FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

They are not of the twisting variety, and they will break off.

I snapped the left hand off as you can probably tell due to this thread creation.

Also, does anyone know how to contact fansproject?

I tried to email them from the website, but i get an auto-reply saying the email address is disabled.

I am one sad panda.

Re: FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

Yup. Someone else in the TFW feedback thread did that too and it snapped right off. They just superglued it back. He's not meant to have wrist articulation.

Re: FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

I didn't think his wrists twisted, glad I didn't force the issue. You might want to try either epoxy or plasticweld to reattach his hand. I find they make a much stronger connection than superglue.

Sorry to hear that buddy, I know the feeling!

Doesn't fansproject have a forum now? Have you tried that?

Re: FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

I guess I will join the forum if I must.

In the meantime, I've e-mailed A3U to see if they have a working e-mail addy for FP.

Re: FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

Ok, so I joined the FP web forum, and it gives me the exact same auto-reply failure.

=(

Re: FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

I just tried twisting them last night! Luckily I did not apply too much pressure. Sorry to hear about your breakage. Maybe A3U have the extra parts and can help you out? TFSource has come to my rescue that way a couple times.

Re: FP CA-03 Thundershred - DO NOT TWIST HANDS

So does FP actually ssend extra bits to the online retailers for just such purposes?

Also, I have managed to super-glue his hand back on, looks fine, except for the giant skin patch i got stuck to the bottom of his hand, lol.

Ow.
