I wanted to get a discussion going detailing the changes from Series 1 to Series 4 so far. I only have open figures from Series 1 and Series 3, so I cannot make any comments on Series 2 or 4. I've heard they replaced the knee with a different material? Ive heard things about the elbows etc. It sparked my interest, I wonder if its cost cutting, changing factories, etc. Series 1 obviously had the skin tone problem. Besides that though everything felt fluid on articulation, Kennys ankles were bad but thats about it. Series 2 I think they changed factories, skin tone seemed fixed, but had problems with scaling. Series 3 did they adjust the scaling? Not sure. All this stems from me picking up my Darby just now and realizing his right arm is broke and cant stay down to his side anymore like the left. Does your figures do this as well for this or the other series? Are these figures quality wise getting worst or better? Articulation? I need the experts here to chime in with your extensive knowledge. ALSO can I fix this?  |

It looks like you just have the shoulder joint positioned backwards....

Well that was resolved quick, wondering though has articulation improved, or declined?
Are parts being changed for cheaper material ones?
Is the Series 4 factory on the right track for the future waves as far as quality?
What needs to be improved still?
What DOESNT need to be touched?
I wish someone would ask Jeremy these things in an interview, maybe they have?

I've only briefly held my series 4 ... but it seems the forearms are much more "rubbery". Could be my imagination.

I have some of series 1-3
Skin tones def better on series 2 but were even better on 3
Scaling is slowly fixed with outliers like Moxley and OC
The thing I noticed the most is the waist articulation is way better on series 3. Series 1/2 were very loose especially on 1
