Now that this thread is cooled down, I feel like to say a thing or two about the figure. Got the metallic version. For sure Roboizer is not the best figure I have at the moment. Quality wise, you couldn't and shouldn't compare it with SOC/SRC figures. It feels kinda fragile in the joints. Since I bought it because of the character...so yeah...I just have to accept it as it is. Not much love from other companies to this character so most likely we won't see another version of Roboizer and Gattaigar.

goldorak how did/will you fix the broken peg? I'm aware of this issue, my friend also broke his. Mine is almost broken after I try to rotate the arm. Guys, be careful.

I used "super glue" , it just hold in place, I won't touch it again, no change, no rotating, this plastic is not the quality we are used with other brands... before fixing it:

@mr. Roboto and goldorakthanks for the heads up guys much appreciated, i wont even change hands just to be safe my anime color version might arrive this week hopefully sadly with all the planing and the time they had they didn't pull out an A class figure i feel like they put every thing they got of the Gattaiger and didn't pay much attention to Roboizer nothing is worse than paying alot for a figure that have some QCs not just any QCs but broken parts QCs you should contact HL Pro and the place you bought it from to see what they can do about it i know its a HUGE pain and the process will be long but at the end you will be like "at least i tired" good luck

first, contact HLpro.. send them a private message on facebook. They got real good customer service. For you guys waiting to get your figures, just hit the hands with a hair dryer or hot water to soften them up, then take them off... after a few times of changing hands, mine got easy to change and I haven't had any problems. They just broke-in after a few times.

It seems that they are using a lower quality of plastic than what we are used to to save on cost and make the highest profit margin possible! This is costing more than 200 $ it shouldn't have such a problem

i really hope thats not the case.....should NOT be cutting corners on joint pegs. thatd b really a tragic mistake.
Joint pegs needs the best best material possible. strong yet pliable alloy or POM or Nylon?

I have at least 50 SoC, and every Saint Seiya Saint Cloth Myth, all with changing hands, and a lot of othzers... sometimes not easy, but never broke one, half of my displays ;-) the plastic is not the same quality ! don't try to change the hands, you don't really need it as he doesn't hold a weapon, etc...and be careful it's still a nice figure but Gin Gin is better quality I think... I've sent an email to HLPro, will see...;-)

goldorak if not the material, then it is the poor joint engineering they are using. They should be thinking ahead when using certain material, to not making the connection too tight or whatever. I had the same problem with brave gokin bosspalder last year. The peg is broken when I changed the hand. I had to get my good friend who knows how to fix this kind of thing, by creating a new implant peg for Bosspalder. Will help to notify HL Pro too for this. Mine is not broken, but I think it's not secure. It feels 'wrong' when I rotated the hand.
