>>10359140Maybe it's a combination of "Low" standards but I didn't really feel like the joint design was that bad myself. The hips are funky true, but wasn't something I took issue with, and yeah the thighs are thin, but these weren't really made to be "Sexy" figures and the thin thighs were probably to facilitate the leg connections. As for weight distribution, well, I'd chalk that up more to the base designs not being designed for actually existing in physical form to begin with.
That said, considering I only got Maya and P-Bandai version of Laura maybe I lucked out in getting "Good" ones? I didn't really have an issue with that rough of molding on either of those and certainly not the issue of Laura's forearms coming out super easily. My bigger issue was with the paint transfer and somewhat sloppy paint.
