Post CLUMSY FINGERS?? BREAKING CHEAP TOYS
FUCK

i break the foot off my semi ningen

i break the leg off a green lantern figure

the arm of one of my dehara butchers is hanging off

now i fuckin break the leg off my new micro batta!!!

i just moved the leg up and it falls off in my hand. this is bullshit!
i really don't think i am that much of a clumsy brute. i pay too much for this shit for it to fall apart in my hands like this.

now this piece of shit will be shunned to a life out of sight until i figure out a way to fix it or whatever.

sucks

jeez, hercules...you need to lay off of the finger excercises!!

that, or turn up the heat a bit so that your toys aren't so brittle...sometimes saving money on utility bills isn't really that cost effective! ;)

on the bright side, my glue stock is rising...

I broke the handle of the cassette/stereo accessory of my bxh cmc kid---people should really be careful when handling it---it easily snaps when it falls with the figure.

i might be able to fix your batta.. can you post a pic?

I have 3 sets of them & have a few that were broken in box but I may be able to swap a good leg out to you..

they are very fragile but being a long time micronauts fan they are amazing to me.

I'm sure I have no idea what this means but you can bet I'm going to be saying it every chance I get.

Good luck Pickle. You are the brute squad.

I think the newer Microman stuff has QC issues with breakage like this...I had a few newer pieces do the same thing.

Well, how awesome would that be, actually?
Snap pics of that happening, and you'd have a spectacular plot point for your next photo-toon.

I think I have had more Medicom "toys" break on me than any other company. The 12 inch figures scream break me when you even try to get them out of the box. :(

So disgustingly true- Medicom "Big Chap" Alien I coveted for so long and finally scored? Broken within ten minutes out the box, in the course of normal posing. I'm fairly certain I screamed. I love their line of Shocker baddies, and wish I could collect them...but the two I happened to buy broke fairly immediately, as well.
