Acid Rain is pretty solid. The OriToy figures sometimes had stiff ratchet knees which was easy to ham hand if you weren’t careful. The mechs were also kind of easy to break if the joints were too stiff but once you broke them in they were just fine. I have a Marine who’s knees are as smooth as a TA era figure because I just always play with him. A lot of people didn’t like the rubber hands but I prefer them. The only gumminess I’ve ever encountered is on a 1st Gen Sand Infantry guy who came like that second hand. Then came the Agurts Sand Infantry reissues which had less impressive paint aps overall and the paint on the hands were prone to flaking off. With a lot of handing this was always the case but it was quite noticeable on the reissue. Shortly afterwards they went to Toys Alliance which overall are great. The downside is that the hands are now plastic which means they stretch out with over use and I’ve even had two crack at the fingers. The paint aps are also less impressive and that dirty wash that’s a signature of the line rubs off super easily with TA figures. With overuse you’ll eventually wear them clean. All in all some of the finest figures in the scale and light years ahead of Joy Toy in terms of durability.
