Brand new Shaman missing something very important!

#1

Post by Mushroom »

Just got this brand new Shaman and it’s missing the Spydiehole! :thinking

Do they all come like this now or should I just return this for a new one?

Honestly, that's badass.

I'd keep it and use it as-is (or for a collection if that's your thing), but I can see why one would return it for a "standard variant".

Surprised to see it past QC and shipped from the factory, nonetheless.

I guess only the ones in MangaSlice come like this - a steel that actually refuses to let a hole get drilled into it... viewtopic.php?p=1777978#p1777978
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):

Everyone knows the Shaman is a front flipper. No one needs the shaman hole. Rolling CQI change.

@weeping minora :winking-tongue Sorry, I couldn’t resist!

@JSumm :rofl When I first heard that the Shaman could be front flipped I had to check and try it for myself. Well I can confirm that it is in fact able to be front flipped. :nerd

If this ever actually happened the price out in the collectors’ market would be through the roof.

I agree! I would love to find a blemish of this magnitude for the collection.
