Watched nearmint’s review. Flash turned out great. He’s definitely more upright than the proto but it doesn’t matter. Would love to have him myself.

I’ll give it a shot, but I looked at it closely with the flashlight on my phone and didn’t see an obstruction. I tried to fit it correctly about a dozen times, but couldn’t make it work. I will try, though!

Just be careful, I'm hoping it's something small and just jiggles in.

Great review ‘mint! Sorry you had an issue and hope you get it resolved quickly. I think he looks awesome.

Love the paint and pose. It really conveys movement. I do think I’d like to display him head on like the box art but the depth makes that very difficult.

I’m on the edge of the ordering cliff.

Sometimes I'll take a tiny flat head screwdriver and kind of scrape around at the bottom of the keyhole in case there some paint build up or a small chunk of resin blocking the peg from going all the way in, sometimes it works...

His left arm looks ridiculously long. But when viewed from his right side, it does not. Witchcraft!
