This message is coming from Maketoys website. I've tried my best to put it here. Since I didn't buy the yellow set (but waiting from the green one) so don't really know. I hope this will be fixed in the green.

Image
1: The two L & R hinged flaps which the axis of rotation are usually tight, please try to push it down slowly.

Image
2: Do not bend the elbow without unlock it, Pull the arm to unlock.
3: If the ball-joint is assemblied tightly,to avoid damaging the toy, do not turn the head before the complete tranformation of the chest is done!!
4: If you broken no problem. MT-03C will include replacement parts plan.

It's a good thing to know they're addressing the possible issues here, though I was kind of hoping there wouldn't be any :-(

Oh well, at least it's a tightness issue and not one of looseness.

Plus, they're immediately including replacement bits in the next set before they even get to the customers. Best way to admit to a problem is to already have the solution in place.

It's rather ironic how, way back when the Herc craze was in full swing, and the G.O.M. ("Giant Offshoot Movement", LoL) was just beginning with prototype pics, the main argument over at the SHH! Headquarters (thats the Society of Herc Haters) proclaiming Giant as the superior set was always "QC issues blah blah blabbity blah...shouldnt cost so much and have errors blabbity blab blab..."

..and now the SAME thing is happening to the Giant set.
