PotP Swoop's legs

I don't know if it's a flaw or mistake on my part or what but Swoop's legs just won't tab together. I can tab the feet together but the rest of the legs won't, even if I try to push both sides together (as seen in photos) . It feels like maybe a tab is too big but it looks more like his thighs aren't made to bend inward and the tabs are too weak to hold against it. Even the inner hinges for combiner leg mode don't really do anything.

Has anyone else gotten this problem? He makes a pretty weak arm which is disappointing.

Re: PotP Swoop's legs

One solution I just came up with is if I tab Jazz's combiner hand onto Swoops legs. It's tight enough to keep the legs together. It's not too bad.

Re: PotP Swoop's legs

no issue with mine, need a bit of force for the two legs to tab together but it stays after that.

Re: PotP Swoop's legs

I'm going to try and force mine together too... I think the tab is a little to big. Might shave off like half a mm...

Re: PotP Swoop's legs

I picked up 2 and have the same problem with both. Ive read on other boards this being a recurring issue.

I like the idea of using another combiner hand on the back to peg more secuerly together. Will definitely be trying this

Re: PotP Swoop's legs

It wasn't clear to me which tab might be the problem, so if you try it out let us know if it worked.

Re: PotP Swoop's legs

Just checked Mine but doesn't have the issue. It does have a super, i mean doesn't stay closed at all, lower jaw. But i think so pledge floor polish will solve that.
