    Well then Ed, we just had our first transaction :)  was cheaper to buy from you with the shipping. would have worked our about the same but this way I get them sooner as you offer cheaper shipping :)

    got mine in today and they are FANTASTIC. only observation is that they sit a little snug on the wrist ball joint, making wrist rotation a bit tight. I actually prefer it this way anyway, so not a big deal. worth every cent if you own mp-22, and at ~$20 shipped, they are probably one of the best 3P bang for your buck upgrades out there on the market.

    ^ Glad to hear the quality on these sets are increasing. These sound like they are better than the Soundwave hands.

    If they've pulled the MP10 versions to anywhere near the quality of these then I'd be all over a white set for MP10U.

    Yup easily better.

    Have a set ordered. Really want MP10 Takara hands but they're sold out most places and I'm worried I'll get a shit set.

    The amount of character these MP22 hands command is amazing. I love MP22 anyway, but these will just make it all the more greater.

    I just got my set from BBTS. These are far and away the best hands I've ever played with. They fit perfectly, are perfectly articulated, and the plastic quality is outstanding. If you guys have a Magnus, hell, even if you don't have one, these are the shit. I would use these in a large custom build without hesitation.

    Here's my quick review and "installation" video. I've really enjoyed the KFC hands, and they keep getting better with every release! Probably the best thing I've seen come from KFC...which may be a little depressing...

    got mine from Toy Dojo, nice fast delivery, thanks Ed! Not had a chance to try them out yet, was waiting to get my Dai Stacks so I can compare the two molds together, but they do look great!

    Got this in today, its a nice little upgrade. Since this just snaps on and off from the ball joint, wonder why they included a screw driver.

    KFC must've bought a million of them to go with their other hands and just threw them in. I guess you can tighten it if the fingers get too loose or something.

    That screwdriver's not for you to use that's for him to hold. It's a makeshift weapon for the Zombotcalpyse.

    Got mine today and yes, they're bloody amazing. Didn't think I could love MP22 any more but I do. Wow, I so do.

    I picked these up from a local retailer and it was the version that comes disassembled and all attached to the sprue.

    I have been lazy and have had it sitting in the bag for a couple months, went to put the hands together and a little bit intimidated I'll mess up the assembly.

    I didn't get any instructions and there are so many tiny pieces, I'm not sure if I should start it at midnight on a Sunday night.

    Does anyone know if theirs came with instructions and if so, can you post a pic?

    Anyone have experience assembling these? I think all the fingers are the same except for the tip?

    Yea.. I know I'm dumb. Lol
