    20190801_213044.jpg Mine came in today! Other than some loose ankles & a little trouble getting Hardhead's shoulder cannon on & Cupola's wierd ball joint front feet I love them. I'm gonna put some matte varnish on those areas to take care of that. Can't wait to faction these guys up! View attachment 28347126

    Awesome! Just put in an order for Cupola & Iron Will through TFSource. Thanks for the heads up @Stitches

    Also got the replacement pieces from the link to Make Toys @ChromeMagnus posted.

    Been wanting these two for awhile. Now I can join the "Where are Highbrow and Brainstorm?" crew

    Oh well, couldn't have known.

    They are still trying to clear stock after four years.

    Just how many did MakeToys make? They sure overestimated the demand.

    At that price, if they don't sell out something is wrong with people. They're great figures

    Do these reissues still need the upgrade kits or are they already installed?

    if these reissues don't have them installed, I'm willing to bet that TFsource will include the parts in the package.

    I'm not even sure these are reissues. More like excess stock.
    Might as well pick up the replacement parts to be safe. They're practically free from Maketoys' website.

    The wheels on mine seemed fine. The ankle and crotch upgrade did provide a noticable difference. The parts are free from Maketoys just pay shipping.

    TCP told me the replacement parts are pre-installed for the batch I bought. I still haven't opened them yet so maybe I should order the replacement parts from Maketoys just to be safe.
