Not a happy camper (MP Buzzsaw)

That sounds so scary and damn does it suck. I must admit that the birds where the true mavel's of this set.


Glad I opened my Japanese version and will keep my Hasbro version miSb.

Lots of people with the takara mold had this issue too.

Silicone Lube. Please tell me you work with electronics, right?

But yeah, that actually sounds like a good idea. Shouldn't attract dust or anything.

on a similar but not so similar topic...
does anyone notice the visor on soundwave has two faintly painted circles? (seems they are more like painted marks)

Sorry I dont have pictures atm.. but those who have the "yellow circles" on the visor will clearly know what I mean

there is 3 steps that they do

1 - they will send you a prepaid return box and mail you out another
2 - mail back Credit you what you paid for it
3 - you keep the one you have and they send you a new toy **

Har har. No I don't work with electronics, but a while ago I went and bought a spray can of silicone lubricant to use on toys. You don't want to use lubes like WD-40 because they are petroleum based and could cause the plastic to degrade.

Does anyone know what's causing the breakage? Are the joints just tight or is there maybe some excess plastic, like flashing, in there that's causing resistance?

Or 4 - they will tell you to send it in and because it's an exclusive item they might not have any and will just send you a similarly priced equivalent.

Yup, this is more likely to happen.
I contacted Hasbro b/c my HA Jazz was missing a piece and they ended up sending me 2 sets of Kreo toys that I have absolutely no interest.
