    They're screw hole covers for Aiakos/Guyhawk' s (the red jet) nosecone.

    You might need to shave them down slightly to fit.

    Hi all

    the 2 parts of the spear stick are too tight and they are not able to be dismantled:

    Is there a way to make them apart?

    Thanks!

    Should I use Hair Dryer to blow it? Or soap it inside oil before trying to turn it around?

    MMC would be perfect with their "all-integrated" style for Liokaiser. The original g1 toy was almost completely without parts forming

    Then there's question of a realistic scaled Liokaiser would look like...

    After 2 years of buying it, I feel very regretful,.TFC has only just flourished after the success of TFC poseidon, before that there were pathetic products like TFC ares,TFC hades...the worst combiners in history of 3rd party combiner, they can't stand, easy to fall no matter how to fix
    My Hades after almost 2 years, I tried to fix it by all means, but the result was Ceberus broke his hip, what a disappointing combiner, I hope in the future someone will buy the design of MFT liokaiser, and will produce it, really looking forward to it, for those who don't own TFC hades: that's good news for you

    Realistic in what sense? You have 3 jets, 2 tanks and a dune buggy. We'd need some serious alt mode re-imaginings for that to work.

    Just makes me think again that either it's time for a reissue that fixes the problems, or another company should handle this altogether.

    If I’m a third party company I would think the smart money comes at making a legends or mainline size version. mp market may be close to tapped with this one, but the other two are wide open especially with the upcoming victory saber. The only issue with mainline size would be getting it out before a potential official one

    I can't agree, especially looking at posts from this thread.

    Is there a confirmed news that TFC Hades would be reissued right soon?

    Normally when TFC reissues a toy, do they just do a plain reissue or they would enhance the ratchet, hip stabilization and other QC problems faced by TFC Hades? If not, I would pull trigger to get from different sources now.

    Thanks.

    I wonder if they would bother doing a re-issue. I bought my set late into the cycle and got most of the boys for 1/2 off. That first release hung around a while.

    I still wouldn't mind getting this set but the prices recently aren't worth it to me. Third party has come some way since this originally released.

    And we still need a Landcross.

    The normal cycle with TFC stuff seems to be:
    1) Original release at ~$99 per figure
    2) A few years later rerelease the set for ~half price

    Have we seen a case where they to a third release at the cheaper price?
