Best way to prevent rubber pieces from breaking is to not stretch it.

It also depends on how you handle your Figures.

I still have my Play Arts FF9 Zidane and Garnet
and my old Transformers Figures (RID Optimus Fire Truck)
i bought this Figure around 15 Years ago and he has no Breakage Issues,
no stress marks - Nothing, i doubt that he ever will have these Issues.

But Hot Toys on the other Side - Horrible.
I remember i had RE5 Sheva once, the rubber broke on her Arms and
on her Chest after around 2 Years.

Also many Report also that, after around 2 Years Hot Toys Figures Rubber starts to break.

I have cancelled my Infinity War Thanos Figure now.
It is not my Intention of seeing such a expensive Figure falling apart.

Hot Toys is just stupid; they just should use Silicon.
That would solve everything. Silicon is durable and lasts forever.

However, i have pre Ordered Star Wars 8 Rey
because i know there will be Phicen replacement Bodies.

How old are your Rey Figures? Then it seems that Hot Toys changed indeed some things.
I will stick with my Pre Order EP 8 Rey Training Outfit, but i have cancelled Infinity Thanos Figure.
Thanos has Rubber ALL over the Body, that is to expensive and to Dangerous for me.
