ive sent tfsource a message but i doubt i will hear till monday. every issue ive ever had with an order, they have gone out of their way to help with, thats why i use them over any other firm. i just hope given the rarity of CC now plus the fact im in the UK, that they can help. i know what u mean about FP items, ive got two explorer/munitioner sets and just ordered the first crossfire set, they are awesome

ive decided to buy a second set. i know its insane, but i love the kit, even with this flaw. and right now i can afford the cash. seriously annoyed i spent 180 dollars on a piece of amazing kit with one manufacturing flaw almost ruining it.
just out of interest, anybody think its better to get another City Commander or get DIA Commander? considering i already have a CC

If you have Henkei Prime than I would go with D.I.A Commander. Also, I don't know how loyal you are to TFSource but BBTS has the D.I.A Commander on clearance for $80.00 which is $40 cheaper than TFSource. You can find it here:

It's FunPub. It's their specialty.

So far I have no looseness problems, and in fact I'd say it really stands up as well as my 2008 version of the commander armor does with the upgrades. I am concerned, however, about the pelvis piece and the tight connection it has with both parts it locks on to in either mode. I'd like to know if anyone who owns this version of the set can confirm whether or not this element will lead to significant paint chipping in future, since the whole reason I got a henkei convoy in the first place was to keep his paint intact, unlike classics optimus prime.
