I did notice some floppiness to him - an elbow joint is loose, and his chest / abdomen joint is floppier than I would like.
So naturally, I went off to Google, which led me here to this thread. Love the site! I thought I would add a helpful video I found after doing some more Youtube searching. There are a lot of solutions in this video, and this guy has a lot of other good ideas in his other videos. I just thought this might be helpful to someone.
I intend to try to tighten up Snakes Eyes a bit using some of these methods, and I will report back how it worked. Looking forward to learning more about the site and you all.

Welcome to the madness!
The problem is widely noted as a big issue for...maybe half the initial shipment of that Snake Eyes. Some other figures have had it too, but generally a smaller percentage of them and to a lesser extent. Many of them also have a problem with the thigh sheath for the knife, where it’s molded wrong and you can only get the knife in halfway or so.
The same figure was originally released a couple months earlier (Mar 2020 or so?) and had neither issue, and the mold has also been used successfully for the Red Ninja, so it seems like it was just one big batch that had the problem. Sucks that yours does.
