Ever since Tamashi nations have been producing figures in Vietnam, there have been reported Qc issues all over the place. For my copy of krillin however, that doesn't appear to be present. The Articulation functions as intended and has lots of fantastic range. The facial expressions are awesome, but I only wish he came with a laughing face like the 1.0 version did. Not a big problem however. One other nitpick is the shininess of the skin tone. This has been a reoccurring problem with a lot of Tamashi nations' figures. We know they can do better then this because they've shown us. Overall however, it's a really solid figure, and I recommend picking it up regardless. Especially if you don't have the 1.0
