When it comes to MAFEX and their QC issues it really depends on the figure.
For example, with their Shazam figure, his arms love to pop off due to over-engineering, but when it comes to most of their Spider-Man figures, they're swell.
Two things I always recommend with their figures though:
Put some shock oil on the hip joints. Every since their Deadpool figure, alot of their figs use leg joints that are way too tight and thus can snap the peg off if you're not careful. Their Superman figure is the latest one to have this issue.
Before you start playing with any of their figures, submerge the figure in warm(NOT hot or boiling) water for about a solid minute and then let it dry(keeping any cloth parts out of the water of course). This is actually something I recommend for figures in general, and has allowed me to avoid a ton of breaks that seem to happen to other people.
It should also be noted that despite a ton of stigma you'll read online, MAFEX's' QC has improved greatly over time. Typically it is just the hip joints that you need to watch out for, which is a huge improvement over the early days where their figures were active hand grenades.
