Over this pass weekend I managed to find 2 Scourges and 1 Kup, and finally got around to open these guys on Sunday and i wanna say that both Scourges are find, but theres an issue with Kup that i didn't notice until i was watching some reviews on Kup and checking out the gallery of him here, mine is missing the pop up plastic shield in front of his face!! I've taken a flashlight and looks the his chest cavity and theres nothing there! and I assume that shield piece holds or supports the plate his head sits on? Has anyone run across this issue or am i missing something? Any and all feedback welcomed.

Assuming the part is the part I'm thinking of, it doesn't really support anything, it's just there as an aesthetic thing.

I've never looked at any videos or anything, but on mine it doesn't "pop up" it's just always there, albeit in a place that doesn't show in alt mode.

I'm sorry to hear this. Generations Kup is one of my favorite figures lately. Were you able to check your packaging to see if it happen to fall off in there?

Anyway, I agree with amcgrath929, be sure to check the packaging (if it's still around) to see if it fell off in there...
I cannot count the number of times such a thing has happened to me.

I was planning on quoting that too, sadly it's the first thing I saw when the topic opened.

I had this problem too. The ball joint at the end of Kup's neck likes to snap into the wide open cavity inside Kup's head INSTEAD of the tight socket joint molded for it located at the back of Kup's head. This is a very easy fix. Just grip Kup's head and pull forward, towards his chest, sharply. If you used enough force, Kup's head will "snap" into the correct place and the bobble problem will be gone.
