Octane Posted June 10, 2012 i just got my dd2 body a couple days ago, and i'm having a little trouble with the knees. i managed to get one back in place, but the other one won't budge. here's some pictures, please excuse the nasty yellow light. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5e65jVfYV1qfh0gpo1_500.png http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5e5z1zrLK1qfh0gpo1_500.png i don't know what's wrong, and i have no clue as to how to get her leg off of the torso to see what's going on in there. ;A; Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XOHimitsuOX Posted June 10, 2012 Here's a post of the internal skeleton structure, to give you an idea how it's put together. viewtopic.php?f=21&t=44 You probably need to twist it back and forth to ease the joint back in. Using a hair dryer to try to warm up the thigh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nehelenia Posted June 10, 2012 It happened to me as well. It won't be very easy to fix this. You will have to remove the whole leg from the body. The screw on the knee have probably been unscrewed. You will just have to screw it back again. The tricky part is to take off the leg (that is extremely hard!) and to be able to put the pieces back together after you are done. It's really hard to be accurate when you can not see what you are doing :S I am afraid that the left leg of my dd II body is getting loose as well. So I might have to repeat this torture again. If I do I will try and take photos of the procedure. That might help you. To take the leg of just heat it a little bit with a hair dryer and pull it horizontally Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shinegamix Posted June 10, 2012 use a hairdryer to soften the legs so the inner frame comes out more easily. if the knee joint is loose because of all the posing over the months/years then unscrew the whole unit and put some kips inbetween them. then put it all back together. should be nice and tight again making my triumphant return Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Octane Posted June 10, 2012 i used the blowdryer and got the leg off, and i managed to wiggle the knee back into place. it looked like the hip joint wasn't pushed all the way into the vinyl upper thigh covering, and was caught somewhere inside. she's standing now, and her knees bend like they're supposed to. thanks so much everyone!
