    My guy can't hold his gun securely to save his life, and I mostly avoid floor polish or glue on tabs nowadays. Different workaround required.

    So i think some one here said something about anniversary packaging from ShowZ? i was told the shipper was out of packing so that might be why my tracking is unknown. i’m just spit balling lol maybe one has to do with the other.

    That's my idea of the perfect blue for his eyes. What did you use?

    Mine says it’s arriving on time for delivery tomorrow but I just can’t shake the feeling I’ll wake up tomorrow with an arriving late status.

    Good on you. I had noticed that when I was watching a couple different reviews. I was going to post and see if anyone checked that. So glad now I know and I can fix it so I don't need to keep yanking the heads off.

    Take an exacto knife to it, and clean it up. Honestly all you have to do. Find where it stops, and start trimming from there.

    Best Regards,

    problems so far have been one leg not bending the same range as the other, knees having same problems as official, stress marks on plastic from tabs being wrong shape, truck mode not lining up correctly due to tabs not fitting together. Can't remember if their was any more?
    *Edit: oh and the waist snapping at the pin.

    Does it come apart to paint the eyes or do I need to break out the detailing brush?

    This was what I was hoping to see/going to try when I got mine. Looked all along like that piece that attaches to the ball joint was still a separate piece. My fear was that it was glued in. Thanks for the tip!!

    Still debating if I want to get this guy. I am very happy to have my Transform Element prime. Can anyone given me an opinion if it is worth to try this guy out if I already have TE? I've wanted to experience the mold, but these hit or miss problems have me contemplating it.
