    I wasn't being careful while posing. It's a tiny hinge, and probably should have been metal. Right now I have the part staying on with sticky tack. Might just glue it, TBH.

    Damn. :( 
    Hopefully you got some really good glue and it actually sticks. Because my TLK Bee broke off his left foot tube also due to my own carelessness. And glueing it back on hasn't exactly made sure it stuck...

    I wonder if this is the kind of thing the warranty would cover?

    Oh no, hope you can glue it without any problems, otherwise asking ThreeZero for a replacement piece might be good? I'm not sure if it falls under the repair services.

    5. Shipping cost of repair services:
    • A. Shipping cost of delivering items to us is at customers’ expense.
    • B. Threezero is responsible for the shipping cost of delivering the repaired items to customers.

    I thought it only covers it when your item is defective out of the box? Would be nice of them to send another part, but who knows if that's likely given all their Primes are out of stock.

    I'm gonna try. When my premium OP lost a finger they sent me a new one free of charge.

    EDIT: Wow they responded quickly! The good news is they are going to ship me the replacement part! The bad news is they said it will probably take two months or more... So for now it will stay on with sticky tack.

    Ah that's good!
    They shipped my replacement part today and should arrive within the next week or 2, while they originally said it may take 8 weeks.

    Yeah same here! Mine's already shipped! I guess they just say that to cover their asses in the event that it does take a while.

    That’s great to hear! And I would assume so too, lol. Mine arrived 2 days ago which would mean only 3 weeks have passed instead of 8 weeks.

    Just got this in from BBTS, does anyone know what battery he uses? I had some for their previous DLX figures but must have ran out and forgot which type it was.

    hello, kinda late to the thread already but does anyone has a Unique Toys/ BS02 KO Megatron to take a pic with this Optimus? I'd love to see if they fit together because I'm primarily a post and display kinda guy on bigger bots, thanks!

    I don’t have pictures or all the figures anymore but if I recall correctly, UT is 13 inches, BS-02 is 12 inches and the Threezero TLK Prime is 11.8 inches.

    Sorry, totally forgot to post about it, but my replacement piece showed up on friday of last week, in a huge envelope with tons of bubble wrap. My wife was amused at how tiny the actual thing inside was. Now my OP is whole again!

    I decide to buy Flame toys Star Saber to be a companion for my Optimus as I have a battle plan for a transformer story I'm writing, Optimus vs Star Saber you guys can think it like Kratos vs Thor

    I don’t have Star Saber, but I have quite a few of the other flame toys figures and this Prime is quite a bit taller than the flame toys figures I do have. Hope that isn’t an issue for you.
