Hi !
Yes , you have to be a surgeon and a mechanic . My problem is that joints make an awful noise , they sound like Dracula's castle's door . I do not want to open the doll to use some WD-40 so, I will continue with that creeping sound . Beerssss

Tight joints can gradually wear and become a bit looser, although there have been instances of joints completely locking up

Bianca, tpe legs and knees

Here are videos that show how to do it.

This is only a reference of the work to be done as the type of bolt / nut may be different on your doll.
