1/6 The Dark Knight: Batmobile - Tumbler (relaunch)

Re: Hot Toys The Dark Knight: Batmobile - Tumbler (relaunch)

BBTS has officially pissed me off. i pre-ordered this many months ago and after charging my card, they still haven't shipped for one week now. i also noticed my order is now listed as sub-standard condition, yet they have it in stock in standard condition. i didn't order substandard...never would. the original packaging is part of the value.

difference is, the collector box may have been crushed or damaged. when i pre-ordered, it was $30 less than retail. now that it's going up in value, they figured they could sell me a sub-standard because i paid less. nice bait and switch BBTS.

Broken fins, scratched paintjob, backwheels off, exhaustpipes off. entire back-pieces off, etc etc.

how do you remove the red pegs from the front tires?

I cant seem to get the red pegs out of the tires they are at the top of the wheel

were they supposed to be in the hole in the lower part of the wheel?

they seem to snug to pull out

Rock the wheel back and forth while trying to pull out the pin.

Is there an easy way to put the red "breaks" back on the rear wheels ?? I tried but it seems I just can't put them back there is really little space there in that zone.

Anyone what do you think of using this table for a stand ?

I am pretty sure you have to align two holes without actually seeing the inside one in order to get the pin to go in again.
