Osean Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 (edited) Hey, I got my reissue 1/48 Super/Strike Armor a couple of days ago and I noticed I got two left armor pieces for the arms instead of one right and left. So when in fighter mode the gunpod can only attach to one arm and only one arm can attach to the legs. Did anyone else have any problems with their reissue fast packs? Maybe even someone possibly got two armor pieces for the right arm? Edited October 17, 2005 by Osean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruskiiVFaussie Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Well thats a rip! Can't ask your supplier for a swap? Maybe someone has a spare right one for ya hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF-ZX2 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Yes check to see if your supplier can fix the problem. If that does not work look in this thread http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/index.php?...opic=143&st=380 to see about getting Yamato to "unnofficially" send you the replacement part.

I ordered from BBTS, so they might be willing to rectify the problem. They always did before from previous orders. The problem is that I already stickered it up, cut the missles from the sprue and slapped the armor on my valk before I found out about my problem. I'm kind of reluctant now to take off the armor, ship it back and wait for another set to be shipped to me because my valk is so beautiful w/ it. The arms are able to stay in place even though one doesn't connect to the leg, but sometimes the gunpod pops out while in flight which I could live w/ it I suppose. Hopefully a spare will show up here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was shipped out on a Thursday or Friday and I got it the following Friday. So it took like about a week to get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eternal_D Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 just email him first and explain everything. and instead of shipping all of it back, just send 1 arm armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VF-ZX2 Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 Yes, Joel is a good guy and he will most likely be very helpful and try to correct any problem--even one that was Yamato's fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethuem5 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Agreed. Joel is the man.... he'll fix you up if you talk to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osean Posted October 22, 2005 Author Share Posted October 22, 2005 (edited) Update! Well I sent an email to Joel and this is what he replied: "sorry for the problem, we can send out the correct piece to you, I'll have the warehouse take a look at the set and if they need more info we'll let you know Thanks! Joel www.bigbadtoystore.com" I didn't think Joel would help me out since it was a screw up by Yamato's factory, but man... Joel is truly a cool guy and his customer service is by far, outstanding! Even though his prices aren't always the cheapest, his customer service is the best. Thanks for everyone's input and help.

VF-ZX2 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Yep, he is a great seller. I think it is alright to pay a little more for some great service and cheap shipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osean Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 Got my replacement part today from BBTS! Thanks Joel! As for the new site format... I did not like it at first either, but you guys have to admit its better organized and they have more marcoss stuff, so it just takes some time getting use to it. I wished they stuck w/ their old font for their logo tho because their new one just looks lame. Also it kind of sucks that they don't accept money orders for preorders anymore and the"R, O, L, S AFA" letter system kinda throws me off. Did anybody notice the $234.99 1/48 Roy?

promethuem5 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Wow...there's alot of good stuff there at least. That's an assload for a Roy tho... and 90 bucks for a non FAST Packed YF-21?? I payed that for a FP version and feeled like I overpayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osean Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 That's an assload for a Roy tho.... 339928[/snapback] It has to be a mistake because they were going for $169.99 before the new site went up, and there selling a broken mpc alpha too.

KiriK Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Yea... the new BBTS design is kinda weird getting used to... and maybe a little annoying..... i liked looking at all my choices in 1 list.... even if i had to click it to see if it was available still or not.... i like the pictures though..... eh...

Godzilla Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 The site is ok. At least he tells you what he has opened toy items. He is still a little high in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
