Tightening 25A hip joints

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.

It seems that everytime I disassemble 25A legs, the hips end up becoming loose despite me carefully placing the rubber friction pads back in place. Any solutions?

what about usign a bit of glue froma hot glue gun, liek done with the ball joint for heads?

or maybe some green stuff.

Every time I take thighs apart, I glue the pad in place. Some times I put too much glue, others I put just enough. Can't say I've had any problems at all either way.

I make a shim out of .010" thick sheet styrene, to put behind the polycap. Seems to help.

The drop of glue goes into the outer leg half? I'll give it a try.

I put a drop of superglue on each side of the leg half, let it dry and then put em back on. I haven't had any problem with it and they get tight but not too.
