NECA Aliens vs Predator Series 7 Grid Action Figure - 7" Scale Collectible Toy for Fans, Display & Gaming Scenes

So, I have the same issue with every Neca aliens release. They LOOK absolutely STUNNING. Paint and sculpt are INCREDIBLE, and now with this never generation, the articulation is top notch too! Too good to be true right? YUP. Unfortunately, the figure suffers from the same soft, bendy plastic that neca (for whatever reason) keeps using on these figures. The plastic is simply too soft make solid joints out of, meaning the figure has a very hard time supporting its weight. On top of that, it appears that the first run of this figure has a defect in the mold that makes the hips very loose (see pics). I had to exchange the figure twice before getting one that was decent and even then, its still loose. I contacted Neca's customer service who was very helpful, and apparently already aware of the issue. While posing this figure to take the pictures for review, I was constantly have to pick it up because the legs would collapse under the figure weight. The issue with the figure really bother me because I LIKE the figure a lot, if not for the loose joints, it would absolutely incredible, but as it stands, it just kind of feels like a missed opportunity.In closing, the figure LOOKS amazing, but can be very frustrating to handle.My son loved this Grid!
