just opened mine up. haven't noticed any qc issues at all yet. definitely a step up from the qc on the battle damaged getter 1. as a quick note, the inwards/outwards shoulder joint is much tighter than the original shin getter ( my old shin getter is completely floppy at those joints ) and can easy hold it's position now. they also redesigned the stand. instead of that hook design that destroys the paint job, there's a peg behind the butt flaps and an indent below the crotch that the stand connects to. the wings are tight enough to hold a pose, but loose enough that they don't feel like they'll break the way the original ones did. the only complaint i have is the forward/backward hip joints. the ratchet feels way too tight. overall, a great release.

Can't resist the temptation and finally opened up mine. Damn this is the sickest thing I've ever owned for this hobby.
By the way, are the hands hard to keep on for everyone? Everything else is so nice except that.

I got one from ebay 3 weeks ago. Well, the figure looks awesome, but major QC issue. 1st, upper right thigh came detached right out of the box. Contacted the seller, he wanted me to send it back to him. Calculated the shipping and it will cost me $70 to ship back, so I decided to ask for a partial refund instead. Anyways, fixed the leg by attaching a metal rod. Pulled, the right fist out to attach the fist with claws, the the claw fist doesn't stay on and the wrist joint became super losing. Wings... Dont mess with the wings, the left wing broke on me while spreading. So fewture never fixed the wings QC problem on this one. Luckily, I was able to super glue that. Now..he is just a very cool looking statue. I was soooo disappointed with this figure, that is why I am selling all of my unopened brand new fewture getters.

Most QC issues with fewture is mainly the paint which in Black Shin Getters case is f**king fantastic. Loose joints and all do appear at times but your broken part is just unlucky. The hands however I guess is a design flaw more than QC. They way the did the peg just makes no sense unless its just supposed to be a tight fit. This release is making me want to buy another copy and a Getter Dragon. Will entail me selling some of my DX Chogokin Valks though to get the cash for it.

Mine has misaligned wings socket and minor paint scratches...but everything is AWESOME!!! Everything is cool when you're part of a team! (Sorry, I had to do it). I am actually surprised there aren't more posts and photos for this beauty. I have mine displayed inside a Hobby Base clear box that I got from HLJ.com. I do own quite a few of them and they're excellent for keeping your figures dust free. It's just too bad that they require you to install many shelves in your room.

Sorry to bump this topic but can you check your black shin getters abdomen and see if there is a crack or something? Send me pics

I really need a Shin Getter 2 and 3 to finish this line. I know chances are slim by now but I keep my fingers crossed

I think S_Gokin has the recolor red version and not the black. I could be wrong.

My getter 2, original paint, all the paint in the upper torso has minor crack.
Clearly paint QC problem with Fewture on those years
