    I'm going to add a top coat to prevent paint chipping. I've done it before. Thanks for the heads up.

    I have to wonder if the QC issues are because the factory workers think that it's close enough to Chinese New Year not to give a d**n because their contract is almost up and they aren't coming back next year anyway.

    That'd be the most likely.

    If that's true, then this will be a general problem, but a lot of products are fine including the super high end Flame Toys Kuro Kara Kuri Megatron that's just been released. Since Chinese New Year is very predictable, it also falls to XTB to not release products during that period? But we all know they were also still trying to shove Springer out the door. That's double negligence on XTB's part.

    The head of a toy company called super7 did an interview with toy reviewer pixel dan said workers were leaving ahead of time because there were talks of lock downs happening again. So I'd wager they may have lost a great deal of their work force due to people getting out of town while they could.

    Mines coming Tuesday. Should be a fun gamble, hopefully this'll do better than the Gamestop stocks. Hey on the plus side I got Koot back off ebay before it sold so, y'now, maybe...

    Who am I kidding. It's going to arrive in several pieces with a hand written note from Keith saying "I saw your posts, enjoy transforming it, Keith".

    Oh, I can explain this. Chinese New year, although China's loosened it's procedures it's expecting a spike due to their new year's. So I doubt we'll see anything for at least a month development wise out of China, I don't expect to see Virtus before May due to it.

    Hahaha, unfortunately we as humans will have to unwillingly add the SARS CoV 2 to our "collection" of flu virus... With time, it will be less harmful, like a "bad flu".

    interestingly, news story on cny with a reporter there said that this year people aren’t traveling the way they usually do (at least partly because of quarantines they would need to do on return). This may end up the least disruptive cny ever- but time will tell.

    Why? Have you transformed Locke yourself or are just watching video without him in hand?
