If not, would a small amount pf plumbers tape work?

i have ruined a few pieces trying the super glue method, but i am terrible with glue. i've read a drop of super glue and keep moving the joint as it dries.

i saw this product on ebay
fix loose joints action figures by KiKi official
https://www.ebay.com/itm/203088038461?e ... SwWpFfRXVe
"For dropping Kiki only use small single drops into the jiont. Movie jiont every few minutes while drying as to not seize the joint.Work best with pinned jionts and soft ratchets"

i have no experience with it or the seller.

i don't mess with rivet elbows. They'll more than likely to crack if they they get over tightened. I've used supr glue or even just elmers glue on the swivels before. About 2 minutes of moving it around should be enough, but then I tend to keep fiddling with it once every minute for the next 5 just to be sure.
