So I've picked up a few of these figures and to me it seems there is a big difference in plastic quality on these figures. Anyone else think the same?
(I apologize if this has already been discussed.) |

eco friendly plastic is an oxymoron.

The toy line has taken a downturn overall. When I picked up the Capt. America action figures last year, I was very disappointed that, while assembled like the Joes and with accessories that would fit the Joes, the plastic was much cheaper. The movie version of the figure has a torn shoulder because the soft plastic wouldn't move right. I've seen the pics and reviews of the new Joe vehicles and was disappointed with the "half-part" look of the missles, and sometimes even parts of the vehicles look that way.

As much as I love the figure, one of my complaints is the Joe Troopers shitty gummy-like lower legs...

Just opened my first retaliation toys today and noticed the inferior plastic. They feel like they’re made from rubber rather than plastic. It sucks. :o(
