>>9326886This is a dumb thing to say. Plenty of old SHFs are still great, I still have many that I pose regularly and are in perfect condition/joint tightness. There are even some where I prefer the sculpts to their newer updates (like Ixa for example).
>>9326929I own multiples (like at least 10) of the NEXT molds. Some can be flawed, yes, because they have an odd problem where their leg plastic can get bendy, but all of their joints are otherwise tight. And on the ones that do not have this problem, it might be one of my favorite SHFs ever. It's just such a nice sculpt, with a great range of movement. Bandai really came out the gate strong with these, they were impressive at the time and I still find them impressive toys today.
