I had to got with BBTS since their store is sold out of Athenas
Did you really order an entire legion? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_legion I would like to see that! 4200 x $30 that would come to $126,000!

Received a pair of King of Asperity figures over the weekend and some of the QA issue warnings are true.
Right out of the blister, one forearm repeatedly fell off (upper arm peg-hole is too wide for the forearm peg) while the other forearm was a mis-matched duplicate of the other (particularly bad since the new elbows only bend forward... as they should). :( Additionally, both rocker ankles are incredibly loose and the 'tiara' was glued on practically sideways. I've never had so many issues with a BFS figure before. I'm keeping the other one carded since it's a 10th Anniversary figure and all, but damn, I hope the 10yr Accord and Asperity Knights aren't equally wonky. |

Those figures look quite nice. I just now ordered the Bard, but I'm not quite feeling the Desert Barbarian.

I'd love for them to strip these down a bit and sell them as basics if they're going to introduce a whole new faction.

The biggest defect I've got was those god damn Ankles. And the armor loves to get scratched. What you described is on a whole another level of QC failure I've never seen before so I'll keep an eye out for it. That is indeed concerning.

Still, BFS made good on sending out replacement parts like they always do, but this '10yr' knight mold and paint execution is disappointing on so many levels. That said, I'm so glad they decided to use the older knight body for General Bah-Sak and King Leonidas. If the older knight body had rocker-ankles and swivel thighs it would be perfect.

Wasn't there a QC issue with a bunch of their Lucha figures that is causing them to hold back on fulfilling the 2nd half of pre orders?
I know I saw on their facebook some people mentioning they wanted refunds/replacements and BFS told them to email them about it. I wonder if there is an issue going on with all the lines. |
