    Obligatory "I'd still take a Greatshot retool if FT would do one, @dalianjj ."

    Also, given the amount of toy-based redecos and retools that have been offered for MPs by this point, I'd be down for a toy-based Hydra too. Slightly different head, ditch the metallic paint, tampos to replicate G1 stickers. We already have the toy chest option, so it's not difficult to pull off.

    I have mine for sale on the boards too. :)  I've just decided I'm stopping at the movie for my collection, doesn't really fit and I could use the money for other things I'm missing.

    Picked this guy up at TFcon. I like him fine so far but I haven't transformed him yet.

    Alternatively, Toyhax/Reprolabels has some G1-esque stickers on offer, if you're interested:

    After spending like a week transforming FT Hydra, being ultra careful in every stage, taking a day between every form to just be very chill, and using YouTube to guide me through its transformations, I finally returned it to robot form where it was likely to stay in perpetuity and just had it standing on a goddamn shelf when it tipped over, fell a foot onto some plush carpet, and its leg sheared off at the knee joint.

    God. Dammit!

    I got it from BBTS but it is now (of course) outside the 30 day window by about ten days. Is there any chance of a replacement part from them?

    Mostly I’m kind of stunned. I’ve had a couple of high quality figures break in the past just because I wasn’t paying well-enough attention when transforming, but this is the most severe break I’ve EVER seen and just from falling on carpet!

    Sorry—I forgot to mention I emailed BBTS minutes after it happened. I’m just wondering what the likelihood of them helping out is, as I won’t hear back until Monday at the earliest.

    I’ve been on the fence about FT stuff, but I love Sixshot and I feel this one is the one to have. Is he really worth it? He looks phenomenal but I’ve heard FT stuff is pretty fragile..

    Wouldnt exactly call it fragile. It's very heavy so when its dropped it has a chance of breaking.

    As is to be expected with MP figures, but also heard the paint chips easily too
