Bloody hell! Just purchased and built Double HeatMetal, but parts of the Metal half’s arm started crumbling once I tried moving it! Is this a common problem?
Given that I bought this guy while on holiday abroad and that he’s been out of print for a while I’m not pretty sure I won’t be getting replacement parts. I wonder if I may just be safer getting a spare version of a different version of Double and repainting the Metal parts so that they’re made from a less crumbly material. |

Crumbling as in it was brittle and broke down? Could it be something like humidity and room temperature that affected it over time, perhaps? Because a long time ago it happened to me once when I bought a model kit and just had it sitting for months, and when I finally got to it and was building, some pieces crumbled like biscuits.

Please no, I don't want GPS to return.
Edit: Also, any chance for pictures of how it broke? Last edited by Excellionus99; 11-05-2024 at 05:34 PM.. Reason: adding a question |

Is it just me or should we have gotten another FRS Rider revealed (if not released) by this point? Zero One was shown last August and released this January, so that's been at least four months with no news whatsoever.

Shizuoka Hobby Show is next week, so maybe something might be announced then? Would be surprising if they announced Gozyu Wolf out of the blue. If they go with a rider then I'd like to see something new. Heck, gimme Stronger.
