    I'm hoping the experts here at TFW2005 can help me out with a problem. I just received MP-10 Prime from a reputable eBay seller and when I transformed it I discovered that one of the front tires was missing. The seller claims he never transformed it so it must have come from the factory this way but did offer a partial or full refund. I got it for a great price and nothing else is wrong with the figure so I don't want to return it, I just want a front tire. Has this happened to anyone else? Does anyone know where I might be able to find a front tire? Is the MP-10 front tire the same as any other figure's tires so I can broaden my search? Thanks in advance for your help.

    Thanks for the redirect. First post so I wasn't sure which forum I should post in.

    Maybe you, this guy and this guy could just share the costs for another one and then split up the parts you need? Would be what I'd do, anyway.

    Well I seem to have all wheels. So that is good. But now checking I noticed one rear tired has a similar badly cut tire as one of those other guys in that thread... ugh...

    Oh well. I guess it's good that 90% of the time I'll be displaying in Robot mode...
