Action Figure Sideshow Jason Voorhees review

We're seeing a lot more horror related 1/6th figures lately - I've looked at Ash, Beetlejuice, and Pinhead in just the last few weeks. Tonight I'm adding to the list with a review of the new Sideshow Jason -

I like the figure but weapons not so great. I gave him the ax and machete from shrunken head studio's. they fit hands better, are better weathered.

Several, myself included, have noticed the left boot actually has a broken socket in the boot itself. That's why it won't stay on well. And my Jason was even missing an entire chevron (left cheek). So the QC on this guy absolutely sucked if crooked/missing chevrons and broken joints made it thru. An otherwise amazing figure, but those are to very important things that should have never gotten overlooked for the price point.

I wondered why the boot comes off. Mine fell off right out of clamshell.

I don't think it's broken. Both sockets look the same on mine.

Maybe the socket on left boot is loose or big. And peg just slips out. I'll put some poster tack in mine

Yup, just not well made.

Mine is definitely broken. There is a good chunk of the side of the socket missing. With it being so prevalent, it might have just been cast that way. Again, don't know how that made it past inspections.

So, it's not like the right socket? I looked at the picture posted a few pages back on the Jason thread and it didn't look broken although the poster said it was broken.

No, completely different. I don't know how they could have gotten one right and the other just so wrong.

Mine's definitely not broken - it pops into the socket, just doesn't stay. It's possible the socket is badly formed though, perhaps too shallow?

Sound like typical SSC "passed QC inspection" criteria to me

I the some blu tac in the boot and haven't had a issue since.

I looked yes it may not be broken as not fully formed when molding. But the poster tack is working out nice

If someone has a moment to take a straight on close up pic of their straight Chevron I could use it to convince SS their is an issue with placement......

Sounds like they are being stupid about it.

My left boot like pops off with a single touch list most of yours. I mean should we have to alter it ourselves for it to stay in place. I also have a weak right arm. What would sideshow usually do if its sent back?

Just send you another with the same problem until there sold out

Well they might have one more to sell when I return it......Chevs should be dead center for this price point.
