Received B53 Tyler Breeze in the post today. Awesome figure, but it also comes with my first QC issue. As soon as I pulled it from the package I noticed his hand was lose, and there is also a substantially sized crack n the right side of his neck, where it looks like if I move his head, that it could fall off at any point. I was a little disappointed, but it doesn't stop me from thing this figure is great. So, if anyone can help out with some ways of fixing these issues that would be great, and feel free to share any issues you have had with QC recently. Thanks.

How loose? Lots of my figures hands are loose but never fall off.
And maybe take a pic of the crack in the neck? It won't fall off either way because it's pretty much locked in there. But just for visual aid

But just for visual aid It wont stay in one position, it will just flop from side to side. I'll take a picture as soon as my phone has charged up, but I'm sure it's probably just something that can be fixed easy. It's the shoulder split that connects the torso and the back of the figure together, it's cracked open. |

I'm sure someone here knows a loose hand remedy, but it's not something I ever notice enough to want to fix As for the shoulder Try snapping it shut with your hands ? If anything do the old boiling water trick and it should close right up. I'm just jealous that you have Prince Pretty and I don't  |

There is also a rattle inside the figure, but I'm gonna assume that has something to do with the loose hand. |

The rattle likely has to do with the top part being cracked. There's a little piece of plastic floating around in his torso causing the rattling. If it's already cracked a little tho, you might be able to shake it out of the opening |

If it's a little light one that's fine. My E12 Kane and one of my fav figs ever E18 Taker have these HUGE rattles and it's the worst. My E16 Diesel got one when I first got it from eBay. It was so stiff that when I moved the joints something cracked inside. I was actually able to pull 3 big pieces out of the back of the ab crunch tho. And he is now rattle free  |

Try a drop of super glue in the name peg. Just move the hand a.little.so it doesn't get stuck. The glue should add a.layer to tighten the hand

I usually get bad paint apps if I order online.
I opened the el torito/ hornswoggle battle pack and el torito's hands are very loose and delicate it's not a big deal as I just have them for display. Also the latest elite cena I got it's very hard for him to stand up straight as his trainers are very stiff.

First time I bought basic 15 Layla, I took her out of the package and her hip fell into pieces. There was either no glue or not enough and the halves separated and the lower leg dropped off.
The crack at the seam has happened a couple of times to me but not so bad as to have the head bobbling loose.

Huh, I've only had the "rattle" problem with an old Wade Barrett basic I got at a yard sale once.
