I just picked up the Jesse figure I got on Sunday (that I haven't touched really since Sunday) and when I go to move his arm, Uh oh, the stupid piece of rubber that they stick in there came out of place as was evident by the rattling inside of him.
WHY DOES JAKKS DO THIS?!? At least glue the damn piece in there. This was the first time ever in my long history of collecting figures that I tore apart a figure.
I threw him against the wall and his head popped off and I then attempted to open his torso by inserting a flat head in his neck hole which then made the back of his neck break off and after that I had just had it. I stuck some needle nose pliers down into his chest cavity and ripped him open just to get a look at that POS shoulder joint. I'll have to go buy a whole new two pack now.

anger management control.
you could have popped open the torso and fixed it instead of literally destroying the figure.
I will admit though, I've gotten angry at figures before and torn them apart when I was trying to fix/customize something on them. Jakks torsos suck sometimes.

I like the yellow one more and I'm hoping I can just pawn the Festus off to eBay. I destroyed it because it was useless with a horribly floppy shoulder after owning it for 2 days and never even touching it I was initially trying to open the chest up but Jakks must put their whole budget into keeping their figures together so no one can fix them if something goes wrong. The glue should give way before the plastic does Their awful customer service doesn't help, if a figure breaks they want you to pay to ship the figure to them, then pay to have a replacement figure sent back. that

But the CW and HW....those are a pain in the ass. Jakks isn't much on customer service anyway.

Loose shoulder joints are the bane of my existence when it comes to Jakks figures. I bought the most recent Umaga and right out of the package his arm was wobbly. Within an hour his arm could freely spin like a pinwheel. I had to return it.

I know what you mean, I bought a belt pack London and kendrick and Kenrick was already rattling and it only lasted London about 3 days, before they both rattled, took 'em back and got a new one, since I realy like them, both of the new ones rattle too.

I decided that it looks kind of interesting now that I shoved his arm into his neck and he's holding his head by the hair and shoved a screw driver through his chest: I'm going to try and sell it on eBay as modern art. I'm not joking I figure if I get anything for it, that would be better than having him sitting around doing nothing
