    Initial runs did. I don't know about later ones. I guess you can check is the best advice I got.

    Tigris's chest opens? Can't say I ever noticed that. I'll have to look that up later.

    I could be wrong but only 1 I remember fixing was Bovis while my Fortis (Original release) was fine.

    Same for me. I only remember having to fix one of them, but can't remember which one.

    I fixed Bovis (which is the only one of the two I own) so that's good to know that my Fortis will arrive problem free (fingers crossed). Thanks.

    I'm among the folk jumping down the Feral Rex hole... I've picked up Talon and Leo Dux so far. Holy crap. Talon, as a standalone figure (I got him first), is a bit on the boring side, though posing his wings is properly epic. I just got Leo Dux in today, and not only does he make Talon way cooler, he's an amazing figure in his own right. I'm getting these guys one at a time, and the thrill of the hunt is real!

    Which team members come with replacement parts for other figures? I'm still going through this thread, but 1877 pages (as of this posting!) is a LOT to go through.

    Fortis comes with replacement bits for Bovis. (Later releases of Bovis are already fixed IIRC).

    Tigris comes with some optional add-ons/upgrades for several of the others, as well as Leo Dux's main cannon.

    Fortis and I believe Tigris came with replacement and upgrade pieces.

    Felisaber also came with the rubber grip pads for the combiner feet, if we're just talking about upgrades in general. Although those were just 3M rubber tape and cupboard door bumpers, so it's not necessary to get Felisaber just for those.

    The Talon head from the face update kit designed by @jesslynMMC makes a world of difference.

    I honestly much prefer the original face sculpts to any of those supplied by the "upgrade" kit. IIRC, those were designed to match their IDW designs.

    I'm sure Fanstoys will get around to this guy eventually, but in the meantime Feral Rex is still magnificent. Even though his joints aren't very strong anymore he still stands up well enough.

    Argh. I lost my Talon's instructions... wanted it mostly for the comic. Is there a chance I can contact MMC about getting another?

    Probably doesn't hurt to ask them on FB or email [email protected], and maybe at the very least they have a PDF or digital copy.

    Just got a Fortis from ebay today. Very cool... except he came with Bovis's weapons. :(  Sent the seller an email... we'll see what happens

    Edit: Oh wow. It's Bovis's entire plastic tray with the wrong figure. Le sigh.

    I remember Fortis being the last bot I needed to complete Rex and he was SOLDOUT everywhere @ the time and I was stressing lol. I wonder if MMC still has replacement parts for the Feralcons?
