    He was in robot mode, one shelf higher, out of direct sun light and nowhere near a heat source. The room has a regular light but it's rarely on. I wonder what causes that soft nylon type plastic to shrink.

    Thanks Maz. This gives me more confidence about getting a replacement.

    That sucks. The leg panels in my opinion are not well designed. Many parts on MP figures can handle wear and tear, but those leg panels are not one them.

    So I managed to find another Loud Pedal and so far.....touch wood.....this one has no such issues :) :) :) 

    Comparing the new to the old definitely shows that something caused the leg panel hinges on my original to shrink. He was on display in robot mode from the moment I got him so maybe that's a factor. I've also noticed that the hinge pieces on LP are made of a different type of plastic to that of Tracks and Road Rage.

    Whatever the cause I'm going to be super careful with this new one. He is really is a fantastic figure!

    Ahh well done sourcing another! I couldn't live with a substandard Loudpedal, he's just too awesome :) 

    All the best

    I just received Loudpedal yesterday from a US shop through Amazon.com. It was $65 shipped so I ran with it.

    Anyone know if there is a ko head of Loudpedal? I reaaly want to repaint the head and a KO regular track j to a toy version. But cant sacrifice an original for it.

    It just seems a waste.

    I had to buy an official Loudpedal to do it. But it was worth it.
