I bought a Nemesis Inmortal/Lt. Falcon CP a couple of days ago & I was very pleased with the figures until I discovered that NI tentacles backpack peg don't fit the upper back hole. Is this a common problem with Nemesis' figures or it's just me that I got a defective/badly manufactured accessory with it? Do you know any way I could fix it?
Thanks, Josean

If the peg is too big i would say carefully take a sharp knife or razor blade and shave off a few layers at a time until it fits

No, the problem is the other way I'm afraid.

ah,then its a little tricky,if you have a hot glue gun you can fill the whole,then carefully stick the Vaseline covered peg in there.Once the glue sets,pull the peg out and trim off any excess.
Or just fill it with blue tack if you want the effects to be reversable. Oooooor,you can wrap the peg in a thin layer of green stuff,then shave that off til it fits.

It's not the size of the peg, it's how you use it.
No, seriously, maybe tear off a little piece of paper and put it over the hole and push the peg in with the paper filling the gap around the peg. Not aesthetically pleasing but functionally acceptable.

how do you even get to his upper back hole, it dosn't seem that the torso armour is removable... I had a hell of a time getting his wings in btw.
But the tenticals seem to fit in everyone else's back hole so I assume they'd work in Nemesis if I could get to it.

The wings were my issue. I've never had him wearing the tentacles.
I posted about the wings months ago, and used a ballpoint pen tip to apply pressure and make a dot imprint in the plastic to push the pegs in. |

As I see it, the tentacles are a weapon for using on other figures, not Nemesis Enforcer. I don't think they're supposed to fit him.

Both are meant to fit on him....just not at the same time (at least Hasbro didn't design them to both be on at the same time).
