    I paid way too much for the SDCC version and absolutely hated it, until I threw the instructions out the window and started from scratch:

    Now he's earned a place in my collection.

    Even looks good from behind!

    I absolutely love the SDCC one.
    And it makes me mad how lately everybody hates it, when people used to bitch about it being a convention exclusive.

    well got my Dudicus and he is really sweet

    except brawl is missing 2 screws for the combiner joint resulting in it being loose. so he can not hold him self up in arm mode and as a knee he just allows Dudicus to fall over :( 

    going to see if i can find a retail one and take the screws out of it as it does not hurt it as an individual bot or tank

    yup the G2 box set

    looks like they where just missed when the figure was assembled so a QC issue. the other 4 are perfect no paint issues or stress marks on them after transforming them a few times

    here are the 2 screws that are missing

    I agree. While they're still in stock you should let them handle replacing it for you. Since it's defective I'm pretty sure BBTS will pay for the return shipping. Sometimes they're willing to send just parts so maybe they can mail you a couple screws after seeing your pic.

    I got my Dudicus and while the set is far from perfect its a damn fun set. Just hate using Blastoff as an arm.
