    Mine can do a colossal ab crunch, but not in a good way. Might as well have a 5mm gap between its legs and torso. Its just a floppy mess and for almost $270 shipped I'd hoped tomy takara could have at least done some qc before releasing this overpriced crap. Put mine in jet mode and shoved it at the back of the cabinet so I don't have to look at it. This figure has left a very bitter taste in my mouth.

    Mine is in BBTS Pile Of Loot. And it will stay there until early next year. Hoping on a recall/fix for the loose waist if enough people complain during that time.

    Mine was from BBTS and while the hips were very slightly loose they were fine

    I haven't seen one review where the waist isn't floppy. A few reviewers just pick him up from below his nutsack to hide it, such as optibotimus, but you can clearly see the top half wobble back and forth whenever he bumps the figure. Its so loose you can almost swivel the torso 90 degrees left and right.

    Really? THIS is a review where the waist wasn't floppy Guess it's not a video though.

    But then maybe I lucked out. Like my Ramjet didn't have any issues with his shoulders that so many others seemed to cop

    The easy fix is to wrap a thread at the junction between waist and torso. I used the clear elastic band that held the arms and null ray in the box. You want the string to go under and around the metal pin, making it vitually invisible.

    Otherwise, heat the pin up with a soldering iron and pull it out. Replace it with a self tapping screw.

    Either way, we shouldn't have to modify a $250 toy.

    Hmm kinda fixed it by jamming a wad of paper in his butt (Small hole above peg) so at least he doesn't lean backwards anymore still this is very disapointing
