My Green Goblin and Hobgoblin from series 1 have exactly one leg position that doesn't end in limb loss and won't go on their gliders. Sunfire from series 2 lost his arm at the shoulder coming out of the package and the joint is stretch out and won't go back on. Most of the figures with chest articulation are beginning to slouch. Why does this toy line fall apart when related toylines (GI Joe, Star Wars, and even Indiana Jones) have sturdy joints and hard plastic limbs?
Haha I like this question because my GG and HB are exactly the same way.


FIGURE STANDS!!!! I'm dying to know

Something along the lines of....

It was stated in last year's Q and A that Hasbro was going to release stands for SHIELD series MU figures. Has there been any talk on where this may be released (exclusive online?) and what design they would take after (would you guys give out an entire list of figures made and X amount of stands?)
