    Anybody know if there is anywhere online that does replace/spare parts for these at all.

    Just really think I'm not going to get my missing combiner hands...

    Starting to feel like I have wasted a large amount of money.....

    I really do want to pick up the v2 box set but no one domestically has it in stock. Also, no one seems to know when they will be getting it in. TCP doesn't even have it listed as they have no real idea when they'll get more. Sucks.

    I kept seeing August on some sites. I've bugged a couple of them and they all don't know when a restock will happen :(

    Wow, there's a new Upload File button? Cool. Let's see if this works ... I have this pic (attached) of someone's Constructor with a neat mistransformation that gives the combined mode much bigger lats.

    Would anyone here know how to do the mistransform? While I cannot remember the user name of the TFW member who posted the pic, I remember watching a Youtube video showing his simple yet ingenious method. I can't remember which thread all the info was posted in though.

    I don't have easy access to my Constructor to try and figure it out myself, but I'm hoping that someone here knows how and can share for reference/posterity.

    Just don't tuck in Long Haul's arms and use them to fill out the lats. The arms are used to peg the torso to the waist/hips so you'll lose some stability.

    Hey guys, Hany over at Agabyss.com just got more gift sets in stock. If you are concerned and need a US seller that's easy to contact, check it out.

    That's pretty tempting, but I don't think I wanna play the switcheroo game if I already have mine as a paid pre-order with another vendor. Maybe this is a sign that they are slowly trickling into the US again? Not saying I don't appreciate the post! I'm sure plenty of us in this thread do!

    No worries, just getting it out there for people who are looking for one, not trying to step on anyone's toes.

    Well that does suck, considering I've been in replacement-figure limbo all summer. 3-4 emails (starting the week I received it) plus a phone call, nothing.

    Yeeeeah. You and me both. I had some of the upgrade parts pre-ordered and paid for awhile now.

    Has anyone done a review comparison between the v1 and v2 sets? I'm considering going in on the v2, but don't know what exactly has improved or gotten worse.

    I found this video. He notes some main differences such as the kit arriving with the G1 head (i don't think it comes with the original) as well as lat fillers and heels. He also makes a point of saying they fixed the knee connector that people usually had to shave down.
