Turtle Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 This was a great wave. All of the mates are of very good quality. No stuck nothing, no paint problems, no missing parts, no loose joints. Just great. I'm very pleased with these mates. They complete the team nicely. (Now gotta find the TRU set.) My only gripes are that Klaue's gun sits very loose in that holster. DST had gotten so good at making snug holsters so when they don't work well, it's noticeable. I would have preferred solid Vision to have a solid cape, but the clear one captures the whispiness of the cape. Heck, even with the clear cape, Vision is my favorite of the wave.

DSTZach Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 A QC issue would have to happen a few or more times. A one-off missing part would be technically classified as an "error." Very few factories use the old-time-movie depiction of quality control, with someone on a stool checking every single item that comes down the conveyor belt. We check batches, and random samplings. An isolated error is one we fix using customer service. But definitely contact CS, shortysben. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have another pack coming in the mail, I'll contact cs if lightning strikes twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glantern Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I found Banner/WM yesterday at the Glen Burnie, MD TRU. A little letdown by no extra arms for Banner, but pleasantly surprised by the extra angry head. AoU War Machine is shinier than IM3 War Machine, and seems to have sloppier paint overall. Cheadle likeness seems closer this time, but I don't care for the expression. Pics: (AoU War Machine on left, IM3 War Machine on right) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Thanks for the pix! Do you have a Selvig to see how close the arms match? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FightTheDead118 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Man the eyes on the war machine really needed an outline, they're completely indistinguishable from the rest of the helmet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valo487 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 The pattern on Selvig is different, it won't work. However, you could replace the entire Banner shirt with Selvig's. Then it works splendidly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selvig the flamethrower. ... God above I'm tired... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Rex Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Anyone else find something missing when opening their wave? Also, my falcap and superior iron mans helmet/masks won't come off? Freezer? Not to make light of your situation, but I think it would be hilarious to paint a little face on the neck ball, it would make the armor look that much bigger!

Pedro Pablumo Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) I found Banner/WM yesterday at the Glen Burnie, MD TRU. A little letdown by no extra arms for Banner, but pleasantly surprised by the extra angry head. You could try the pale blue arms from the Officer Rick Grimes. Not 100% accurate, I suppose, but if you really want a non-lab coat version that's the best I can think of. That extra head is insanely awesome, though.

arnim zola Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 (edited) I went to a new toy reselling shop that opened, (we have like 4 now) and asked about minimates. they had the darktide dvd 4pack, blackbolt 2 pack, wave 16 quicksilver 2 pack, and the swordsman pack. They didnt know anything about minimates and asked whats fair, I said 6 or 7? He said ok sure. Didnt somebody find a sealed aim trooper pack at a flea market recently for $4?
