ENTERBAY: Men In Black

[robbiethepainter]

Dude that sucks.

I will definately post pics later today. The elbows are not stiff, just backwards, so just turn them around. But with my bad luck, I goy a K body with 2 right upper arms.

I still do not comprehend what was the point of using a rubber muscle body with this figures. Limits their range of motion .

The J body is tall, taller than a trutype advanced. It might be replaceable with some long arnold ankle pegs. The hips on my J are loose too, but not as much as the knees. But I was able to fix the knees with the super glue trick. Thanks for the tip.

If anyone is looking to get rid of their "K" bodies I'd love to take one off your hands.

It's a shame that we have to resort to "fixing minor issues" and "using glue tricks". Where is the "Passion for Perfection" Enterbay?

 

[Wulf]

If Enterbay wants customers to send back defective items in order for them to receive replacements they must pay for the return shipping cost. It would be absurd for customers to pay for their mistake.

People should open a dispute via PayPal, if there is genuine issues with their figures. There are consumer laws out there. If you pay for something and you receive faulty goods, it should be disputed the same as any purchase.

Screw EB and their rules, see how they like it if Paypal opens several hundred cases against them.

Anyone who knows me on here, knows I'm a big fan of EB releases, but this should not be tolerated. I'm due to receive my set shortly, if there is a problem, I shall contact EB, if I do not get the response that I should, I will be opening a dispute via Paypal.

They have opened a massive can of worms for themselves by selling directly online, it leaves them very vulnerable to their own QC problems. I can see why HT haven't done it.

I kinda chuckled when I saw that in the box. "Perfection my ass"

Looks like EB is taking a page from HT's book- lousy QC.........

Kinda sad to hear about another EB QC fail.

Mine arrived, pretty much straight out of the box pic:

My K's knees are more loose, and need to fix his right foot that was installed sideways. Elbows are tight and need to find the depression to determine how to turn them. In person, K's face paint has patches of red like he has a rash...I also thought J is supposed to be taller than K...Otherwise, things are OK.

 

[Rorywan]

Head sculpts look amazing.

Certainly.

If they don't want to replace my defective parts... it's going to be a real shame to have to open a Paypal case.

Looks damn good.

The Will Smith Headsculpt looks like he has a lazy eye. K looks great though.

I live near 316 and 85. But mine say they are in Metro GA as well

dude...I'm like a mile from 316 and not far from 85....I got mine today as well..
I got double































excited when I didn't get double agents. Got one J and one K. Checked them both out and everything seems in order. Got the letter sheet and the extra guns. First impressions are the headsculpts looks great. The suits look very good too. I didn't get them out of the box yet to test their fragile bodies so I'll do that after I get off work tonight.

Great. Not getting doubles is a good start.

Now, I stripped both bodies. Rubber torso that restricts range of motion even further. Hips and knees on J were like a rag doll, literally. On K, knees weren't as bad, but the glue trick would definately make it better.

As I had done the glure trick on J's kness first, I tried to do it on the hip, but they were not tightening. Since I had to leave, I left it like it was and when I came back, the stupid hips were as hard as a rock amd when trying to turn them, guess what, they broke. I was like x 100000000000....

But I remembere I had a spar African Advanced body with a broken arm and took them both apart completely. For those interested, the rubber torso on the MIB figures is glued on the right side and puts on like a vest and Idid not know the Advance body had a rubber pelvic cover, and makes me think, why does Hot Toys not use that same quality rubber on all their figures.

So what I did was put the hip joints and legs and feet of the advanced on the Enterbay body.

Then, I was looking for a way to make the arms move better so I trimmed the rubber chest where the arms go through and the arms are attached to a piece of plastic with a small screw with a washer, visible only after removing the rubber torso. So that piece of plastic the arms were attched to, I switched sides so that the "wall" on the edge of the piece is towards the outside. I will do this to K later, so I will post pics of this. This just makes the arms hold their poses better and move better.

But yeah, I completely dissassembled two bodies. The funny thing is that I almost threw the Advanced body I had a week ago because of the broken arm, but I thought I might need it later. It has fulfilled its duty. Now I will definately not throw away the spare Pred bodies, armors, and crap I have.

 

[robbiethepainter]

Damn! Missed it by one day. It will be Thursday for me.

 

[Karnis]

Mine sat at ISC NY for 4 days before it went into customs this afternoon, still hasn't cleared customs. Looks doubtful for this week.

Crap.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

My J has a very weak left knee. Didn't get to take K out yet.

Your J looks much better than mine Clau. I may need to contact EB and ask for a replacement J head.
