LOL, these guys are practically fighting the figures themselves. they're slamming them over 80 story skyscrapers and then stomping them and acting like they miraculously broke down. Come on these figures are not made out of adamantium alloy ( wolverines skeletal composition) so If you abuse them too much they will give. Another thing is I think these ppl complaining are WWE posers who are trying to wound Toybiz sales.

No it's just that Toy Biz QC has been lacking for a while now. I don't play with my figures And although none of my TNA figures have broke many have had stuck joints. Which I think is because they are posed and put on the bubbles before they paint has totally dried. I have had plenty of troube with the Marvel lines... I'm having the worst luck with Toy Biz this week. First My Bobby Drake is missing a knee pin and looks like he was painted by chimps.  Then I saw the ML Face Offs Hulk/Leader set with the broken Hulk. And today my two ML14 Falcons arrived from TRU.com.  The first one I opened was packed on the card the right way, but had some spots on his costume that I had to repaint because they got white spots on the red and red spots on the white.  But the second one was packed on the card upside down. Which I could have lived with...  But when I took him off the bubble his torso SPILT APART! What is their problem over there!? Other than the broken torso... this figure had a great paint job.  Up until about a year ago the biggest problem I had with Toy Biz figures wer usually just 2 left feet on figures. I have gotten a figure like that in every Toy Biz line I collect since they started the super articulated ML figures. (ML was the Series 1 Captain America & series3 (?)Wolverine, LotR Fellowship boxed set Strider & TNA Series 1 Jeff Jarrett.) with the exception of the Strider which I bought on Amazon, but was sold out by the time I recieved mine I was able to excange the others as they were readily avalible. I didn't exchange the Jarrett though, because I didn't care as I had only bought the figure for the title belt anyway. But in the last year their QC has been very poor. PJ |

Yes, Toybiz does have very bad QC, its becuase they cut costs on plastic and use paint washes that cause the joints to stick No it's just that Toy Biz QC has been lacking for a while now. I don't play with my figures And although none of my TNA figures have broke many have had stuck joints. Which I think is because they are posed and put on the bubbles before they paint has totally dried. I have had plenty of troube with the Marvel lines... I'm having the worst luck with Toy Biz this week. First My Bobby Drake is missing a knee pin and looks like he was painted by chimps. Id just be glad you got a Bobby Drake If you dont like him Ill buy off ya for $5 ;D Theres a pin there isnt there, it looks like it just needs pushed back in |

You have to look real close at what you're buying with all Toybiz figures. The other day I saw a Kevin Nash missing a hand and a Marvel Legends Luke Cage/Power Man with it's right arm broken off and loose in the package. They were excellent years ago, but Toybiz seems to have lost a step. Maybe now that the Marvel license is with Hasbro they can take some time to make sure the TNA figures are up to par.

Theres a pin there isnt there, it looks like it just needs pushed back in I was going to say the same thing. My 2-pack AJ Styles came like this too. Just heat up the leg and set the pin correctly. |

Id just be glad you got a Bobby Drake If you dont like him Ill buy off ya for $5 ;D Theres a pin there isnt there, it looks like it just needs pushed back in With the Drake I saw everything that was wrong with it when I was buying it, but I really wanted the character and I knew I'd probably not find another...So I bought it anyway. Because I knew I could fix the things (paint job & knee pin) that were wrong with it. But I shouldn't have to fix a brand new figure. Also as for the knee pin...Yes, there was a pin there, but it's the wrong sized pin. It was more like an ankle pin, because when I'd pop in the one side the other side would pop out. So I switched it with another pin from the parts box. The Falcon figures I bought from TRU.com, because I really wanted the character for a while and I didn't want to miss him as he's the only ML14 figure I wanted. But knowing Toy Biz's QC problems of late I decided to order 2 of them figuring one would look better than the other. Not only did I have to fix the torso of figure that was packaged upsidedown. But I had to repaint the crotch piece on both, because they gave the classic figure the Modern costume crotch and the Modern figures the classic crotch. Figure released with the wrong colored crotch piece (white triangle) repainted in the correct costume (solid red) -  Again, they were very simple fixes...But these are mistakes that they shouldn't be constantly making.

If you want quality wrestling figures that don't break, and you can give powerbombs in the street, get those big rumbling WCW figures from like 1997. Those are invincible.

PJ I don't notice problems like that maybe that's the reason we get them late in NYC b/c they make sure they're all top quality or it may be that the stores here gaurantee satisfaction I don't know but whatever it is there are no complaints. I would also like to know where did you get that bobby drake of course we still don't have in NYC so I'm asking as a favor. I'm planning to possibly pick one up from a friend of mine at Kbtoys if they do indeed get them in soon. |

I bought the Drake at the Nanuet NY TRU...The reason I bought it was because I really wanted it and figured I wouldn't find another...So I figured I could fix the knee and repaint it myself easy enough. I saw the ML Face-Offs at the Middletown NY Wal-Mart. And I bought the ML14 falcon figures from TRU.com, because they only ML figures I can find around here are the "Legendary Riders" series and I really wanted the Falcon to be made since ML series 1.
