I bought the SDCC Crimson Strike set for my son for Christmas. It was sealed and unopened. I helped him carefully break it out to preserve the packaging. Upon assembly of the Cobra Scythe, we found that the right wing is completely missing the tabs to attach it to the main body of the aircraft. The holes where screws go in don't have any marks to indicate there ever was anything there. Neither the tabs nor the screws are in the box anywhere. The left wing was fully assembled and without defect. Needless to say my son was pretty disappointed to get a one winged aircraft as his big Christmas surprise. Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions on how to go about finding a replacement short of buying another whole Cobra Scythe? I looked for parts on ebay, but got zilch.

Sorry man that sucks to hear. Unfortunately unless there's a tanker willing to break up a set. I don't think you'll find parts. The last time I had a similar issue with an SDCC set that I bought directly through HTS. I was told aside from a return there was nothing I could do. If you bought this on Ebay I would get in touch with the seller. In any case good luck
I hope you get it worked out.

Sorry to hear that, especially for your son.
Aside from the slim possibility of someone having spare sdcc exclusive parts, I would suggest just getting a regular 30th skystriker and use the part you need from it. Resell the rest as custom fodder. |

Sucks that even the SDCC sets have had bad QC recently. You could also try getting in touch with a custom caster and see if they can replicate the tab part for you. It shouldn't be terribly difficult to make a cast of.

Short of getting a replacement from someone, have you thought about gluing it?
