Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

The other cheaper option might be a Shapeways add-on. I haven't looked, but I'm sure someone's made a part to keep that ankle stable.

Might be worth it, but I'm pretty happy with the figures already.

^New Star Wars product reveal/releases. Hype for the upcoming movie.

Dangit, my Wolfwire just broke on the headmaster cockpit. Is this a known issue? It's not just the hinge either, the whole yellow frame has bad stress marks. It's really brittle.

Does anyone have a loose one they're selling? Or I'll have to find one on sale at retail.

its a big known issue. I think that's part of the reason he was re-released in the last wave so customers can replace their broken ones. what a gimmick! glad I bought extras during the sale.

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

I just PO'ed a bunch of S.H.Figuarts Last Jedi figures from AA and HLJ and I already missed the all the bonus BB units..

Not too fond of Rey and Kylo's face sculpt, but all the troopers and those Elite Praetorian Guards are looking awesome. And Phasma gets a new shinny chrome armour instead of the satin silver armour for TFA.

Dangit, had I known I maybe wouldn't have bought him. This is worse than Generations Wreckgar. Do the new waves have any changes or are they just rereleasing a faulty product?

According to some re-sellers on Craigslist the new release fixed the issue. But based on my visit and observations on those Wolfwires they still have similar problems: you can see stress marks already there through the plastic cases and there has been no change in the design.

Re: BC Community Thread For Non-Sightings Chat

So, the summer sale is over. No more coupon can be used starting today. As a new TF collector, I would like to know how often and what kind of deal (30% off? half off? End of life clearance?) is excepted during normal seasons as well as holiday seasons?
