Has anyone else had broken figures from their boosters? I got one booster today (clone lieutenant, wookie scout, Yoda) and the Yoda's attack didn't work at all. Seems like the spring isn't attached. I also noticed one of his hands isn't glued to the saber - is that what they're all like? Also the hand holding the saber seems to come out of the socket very easily. I'm going to contact Hasbro and see if they can get me a replacement. Has anyone else had similar bad luck?

Oh, you bet. My Count Dooku's "clicker" was broken, right out of the box.
I contacted Hasbro (through email on their website), and they are sending me a pre-paid mailing label to send him back to them for a replacement.

I had a chrome yoda and reg. dooku who's upper half was on backwards. I sent them off to Hasbro about a week ago (with the label they send). I'll let you all know how it goes when they arrive.
I hope that Hasbro was caught by suprise at the success of this line and all of the defective figures that have shipped. Even if you don't want to send your figures in and can live with the problems contact Hasbro and let them know. Hopefully this will cause them to put a greater emphasis on quality controll with series 2 and abvove.

My son and I love this game, BUT superglue has been a necessity so far.
We had a clone lt. whose gun cam unglued from his hand (superglued). Our General Grievous also came unglued from his gun (superglued). Plo Kloon would not fire his missile (had to amputate his arm, disassemble it, then put it all back together with superglue). We finally found Darth Vader #16 on EBAY and our first game with him his arm came off (superglued).
Patience is truly a virtue.

My Vader that came in the starter swings like a girl. When I use him I just swivel him around to knock my opponent down.

one reoccuring problem i've found is with backwards striker figures. they come already turned and stuff. my anakin (really called Darth Vader) that came with the starter set is completely backwards, he's totally facing the opposite direction his feet are going. i mean, i can work things out when i want to strike with him, he's just not pretty and Dark Horse, one of Yoda's hands isn't glued to the saber. i've had two and they were both this way.

2 Tarffuls. The first one had a twisted spring right before I even touched it. The other one's striking arm came off in only the second match of his short career. This figure is cursed I tells ya.

Bloody hell. My bad luck continues. I got a whole gang of figures through the post today, and my Ki Adi Mundi has exactly the same problems as my Yoda. Pesky Jedi.

I'm not sure if my Grievous Bodyguards are all bad, or they are just designed poorly??
