    The coloring is trash. I skipped over the Megatron as Ross.

    Officially in stock at TerryTFS Club and ShowZ, wow that was a fast release lol

    This is most likely BMB based off the colors so I really hope the QC is good, based off the reviews we've heard of so far this figure seems pretty solid

    I’m a fan of the paint, but I’ve gotta work with my current scale. An OS with this style of paint would be exactly what the doctor ordered.

    Diecast is zinc, not steel. Low-quality diecast can be quite weak and brittle. (even the good stuff isn't THAT great)

    Plastic bends and has some give. Diecast may just fracture.

    Another one.

    Sand and silicon lube the area and it should be fine. People are breaking them from having to pull on the whole leg while trying to get the feet dislodged. It’s the added paint/coating on the upper ankle stock that seems to be the main contributor to the tolerance being so tight now.

    Another one bites the dust.

    But you're totally right, some sanding and lubricant, it's an easy fix.

    Why did China have to come down on WJ but spared BMB with their trash QC?

    Think I'll wait before opening mine to see if a proper guide to fixing it is made

    If Masterpiece has taught me two things it’s 1. Never trust breakage reports until your figure breaks and 2. Most of this stuff is ridiculously easy to see coming and fix if you just have a little patience.
