I kinda miss that, actually.
If you were as ham handed as I am, you wouldn't. Many snapped pieces and frustration.
I like futzing but I am horrible at assembly.

Which is why there are Premium Formats.
Exactly. I don't "play" with my figures. I pick a pose for them and then display them on a shelf. Its obvious that futzing is a labor of love for a lot of you (and it certainly shows with KD's figures) but to me its "work" that I don't look forward to.

I play with dolls
I, too, futz figures out of necessity, not because I like doing it. But I do like the option of changing up a look on the display. In that sense, I don't agree that disliking futzing necessarily means you should prefer PFs.

Do not subscribe to this idea. They're "action figures" and are meant to be futzed. I don't get why you would want to pick them up vs. dios, PFs, and even the 3 3/4" figures Hasbro's pumping out that don't need this.

Khev, do you sweat while futzing?

I agree. It's borning to take a figure out of the box and just put him on the shelf as is.

Sometimes.
I still remember getting the original Storm Shadow in 1984 and breaking his bowstring in two when I tried to wrestle the bow out of his hand the literal day I got him. Freaking PTSD kicks in to this day. I hate futzing.

Actually, sold mine off and never regretted it.

Changing up the poses is what makes 1/6 figures so addicting to me as it feels like my collection is never stagnant. I would get bored of statues in a week.

Oh God, ____ that, I dont.
I still have nightmares of putting the first wave of AVP predators together.
That wasn't futzing, that was freaking model building, and it sucked.

^^^ LOVE me some models!!!! 
Stress on the level of clipping wires on a live bomb (cut to close-up of sweat on brow with a heartbeat voice-over, hands shaking) kind of takes the fun out of setting up some of the 12 inchers.

It wouldn't have been all that bad, but the body nets didn't fit, arm and leg joints didn't fit together, heads where near impossible to get on.
That was not fun. It was like putting poorly made Wal Mart furniture together.
