Those cables on the elbow have always been an issue for Boba Fett action figures--they're done in a way that either restricts arm movement or leads to breakage.

Mafex and Figuarts are going for different things. Mafex is going for screen accuracy, sacrificing sturdiness. Figuarts is going for a more playable action figure, sacrificing screen accuracy. I don't play with my figures, but I also want to be able to pose them without worrying about snapping things or pulling cables out of slots. Also, I prefer the way the Figuarts shoulder armor actually rotates with the shoulders, instead of just hanging off the torso. The way Bandai handled the design is ideal (for me, anyway).

I love the Jedi Boba Fett, but I passed on Mafex multiple times, even at discount prices, after watching the reviews.
