    Most 3rd party companies will ship replacement parts. You just have to pay shipping.
    Here is Zeta's info:

    Board Rep: ?

    I'd contact TFsource anyway and see what they can do. Hell a lot of the good retailers will help you out as well even if you didn't buy the figure with them. I have gotten replacement parts from showz and I have seen Toydojo do it as well. Unfortunately, TFsource is not a place I would rate as one of the good ones. But I would still try.

    Funny shit like that deserves all the props and recognition it can get, haha.

    How's the window on the Caddy doing btw?

    And trust me when I say, I dig goofy shit like that. Essentially I think that's our peak with our collection, we amass it, we revel at it, and then we just go hog wild with what we do with it, haha.

    Of course, i'm guilty of this too, lol.

    Don't mention it, bro! I always believe that good work and effort must be recognized in at least some way.

    Your car's windshield. Is it actually not a Cadillac? Honest to God, the dashboard screamed Caddy to me, haha.

    If only my irl friends were actually into Transformers, haha...

    I legit haven't talked to them in months LMAO.

    As horrible as it may sounds, I legit couldn't give two shits either way.

    That kinda stuff is why sites like this reign supreme, bringing people from everywhere together for one reason or the other. Now if only there was a TFW Discord server, that legit would be another step in the right direction, since the lack of coordination for gaming and such is the only thing I think is a thing with the site, since a lot of on here are also gamers, for one.

    Thanks for the heads-up @Hawkwave ! If the TFSource route doesn't pan out, I will definitely try contacting ZetaToys directly.

    Meanwhile...

    Sweet!
    No, its a Chevy cruze. Its my work car and its quite honestly a crap car. Ive replaced BOTH front hub assemblies and it still makes noise...
    I have several local TF buddies so it helps with finding things and hanging out to talk toys!

    IT'S STILL GM THO, IT'S STILL GM THO, GOTTA GIVE ME CREDIT FOR THAT, HAHAHAHA.

    Ooooooof. That does NOT sound fun. Wonder what job would need for you to drive something like that...? My dad's GMC dump truck from like, '00-02, didn't get replaced till late last year with a '15 Silverado, so I feel you, man.

    Methinks THIS might be up your alley...



    I'm a Subaru guy, personally. The family's Forester Sport is legit the single greatest car i've ever driven.

    Probably gonna end up taking that thing in once the lease is up. Needless to say, if I gotta be honest, i'd get something like a WRX if I could LMAO. Or a Tesla... I do like me some high-tech stuff.

    God, I need to go to a con sometime, haha. Once all this COVID shit clears up.

    True dat! It IS a GM!!
    USUALLY a solid vehicle. I work for a copier repair company.
    Thats a funny video, his nametag says "Mahk"!
    Never driven a subaru. But i hear they're awesome.
    Come to Arkansas some time; we'll take good care of ya! After the covid of course!! :)

    Copier repair, wew boy. Guess that brings the "at work" part of "The Search for the Boss" full circle, haha.

    Mahk and the others at Zebra Corner are fucking geniuses, lmao. If you check their channel, the video I linked is only the tip of the iceberg, my friend.

    Oh boy are you missing out, not to mention, the thing's both the best-in-class for safety, AND a tank. The Forester once got hit by a deer. Only the grille and one side fender were busted, and my dad came out 100% unscathed.

    Guess i'll have to sooner or later! Legit anything's better than living at least somewhat near COVID ground zero!

    And they both look great!

    I'm personally waiting in the wings for GCreation to (hopefully) bring out theirs sometime soon, and MP-44 I gotta get my hands on.

    @Mercutio Make that, WE, with Megs.

    Thanks @Ichibaru !! My OCD has me wanting to retake the shot again... with a slight adjustment on Ironhide's abdomen.

    Honesty is the best policy!

    I never had the spare cash on hand for FT Phoenix... but was able to get DacaToys Kronos at an obscenely low price a couple years ago (under a hundred bucks)... and haven't looked back.

    Some old and some less old shots

    Thanks @Zherneboh !! TE Op Leader is pretty photogenic all things considered... and he has none of the backpack of MP-44.

    Now hopefully I will get a tail fin for ZT Silver Arrow in the near future. But by then I might have the Zeta Aerialbots all combined.

    Cheers!!
