Yikes! Is that a metal pin in the chest running through the shoulders? Something tells me they goofed with the diameter.

I am going to guess this is caused by people attempting to rotate the chest piece before they completely pull it either way. The first time I transformed mine, I almost did the same thing thinking it should be moving. Luckily I stopped and pull it out the rest of the way. Mine doesn't have any lose joints or anything though.
Nemesis is completely amazing. This is my 1st time messing with this mould and I get why everyone is so high on it. Just went back and rewatched Armada episode 43 again and he is perfect looking. Been trying to get some good poses running on all fours and its kinda tough, lol. Really need better head/neck articulation, looking up waay more is needed( but I say that about most Transformers these days). I still go back to Animated Wasp, all figures should have at least that much head articulation. Opening hands would help a lot as well.

I'm hearing the issue is that people aren't pulling the chest piece out far enough before flipping it over. Some are suggesting using a spudger the first few times.

Only the highest quality, premium stuff for AUTHENTIC Transformers branded products.
Soon we'll be to a point where KOs have better quality and less hollowness too.

I'm quick to point to user error/skill issues with these scenarios, but after getting mine in hand I think that bracket part is generally way too tight and needs some sanding. In the process of taking mine apart so I can get in there and improve the tolerances. The shoulder pin is a pain in the neck to get out and has to be removed for this, but it isn't the cause of the issue, best I can tell.chuckdawg1999 wrote:I'm hearing the issue is that people aren't pulling the chest piece out far enough before flipping it over.

Let us know how it goes, regardless I'm not touching this set with a 10ft pole. Maybe on sale just for the Nemessis Prime mold, but this isn't even the right version of the Star Saber set for Nemessis.
