People use glue on it, not sure what kind, but I hear it helps a lot.

Superglue! What you do is apply a bit of superglue to the loose joint and keep moving it back and forth so it won't stick. The superglue would have dried therefore making a thick layer inside the joint to prevent it from being too loose. Be careful not to spill it on the figure and make sure to wash your hands after

Our Sin Cara has loose ankles! It's annoying! I'm afraid my son will break it soon enough.

Be careful not to stain the figure with the superglue... I ruined a E11 Barrett's Nexus t-shirt because of the superglue...

This one. Does it leave a white-like paste around the ankle?

Some glues will remove the paint off the figure too.

Does it leave a white-like paste around the ankle? No, never had this problem. You can inject the glue right into the joint with the thin needle. I did this with a lot off my figures. It works fantastic. Sorry if anything is spelled wrong. ;D
