They messed up mine too with the crap blue they used instead of his anime colours. Pre-order cancelled.

It just amazes me that everyone wanted hasbro to come out with Tcracker and now we have him and now no one wants him?
I'm sure BBTS, Tsource or where ever Tcracker was bought will work things out getting your Tformer replaced, but no reason to boo hoo hoo about it.

To a lesser extent it's the same with Predaking. He doesn't seem to have sold out anywhere and his price is rapidly decreasing at Amazon. So many people said that they wanted him and now when faced with the price (which is a little high) they don't want him anymore.
It'll be the same story as last time he was reissued as he'll eventually become rarer and the price will get jacked up and everyone who passed will regret it as they'll be forced to shell out even more cash.

Hasbro did wait a long, long time to release Thundercracker, too long by the looks of things.

I just recieved my Generations Thundercracker from BBTS to find out that one of his landing gear/ chest vent pieces is missing....as in never was attached. Damn HASBRO and their QC issues!!!!! Just be on the look out guys! And I will send a nice notice to HASBRO to watch their QC issues especially since I haven't heard of any so far with this figure.

Or...chill and email (politely) BBTS for a replacement.

They will do it with ease and a smile. Just...chill.

Hasbro won't respond and if they do, they'll send you a non-Thundercracker replacement. Further, they really aren't in charge of the QC like you might think, but I do agree that they could stand to tighten a few nuts and bolts.

Don't you mean to take a chill pill first then email bbts?

That said, BBTS customer service is awesome. You'll get your part in no time
