Not that I am aware of. I've had mine since about Feb/March, and not a single issue.

If you go into any thread and read the 1000 pages you might find 2 or 3 with some specific problem. You just don't know the conditions people keep them in, the temperatures, the poses etc etc. Then there's just pure bad luck.
Personally my PERS broke but that was after using it, it was obviously slightly unstable but it was just a freak event. I'd still buy this again if I had the chance.
Don't pass on this bad boy!

the oil if it does happen does it stop after a bit or will the suit disintergrate?
to repair the pers is a pretty easy fix...you must only to hope you have not broken the plastic mechanism inside...you should to open the back then pull off the small 4 screws ,then to adjust the eyes alignement with a screwdriver o similar, reput the lever in the hole inside and closing again..
I was moving my bruce'eyes..suddenely one eye is gone to new york and the other one to london
I've my bruce dx repaired in this way...

I hate to say it and it might not be anything major but there was a small spot of oil on the ab area of my Bats. Came right off with a cloth. Might have been there since I got it who knows. I do not pose my figures or take them out of the display case. They are not under any stressful climate conditions either. If these figures do continue to leak like the previous DX it just comes down to Hot Toys sh__ty figure design and we all need to light a fire under their a$$es.

Yeah, I went over the problem a few pages back in this thread. I can fix it easily but for now I've removed the system and kept his eye's forward. I can't ever see me selling him but if I do I'll fix it up. I had the same problem, one eye working, one eye not.

nobody knows... cause nobody have a complete suit desintegration on this figure
but, the comedian have a full desintegration of his suit... and the Dx 02 bats have some issues, but I haven't seen a desintegration of it, just one guy that uses a hair dryer to dry the oil... and it just melted

Went to damn Dragoncon last weekend and ended up buying 89 Keats Batman and classic Predator. I swore I would never buy another rubber suited figure. Hot Toys please make Rrubber suited figures with stronger joints!!!! I'm afraid to even pose Batman becuase every rubber suited figure has broken at the knees cept OC Batman but sold him in fear one of his joints would break. Oh and Classics Preds head kept popping off but fixed that with hot water.
Another attempt at photography:

Could someone please point me to the post/topic on how to remove the wire?

Got my detonator and bat remote/wii remote from ebay today. The first parts of my build. Got the whole figure minus the box for $165. Head and torso were the most expensive! Can anyone show some pics of how his belt can come on and off, so when all the pieces come in I can get him together without any problems! Thank you in advance!
Strange all these leaking bodies. Might wake up one morning and my Bats is just a gooey mess in my detolf 
Luckily I have had no problems with eaither my DX09 or DX02, fingers crossed.

Geeze, just had a dream that my DX09 was leaking, and then peeling when I started wiping it off.
Think I need a break from collecting.

LOL, I think you do need a break when you start dreaming about your collectibles

Looks like I missed the boat on this one, and it's sold out at Sideshow. There's a waitlist going, does anyone think they'll actually get more?
