Boy, I don't think that video is going to make people want to buy the clear Faith Leader. That's too bad. I really dig clear plastic figures, but I wouldn't buy one from iGear.
Goodness me. The figure was breaking apart as he tried to carefully transform it. Scary stuff. I feel sorry for him too. What a major disappointment. I hope he can return that and get a better figure (although my hopes are not high).
That sucks about what happened. Will you be contacting igear to ask for a refund/replacement parts? Its worked for some people in the past.
While I am one of Tims biggest supporters, I think that the issue with the legs at least had to do with him not depressing the gas tanks before he pushed the legs back up. They act as a lock on the legs. The hands and the rest are a different story though, right out of the box damage, wtf? On such a high priced figure you would expect a little more in the way of quality. I hope that he(I haven't messaged Tim as of yet)gets a replacement at the very least.

WOW. Is this normal? Is this figure not recommended then? I was just considering pulling the trigger on getting one I found at a good price ($99.99). Not worth it?
