    Ya it seems the tracking on DHL's site is more accurate than what Amazon is showing. It still shows that my TB is delayed on Amazon but DHL shows it's eta as Jan. 3 and according to the tracking, he appears to be on schedule for that delivery date.

    Happy new year everyone

    He seems to try really hard not to show any side on shots. Wonder why?

    I never checked my email! My bad. It's saying 3rd instead of 4th so much more accurate!

    Ha ha true. Maybe just focusing on what makes him happy, but I don't understand what he says.

    The first pic shows the range before mod, the second shows it after.

    I was just looking at the side by side pics thinking it was really unnecessary. That’s such an awkward movement. I don’t think any others can move their arms in that way

    Unfortunately it’s been confirmed by people that have it in hand. To use the secondary shoulder joint you must mod the figure and cut a bit of plastic. Very unfortunate because other than this issue it’s a perfect release imo. If you don’t need that much articulation the mod isn’t required. And thankfully it’s a very easy modification for those that need it. But it’s totally bizarre that this issue happened at all.

    I won’t need that much range of motion. I’ll make sure to keep him as is. Hope you enjoy yours

    I don’t think it’s necessary, but its so simple and doesnt impact anything else.

    The extra articulation will come in handy for dance poses when an eventual MP Jazz breaks out his speakers and cranks Stayin’ Alive though :D

    I’ll wait for an English instructional video if I decide to take that route

    It'll also allow him to swing his arms across his chest.

    So weird that this was changed on release. I'm sure it was just some oversight. But, I agree, it's beyond easy, and I'd even say calling it a "mod" is stretching. 20221231_154553.jpg 20230101_094356.jpg
