Please tell me this is true

I hope so, but like I said above, the arms are flopping about o nthe vid

I can't see this being normal

 

[marker2037]

Doesn't seem normal. Those shoulders are broken. Not gonna lie, this may make me cancel if more reports come in like this.

Or dislocated, wonder if you can somehow push them back in

First 2 vid reviews both mention them, multiple warnings in the instruction, seems like ht is fully aware of it

Hmm. Can see there's lots of different views on this figure. Right or wrong, I've ordered one from Timcent so I can see it in hand and decide for myself. I'm not the biggest Spider-Man fan, but as long as it looks like Spidey and is in a good action pose, it should do me just fine.

Poor you Peter, comic books, movie, or even figure, he's not as lucky as other orphan..
at $140 price tag, I'm happy with the Hot Toys version, in fact, I get Garfield HS,

Fragile shoulders? Oh great! So much for dynamic posing. Mine will stay in a museum pose if that's the case.

 

[Y4NK33 PL4N3T]

Fragile shoulders now?

Spidey is the king of dynamic poses. Geez Hot Toys.

Have you tried to get the points moved to another item?
Maybe you can pull a few strings since you're a big spender there

They hooked me up by canceling the HOA(7) and transferring my deposit to another PO. Unlikely.

just caught up on this thread so thought i better have my say , both my shouders are broken , and yes ive handled enough hot toys to know what broken shoulders feel like , there not some double jointed ttm , there fxxxed !!! . i knew one was broken when i filmed my first ht review other day , the other shoulder broke while i was filming all the comparison footage yesterday , i message ryno through facebook to tell him be extra careful with the shoulders , he's a good friend of mine and i knew he was waiting for his figure from customs and was gunna review it , so i let him know , even knowing that and handling with care his still broke same as mine . ive got a hot toys fail video uploading to explain it clearly and hope hot toys see it . on another note i see the arguements going on about ht vs medicom , just to get it straight i dont give two quick fire fxxks about which you buy if any , i made it clear that it was only my opinion !!!! and who by the way is oscorp ???? is he someone i might know from youtube or facebook ????

I was thinking about this earlier, everyone thought it was strange that there weren't dynamic poses, I can't blame him based off of the reviews, crikey

I'm still looking forward to it as it seems very colourful and I guess he's gonna have to go museum pose, but that may as well be a statue

I was gonna try and attempt the pose off of the box, I have Goblin stand that i'm not using yet, it would have been perfect fer it

Thanks for your input Clipper, watched all your reviews and for me personally i dont think either figure is good enough to go in my collection, both have things i really dont like HT's Spider-"boy" and Medicoms rubber gloves suit. Shame as i like the suit design but neither company pulled it off imo.

I've got the HT on pre-order with CollectableKitbash paid in full so will just sell it when it comes in. I'm sorry yours and Rynos figures had to break whilst you were reviewing them for us but thank you for reviewing this for us.

This shoulder business id quite worrying.

Ready for the vid

 

[Rorywan]

I don't quite understand the shoulder thing to be honest. It's the new slim TT right? It's not a new body.

I have two of these at home, I will check both later, I have one out one still boxed.
I had a similar issue with both Joker 2.0 and DX Luke. Before those two I had never broken a single part of a HT body, and this was just undressing them. The very thin wedge of plastic attached the entire arm/shoulder. Bend it the wrong way and snap.

 

[The Green Goblin]

This shoulder stuff has made me change my mind about this guy again. If they were aware it's shoulders were weak they should have delayed it again until they got it right. What a real scumbag move. I feel sorry for the guys that spent their rewards points on this guy, and will be getting a faulty figure, and the guys who have been waiting for something amazing to come out of HT.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

How many cases of broken shoulders are there?
