Hearing about QC issues is...not reassuring, I took this Superman because I didn't have one and missed out on the blue one.
Is it a widespread issue or just some isolated issue?
I haven't actually heard of anyone else complaining, so it doesn't seem to be too common. I still get the feeling it's because they're reusing the old body, but my issue wasn't too difficult to fix. I wouldn't worry too much.
Unfortunately, I'll add my voice to the chorus of complaints. Left arm pops off any time it is moved. Cannot get it to snap in.

Sorry to hear that. I managed to fix mine by coating the peg with a few layers of water-based polyurethane, i.e. clear floor varnish. It's water-based so it won't damage the fig, but it's a bit glossy so try not to spill or put so much on that it runs. I've also heard of people using floor polish to achieve the same result.

Had to snap a quick pic. The likeness is amazing on the neutral head, and pretty good on the alternate head. Elbow articulation is really limited, as expected, but all the other articulation feels great. Really happy that the arm segments of the jacket are anchored well, and aren't loose/sliding and flopping up and down the arms. This seems executed about as well as it could have been.
