Sneaky basterds!!
But the promos does state "collectible steel case"

The arms, as a consequence, become all but impossible to place in a fixed pose, and they ultimately always end up danglingly low, like limp weiners. On top of that, since they attach so loosely to the figure, the arms are likely to fall off easily.

This is truly inexcusable in a product costing $400.

Worse is that, even though the figure is made using plastic, overall, it's not bad at all.
It's just these damn arms that kill it for me.
Well that sound highly disappointing
I'm contemplating of returning mine even if I lose $9 for shipping cost :'(

Is this not worth its cost/value??
AUS$500 vs Quality (lack there of)....
