You know my problem with Figuarts? It's the same problem I have with 'Masterpiece' Transformers. Bandai claims these are the pinicle of toy design. A new standard, as the box says. If you're going to claim that, or call your toy 'Masterpiece', every single one had better be damn perfect when it rolls off the line. You can't call something a 'New Standard' and then do things like we see. Not matching colors, loose joints, breakage. It just shouldn't happen.
The only perfection is imperfection. To expect every toy to be 100% problem free is impossible. The difference between Figuarts and say Masters of the Universe Classics is that only 4% of the Figuarts have issues. MOTUC have about 60% and that is a small produced line.
Loose joints suck, but there is no way to truly fix this. It just happens. I haven't had problems with anything breaking, but I do know people who have with the D-Arts line. When a line is mass produced on a retail scale, there are going to be defects. It sucks, but again, that is just the way it is.
Bandai could check 500 Figuarts before they were packaged up and there is no guarantee that it is not going to be number 501 that is a defect.
