    I've should edited my previous post, but for some strange reason the pic refuses to load on my tablet, where I do most of my reading on the forums and using at this moment, but it shows up fine using my phone or pc.

    I thank you for your effects none the less.:cool:

    Just had mine arrive. Bottom seal of box was double taped and the inner carton was all double taped.

    Is this normal on these as I know sometimes it happens in factory.

    Some box damage / crushage at a few points

    More annoyingly there are a number of scratches and scuffs on the roof of the trailer and on Rodimus' upper chest. Anyone else had this?

    Not sure if general QC gamble or a previous customer return.

    Reputable store (not eBay) who I use loads and I won't have an issue if I want a replacement but, knowing variability in QC on masterpieces I'm never certain on whether its factory induced or not.

    All joints are good on him and the majority of fit and finish is fine.

    @Prescient , I’m sorry to hear about your figure. Does your box have the Long Life Design logo on the bottom right of the box? I doubt it can be a return as he’s a fairly new figure.
    I’ve had MP Dinobot’s box come double taped as well as Megatron’s, and all 3 Coneheads.
    Can you share pictures of your figure’s issues?

    Has anyone who’s ordered from @Chosen Prime received any information on this guy? TF source and other etailers have him already.

    It's definitely a new version.

    The scratches show up depending on the angle of photo but you can see one here. There are several on each side. Struggled with lighting when I took them last night so it's in b&w.

    Ouch, that’s deep. Did it scratch the paint/finish? I’m wondering if an ultra fine grit paper could buff that out, at least on the non-painted part.

    I've asked the retailer for a swap out so it will go back as is.

    I'm not sure we'll see a V2. I think we'll see a Hot Rod v2 before a Rodimus.

    You must be psychic!

    I think a Rodimus Prime V2 only happens if we get a Galvatron MP which is a runaway success. But at the current rate that will be in the year 3069.

    Thanks!
    Believe you me, as soon as I got the email notification, I emailed them to ship it with all of my Roller Stash items ASAP.
    I really hope there are little to no issues barring me from fully enjoying the fack out of this figure.
