sorry to hear that. there was a warning posted by Newage on their weibo and posted here a few weeks ago

New Age Legends Scale Devastator

 

I knew about the sliders and mine still got stress marks. They don't slide easily on mine.

 

A little bit of airsoft silicon oil will do the trick.

 

The only stress makes I got on my set A was in a weird area. On Scavengers hip tread. Might have gotten there when I dropped it. The mark went away with some heat from a hair dryer.

 

Ahh, my treadlegs are here. Don' t have time to really play with them but they're absolute lookers.

 

That Mixmaster is pretty bad.

 

Definitely weakens the set a lot. He's too narrow looking and then the terribly hallow feet (though the latter supposedly going to be fixed). I looks like mixmaster's alt mode's barrel was transformed better in the other pic/vid that was posted earlier.

 

Comparing these to the care they put into their new Optimus, they don’t even seem to be from the same company. Those wafer thin tires on Mixmaster bug me almost as much as the DX9 wheels that don’t roll at all.

 

At list Mix's wheels are G1 accurate to at least one consistent source (the toy), unlike Long Haul's wheels which just look trash by any account.

 

I love NA but the more I see of these, the gladder I am that I skipped them.

I still want to see how the toy set turns out though.

 

More like this set B is really bad but glad NA decided to go back to the drawing board and redesign the leg parts for set B.

 

I agree that set B is a shame - Set A sure has reminded me of why I love NA though.

 

The alt modes on Set B look pretty good and will make nice companions to Set A all arranged around the feet of Constructor.   

 

One more review:

 

NA Mixmaster wins for face and alt mode,MS for bot mode instead is the best of 2.

 

From the Knee down Mixmaster is really bad.

 

Not bashing Newage because I love them but why don’t all the Constructicons have the articulated hands?

 

I think Mixmaster’s legs are a tad goofy, but they’re interesting, and feel like a vehicle that has transformed, whereas I really dislike the MS version’s legs which look like a pile of folded plywood, in the shape of a box, with the front detailing that looks like wood panelling (someone pointed out it’s accurate to g1, but I don’t care, it doesn’t look good).

but I’ll be happy to get the fix for the empty bits, that’s a cherry on top.

“Now that Pack B is ready to ship, we noticed that our fans have much concern. It is true that the two members of pack B and H33 Berith from pack C have a little design flaw and not as perfect as we announced. We want to make an apology for that. But an apology can’t fix anything and that is why we also bring a solution. We will produce brand new parts for H31 Crocell, H32 Marbas and H33 Berith. With a simple replacement you can make your Hephaestus great again. It is totally free. Customers who have purchased the whole members of Hephaestus please contact your retailer and ask for this free accessory pack. This pack is still work in progress and will ship after pack C. Image 3 is the current progress of our little red truck. Till all are one, my friend.”

What’s wrong with the other 2 figures? And we have to contact our seller ourselves? They don’t just ship it out??
