well the O ring break if they get worn for sure but i have a buch of moc figs like the 6packs and the spytroops to now and non of them broke. now on my loose figs some have as the invorment they are has alot to do with how fast they go.
i love the oring and wish the 25 anny had them. i know that the 25 anny figs will last alot longer then the oring no mater moc or lose but the O ring gives them more movement. |

I'm kinda glad the new figs lack the o ring though, to be honest.

My original 1982 straight-arm Scarlett went 24 1/2 years without busting her O-Ring.........
And as for the rest.......only now are some of them starting to show signs of breaking and/or break....... God Bless the O-Ring

True...I would never buy an AFA Joe because of the O-Ring at a high cost but if the price was reasonable (in my case, reasonably low), I wouldn't mind.
As for a lot of my Joe's, I purchase O-ring lots and replaced everyone's O-rings, so they would have that tight fit and not loose. Unfortunately, I own too many Joe's with broken t-crotches and thumbs...which was more or less, much more a problem for me than the o-ring.
