I Don't Like the New Plastic

[PFunk]

And neither does my son. The figs don't hold their gear in their hands for crap.

[Kwobubba]

Yeah I agree. These are definitely a step down

[Rainbow Viper]

I'm not a big fan of it either. Does anyone know if the sdcc jinx figs will be sporting this new plastic? I will be upset if she does.

Welcome to the club! A little bird told me that if you cuss out a customer service rep at hasbro they will fix any problem you have. Don't tell anyone else, it'll be our secret.

[musashi3000gt]

They dont hold thier gear in thier hands? Which figure(s) are you having this problem with? So far I've bought almost every single except for CC and Zartan and I've yet to see a problem.

Unless your talking about the huge missle launchers but thats not exclussive to this line. Thats always been an issue.

[whitefox360]

How funny would it be if he only had cc and zartan?

[Xerofall]

How funny would it be if he only had cc and zartan?

Haha!

[Gatchaman]

Yes Jinx is made from the same new crappy plastic although she doesn't seem to have issues holding her weapons like the red ninja's do.

[GI Flow]

I honestly don't mind the new plastic, better than broken thumbs and crotches.

[NAJA EMPIRE]

new plastic is awful

[GI Flow]

I still stand by my opinion, except with weapons, pliable plastic for weapons is wack, especially swords.

I have to agree that the new formula they are using is defintely sub par compared to past figures. The Joe troopers are already discolored in package. Lots of toys i see in stores have this issue especially the all white clone troopers ont he cintage cards...the helmets are already that weird yellowy kinda color. I just dont buy em.
