    Apparently Lio Convoy was supposed to start shipping about the same time that Nova Prime and Carzap did. I've got those two, but still waiting on LC. I wonder if it's because they used cheaper postage methods for the "free" figure as some in the US received him the day after they received Carzap

    Yeah it's most likely the cheaper postage.... maybe it's all on the slow boat... who knows...

    But also, just coz they sent the domestic US ones, who knows if they sent the international ones out at all?

    Yeah they don't have a great deal of respect for their international members

    My Combiner Wars Scavenger has two left fists. Don't suppose anyone has one with two rights?

    Only found this this morning while taking photos of my BotCon toys for the write-up... my Megatron has two left feet. (so no dancing for him )

    The feet are so similar that I'd have never noticed it over the checking of feet and hands at the convention (to get one swapped over as they can slide on and off easily), and I didn't notice it when I took the group photo of my entire haul in robot mode last week because it still stands (but having it on its own I noticed that the right foot wasn't sitting flat to the ground).

    And in case Yoshi reads this... no, I didn't swap over my Megatron for yours before posting it to you. The bags are still sealed if you are worried.

    The interesting thing was that when I asked at the end of the convention about how QC issues were this year, they noted that they didn't look to have anyone come to them with faulty, missing or wrong parts this year... which was a good turnaround from recent years. So if I had found this out while over there, I think I would have been the ONLY person to find a QC issue this year.
    I'd say, "what are the odds of that happening", but that's the story of my life...

    Get a non-attending person to claim the issue when their set arrives...

    I can't find anything on their site about exchanges or faulty toys... but from what I can remember, I don't think do anything with BotCon toys, as they are pretty firm on people checking their toys at the show if they want anything fixed.
    And when I had a Club toy that was missing a part, they wanted me to pay for it to be sent to them for a completely new toy, instead of just posting me the missing part.
    It was a $20 membership toy, so it would cost more than that just to do what they wanted... which may be okay for their American customers, but that's the problem with the club, in that it is only structured to cater for Americans.
