Just recently I successfully got Kazooie into Gmod with all her flexes done at about 90%. the missing 10% are the flexes that got busted along the way.
how it should look.

Any ideas on how to fix them?

I'm not sure if this is the cause, but when I first started learning how to do flexes, I found out that they can only go a certain distance before the flex 'breaks' itself and fails to work. The flex would only go a fraction of the distance it needed to. When I toned down the flex past a specific point, it started going the full length of the flex.
Long story short: try making the morphs smaller. If you need to bump them up, you can use the multiplier in GMOD, anyway.
multiplier? Explain.
Also what is the range anyway?

There's a multiplier in GMOD - I'm not sure if it's in the SDK faceposer - that multiplies how many times the flex is applied. 0 would do nothing, 1 would be normal, 2 would double the effect, etc, up to 10.
The range is just saying how much of that particular flex you want to use. 0 to 1 is 0% to 100% of that frame of animation. If you did 0 to .5, it'd only go halfway. I don't remember if you could go above 1, though, so you could try that.
When you were exporting the VTAs, was the frame number on 10?
I don't think so.
Last time it wasn't, but I still got the same result.

I did get the back feathers fixed though, and the broken cartoonish jaw drop sort of works like this.
