    I tried using the hair dryer on my stress marks but it didn’t work. Anyone got tips?

    My wife has some fancy hairdryer. I usually do short bursts on the high setting fairly close to the mark. Say half an inch away for 5 seconds, check, again? Just what has worked for me, anyway.

    I’ll give it a shot. I know I blasted it for about a minute and got nothing.

    Weird.
    My Galvatron came in a mint shipping box (from a local Amazon facility) but inside the Galvatron box had a ton of water damage... Wonder if it was a return, and if they shipped it loose earlier..

    What i use is boiling water, but the important thing is to submerge it in the water after turning the heat off.

    It’s annoying that Amazon got this whole wave early except the only one I ordered. (Tracks)

    &

    I do find it odd that there have been no Tracks "sightings" as of yet. I get that online retailers receive full cases of a figure, but why would his wavemates ship first and him much later? Also, no Kingdom Wheeljacks have been seen yet, either. Are they producing/shipping them in sets of two? Wingfinger/Scorponok and then Tracks/Wheeljack because of the theme? First, Beasts, then G1? It's just so odd that the other two from this wave haven't become available yet. Just really, really odd.

    And now, Target's even delaying Tracks...

    Somebody somewhere said Tracks was bumped out of this wave due to a packaging issue(?). I think it's safe to say he's been bumped at least given he isn't shipping yet anywhere.

    They hold up Tracks for an issue on the cardboard box, didn’t halt/care to stop the presses on misassembled Galvatron, lol. :p

    Which is odd, because he's clearly available for sale. HK and Singapore have him ready to go. I don't get it.

    What issue with the box? I mean unless someone hid an obvious swear I see no reason to hold a figure for a box issue

    Sorry should have directed that at SegaGenesis’s comment rather than HunterGreen’s
