    Finding one is easy, since BBTS has him, the problem is, and I hate to blame the virus in a way, but almost everything I have preordered comes out next month cause of delays (FT Wildrider and OM Blast Off) so I have to wait a little bit to buy stuff after June/July to balance it out

    I have the same problem too. After waiting almost 5 months for my Armageddon, the hip joint on Swindle's side literally exploded. I contacted Baba for spares for the hip and other QC issues but Zeta has been slow and Covid 19 ain't helping either.

    I had the exact same hip explode btw so you guys should probably check your swindle hips for stressing if you have the first run Bruticus just to be safe

    What does your recommendation have to do with a broken figure that was bought several months ago? It's an issue with the figure's manufacturer, not the reseller.

    it was about getting replacement parts. Tfsource abandons you after a set amount of time while other retailers either get you a replacement for free or let you buy one. I simply asked to find out if he could get a replacement part.

    Most stores do not have "free" replacements after several months from purchase of an item, unless they have new restocks coming in, and can work it in with the manufacturer. There was no question - implied/not implied - from your post.

    Now stop arguing over such a stupid thing. Sorry I mentioned a retailer you didn’t like but your steering this way the fuck off course.

    For the record, I've bought from many a stores - same for ShowZ. Getting replacement part(s) for something that was bought a couple of months ago from a reseller would not likely happen. How about you ball up that anger of yours and put it up where the sun doesn't shine.

    Finally got the Armageddon team. Love how they look together.
    Still waitning for the leader however, which should be coming this week.
    No technical issues for far, only Take Off came without his weapons. Do You think it's better to contact my retailer, or Zeta directly for the missing parts?

    retailer is the best option, you may contact Zeta but they will direct you to your retailer.

    Just got my Blitzkrieg today and the left hip joint of the Armageddon is broken out of the box :( . Hope I will be able to get a replacement.
