About once every year or so I'll put in an order to Privateer Press Online Store to get parts for conversions, lost / broken part replacements, etc.
I usually save the order for when I have to place a replacement parts request when I get miscasts, that way I can tell them to combine the two into one shipment and save Privateer Press on shipping costs. Usually all of this need for replacement and purchased parts comes to a head at around the same time for some reason.
Now, I got a plastic Victor that I'm putting together, and I lost one of the side struts that go on either side of the groin piece. (Yes, I was a stupid kommander...) Thing is, you can't order the pewter ones from the old Conquest kit on the Online Store. What can I do?
So, along with a replacement Strakhov2 body (bad casting on the face and left shoulder) and alt. Pistol Wraith bottom (undercast) I asked for a replacement plastic strut for the Victor (fat chance, right?) or a pair of pewter struts from the old Conquest kit (more likely.) Worth a shot, right?
Privateer Press came through for me: the sent me a replacement plastic strut! I don't know if they cannibalized a plastic kit or what, but I am so happy! I better glue that strut on before I lose it also!
Thanks Privateer Press!
Now, if you'll excuse me, I also need to get back to work on my Bombshell Battle Mechanik Officer and my "classic" Malice (enhanced with extra souls from the Death Jack and Gaspy2) as well as other stuff. You know, like a Victor...

Awesome people.
