Unhappy Stupid Wheeljerk!

So a week ago I got Generations Wheeljack from BBTS. He was one of my favorites as a kid, and I never had him, so I was really looking forward to him. Transformed him, and WOW.. awesome.

So a few days ago I transform him to car mode, and while doing so the arm pops off the ball joint. No biggie.. I'll just pop it back on... but the damn thing won't pop back on! I'm lucky if I can get it to hang off the balljoint!

Has anyone else had this problem?

Yup, with tracks, but some force gets it back on. After a couple popoffs though his arm got loose so I had to use some clear nailpolish.

Re: Stupid Wheeljerk!

Yeah, I thought the nailpolish thing would work.. No luck though. Its just completely done. I guess the hole in the shoulder piece is just to big for the balljoint.

My tracks seems to be alright though.

Re: Stupid Wheeljerk!

i had this problem with my cyclonus (cyc/rodimus 2pack) the arm would just not stay on, poor quality control i guess, i returned it and got a new one, is good now.

Re: Stupid Wheeljerk!

I'm just glad that it sounds like a one off kind of thing. I'd hate to have to buy 3 or 4 to get one that didn't have this problem

Yea he is terrible, I actually lost it for a bit as it popped off and scooted under the couch.
