Yours has the plastic abs too right?

Burning crotch?!

Probably one of the figures where the suit was deforming near the shirt/pant merge.

If requesting for a replacement body, did Hot Toys request you to destroy the defected one?
This question is for anyone who recieved the new body.

 

[Geil]

I think they only allowed this for the very first few bodies. By the time I requested my replacement during the second batch they already insisted on sending the body back. I was so counting on being allowed to cut it up so I can make the armor cabinet

 

[MaulFan]

I don't get the change really, I can't see what benifit it is to Hot Toys getting the figures back, unless they think people would fake photos or something and with the numbers of requests, they didn't want to chance people scamming them.

 

[Antronus]

Thanks for the reply guys, I can understand why Hot Toys would want you to send the defected body, I would prefer doing that instead of destroying the body.

Finally sent mine back today and before boxing it up I removed the makeup pad via Crows method and noticed that the rubber on the pants was corroding away and so was the paint on the abs. Suki from Hot Toys assured me the new suit I will get will be leak free so Im happy for that just a bit nervous till its back in my hands though.

I think it's also a measure to prevent some customers from going through with this exchange to save some money. I can at least recall a few cases here where ppl are not going through with the RMA process due to the shipping cost.

 

[vodoun]

Geil, plus the risk of import taxes but first I need word back from Hot Toys before I can send anything anywhere.

 

[Geil]

I had RMA resulting in import taxes before and Canadian Customs/courier service requires that the documentation clearly states that the item is shipped free of charge due to RMA and should not result in customs therefore. Well I got screwed that one time as I got the runaround and lost $110 on a RMA on a LCD TV

The underlying TrueType is still completely useable.

 

[vodoun]

Still no word back from Hot Toys. A week tomorrow. :/

Not if you destroy it, which I'm sure is part of the list of what you must destroy in that scenario.

How does sending it back in the mail destroy it?

you can probably wait another week I've waited almost 2 weeks for their first reply.
4 days have gone since they've replied to my mail with their investigation. I really don't understand what they're making there and why it lasts so long. They really give me the feeling as I want to cheat them. "What? Oil leaking? That's not possible"

I thought you meant collectors could find a way to just destroy the suit and keep the body and that HT changed policy so customers weren't having spare TTs, now I get what you meant.
