What is everyone's thoughts on the clicking shoulder joints? I personally hate them but that is because I actually still play with my figures. It is really my only gripe about this line. I guess I could see these being somewhat useful for people who pose them or do figure photography but other lines have accomplished stiff joints without the clicking style. You think they will ever change this?

I don’t play with my figures, but I do some photography and I do pose them on shelves. So I really like all the clicking joints.

I don’t mind them, but the tightness can be hit or miss. Some are still nice and fluid, while the bucks are like almost locked unless I really push.

It is going to take some getting used to - but I don't play with the figures (just pose them), so it may not be that bad.

I've noticed this too, my bubbly jericho is loose on one side almost compared to mattel with no clicks and the other is harder and almost locks into place with every click. I wonder if these could be wore out to make them more fluid. I honestly wasn't expecting clicking joints for these considering not many figures use it these days.

Much better than Mattel, I worry I’m gonna break half my WWE figures just trying to get them out of the box and pose them

They’re called ratchet joints and are used to help joints last longer and hold poses better. I like em.

Most figures I've had that had the ratchet joints usually had them in the legs as well as the shoulders so to only have it one spot is what's so different for myself.

I don't mind them to tbh though it feels weird especially I'm so use to Mattel and Jakks figures. But I'll get used to it.

Honestly I wish the legs worked the same way.
