Iron Man 2 Mark III leg joint swap.
 
Hey guys! Haven't posted in a while, but I have gotten a slew of new toys this past few months.

I just got all 6 of the Iron Man armors plus War Machine over the weekend, and I was pretty psyched about them. The only catch was the Mark III.

Now I like the Mark III, but there's a problem with it: the swivel peg ball joint things are switched. You can tell because the flare/emergency flap switch is on the inside of the thighs. I looked right in package, but comparing it out of package with the cardback picture, it seems that they were indeed switched.

So wanting it to be pretty accurate, I wanna switch the two joints, but I want to know how to go about doing this without destroying the joints. I think the hot water trick might work, but do any of you guys have nay suggestions. ANy would be welcome.

Well I thought about it.

Until I saw that all the ones I saw had the same exact problem.

I'll take some pictures tomorrow because I'm sleepy >_>

And the main problem is my OCD ^ ^;

I'd like for it to be as accurate as I can get it so I might as well just fix it so it doesn't bother me.
