 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...

We have a quaint saying over in the UK which I think applies to this scenario . . .

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.
