@9:15 You have to be really careful with those rotating hinges for the hips that connect to the legs to the pelvic bar. That tab you're pointing out is meant to slot into a notch on the inside of the joint cavity where the leg connects. You can see these notches in your video. When you flatten the hips for transformation back into aircraft mode, the notch and the tab connect. But as you're showing, that rotating hinge can rotate independently from the leg joint. Over time it can turn out of alignment, as you pointed out at the beginning of the video. In mine, after a few transformations, the rotating hinge had turned completely around 180° so that little tab was facing the front rather than the back. It was very difficult to rotate it back around to the back. But if people are very careful when manipulating the hips in transformation to ensure that the tab and the notch stay connect when flattening the hips, and they stay locked together when manipulating the hips back into diver and fighter mode, it should stop those joints rotating out of alignment.
Yeah, that hinge came misaligned from factory. Didn't have that issue with the other two Legioss, at least don't remember having that issue. And TBH, don't remember if I mentioned it in the video, but that was the first time I was tranforming this figured, straight out of the box. I had them for over a year before I had the room to display them. Thanks so much for the detailed comment and hope you enjoyed the video. Take care 👍
