Where can you see them?

Got the Allspark for Bee.
I think it's a little small, but it changes size in the movie so whatever.
Digidemon
Tell me about it. lol
FACEBOX
I hear ya. I'd go for any carbot Decepticon at this point.
I think many of us are going through withdrawal symptoms. lol
Raiju
Man, that picture makes me sad that we're not getting a DOTM Soundwave to match Bee.

Will do, thanks.
FACEBOX
Try their customers service. They should be able to help.

Looked over the box inside out, it's not there. I guess it happened at the factory.
FACEBOX
That sucks.
These things are known to shed little bits and pieces.
Do you still have it, or did yours arrive without it?
yyh2046
Some luck… am I the only one who got a lemon after all this waiting?
yyh2046
Nice, thanks for the picture!
FACEBOX
Congratulations.
That piece on his theighs are the same way in the movies. I love how accurate this piece is

Just received mine, the posability alone beats most competitors, which makes me wonder, why don't others make statues like this?
One thing I noticed, this "#" shaped piece on each side of BB's thigh has 8 small holes, and the finish is polished and doesn't fit in with the surrounding area. It looks more like an exposed inner structure to me. Wonder if 3A originally planned to put a cover piece and then cancelled.
Digidemon
Thank you, sir!
Digidemon
Ha ha, yeah, there's just so much minute detail and kibble all over the piece, it is kinda difficult to suss out. One MUST appreciate the work that goes into these things. No easy task!
Again, I'm just giddy at how great he looks. I've bought many impressive figures (Hot Toys, etc.), but I don't think I've ever been more wowed by a figure. About the only thing that's "gripe-worthy" is the lack of rotation for his thumb (as has been mentioned before), but no biggie. Certainly still looks killer and doesn't take away from the aesthetic. Anyway, hope you figure out where the bits go. Even if it doesn't matter or affect the appearance, I know that would still bug the hell outta me! lol
FACEBOX
Glad to hear you got yours.

I had two small pieces broken off. One is off the pilar. I haven't bothered to fix it. I really don't care much about the pilar.
The second looks like it ought to be off Bee's body, but I've never managed to find a place missing a part. (and really if I can't tell something came off then it's not much to complain about)
Digidemon
Nothing really new to offer this thread, other than to say I just received mine and he's incredible. Just utterly gobsmacked at how great he looks!
Couldn't be happier, really.
Now, here's REALLY hoping they continue with these things.
Btw, I also had a couple of parts that popped off, but were easily plugged back in. Gluing would be best, but they seemed to stay in ok. One little piece of kibble on his calf and his left shoulder armour bit. Again, easily reattached.
Kick-ass work on this, 3A!! Can't wait to see the other 3!

Been messing around with this guy every day this entire week. He just looks way too awesome whenever I glance over at him on display. Can't decide on a pose either!
Hats off to 3A for really pulling a figure like this off. Super excited for the rest of the line. :clap

yea I finally got it off after loads of turning the joint and wiggling the forearm. seems like there's a slot that aligns the mushroom peg and keeps it in place while the swivel attached to the forearm is what provides the actual forearm swivel, but the slot in the hole isn't cut deep enough, so the forearm rotates around the mushroom connector freely instead of the forearm swivel, if that makes sense. either way, switching out forearms is a less than enjoyable experience for me.
anyone else with this groove issue I just tried to describe?
