    The Kfc hands I installed him, and Cordon (my only available Mp at this time) say its not the case.

    He can hold it better with the kfc hands, but it still flops around. Plus the wrists are extremely floppy with those, requiring some tape or something to fix em.

    Ebay:
    I would file via Paypal. Two months is WAAAY too long to be waiting for a product that hasn't even moved. Plus, if you hit or passed the promise date via ebay's delivery time frame, you should definitely file and that will be the reason for opening a case on the seller, if you go the ebay route.

    Also, there is a China list on TFW2005. I'm sure you'll see a lot of posts pointing to it but my gauge is if the seller has above 2 or 3K feedback. The other ones, even if they are on the good list (lessor feedback then 2K) are only safe if you get those sellers early before they go scam on you. Happened to me twice but TBH, there is no sure proof way of knowing if that seller is good or not. Your rolling dice either way and just have to watch the tracking to see what happens.

    Check and make sure the seller is still a seller. A lot of times they will sell some stuff and then cancel their account

    Then the KFC hands might be faulty as well. Idk, i'm just speaking from my experience of giving his gun to other MP's (MP-10,ratchet,megatron) and they all seem to hold his gun fine.

    Looks like the seller has 83% positive feedback (not necessarily good) and has one positive review that was only made a week ago (definitely not good). If you can post a link to the sellers thread that'd be helpful. I've always had good interaction with Ebay getting a return on my money, so I'll wait for the delivery date to pass. As for a reputable place to get a KO MP 10 trailer, any suggestions?

    Lifelong eBay rule to stay away from anyone with sub 97% reviews.

    Hope it smooths out and you find a trailer somewhere!

    Had an issue like this with a KO Ironhide and Ratchet I ordered in March. Got a tracking number, then it sat in China for over a month...never received anything...seller cancelled his account.
    I got a partial refund from eBay but still fighting to get the balance.
    ...as was said ^^^, be wary of feedback under 97.

    Seems a bit too much of a coincidence. The hands can hold all other weapons just fine.

    Seeing the transformation videos of the Siege figures just makes me want OSKOs even more. Especially Springer. I'm afraid the Hasbro version will be too small for my liking.

    I picked him and his wave mates a year ago or so the last time they surfaced, I feel like Jet-guy may have been sort-of lifted from a pre-exisiting design, but I think these boys are good ol' fashioned "Cheap-o-bots" entirely original charming worthless crap. (As opposed to the bootlegged IP infringing charming worthless crap that I've spend half my income on)

    I particularly liked Boat Dude too.
