Yes. I saw that too. Only took 2 years, right?

Yes. I saw that too. Only took 2 years, right? Well, they refused the first shipment because they had the same problems as the wings that came with the figure. Hope this means that the new ones are better.

They will not be better. I have not read anything anywhere that said that Fewture actually fixed the wings. They just sent out a second set of the original ones. I hope you are right and they are actually fixed, but I'm not taking the chance of moving them even one micrometer until I take them appart and see for myself. }D

Ok, needing actual help here. Got the wings out, but can someone snap a quick pic of what parts of these are the actual screw covers.

Here you go. I haven't fixed it yet because I'm still figuring out if I want to add some small metal pins/tabs in the cylinder that broke off to make it more sturdy than just putting it back together with glue/epoxie. But these should give you an idea of what pieces you need to take off for disassembling the wing completely. This is the cylinder that breaks really easily because it is too thick for the wing part with the ring to rotate on it (needs to be sanded down a little): Hope these help! }D

That is PERFECT! Exactly what I'm lookign for! Thanks!
Just couldn't figure out which part of which end was the cover because it all looks really cohesive.

It took me a little while to figure it out, and gather the courage to start prying them off. But I figured they were broken anyway so I had nothing to loose... }D

What do you mean by better? Better color? Better (smoother) articulation? Both? ;D

That's great news! Maybe Fewture did fix the wings after all. I hope my replacement set from BBTS is as good as yours. }D
