got both of my BBQs today! he was always one of my favorite RAH figures so I really like this figure.
My only complaint is that his head is too small. We have to remember that there is a head inside there so the helmet should be bigger to be able to fit over, and not the same size as a head would be. Also, I am not happy with his boots - they are too slim. He uses Destro's body, but they could have given him different boots. I am thinking I will swap his boots with a more bulky pair .. not sure whose yet |

Found Breaker in the wild! If you're hunting for him at the physical store, be sure to check the figures in electronics, as that's where I found mine.

My Barbecue was delivered today, unfortunately mine has a factory error!! The port on one end of the hose is missing so it only attaches on one end (see photo). I wasn't sure what was going on at first, so I watched MCU Collector's review on YouTube and noticed that his hose is symmetrical. I'm going to have to look for this in-store and try to find one with a properly molded hose. Be careful of this if you go looking for him! The batch code on mine is 11951 if that matters to anyone. Also his head comes off way too easily.

Yeah I don't know that companies really have parts these days. I had a star wars item awhile back with a part missing so I contacted them and they sent out a different star wars item as compensation. It was something that I didn't have, but also something I didn't really want. Also I've heard from others that if you do this too often they just say sorry and won't send anything. I'll probably just end up ordering another one from Target and keeping it boxed or repainting one of them.

My BBQ also has a loose head. Is it possible to just use a small drill bit, or even better a hot leather needle to poke a hole in the rubber? You could probably find a away to Jerry rig it.

Oh, definitely. I've done quite a bit of repair on figures. What I would probably do is hand drill a small hole into the backpack. Either next to the existing peg or cut that peg off. In the hole I would glue a small steel wire. Then either push the wire into the bad end of the hose or drill a small hole if necessary.
That said, if he's easily available I think I would be happier just to buy another. |

I just ordered another one. Saw that SW Black Series "Droids" Boba Fett was available for pre-order again (missed him when they first went live) so added both for free shipping. Also looks like Python Patrol figures are available for preorder right now if anyone is still looking.
