My Andrade has a floppy chest. I bought a second one and he had the same floppy chest. Does anyone have a trick to make it better? Frustrating to pre-order back in July and the reward for the wait is a dysfunctional figure.

now your figure can do the truffle shuffle easier

I usually dab a little glue within the crevices of the joint and keep working the ab crunch until it dries.

You can try to shove cotton up the torso. Not to much try using q-tips and maybe a long pin to push up there.Not the greatest fix but unless you torso crack it there isn't much u can do.

I've seen some people use the thin plastic strings used to hold the figure in the bubble. I haven't done it myself as I don't have the issue that much. My NS Asuka does but the women have different torso articulation to the men. I've been hearing NXT Andrade has been terrible for it.

My Andrade does as well.
It's obviously not just some one off fluke, I wonder if there's some way to get replacements that aren't messed up from either Ringside or Mattel.

Its part of getting older. Unless you hit the gym everyday and floppy chest is gonna happen eventually

I am gonna see if i can stuff a piece of rubber/plastic in there because sometimes they use the wrong tensioner bushing or dont even put one in to begin with

you have to split the torso open and replace the rubber that fell out of place

My Andrade has the same problem. I stuff some pieces of paper in between the gaps on the sides of the ab joint. I honestly regret buying the figure now that I see a much better version is coming out. Oh, well.
