Heard back Seems my payment slipped by him, then he said it'd get shipped today but... forgot about public holiday, so now it's tomorrow.

All this suffering now means i'll get one with no QC issues right

I'm hoping the same. I have a tracking number now.

Mine came today. It's a great figure, if quite flawed in the transformation and engineering, which is terribly complex. A few minor QC issues on mine, including a missing screw that holds on of the feet on - it still stays on and he stands fine, but during transformation, it falls off on occasion.

Transformed him to gun mode and back once, and probably for the last time. He's going to be the centre piece for my MP Decepticons, and will look damned fine doing so.

Is that worth the money I paid? Perhaps. I don't (yet!) regret the purchase, despite the flaws.

I did the shoulder fix, it went from loose, popping out constantly to OMG I can't move his arms it's so damned tight. Due to the arm hitching on the white tab from the body, I can only rotate his arms in one direction, as the arm pops off the white tab if I go the other way.

Which fix did you use?

Swapped the loose ball joints for the tighter ones supplied seperately. Used the cute little screwdriver, also supplied.

There's also a little black cylinder/cog looking thing that I have no idea where it goes. Need to look that up I think.

watch the emgo shoulder fix video M-Bot

he just rotates the arm around and around until the ball joint is worn in and its fine after that

It's to do with the combined mode of all the gun pieces that form apollyon's "battle station" thingy, I'm pretty sure.
