this is concerning since they might just topple each other off.I tried to take my OG built Hot Toys Elder Predator head off and the neck post crumbled. Plastic gets weak I guess…
it uses those old truetype with the ugly elbow joint. i am having problems removing his vest as the zip end is sewn and i cant move the arms upwards as the shirt is restricting it and i dont want to risk tearing the shirt.Plastic just gets weak/brittle overtime. My original HT Edward Scissorhands was fine one day and then I went to slightly change the pose and all of sudden the lower leg went limp. After taking it apart, turned out the knee joint basically disintegrated. Not sure what body that Wesker figure is on, but you can get cheap but sturdy knock offs of the old Hot Toys bodies. I got some for my my old Superman returns figures and the joints are nice and tight
no he was just standing straight like in promo pic but he wasnt on a stand. i cheked the figure doesnt seem to have visible damage from a drop and the crime scene does indicate the right leg gave way and tilted backwards onto other figures while kicking the 2 small figures infront. the broken part was still stuck between the pants. i have no idea how the remains of the small smashed figure fell onto the floor with a hand part at the opposite wall of the cabinet since the sliding door was closed.Was it in a dynamic pose? I can’t imagine it broke while being on the shelf.
A couple years ago my HT Dutch broke at the knee. A much older figure, but makes you wonder how long the plastic will last before it degrades..
