    Does this company offer replacement parts? A screw on my Boost's feet snapped and the feet disintegrated into two separate pieces.

    The service person (Miss Zou) got back with me only a few hours after I sent the message and after several back and forth messages regarding what was needed, will send out a replacement foot for $7 shipping.

    Thanks, guys!

    does anyone know if XTB still produces hatch? I looked for him on ebay, but apart from a few overpriced figures, I didn't find anything

    If you have the TOON version of Boost (Windcharger) and would be willing to trade for the TOY version of Boost (MISB) please pm me.

    Well this is... interesting.

    Metallic versions went up for PO on BBTS at least, not sure if anyone else has them up as of yet. $130 for both, $70 each.

    Probably not. It's part of the "charm".

    Thanks for the heads-up! I've been looking for a toy (chrome) version of Hatch for a while now!

    Boost’s feet transformation is simply the worst thing in the entire transformers hobby

    They aren't as bad once you know what you're doing, but the first time's definitely a pain. Not intuitive at all!

    I’ve transformed him three or four times, and each time has been worse, even watching a video. Maybe mines just defective, but it is a complete horror show
    :D

    I don't think it's just you, or just your figure. It does a nice job pulling off the original G1 look, but it isn't the greatest design. I got better at it the more I did it, but it was never fun.
