    Same. I didn't know Quakeblast had a version with an opaque hand until today, but now I really want one. Blast, bugger and damnation!

    Faction symbol will happen this Friday, if work allows.

    Update: Light up features worked on head and chest. Arm did not work.

    I took apart the arm and luck was on my side as it was a short on the negative and positive terminals on the LED, quick easy fix.

    Some lose joints but I have Kiki to fix those issues. I will transform latter, but so far seems to be a really good buy. Thank you @FiVE1ZERO for lookin out!

    @imest No prob-Bob.!;)  Thanks for explaining to me the whole Mr.Hobby Setter/Softer procedure awhile ago! It's such a game changer.


    EDiT: Hey folks here's another open bid for QuakeBlast I came across and it's only $45 @ the moment. Looks like it's missing pretty much everything (lol) and just includes a hose. Ends in 22hrs.

    (I swear I'm starting to think I'm the QuakeBlast whisperer lol) Best of luck folks!

    I'm still up for a W01C if one pops up with the box. I've been on the fence on a clear QW as I love QB more, so holding off until one comes my way.

    Man, I looked on eBay for the hell of it and i'm happy I got mine when I did when it was just $100. People are trying to get $250-$275 for them. :confused:

    Ebay:
    Snagged one off ebay for $200 even today via make an offer. Now the wait to see if that is what actually arrives, begins. :D 

    By the way, has any comparison pics of this vs the MP-29+ version ever been posted? I am "really" curious how those specific two bots compare up to one another.

    If not, if someone has both, any chance you could post some pics?

    Finally he's back after I sold him some time ago and regretted it ever since. He even came with the purple hand.

    I keep mine with the clear hand... I've got an extra hand so contemplated painting it silver.

    Nostalgia I guess. To me he just doesn't look "right" without it.

    Haha, I’ll always choose the clear hand and gun for Shockwave (and Shackwave) if given the option. That G1 toy just has its hooks forever sunk into the pleasure-centers of my brain.

    unfortunately some of the plastic has broken on my clear pink hand so the thumb won’t sit in the joint securely anymore… can’t ever seem to find a replacement on eBay either.

    Still, he’s a hell of a figure.

    Don't forget to extend the torso upwards to unlock the ab rotation.

    That sucks! I'm always scared that will eventually happen to mine. I try not to mess with his hand too much.

    I got the same problem. for some reason the clear plastic just cracked on my copy and my copy stills in a Detolf. Good thing I was able to pick up an opaque hand on Ebay just for these problems.
