In all seriousness, though, I'm not sure what you should do. You could try and hash out a DIY solution, or maybe contact the manufacturer and hope for a response, as it seems like a mistake. Don't know if they have anyone who speaks English, though.
I thought no one would speak English, I'm happy to have the figure. My first DIY on a licensed figure. I'll be sure to show you all how it goes!

Sorry about that. I didn't even notice that.
I thought it was just a piece that broke off.

Cant't you cut the peg out with a knife and then glue it to the pedal in the right position?
I doesn't really matter if it gets well glued or not, the figure is static and it seems pretty stable even without the pedal.

A certain someone is starting to send me non-essential random crap as he's done with translations and such. I think I need to install some shelving down in the recording studio to house things like this. I already have my bookshelf up in my loft with the main computer for guide books and the manga (which is now overflowing), but all this stuff? I've got enough
V-Jump issues from over the years to bury a small animal, and now there are all these other magazines...

I got this about a week and a half ago. It was kind of a bitch to put together, but worth the final result.
It stinks that you had that pedal issue Beji...
I have a Dragon Ball collection of sorts which can be seen here.

Literally the third time I have bought this game. Every time I beat it and sell it, I find myself later wanting to play it again.
And now my Kai collection is finally complete

I feel bad for all you guys who don't have a Japanese community nearby to just pick all this stuff up at. I'd hate to wait for Jumps and manga and stuff in the mail.

It's alright (depending on what shipping method you choose). I could go to Book-off in NY or Kinokuniya (thats where I got my other books) but that would be like a 2 hour trip by train. Speaking of...I need to take a trip soon

Your gf is awesome.
I've been eyeing that shirt for a long time myself on RightStuf. They used to have one that was actually the gi top too, and I really wanted to nab that, but I haven't seen it anywhere in forever.

Your X-men purchase and the reasoning behind it has nothing to do with the subject at hand.
