    I sent the money in June and was now told to email them again in August. This makes 8 months of trying to get replacement parts. I have no idea how it was do smooth for you. Really unimpressed with how they handle things (and how poorly designed those hips were)

    johosontony is @Uncle Billy's Ebay store.
    cbyg3016 is their 2nd Ebay store. Usually sells the same stuff.

    Their non-Ebay website update seems to just about complete. www.unclebillyshop.com
    You have to go to "My Account" down at the bottom if you want to sign in. There doesn't seem to be a logout/sign out button but I think you are automatically signed out if you close the browser window and stay off for some time.
    Looks like you can still safely place orders there. Plus unlike their Ebay stores, prices are slightly cheaper and there's no sales tax for USA customers.

    Has anyone done the crotch/hip replacement? I have every screw removed and the crotch won't come apart, even with prying

    Edit: FT got back to me quickly. Insane process. To disengage the waist ratchet that also holds the two pelvis halves together, you have to literally, according to FT, disassemble the entire torso. So its pretty involved. My pelvis is somewhat damaged from trying to pry it apart, but nothing really noticeable, and Terminus has hips again, so it works out

    Just got my replacement hip joints 2 days ago finally. But I got 2 sets so I've got enough for a couple accidents lol. On a side note:

    Fanstoys say there wasn't any design changes and while the hip joint is still the same I can conform some parts were switched to metal. As you can see in these photos on a video of emgo316 Transforming him the thigh ratchet joint is all plastic. On the subsequent video the joint has been switched to metal. So there is still hope for the hip joint! Screenshot_20200814-124149_QuickPic.jpg Screenshot_20200814-124130_YouTube.jpg

    So your replacement hip joints are metal/die cast?

    Those don't appear to be the same joint. The orientation of those are opposite.

    I can understand what the first two pieces do, under the backpack, but what do the second two pieces do?
