So you can probably have it with the shoulder pad thingies too
Ideally a version of the arms would be made with the shoulder pads attached to the shoulder similarly to the factory version. If they could figure out a separate piece that fits in the butterfly joint like Hasbro did with the Mk 3 MCU Iron Man shoulder pad, that would be ideal.

Ah damn, that's exactly what I assumed it was.
I got Colossus finally. Wow he's a nice figure. Very hefty. I really like the looks too. And all his joints work well. The book is a nice addition. I love this guy. He fits right in with the rest of the DP crew.
Thankfully all it took to swap the arms was a little heat on the butterfly joint sockets so I could pull the arms off with some covered up pliers and pop the new arms in.
Which arms are you using?
A set from AliExpress.

I didn't realize this when I ordered from AliExpress - but they are the Manipple ones. Exact same. They pop in and out very easily with a little heat, so it's the perfect release. The style of the elbow joint is a little different from Legends, also a little wider than usual (you can tell looking at the front of the arm and compared to the elbow joint from the Legacy tank top Logan) but that's a very very minor nitpick. You can't tell and they look and work fantastic. The biggest improvement is obviously the completely retained articulation, which you did lose a bit of with the Legacy Logan arm swap mod.
For those curious about the Manipple arms. Full review.
