I love this line of figures and aesthetically they look fantastic. However my bubbly Jericho’s crotch came apart as soon as I pulled it out the box, I’ve had to glue it back together as it was so loose it wouldn’t stay in place. Also my Omega has a gammy foot that won’t sit right.
I’ve still got the rest of the line to open so hopefully there won’t be anymore problems. My series 1 Jericho had no problems luckily.
Has anybody else encountered similar issues?

Has anybody else encountered similar issues? In sorting through these in the shipper, I noticed some Omegas with some wild ankles in the boxes, and I remember a thread on this same issue. I got one that looked good, I’m guessing there are some quality control issues early. They still look phenomenal the ones that don’t have these issues. |

You’ll notice in allot of Omega figures Moc the right ankle is at an angle it’s actually pretty clear in allot of online pics of the fig keep this in mind while you picking through An assortment if your in that position it might just help ya avoid an issue caused from sitting in the box too long

I have Bubbly Jericho, series 1 Jericho, Cody and Omega and the only QC issue I have is a couple small staining dots on Omega’s left shoulder from his coat. All their joints are tight enough to hold poses.
The only other issue I have is I can’t find them at Walmart to pick up my second Cody and Jericho figures. Once I have those unless I see the chase figures I am done until series 2 Hangman, MJF and Dustin.

My kenny has really loose feet that swivel but ive heard this is common with a lot of other people. Not a super big deal to me. I'm disappointed about the skin tone but can't do anything about that now. I'll live with that too. I do not like the clicking arm joints, I really wish they will somehow get rid of this in the next waves. One of my bucks jackets broke taking it out of the package which sucks but oh well. I still love this line already.

Series 1 or Bubbly just wondering if there’s an issue with one more so than the other Bubbly Jericho That sucks brother especially being the exclusive one curious if this tends to be the one that has issues if this happens a few more times going forward or if anyone sees it in series 1 or if it simply turns out to be a very isolated and inconsistent issue Im still waiting on my bubbly’s so no first hand knowledge |

I didn't think I would have disliked how pale the skin can be for my Kenny, but compared to my other Elites I am wildly shocked/disappointed about it. I understand the next series should have this fixed but dang. There is a LOT of room for improvement on these figs, but I am super excited to get a future "tan" Kenny lol

I like the figures and love that they scale with Elites. My concerns have to do with the joints as I don't believe they will hold up over time. As a display collector I love to pose my figures, but I think these figure will become very loose and hard to get in a few dynamic poses.

I actually think they'll be able to keep their flexibility more than the Elites given the notches in the elbows and knees. I'm confident the quality will improve in Series 2 and onward. Also, what class do you run in D2? |

I have two Omegas and opened the one that had a straight ankle as I thought it would be more stable. Kept the bent angled one moc. The one with the straight ankle was extremely loose. |

Good to know I only opened one of my omegas and it was perfectly fine so can’t confirm either way |

Also, what class do you run in D2? The ratchet joints are okay, but the ball joints are a concern. I know Elites have there quirks. For example, the ankle pegs are known to get really lose. This is especially true for early elites like Cena or Batista. I like AEW unrivaled and will support the brand. D2; a guardian rock all classes. But more often than not, you'll see me rockin my nighstalker hunter. |
