    Ohh yes... Mine was so tight I thought I was going to snap his leg off!

    I already snapped off the gun on Fort Max leg but luckily it snaps back on easily...

    The "Cerebros" of my Grand Maximus has really stiff legs (almost feels like it will break), so at least they made the reissue authentic to Gen1.

    The other thing i have noticed is the sticker sheet isnt centred properly so the stickers are off.

    i find it concerning to hear so many QC issues already for something most of us paid decent money for.
    Mine hasnt even shipped yet and i am not happy now

    I wouldn't jump the gun until you've actually received yours. A little bit of smudged paint and overly tight joints isn't exactly the end of the world. Even vintage G1 had minor defects.

    My vintage G1 Cerebros does too. I think that's just how the mold design and engineering is.

    Fort Max as a whole is also pretty damn stiff for a toy that size. I don't see a kid easily being able to move his arms and legs or transforming it without putting the whole weight of his body but that's just how the vintage is. I would imagine that the reissue would be a little easier to move.
