You're right--the 3-click system is nothing at all compared to LEGO's 4-click

The only way that could be true is if the model was put together incorrectly,
it was set on an uneven surface, or if gravity is unpredictable in your
building area. I have about twelve of those Blok-Bots models, and they're all
poseable in a range of configurations. YMMV, of course, but the claim that the
limbs fall off or the models won't stand is simply inconsistent with my
experience.
