Just picked this one up from BBTS. Opened the tank first, whose name is Blackflash. It came in a simple ziplock bag, with an instruction sheet, and a plastic clamshell containing the cassette, 4 chromed weapons, and a purple case. The instructions are general instructions for the mold and label it as Slam Tank. The transformation is pretty original. Makes a nice tank, if a bit bendy (the price of ball joints), but it holds in place once you straighten it. The weapons don't feel like they want to hold it and will pop out if you pose it, but what is there to pose on a tank?
I had them ship it on BBTS the day it dropped in my POL. I didn't know other people didn't have it. I know other people have gotten the red and blue version already. Was I the only one who has the black one yet?
@Scaleface. When you say the weapons pop out, does that mean you can't swing things around when you have the weapons plug in? How's the combined mode?
Out of 300 made, I think you are the only one with that right now. I got mine from TFS and they have the colored version in stock but not the black.
BBTS has had it in stock for about a week now. CST-05B Slamtank & CST-06B Jetdancer - Airdancer Set - Third Party Transforming Toys & Accessories Keiths Fantasy Club
Got my colored ones from BBTS a few days ago. Damn leg broke off at the stupidly tiny plastic pin holding it on. I'm not going to bother with a return since the next one may break too, I can fix it myself with a small nail. These feel a lot cheaper than the last tapes they put out, like they were rushed. A lot of flash and parts that don't fit quite right.
Keith already said he's shipping out replacement parts to the stores, made of stronger plastic. So contact them and maybe they will ship the replacement part to you.
I don't know which part KFC is wanting to replace. Just got mine, and most of the joints have stress marks just from one transformation; I can't even guess which one is going to snap first. I get that small pieces mean small joints, but these really just feel flimsy and fragile. I guess if it breaks, it breaks. Edit: Aaaannnnddd the winner is: right leg joint! Yep, one transformation, just to combine him and leave him on the shelf, and couldn't even get that far. It seems that the plastic is too gummy; it catches on the chrome joint. It feels like it's a nice, smooth rotation, but in reality, it's actually just twisting off. I'll try to get a replacement piece, but overall, I'm not terribly excited about owning a transforming toy that's too fragile to transform.
For those with the Black Set, on the plane one, is there a distortion in the chrome under the midsection plate? Mine on the underside has a black line going down it like the Chrome ran out or something at that area or something else. I'll take a picture tommorow and post. Was just wondering if this was normal or if I should email BBTS for a replacement piece.
Put me down as another person who lost a Jet Dancer right leg on the first transformation to combined mode. I left them a message on Facebook and sent BBTS an email. We'll see what happens.
got my set yesterday. while trying to flip down the platform that the head is attached to on Slam Tank the small peg holding the head on snapped and the head went flying. After that I didn't even open Jet Dancer. I'll be contacting KFC later today. I hope they will send a replacement….
this is what I got from TFSource: We are sorry to hear of the issue with your figure. Unfortunately at this time we don’t have enough stock on hand to have you purchase a replacement piece. I also do not know when, or if we will get a restock of this figure. I would suggest either getting in contact with KFC to see if you can get a replacement part, or continue to watch our site to see if we get a restock. We are sorry we were unable to resolve this issue for you at this time. Thank You and Best regards, Rob TFSource - Service Haven't contacted KFC yet. Will do tonight probably...
I got my normal colored set today. Stress marks all over Jet Dancer before I even opened the plastic clamshell, Slam Tank had a crack upon opening the box. The gun on slam tank cracked when I popped the ball jointed part into it. Looks like KFC is not improving the QC on these molds...

I'm pretty sure nothing will come out of China now that's it's New Year there. I've seen very little online activity from them now. Factories are closed, the email is closed. It's dead for a week.
