Super disappointed in the Tyler Bate figurine!!

Heat the arm up with a hair dryer for 2-3 minutes then try to move the arm. Hope that helps.

This seems to be a semi-common problem recently with at least half a dozen different figures I've bought. Hold shoulder in boiling water for about 30 seconds, and then try to rotate it. If it doesn't work on the first try, repeat. I've never tried using a hair dryer, but have also heard that can work as well. Once you get the arm loosened the first time, you shouldn't have any issues after that.

I’ve actually been having issues with torsos being stuck and unable to rotate without force.

Apart from being utter rubbish, mine is perfect

I would have offered you mine if I still had it - I bought it for the belt. I don't want to start a big debate about this - but the QC on figures recently hasn't been all that great.

I can't tell you how many elites since last year I've opened and the torso is at least partially split. It puts a damper on having them because I'm always afraid they'll crack if I don't handle them super gently.

Its not a figurine its a doll.

My second Dash was okay but two Dawson's in a row I got pinwheel arm syndrome. ALSO happened with the Lost Legends HBK (and on top of that, his foot snapped off immediately). Finally, my first Akum's bicep isn't just loose, it literally just slips off the shoulder.

It's definitely a been a streak of pretty bad quality control for me.
