    Shock oil is definitely a great investment for collectors, especially when some joints tend to be hella tight, it is kinda sad when the figure has lubrication issues but this is really the best solution
    Thanks for the tutorial!

      Agreed, no idea why its taken me this long to get some lol. I said it a couple times but as annoying as tight joints are id much rather them be tight and easily sorted with shock oil than too loose and be forced to use super glue etc.

    alternative if your lazy or too broke to get some shock oil you can use dish soap and water mixture and apply it the same way. did it for my tonsen trunks

    Do you know of any way to get that oil on the necks ball peg inside the torso?. Mines super tight and I don't see any way to get the oil on it. I can't heat it up to take the torso apart because the black tank top is glued to it and I don't want to ruin the glue

    I just got my Trunks in recently and his legs(hips specifically) are so tight I'm afraid they'll break. How do I get the shock oil onto those leg joints without pulling apart the figure(afraid I'll break him)?
