Just got my copy in and the bad luck with kos finally got to ya boy. Right arm hanging by a thread out of the box. Not happen with the new pieces not being diecast now. If it is heavy abs plastic, I’m sure it will turn out just fine, but I don’t like the rug being pulled out from me like that. But I will say, bmb giving more customer support than anything Bandai gives with the likes of shf QC

 

Very nice. That is the head and torso upgrade correct?

 

Hey man, this may be hard for you, but try not being a complete ass  

 

Becoming one of my favorite shelves in my collection.

 

Wow, thanks my guy. Really needed to hear that  

 

He's just being an arse, your inkwash looks absolutely fine.

 

a member did this..thanks for the idea!!

 

I doubt those replacement parts that floating around the Web is the new replacement parts made of metal. Some sellers are still sending out the old shoulder replacement parts to buyers but the new parts by BMB is not officially ready or out

 

You know, for the right colour for the weathering, you need to use black, dark green and some rust colour, mix it all then. I use those tones for my bayformers and they looks pretty good

 

For that shoulder plastic part, why not better make a plaster mold, and buy some hotweel to get the diecast, melt it, and pour it on the mold, so they would have a metal piece

 

Please tell me there's a way to get those replacement parts without going through chinese ebay seller who barely understand what I'm talking about.

I've told him multiple times about the issues, he said he'd check with the manufacturer and now that I tell him the parts are supposedly available, he asks me if I want a partial refund.

I'd even pay for it if necessary.

 

I got my bot from show.zstore and until I get an update from them, I’ll wait to decide about the shoulders and what we’re actually getting.

 

yeap..me too..asked my local supplier about it and he said he hasnt heard anything yet about the replacements.

 

Head, torso, waist “flaps” and the shotgun  

 

How much did it cost  

 

you can try contacting showz to see if they are willing to help out.

 

Oh SNAP!

 

Sadly for some reason they stopped shipping to Switzerland, I can't order anything from them anymore.

 

Sorry it took so long but here you go. I'm super happy with the slightly bigger head and crotch flaps:
