Mine arrived damaged in the box. I need the same part as you do. I hope they have enough to go around.

Yeah, those right arms fall out way too easily. I was futzing with the cape and I barely touched the right shoulder (seriously, I'm not even sure it was me I think it was the cape) and the arm falls right out. Had my left wrist not been in the way it would have hit base. Got lucky. BE CAREFUL WITH THOSE RIGHT ARMS.

What are the chances they reengineer the right arm to include a more stable fitting before they ship the 2nd wave?
I'm already getting my second wave shipped so doubtful much was changed but one can hope, will update. I just hope mine doesn't come bused and thanks to those who mentioned the right arm being delicate. I'll be sure to keep an eye on that as I am a klutz.

O% unfortunately. The saber arms are a ***** to get in together too. Makes the likelihood of me ever using the light up on the chest even less.

Are you sure you're puting it deep enough ? I thought I had this problem at first, but it's just that I didn't push enough. After I did that, it turns out it's actually way more stable than the left harm. (just wondering, I'm not doubting you or anything
)

It's hard to say really. I pushed in it like you did and it felt stable no problems. The problem is because there is no magnet there is nothing holding it in place beside friction. Play around with his cape enough bump the arm a little over a couple days and the arm literally just kinda pops out.

Why not just buy two strong magnets, place one on the arm and the other inside the cavity?

My right arm feels pretty secure but I pushed it in good after someone here mentioned it being a problem. I suggest testing the fit with one hand while spotting it with your opposite hand. Some people's might be more secure than others based on slight variance.

It's as far in as it will go. I think it may be loosening up over time.
^This.
You read my mind. I put some mounting putty in the socket for good measure.
Mine feels like it has a magnet.and hope u didn’t get putty in the electrical connection.

Nah, it's easy enough to avoid. Putty is only making contact with polystone.
Definitely no magnet on either one of the right arms on my piece, btw.

You happen to know when and around what time you got on the wailist? My brother saw mine and decided to try and purchase his first statue. Sadly it was waitlisted by the time he tried to purchase.
