hi guys. i recently bought a mp-01 re-issue. ;D it's a good toy overall but i just cant stop thinking if any of you guys who own one (first run or re-issue) encountered the same defects/flaws i did. first some paint chips here & there especially the crome parts & the die cast legs. second, the left left doesnt seem to hold on to its groin socket as well as the right leg. so it tend to fall off if its left side skirt is lifted. >:(any solutions to this? im afraid i might put permanent damage if i twist it around some more. and third, its left foot disconnects from its socket from time to time especially when i twist it to transform. ???thanks for your inputs in advance...  |

Congrats on your MP-01 purchase Regarding the defects you've mentioned, mine didn't have those issues on the paint chips and loose joints. The joints in the groin area are tight enough to keep the legs from flailing around. I'm not sure if it's possible to tighten the joints as I haven't inspected them that much. On the other hand, the feet on my MP-01 also tend to pop-off once in a while whenever I twist it. My MP-01 was a first-run release btw. |

Nope. Never had that problems. Minor paint chips I think I have which I believe the most common problem

my friend's reissue's right leg pops out too. somethin wrong with the ratchet joint. as for mine, i had problems retracting the left leg's thigh while transformiong so i opened it. i believe tightening the leg screws would solve the popping toe/foot problem. if anyone knows how to fix the leg/ hip ratchet joint, i'd really appreciate it.
