which is why I will soon stop HT (or probably concentrate on their more 'valued' dx releases) and move towards PF's

btw does anybody know how to disassemble the knee joints of Iron Man M6? Mine has a very loose knee joint. the lower part of the doubled jointed knee moves front and back like a dead leg and i can't seem loosen/remove/tighten the screw located at the side of the knee properly. I suspect the hole thread is not gripping the screw well anymore and I cant take the screw off! It's weird coz i never played with it at all..been in the box all the time and only brought out to check the fading undies (what luck)

just concentrate on DX should be happy already. They haven't transfered that terrible qc issue aura on their DX line yet (apart from batman DX02). If their prices keep going up but their qc and detailing keeps going down apart from their HS then might as well start go into polystone statues or PF statues. Lasts longer and easier to clean if got dust and NO REISSUE

beastx i don't understand what you mean...is it that they placed an extra layer in between the bicep hole and the end of the forearm joint to maintain movement of the arms? cheap method perhaps?

i ....want...HOT STUFF...seamless...body...

that's an over usage of the mould of the figure/didn't do a proper maintenance on the mould...either that or they haven't been consistent with the plastic to temperature ratio and cut corners on the timing of injection moulding to up the production process..or i could just be wrong for all of it

Thanks for correcting me Beastx! I forgot about the flash part. Need to revise my knowledge about injection molding again hehehe.

i bet because of the very high price = less order = low volume production = more time for production = more focus on detail = high quality product = higher QC customer very satisfied ..but that is highly unlikely considering 2012 there are going to be a loooooooot of figures coming out
