Hot Toys – MMS204 - The 1/6th scale ED-209 Collectible

[5x10]

I agree it's the glue
Many pics showing the front of eds dome cracked
Mine is already separated from the plastic frame, only time before the rubber cracks due to not having a frame to support it

 

[DiFabio]

The torso on them were sculpted rubber, as were the joints. Basically all the black sections you see on Robo were rubber.

 

[EndoSickness]

Just checked mine yesterday, with little cracks showing up at the upper seem of the dome.
Will again later on the legs.
S***storming HT´s fb´s the way to go.
They just HAVE to react, otherwise major reputation is going to turn negative...

looks like this time they took a wrong figure to **** up

 

[EndoSickness]

Well of course, man.
It´s the 2.0, they just HAD to learn, or is it just plain ignorance, or what?

 

[Eisselmann]

Oh man...

 

[Rorywan]

I'm not even gonna check mine, I know it's happening.

 

[EndoSickness]

Same here, guess so too and like I read a few pages back:
A new dome doesn´t cut at this point.

Hi guys.

We got an answer from HT.

They are aware of the issue and apparently investigating.

They want all affected owners to send them an email with pictures (and I would suggest also a copy of the sales receipt) to their support email adress [email protected]

Let's see what happens then.
It's worth a try.

 

[EndoSickness]

Thx, Chris.
Will do once the problem worsens...

 

[CollectorGuy]

yeah mine still looks pristine but I can see very tiny cracks on my dome, its inevitable now.
IF it was just the dome I could at least get a plastic one put on it but the other rubber parts I cant do **** about.

 

[EndoSickness]

Yeah, same here.
On the upper part, near the seam.
But it´s difficult to get a shot of´em, so I have to wait a bit...

 

[CollectorGuy]

Well maybe we can get anthropoid to make custom silicone rubber replacements for the other rubber parts too

It sounds great!
I hope HT will do something.
I'm in Europe I just cancelled mine, sorry for it I really waited long time for this figure but I can not take the risk.

 

[olbertfrog]

Good news.
Now the waiting game begins...

That's the usual response they give. If they were really serious they'd post acknowledging the issue on their FB frontpage.

 

[Eisselmann]

Yup. Somehow I also see it that way...

On the other hand what else should we do?

I think we should post pics of the figures on their FB site so it's public.

 

[franpincho]

Totally, I would if mine was damaged, but it isn't showing anything yet...

 

[CollectorGuy]

mine isn't showing anything yet either, god I just wish there was something that could be done.
I mean sure if they had used plastic for dome that would have been better, but what could have
been used for the other rubber parts?

 

[holtrax]

That is the problem with this figure. The fact that it must be poseable means ht were probably limited in the materials they could have used. Chronicle collectibles effort will be much more studier because they have it in a static pose.
