    That still looks pretty impressively large for such a cheap toy (maybe I'm just used to Diaclone being so expenseive hahaha)

    I don't use BBTS too often. I just figured if they were releasing early, maybe it'd hit BBTS early too? So I take it BBTS always gets their shipments last? Ugh..

    Well.. I guess that means I'll at least get a chance to see other's with pics and maybe an in hand review before I get mine? :)

    DaimChoc posted the same photo on his FB after I did, and within a day has over 1.7k likes. And yet this thread is :tumbleweed: 

    Where all dem people at?

    This should've been a hot item going by all those likes.

    I have frequently cancelled preorders with BBTS because other domestic retailers had the item in stock for 3-4 weeks and I got sick of waiting.

    Yeah, I like them as well but only for things that are already in stock or preordets that I'm in no hurry to add to the collection.

    Honestly, looking at the two of them, I kinda like the blue/white non-limited-edition version better. The colors are far more cohesive and reminiscent of a police theme. The only thing is that while plastic tends to yellow, but the green and black don't really work well together.

    The silver and green limited version.
    A friend didn't get balance inquiry too. I assume SZ didn't send it yet?
    I paid full price for mine.

    I just paid the full price, yesterday, for the limited edition version from ShowZStore. I wonder, other than DaimChoc, who else has received theirs?
    Considering the size of these figures, I really wonder if there will be a second production run?

    It all depends on the company, some keep churning out based on demand while others just make runs and stop regardless of demand. From BMB - Scorn keeps being made, though lesser extent than Glock, etc.

    Firing Issue and Fix video:

    https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV17g411T7DQ?share_source=copy_web


    If your rifle doesn't fire, make sure the bullet pushed all the way in when you load it.

    Trigger has to be in a forward position before cocking the bolt handle:

    If it still doesn't fire, means the gasket (垫片) is missing, and you need to contact your seller to get one.

    This reviewer was missing his gasket.

    The rest of the short video is talking about how to install the gasket, which is not difficult. Just need to unscrew 3 screws, but needs some force to pry open the part:

    This is his earlier unboxing, articulation and thoughts review (no transformation), before he got his replacement gasket and is also talking about the firing issue:

    You're welcome. If you've been in the army, your rifle is very important, it is your life. :lol
