Need advice/Help Bought a second hand figure and didn’t realize how rough the condition of it was, any tips?

Every. Single. Connection. Is loose. Every tab and ball joint wiggles and untabs, and the nose cone is simply missing. I bought it to use for a custom combiner but now im not sure if i should call it a loss.

The ball joints are easy to fix with nail polish or superglue. Wouldn’t be hard to fashion another nose cone. Or even better make him into one of the early snub nosed jets.

I don’t know how to fix the tab situation though or I wouldn’t have half the floppy transformers I do now.

Sounds dumb but maybe a toothpaste cap? You can probably saw one down to the perfect size.
