Even his ankles?

Not a ball joint - there is no rotation, they only move side to side

Yes... and mine is extremely tight there. Is that a mileage may very thing or is that a universal problem? Anyone else have issues with the ankles being too tight? In a way that's a good thing because it means the feet won't flop about in vehicle mode but they could be a little bit looser and still accomplish that.

Goddamn knee snapped on my son's today when up I was messing with it. Still in one piece and functional but now the knee flops all over when not standing at attention. My son is going to flip out when he notices it. Very shoddy QC work there.

It was always rather tight on each of the ones I got my kids but there had been no problems to date with less than normal use. My son just holds his without transforming or posing it and my daughter's is just sitting on a shelf.

Exactly what snapped on my son's, just on the other leg. He is irate and wants a new one. I don't want to give Hasbro the extra money because they assembled a shoddy product.
