    Also, V10 will be self-transforming and driving itself around.

    I seem to have misplaced my TE-01 trailer hitch adapter. Do you know if any retailer sells replacement parts? Or if anyone has one they'd be willing to sell me?

    :D 

    Oh totally,;100% wishful thinking.

    Even if the knee swivel was a more refined joint so you didn't get the angular overhang when rotated it would considerably improve the aesthetics.

    Doesn't mean they won't do it though.

    An upper thigh swivel and slightly improved (rounded) knee swivel and they would sell ad infinitum now they improved the head etc sufficiently.

    We'll see. Personally I hope it is a v4 with additional refinements as opposed to a V3 reissue.

    I hope there isn't a V4. I felt like V3 was very spotty on QC, mostly paint, sprue marks everywhere, joints seemed a little off to me too.

    In case your wondering, this was based on 5 copies spread across 2 orders from two different batches and owning multiple copies starting from V1.

    I wish they would make the head go into altmode a little smoother, a lot of bent antennae in the thread.

    V1 was definitely better than the two V3s I've owned from a QC standpoint. Well, apart from the floppy left toe on the former.

    I hope they do a more vibrant red & bring back the transparent windshields.

    This neck is a nice upgrade from the original. Great product from a even better seller! He was patient and very cool through the selling process! Thanks again!

    I'm thinking of getting one of these as well but the usual suspect vendors seem to be out of V3's so I'm hopeful for a V4 down the line somewhere. Haven't seen anything about one though except in this thread so is it just a rumor or do we know one is coming?
