I had a similar issue with my hof eddie. The upper arm feels stuck and when I move it, it feels like it's going to snap. It's just loose at this point. The torso I always have issues with now is the Seth Rollins, my elite 45 had a split torso that would show whenever you would rotate the arm.

All my recent elites have been OK so far ... but I haven't got that Y2J yet.

I haven't had this happen to me on anything recently. I think the last time I had this problem was with E53 Miz.

I know what you mean I have had that problem as well with Jack Gallagher, Scotty 2 Hotty and DM Jericho. My Scotty got really lose but then I wrapped those clear rubber bands around the arm socket and it really tightens the arm up nicely.

I have several of the figures mentioned in this thread but have not had any issues with them. I have had issues with other figures though. E50 Warlord and E55 Brock both have loose left shoulders. Brock is worse, his just spins and hangs limp. Warlord will at least keep a pose. But both figures straight out of the box have faint stress lines on the front ribs. I'm not worried they will break or anything but the lines are there.
I had to try 3 Wrestlemania Ortons before I found one that had no issues. The first one's right elbow was melted to where it wouldn't even bend. Still had the tattoo printed on it though. The second one had a stuck hip joint. Third one is good. The first SummerSlam Balor I bought had a busted neck. It was split wide down the seam on the left side. Never seen a figure with an issue like that. And every Elite Cena I've ever had from the very first to the WM one this year. All have had loose ankle swivels.

I never had much trouble with the arms but a lot of the elites legs didn't bend well(if at all) at the upper leg joint or would bend a little but not stay in place for a move like a piledriver or to have them sitting down

(Which was all of them) Run the figures under hot water for a couple minutes or just use a hair dryer to heat the hips for 2-3 minutes. Once you do that move the legs in all directions to make sure the range of motion is there. Then just put your figures in seated position or an outwards splits position and leave them like that for 24 hours. And the next day the legs will work perfectly. I did that will all my Legends and to this day the hips are still working perfectly on them.

I broke 4 Legends Rudes at the legs. Ive gotten PJs routine to work before but sadly I still cant get some of mine to work.

He's been an issue since I bought him. it works most of the time, but rude specifically ive had 3 of those figures and devoted so much time to heating moving leaving sitting overnight or for a week and it the leg would be workable for a little bit but would always end up twisting the barbell over time.

That's disappointing to read I wish they'd just do a WCW Rick Rude with real chest hair.

I can shake my Elite 56 AJ and his arm swings wildly around at the least movement. He cannot hold a pose. I only saw this figure one time in the wild so I'm pretty pissed.

If you know someone with braces ask for one of those tiny rubber bands. Put it around the arm and then stick it inside the shoulder housing. It will make the arm fee like new. And hold poses. If you can’t get one of those braces rubber bands. Then just use the clear ones that come with the figures. You’ll just have to wrap it around the arm until it’s snug.

I'm glad I've either never got a figure with that problem, or I never noticed the problem.
