I just got a Misbag one mailed to me that i acquired off ebay....bag was sealed and it came with tf, hand gun, bio card and instructions....the instructions show how to make him a limb using the foot/hand piece.


just wondering....FP never pictured the attendee figure with the BFG part that i why i am wondering WTF?

At the roundtable, they blamed Canada Takara.

yeah, i saw someone post a auction selling a bagged set and warning people to make sure they got a black foot with ravage, apparently there was a issue with the bagged sets not having a BFG for the ravage figure...

Terrorsaur has no hand/foot gun. It was supposed to be there, but isn't.

Ravage's hand/foot gun was not included in the box, but was instead handed out to people at the show.

hopefully FP's one lonely brain cell remembers to put that ravage part into the Iacon packages before they are mailed out to people....

This is the **** that just tweeks the pissed off meter with me....they charge out the Ass to begin with and then when there is a **** they say , NOT MY FAULT !

and nothing gets done to fix it.

they could have easily gotten the hands made for terrorsaur and then mailed the parts via bubble mailer to all their customers.


THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE AND IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO TO FIX A **** UP that got caused to their customers.

Still glad FP is going out the door...maybe with hasbro in the driver's seat the Quality controi standards will improve on the exclusives going into the future.

Takara simply produced the Terrorsaur figure without a HFG.

Though, he isn't supposed to be a combiner component anyway. He's depicted in the comic as a normal, non-combining character, while Ram Horn, Sea Clamp, Cicadacon, Ravage, Tarantulas, Prowl, Silverbolt, Ironhide, Tigatron, and Unit-3 all make use of their combiner gimmick.

Technically, Takara doesn't produce them, their southeast asian factories do.

And frankly, whether the fiction supports it or not, (I'd note that it doesn't say anything about how he can't combine...) all the CW figures should have their corresponding parts.

It should have come with. It didn't. Unfortunate situation, yes. Rationalization not needed.

agreed.

plus since there are ZERO red BFG produced @ retail it's not as easy to swap in an extra for a missing.....

ravage's BFG was black and there are other retail combiner wars that had the same style and color BFG.
