Tsutsukakushi wrote:My package was scheduled for delivery today. When I checked the UPS Tracking number a few minutes ago. I got a big surprise. My package is delayed due to the snow weather. So now I've got to wait another day or few to get this package. I'm just hoping the delay doesn't cause UPS to damage the items inside. As UPS is known to rush thing & crush packages in the process. This delayed package has Mania King & the SXS Blitzwing add ons. I'll keep everyone posted on this shipping delay.

Thanks
I received the package from UPS a few minutes ago. Joel From BBTS puts packs items real well with bubble wrap. So it's harder for shipping provider to damage the items inside. The outer brown shipping box was not damaged.
I was surprised to see Mania Kings box not have any sealing clear tape on each side. Mania kings box uses heavy cardboard but the ink looks similar to OTFCC & FT Quakwave's boxes.
SXS Blitzwing upgrade box came in a much bigger,nicer & sturdier box than I thought it would.
That's precisely why I hope Dr. Wu comes out with their upgrade.Banjo-Tron wrote:Let me know what you think of the blitzwing upgrade. I have it and the different purple bugs me.

I'm sorry but my experience is radically different from yours. I've been buying items from HK, China and Japan since I got my first salary and I've never had that kind of problem, as long as I choose and pay for registered airmail or simply buy from a seller I already trust. Being from Spain, it would be impossible to collect TF toys without buying from overseas sellers. Besides, it's usually much cheaper for me to buy from China or HK than the US.
Recently I started getting my items from Kapow (UK) as well, in order to avoid customs.

Agreed, every experience I have had with Chinese or HK sellers has been positive. Quick postage, and well-packaged items. I normally get lumbered with customs charges when I buy from the US so I avoid it.

I've had good experiences with Chinese and HK sellers as well. Tend to go with them because the U.S. sellers always charge outrageous prices for shipping.mooncake623 wrote:Banjo-Tron wrote:synapse wrote:Tsutsukakushi wrote:Ebay overseas sellers near or from the Hong Kong region do not package collectibles items that great. once they get your money then they could care less how the buyer recieves his package.

Yep. I've got nothing but positives with my experiences from overseas sellers. But than again I wouldn't risk buying this figure (if i was interested) for $15 less but no protection if there are issues and or broken parts.

That said I had to do some fixes to him, to get him working right.
First off his knees would not pop out to swing the barrel shins back around the other way to form the cannon barrel. I had to unscrew his legs and knees to get at the peg and knee piece to sand them down. Unfortunately the screws suck and strip easily. I stripped one screw ... luckily I was able to drill it out and substitute another one back in with no damage to the fig. I was lucky.
Second the cannon barrel in gun mode made by his shins wouldn't peg together, I had to shave down his crotch piece so his legs would stay closer together so when pegged in it would stay.
Third, in step 13 you have to fold his back down and peg into his waist. That peg is quite large and requires way too much force to get in, I had to sand that down.
Lastly, his head leaned to the left and wouldn't stay straight so I had to sand some of the inside of the head to get it to stay straight.
I don't want to deter anyone though, because now he is fixed he is quite stunning. I wouldn't say the plastic quality is the best, but I feel confident he will survive a lot of transformations as long as I am careful.

"Lots of QC issues"

"Lots of QC issues"![]()
If MMC released something like this everyone would be up in arms about all the QC issues and demanding everyone boycott them! Even TFC produce MUCH better quality figures than this yet they get blasted constantly!
For ages many were calling for 3P companies to get their act together and improve the quality of their products, which many of them did, then **** like this comes along and everyone is, blahblahblah-QCissues-blahblahblah, but it's okay!!!
I've helped to encourage the dodgy releases by buying a few of the KFC cassettes and regret it, but at least I won't let the QC issues slide, but where does it end? A transforming toy won't transform until it is dismantled and sanded down, I'm sorry, but that's unforgivable in my book
