How do you fix the dreaded "Duke Arms"?

Got a tip to share? Have a question about the hobby? Need input on parts or weapons? Have great idea for a custom figure or vehicle? Too lazy to do it, or just want to share the idea with others? All that and more goes in here.

Specifically the elbow joints. I've got a friend who wants to know. :shifty:

I'd have to check one of my Duke figures and get back to ya. What exactly did you want to fix?

by Kilcarr

How to get the arms to bend at ninety degrees.

Send it to Carnage

by drbindy

this is one way. I'm not endorsing it, as I've not done it, but it's an option:

Looks like bindy's link tutorial would work just fine. Not much work either.

I'm going to be stuck with that "bindy" label forever, aren't I John? :lol: :rant:

Well, what's your first name, I'll use that from now on ;-) .

I know it's supposed to be DRB Indy but I always say it in my head as Derbyindy.

LOL Sorry for derailing the thread! Yes, it's drb - indy. Have had that email for so long, I certainly think it pre-dated Bindy as in Steve Irwin's daughter. :-P You can call me what you like for sure. My real name is Dennis. I didn't even think about it when I first joined. I go by Knighthawk on the other boards, but I'm not nearly as active anywhere else.

by Keenan

I've always read the name as Dr. Bindy. But I'll try and remember Dennis :-D .

Are you going to give the mod a go, Billy?

by Kilcarr

Possibly. TF Duke really disappointed me. :-(

by Macrossmaster

You found him already?!?

by Kilcarr

No, silly :lol:

Um. I can get Duke's arms to move to a right angle w/o modding them. Just make sure that the thinner part of the cuff is in front. You have to kinda crank on it, but it's never felt close to breaking. Just let the cuff go under the upper arm.
