like the rest of the figures, an woulkdnt play wit' him if you're one of them dudes that plays wit' his toys!

You guys aren't comic readers, are you?
Anyway, it's not quite a fix, but truthfully, I just bent the arm until the wires snapped (I was actually testing their durability). After that, I took a scissor and snipped them off - pretty low-tech. But, now he's much more poseably, and the blue "strap" that anchored the wires isn't that much of an eye-sore. The real problem w/ poseability from my POV is his chest protector, which either limits his movement or makes it look like he has no neck. Not a well done figure - Hasbro still hasn't figured out which articles of clothing/armor need to be molded on in order to avoid poseability issues. |

Because of those fragile tubes, a loose Wraith with intact tubes will probably be worth a lot more in the future. To me, I don't really care. I customize 'em how I like them the most for my own enjoyment.

Blow him up. That'd be more fun anyway. Don't forget to video tape it and post it on youtube.

Mine's dead. The only sensible thing I could think to do with it. Maybe if he was the clear one he might still be alive. The hoses snapped when I tried to put them in different positions. It doesn't seem that his arms are supposed to move too much.
