Hey,

As we have our first batch of MakeToys GIANT Type-61 in hand and on sale we would like to pass along that MakeToys has assured us that no Type-61's were released with any known QC issues, the ones purchased at TFcon and that are available from our on line store and retail location are the same as what other retailers will be receiving. We have personally opened two from the same shipment (one for the store, the other because its awesome) and they have both been solid as a rock with no issues what so ever.

Cheers,
A3U

Thanks for the input. Good to know the QC issues have been looked after.

[Sideswipe]

Thanks A3U for the update, I feel better now as I bought mine at the show, so no receipt.

What exactly was the QC issues experienced anyways, and was it related to Green or Yellow Giant?

so....has anyone heard anything about their green giant from automaton toys yet? =(

[joshimus]

They are expecting it in at anytime. We will probably get more information next week cause I think their vacations ends tomorrow. I dunno. We'll find out soon enough I am sure.

Are the delayed till September now because of the sticky instructions to or some other qc issue?
