Items Ordered:

• 1 of : TKLUB FOUR - RONIN TK SUN

Got my floppy bastard today, looks great but can't stand or do fucking anything other than flop forward or back. And wasn't Deathmask supposed to come with red grenades! Like the 1:1 Deathmask shirt that came in the red Deathmask grenade container, worst figure I've ever gotten from any company, this I'd expect from a $10 toy not for what I/we paid for this useless crap.

Don't be too frustrated, email to CS the figure and they will send u the replacement body once it is done. Cheers

Yeah I know, I've emailed CS and am awaiting their reply. I'm just a big kid looking forward to his new toy then it arrives broken. I'll be alright whenever the new body arrives (as long as it's not another year).

CS wrote me back, they're working on replacement bodies (and a replacement head for mine) and should be sending them out soon.

Shame about the QC, the hands keep dropping off on mine but I'm working on it with cling film. No fixing the body though but I am a patient guy (you kinda have to be when dealing with 3a) I would have liked a skull symbol on the chest plate but no biggie and I would have liked the red grenades. Such a near miss but if they come through with a new body that doesn't require too much disassembly/reassembling then I'm sure this guy can regain his top spot.

So confusing... my order history reads "TKLUB FOUR - RONIN TK SNOWBLIND"
Seriously I am going to use this for dispute if 3A tries to invalidate my SB purchases towards the TQ

^ You can try to dispute it, but it was 100% said from the first announcement for Snowblind that he didn't count towards the Klub since he wasn't a 3AA-exclusive..
On the blog, in the forum and on Bambaland.

Same here, floppy as fuck.

Do we still need to send video of the floppy body and, if so, do we send the video as an attachment or do we need to post in somewhere and send CS a link to it?

They will need something other than just email, I sent them a youtube video link

Phone attachment or you can also send a few photos

Just make sure the back/tank is off in them so they can see that the body is defective

Thanks Wutasi and Gregory!

Oh man that sounds like so much work, I mean they were the ones at fault in the first place. I sent a pic of mine but I have no idea how to send a video link. And it is such a pain to strip down my new TK to remove the tank etc. This sounds like make enough hoops to jump through and eventually they'll give up. At the moment I'm trying to find a pose that I can leave him balanced in but for now I'm not removing anything and am not going to learn how to post a video, as I said I'm the customer who received a faulty product, they should be jumping through hoops to keep me happy. I've been 3aa for 4yrs now, have never asked for much/anything until now and have spent hundreds/thousands of dollars with this company. At the end of the day I only want the figure I bought and paid for almost a year in advance.

They require photos or video(optional) so they know the person actually has the figure in hand

I sent a video. They replied a few days later..it was a pretty easy process. Still sad it's floppy..but at least a makegood is coming.

Sorry Gregory, didn't realize it was you. I've always been very supportive to you Gar and Gimby and appreciate all you guys do. I hate to keep complaining but 99.9% of my dealing with 3a has been beyond positive. I've sent a photo so wait and see. I'm just a big kid who wants his toys.

Also sent my email to CS with vid.
How can an entire crew of toy box stuffers not notice that all the figures they're packing are floppy ?
Boggles the mind it does.
I think from now on when we all order from Bambaland there is a box on the order page for a message.
We should all write in the box "CHECK FOR FLOPPY BODY OR LOOSE JOINTS" from now on because it seems no one there is reminding them to do so.

Had a chance to open my heavy slicers today. Yep, floppy bodies. And deathmask has a busted left arm too - ugh. I also only received 6 unpainted grenades with each figure. Its a shame because otherwise I really like the way they turned out - and I generally don't like the long faced TKs. Guess I'll be sending pics off to CS.

There's a joke in there somewhere.

I thought mine had a floppy body, Then I took the battery pack off and saw that the joints were all good. it was that large-ass pack that made the body seem loose.

I wonder if people are ignoring the stand and expect him to to stand on its own with that heavy pack on its back.

let me guess the huge backpack is vinyl...? isnt there another material that would have been better cuz its lighter?

reminds me of the heavy bram rpg.

They probably went with vinyl 'cause it is lighter. I think the only other option was to make it out of fabric.

yeah? not thin hollow pvc?

i.e. i have some pvc hollow model kits that are light as a feather.

PVC huh? Didn't think about that. I thought about ABS or styrene. But I think styrene would be too fragile and either break during shipping or someone's heavy hands. ABS or PVC don't know too much about. Do they function well with paints?
