Supposedly the fix we did ourselves is just what Hasbro did with these 'fixed' Primes, too. I haven't gotten one yet, they claimed I would but I figure I will wait and see. Mine is working, though I do keep an eye on the ab section. Thing is, it's a great set, undermined by having the QC issue happen at the main junction of the central core of the whole thing.

Reissue the damned Encore already. It cannot have been worse than this.
Dang it, I still need to check mine to see about damage...
Best to open it up first before trying to slide it, as otherwise it can sometimes crack his abs on the first try. I also on my own removed (carefully) the plastic box ratchet in the waist bend, and the spring ratchets in the hips, both of which weren't needed but were scary tight. Not helped by the pelvis being the metal-swirl plastic sort that doesn't handle stress well. I can always reinstall them later if it was too paranoid, but given other issues I've seen...
Ugh...me too.
