Bummer, but at least you were able to get a replacement. And yeah, that hip problem with the VI Jason was annoying and apparently widespread throughout the release. Did NECA ever address it, as far as you know?

am very glad to finally have a classic Jason in my collection

Everyone's gotta have one.

The bloody paint apps on the skin are pretty weak compared to how well NECA handles blood on other figures but it's not terrible either.

Yeah, I still maintain that the blood effects on this figure pale compared to how they were on the original release...looking at them both now, you can see that the gore on the original battle damaged version's head ends in a fine spray of blood, whereas on the new Ultimate figure it's large dollops that almost look like it was finger painted. Still, as you said, it's not terrible.

none of the joints on this part III figure are nearly as loose as part VI's hips (which in all fairness didn't really hurt that figure much since he's still standing fine).

Honestly, my Part VI hasn't fallen once. Aside from an ever-so-slight backwards lean, he stands just fine.

For this last picture I just thought about the fact that somehow becoming a rotting corpse actually fixed Jason's teeth.

By this point he had sequel money and could afford a good orthodontist.
