The guys at Takara do most of the design work with Hasbro's input and suggestions.
But ultimately, the toys are made and boxed at the factories in China. And quality control would be their job there.
Besides, one toy with a missing chest piece out of at least five-thousand. You just drew the short straw that comes with buying toys. Sorry. |

Sorry. | Too bad I haven't heard anyone else complaining the same issue... maybe I need to wait a bit longer... but once I found another one to replace this defect. Peace. | |

not gonna return it or fuss, though a bit let down.
i don't really care about a projectile i might lose (and i have lost things in such odd ways.)
they fixed the over-tightened screw issue at the wing to body joint.
now i need to tighten it a smidge, lol.

So, it seems Redglide has questionable QC.
I'll have to be careful.  Rest in peace, Pickles. We'll never forget.

If anyone knows what the matching color is, please let us know. Otherwise, he might end up being my first silver sharpie dealie. | |

Join Date: Aug 2002 Posts: 231 Location: West New York News Credits: 2 | I'm not too surprised to hear about there being some QC issues with this batch after the minor problems I was having with Hardhead. I'm guessing this initial release might have some problems like the first wave when they were originally released (i.e Onslaught's faulty siren).
