yamato vf-1 1/60 v2 issue with transforming

[Foblander]

Hi guys I have an earlier V2 1/60 vf-1s focker edition and I have so much trouble changing it from battroid to fighter because the hip bar is stuck behind the nose hatch and I can't get it out like I can with my V2 1/60 vf-1s hikaru edition. I think the reason for the difficulty is due to the hip bar hinge not moving freely forwards and backwards. Instead it barely moves and is locked into whatever position it is left at. Has anyone found a good way to make the hinge on the hip bar move more freely so that I am able to release it from the nose hatch more easily? Thank you for your assistance guys

Thanks for the video. I was finally able to get the swing bar out doing it the way it is shown in the video with a minor difference (positioning the legs into gerwalk).

After struggling with getting the swing bar out the hips have become a bit loose. Any tips or videos on removing the leg of the vf-1 so I can apply some nail polish to try and get the leg tighter? Thanks

Just pull from the thigh intakes outward from the metal hip joint.
