Encore#23 Fortress Max Stress marks??

[astrana]

I heard there are a lot of stress mark or Q/C issue on this baby. I checked mine, only part I found is on the red launcher (what ever you call that) on the left ramp.

According to the local store owner, a local cybertron.ca member has two left legs on Cerebros.

Anyone else has any issues?

Don't say that. Mines in the mail. :s

My Spike arm is at an angle (when viewed top down)...it's not right that's for sure.

Otherwise I inspected everything at least the from the front and the ramps is OK.

Quite the box on this thing!

Mine so far seems fine.

Yea i got that too, also the paint on the metal of the ramp/missile thing(left leg) is very fragile. Also there's a small scratch on the green glass at the top of the chest. But these are small issues. The figure is great! I was worried the plastic might feel a bit cheap, but all's well. Love the diecast!

Spike is definitely sub par when compared to the original one. Other than the joints being very tight (Fort Max Legs and City Ramps), I'm very happy with mine.
Checked the bags and have all the parts and I do not see any stress marks.

I had a bit of stress, no marks though. I had Fort Max in city mode and noticed the elevator wasn't going all the way to the top. Turns out the spring that helps to push the ramp button back in place wasn't set where it should be and blocking the elevator from raising. This also prevented the ramp from tilting. So I removed the 8 screws on back, popped the back off, and put the spring in its correct place. Lining everything back up was a bit tricky, but it is back together. Now the elevator and ramp work as they were meant to.

yeah, my elevator is having slight issue as well, it doesn't go down smooth as it should be, not sure if it is common.

I did not have any problem with Spike thou

The body and accessories on mine are top notch. I will say that Spike and Cerebros feel a little cheap though. They have that rough soft plastic feel.
