    Was wondering if any 3p company makes them. I orderd an Earthrise Prowl & Ironhide 2-pack and I'm missing a part of the Ironhide in the pack. I'm curious to see if there are any 3d print sellers or other third parties that might be able to help.

    You could just return it and get a new one. Costs less and less of a hassle.

    I would've done that when I first got it, but alas, they had sold out by then. =(

    Oh. I don't really know much about how main line operates nowadays but surely stuff gets restocked pretty frequently?

    Nobody makes specific parts like that. You'll either need a whole KO and pray the size is the same or return it for a new one.

    Doesn't seem like Amazon ever gets a restock of Transformers. =(

    You can contact Hasbro customer service about getting a replacement (I ordered skyfire from Amazon and got a replacement due to paint application issues). They didn't ask me to return the one, but YMMV

    =( already tried. They said they can't because it's an exclusive.

    What part(s) are you missing? I believe the ER version is a heavy retool of the Siege Ironhide figure. Maybe you can use parts from a junked Siege Ironhide?

    There was an online company that used to sell cast replacement parts for G1 toys. They got shut down.

    The panel on his right leg. Already tried to see if the Siege one matched. It doesn't. =(
