Has this happened to anybody else's Piccolo?: Attachment DeletedI mean he's fallen over a few times but I always check afterwards to see if there's ever any damage and there hasn't been. I've also began to notice the same kind of red markings on some of my sh figuarts power rangers hands. I guess the red is the color of the actual mold. I'm sure I could easily paint them white but it's just like wtf. Also, on some of the faces on my Gohan figure the paint has rubbed off as well. I really can't figure out why this happens so easily. My only guess is that some of the interchangeable parts rub and bump into each other in the plastic storage compartment bin I keep all my extra parts in. I used to carry all that stuff in plastic baggies but that was getting annoying and I thought this would be the best way to store the extra parts, maybe I need one of these but it has felt or soft fabric in the inside, lol. Sorry if this is nit-picky, I'm sure I can just add a little paint and these problems be fixed, just a little bit annoyed that this happens. Heres the pictures so you know what I'm talking about: Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted |

I keep all the extra parts inside the original plastic container from inside the box. I feel like it's safest that way. I've never had any paint rub on my DBZ figures, a little bit on my Zero Type 2 from Megaman X but that was on his hand where the sword gets taken in and out fairly frequently...

I had a similar thing happen to one of my vegeta faces when I was making a silicone mold. Normally things come out fine but this time he came out with a little freckle where a tiny spot of paint came off. Just wear and tear I guess. Gotta be careful, definitely get a soft cloth or bubble wrap, don't group them all together or they'll rub.

Those form fitting packages keep them in place. |

I highly recommend leaving all Ur extra parts and pieces in the original packaging when not in use like everyone said. Also u can prob get those marks off of piccolos cape with a gum art white eraser but u will have to be very careful on how hard u bare down with it and idk about it on that cape because it has the shading on it and it might take that off but it's worth a shot just go slow and easy and judge the results before proceeding. Hope this helps  |

It sure would be weird if the plastic was really all red. That's really unlikely to me, but idk. Iamreaper would know best since he customizes and they surely don't paint areas not meant to be seen.

I just got a brand new Re-Issued SSJ Goku a few weeks ago and opened him up yesterday. To my surprise, straight out of the package his left arm came off at the bicep (Like as if you would take Piccolo or Cell's arms off to put on the crossed arms). I didn't think anything of it. So I put it back on and set him down to take a look at his hands, faces etc. I pick him back up a minute later and the arm fell off again. Once again, I put it back on. The stupid thing would not stay on no matter what. If you try to pose the upper half of the figure the arm falls off. It was frustrating. Then today as I was trying to think of ways I could fix it, and then I bumped the right arm and It easily fell off too! Both arms will not stay on the bicep pegs no matter what I do. I can't do anything with the figure without the damn arms falling off! Did anyone else experience this? Also is there any way to fix it? I tried calling Bandai but they said they can't help me if I got the figure off Amazon.  |

That's weird. If you put a tiny drop of super glue on the pegs and smear it around with a toothpick or the nozzle of the glue, that should work. You need to do this on the sides of the pegs, the glue will add girth (make them bigger around) to them. Just don't put the arms back on until the glue has thoroughly dried, which can take an hour or more if you never stick anything to the glue (and if it is old).

I've heard that a lot about the reissue. Mine has that issue as well.

Yeah same thing happens to me. Thankfully Branjita is here for us. By the way I called Bandai and told them what happened, and they said even though it was a brand new, sealed figure, I have to return it to Amazon because it wasn't purchased through them. Then I contacted Amazon and they said I have to return it to Bandai because it was their fault it was a manufacturer defect. AHHHHHHHH SO FRUSTRATING! I guess I'll have to try the glue method. Thanks again Branjita!

This must be a recurring problem with reissue.
