Okay.. so far from Hasbro I've bought three figures with two of the same feet (Avengers Captain America 4", Marvel Legends US Agent, and a Joe I can't remember).
My Retaliation Blue Cobra Commander had two of the same hand. My Marvel Legends SDCC X-Force 3-Pack Wolverines left forearm was assembled backwards. I had to cut his upper arm in half, reassemble the arm, and reglue it to fix it. My first Marvel Universe Steve Rogers came with his left legs shin cover nearly completely sideways. I consider this a QC because it's nearly impossible to fix because of the lower leg swivel. His joints were also very loose, especially in the torsto where he is like a windwill. He had yellow paint all of the side of his face as well, but I was able to remove that with careful scrapping. Let us not forget the recent 6" Iron Man Legends Bleeding Edge Iron Man with his upside left knee cap. I believe they are all like that? Mine is anyway. I've had numerous other problems over the years, mostly poor paint apps and loose joints.

I don't get too bent out of shape in terms of paint apps. I would be upset if something broke (looking at you DC collectibles Grundy) or had the wrong feet, hands or mold. I've really only had a couple issues.
XMO Deadpool leg was uber wobbly, the early Secret wars comic packs seemed to use the same calf mold for both legs and my future foundation Spidey's leg doesn't fit right and he doesn't stand without help.

Thanks for reminding me Hags, I had forgotten about the problems I've had with numerous Jim Lee Cyclops MU bodies.
Often, the neck peg is warped, the head sits crooked on the neck. I've tried heating it and never wants to stay straight. I consider this a QC problem, because who wants a figure whose head always looks like he's dancing?

I don't have many issues with my GI Joe figures...or marvel legends.
Marvel universe.. 2 left or 2 right hands-4 times. Bad paint apps..really too numerous to name...not even remotely resembling straight lines. derp eye...especially noticeable on MU wave 19/20/21 and Avengers wave 2 Avengers wave 2 have had 2 BWidow legs snap at hip. Bent calves on many figures too numerous to name..across all lines where the rubber bands are involved with any kind of factory figure posing in package. those are my biggest complaints I guess. I forgot to add I have had more than one MU Scarlet Witch with 2 left upper arms...you can tell at the elbow...
