I need help to repair my BH WJ missing pin

Plastic was a fantastic invention for toys if you don't break it. Otherwise you can never get it back like new.

go to value village,buy a small bag of toys that have pins in them for 1.99,go home,destroy said bagged toys for pins and re-insert into wheeljacks arm.from looking at my prime banzaitron(basically same mold as wheeljack,just fugly colored)
you can get away with a regular tiny machine screw in lieu of said pin as long as you have the collar that used to surround the pin and actually plug into the arm.
if not,get a bigger countersunk screw,big head,short shaft(giggity)
if you have pcc heavyload,the barrel on his turret is held in with the same flattop pin/collar combo set up.

I have a question, since I superglued BH Wheeljack's loose joint and I wasn't able to do nothing, and I decided to replace his whole arm which I was able to take out, but the thing is, I am having a hard time putting it back on now, did I brake it? cause I don't see any broken pieces.

^patience,do it slow and steady.the hard part is the cylinder the shoulder socket plugs into moves left and right too.
if you're still having issues,immerse the whole arm in hot waterjust the arm,not the bot),specifically the upper shoulder area and it should heat/expand the socket in the upper arm enough to pop the balljoint back in quite easily.
same trick is needed to pull apart and reassemble robot heroes and vintage battlebeasts.

I think they sell pins and black collars that surrounds the pin at hardware stores

Very nice advice!

I have a quick question, on Masterpiece Soundwave, you can store the guns for Rumble in his feet. The right storage door/side of foot is stuck in the closed position.
I've just tried fairly gently to open it again with no luck.
Any advice before I pry it open?

I tried numerous times nothing. I am stuck with no choice getting a TF Prime Wheeljack

Maybe you should focus on the other half dozen awesome toys you just got or go and buy a Prime Wheeljack for yourself. People often sell them on here for less than ten dollars.
