This is incredible work! I was contemplating doing the same thing but worry damaging it during drilling those same holes. Mega props to you for a job well done!

As someone that always takes the plunge to modifying things, I went ahead and yanked the mp3 cover off. It’s glued on. Inside I was surprised to see an off the shelf $2 mp3 player used. There is a micro USB input that is covered, audio output jacks, and even a spot to solder wire for a battery...

So I had this same issue at first where the headlights would be on briefly and then just turn off and the rest lights also dim. Brand new batteries. When I switched out the new batteries all was fine again. If you want to check if there is any loose wires other than under the hood, you can...

Also part of the crooked logos club here. In other news, rewired the rack and inside and reconfigured it to power via a single USB cable. Next step would be to power the LED strip as well. (Also, I intentionally unhooked rear light bar motor)

Similarly, I can’t quite fix the crooked stickers so I’ll also need to live with it. In other news, since BW didn’t give us interior lights, I lit it up myself. I think it looks pretty good. Maybe even better with a warmer white.

After seeing their video, my issues have become rather “minor”. They have a loose gunner seat and even more crooked logos.

So I finally opened it up and I’m pretty disappointed with the quality control. - Door magnet fell off. - Front windshield misaligned. Tried to bend it back in place but it wouldn’t budge so didn’t want to risk damaging it. - Hood trim glued incorrectly as well. The battery door is also all...

Phoebe would be a must. That gunner seat just feels so empty without the actual person utilizing it. Fingers crossed there’s a chance someone makes her.

Like Marty once said, “This is heavy”, I echo that statement. This was so hard to get up the stairs alone. I can’t believe 30 of those 73 pounds are just from packaging. Be careful! (1:18 for scale)

Mine is also coming Monday and I live just a few hours away from their warehouse. Originally said delivery Saturday too and suddenly changed to Monday. Fingers crossed for no defects!

My order there is “processing” as well. Looks like they have more in stock.

Loosen to rotate down, then you can tighten it a tad back up to close the gap that happens during the rotation. With the new one, I doubt the same issue will occur anyways! Loosen to be safe, tighten to set it in place so the wheel doesn’t wobble.

Good question! At first I was pulling at it with my fingers but it wouldn’t budge. I didn’t want to pry it off so I took a glue stick, melt one end, then take that end and stuck it on one side of the grill. Let it sit and dry. Pulled the glue stick. Bam. Came out easily. (little trick I saw...

Unfortunately I wouldn’t know. Maybe check the usb cable or power adapter you’re using? I’ve heard a report or two of the USBC port not working on this one too. If you have a volt meter, I’d check the output with a known working USB c cable and adapter connected. Good luck.

I sure hope it arrives this month.

I’m going to assume that’s what going through time causes. Speckles!!

I can promise you that getting the hood off is the actual hard part. The wiring is straight forward once you understand how poorly hot toys “designed” the circuitry. It’s literally a splitter into a splitter into another splitter. 😂

Make sure the power out is going to the switch. Basically USBC goes to the power circuit and BATTERY pack goes to power circuit. The power output goes to switch. This is the default. Hot toys did a lazy job with the circuit design.

Plug your battery compartment cable back here. This is the original location. The connector on the left is power output from your battery or USBC power source.

I see you plugged in the battery compartment cable into the LED1 circuit. The one on the hood you removed. Pull that out and you should be good. Are you using USB C to power the vehicle correct? That’s the way the steps were made so the battery compartment won’t be plugged in anymore or it can...
