Can confirm, did it with my Putotyra. Seems to be the most common QC issue across all Figuarts honestly. At least it's not a difficult thing to fix, just somewhat annoying until you do.

I have a hand full of Figuarts that I should glue the kneecaps on, but haven't bothered to do it to any of them. The latest culprit is Burning Agito. The right side kneecap won't stay in for anything.

The surface is a sheet of glass painted black on the underside. The background actually doesn't matter as your settings will make the background completely black regardless, though I have a roll of black paper as my backdrop.

Exactly. Definitely what I'm going to do. I was just pointing out a flaw with my figure. Nothing worth losing sleep over though.

So I have to say, I am not a fan of this figure...had one foot pop off a few times, and plugging in that blasted scarf...it STILL won't stay in, and it is showing stress marks. The plastic feels lighter than all my other Riders, save maybe Shadow Moon...he just feels...rushed..compared to the others...

Did they ever make A Den-O strike form in the shocaku henshin line?
