    I'm assuming you mean backwards vs forward falling? If backwards, I found it to be the heel of the foot. They are too loose when compared to the rest of the foot. However, I felt like when I got the heels down and firm, they could hold their weight a bit more but I don't have the vibration issue you described so not sure how strong they are for that.

    I have the larger Collector Craft cubes, and I really like them. They catch the light in an intense way (unlike the KFC cubes), and they have a slightly tacky, rubbery feel, so they're less likely to slide around (like the hard plastic KFC cubes can).

    Thanks for confirming that. That's what I suspected. I just may go the CC route for the cubes instead of KFC. The CC mini cubes will go nicely with my FT Insecticons.

    Bear in mind, they're not super-tacky. Just tacky enough that they'll stay put.

    how do we know if it's the fixed re-issues or not? Also, what's wrong with them? why sell them?

    It does seem like a decent price though. :)

    Last night I opened up my set set that I got from baba a month or two back. I noticed a screwdriver included. Any idea what that is for?

    Props to baba for having this set on sale for the low, low back then....around $80 shipped.

    Should have bought mine back then instead of playing the "I'll wait, it will still be that price". ended up ordering mine from ShowZ last week so now I'm waiting til after the Chinese holiday to start seeing movement on the tracking.

    So I lost my temper and took a set of plyers to it resulting in all the bits I needed off looking like this

    And finally fixed with minimum damage to the surrounding plastic(luckily I doubt I will ever resell) IMG_20191123_202156.jpg

    Well with the insecticon team arriving, time to close the season 1 Decepticons.

    Order for these guys put. Ebay says estimation time is 27 Aug.

    If by any chance they arrive at that time (dont hold a candle) it would be the perfect birthday gift from me to myself (28th is my birthday) :lol
