A while back I made a post saying how a lot of recent figures of mine have had loose limbs, whether it be arms, shoulders, waists, etc. For Christmas, I received 10 figures; both from retail and online. And while I appreciate all Mattel does for us, I am appalled that literally 7 had at least one loose limb. This is insane! I'm not sure if I've just had an ungodly amount of bad luck or if this is an issue for anyone else. I find myself spending lots of money on figures that crap out right out of the package. What is happening?
BTW I open my figures very slow and carefully to not ruin my figures.

A lot of my joints are loose as well. It's a bummer.

I've had a couple with loose arms also, both Mattel and Jakks. However, the main problem I'm having is getting a figure (fresh out of the package) with a rattling piece inside. I hope that the quality control issues I'm hearing about are due to the holiday rush and that they're less common in the future.

Luckily the only figure I have with a loose piece inside is the debut Mankind. But he eats enough chair shots to justify it |

Depending on the hip joints from the legs to the crotch on the figure, it's either going to be stuck or very loose.

Loose waists but thats about it, I get way more warped legs. More problems with stiffness than looseness actually ....
