I also emailed amiami. No response yet but this is probably the reason I haven't received the bill for payment yet. gavinfuzzy already received his wherein usually around this time, amiami should have had started sending emails of confirmation of availability and payment :-?

Maybe he's become a headmaster & his nebulan partner got angry & left for a while.

I suspose a easy fix,is to buy one of those KO Constructicon sets & take the head from that & give it to the #20 encore set.

I ain't interested in this thus I pay zero for a full set.

I'd rather buy the 3rd party Giant instead.

That's not my point. My point is that ANYONE (not you specifically) who pays for a set, should get a set, not 99,99% of a set.

I personally don't care what you buy instead of it, nor is this the point of the thread.

Well that sucks. Guess I will be contacting TF Source to see what their policy is regarding known defects. I have two sets pre-ordered, one to leave sealed and another to display next to Hercules.

I will probably leave it in Devastator mode 90% of the time but would like to have the option of displaying them individually too.

OH CRAP. Just realised i forgot to take my receipt when i got my Devy, but i called em up and they said they'll give me a head as soon as Takara ships em over. Hope I don't need that receipt to claim Mixmaster's head... :|

How easy will the head be to add? Will it involve glueing etc...?

I'm hoping when mine turns up I'll be lucky, but given how wide spread this is I'm not convinced. I paid for a compete figure, not an Airfix model.

I havent tried, but i seems like there is a slot where the head is supposed to fit into the chest. Should be as simple as unscrewing the chest, inserting the head, and screwing it back. ;)

Is it my eye or Encore Devastator mouth looks different from the original? I'm comparing his mouth to my Cybetronian Guide book. This remind me of Reissue Jazz mouth.
