    Hear hear! Totally agree. My Gundog aint going anywhere. I am inerested in tge official so I can have both the toon version (Gundog 2N) and the darker toy version (which is inevitable ). My gundog aint going nowhere!

    Toy Gundog had the shoulder problem, right?
    If they make a reissue I'll probably get him... Official and Willis are very good, almost perfect, but a bit too boring... The toy references make Hound more appealing...

    We heard you the first time.

    The shoulder problem is a super easy fix. Just heat the end of a screwdriver or small thin metal rod and hold it against the metal rivet in the shoulder for about one minute. Then carefully start moving the shoulder.

    People care too much about this accuracy and that accuracy . I want a bot that looks good and gundog is the best looking MP hound.

    If not for gundog I wouldn't even consider either the official or fanstoys versions. They try too hard to be accurate and so lose the heroic look.

    Is the toon version of this guy still readily available anywhere for a reasonable sum?

    None of these are confirmed, unfortunately. MT did these mock-ups as part of the retro-themed packaging of Maestro (their G2 Jazz). They are trying to crowdfund Solarstorm, but as far as we know, none of the others are actively being considered.

    Funny thing is, before the announcement of the HasTak version, I would have jumped at the chance to do this. I mentioned earlier how happy I've been with Gundog, and I still feel that way. Having said that, a couple of months after having him and coveting the 2y version, I realized that I chose the wrong version when I got my 2N. Now I think I'll keep my 2N version and wait for the inevitable HasTen toy version.

    so I had no patience and did a thing. Just ordered the 2y version, so it'll hopefully be here relatively soon.

    Really looking forward to it, though I really hate chrome.


    Maybe someone out there with the 2n version would prefer chrome and wouldn't mind trading all the chromed parts for non chromed parts? Offer is open if anyone's interested.

    Edit: for those with this figure, how are the mirrors and chrome chest piece attached? Screws?
