Bought a CPR Space Invaders plastics set a month ago direct and finally had the time today to install it. Figured I'd clean the game and wax while I was at it. After peeling off the paper and starting at the bottom, I realized I was shorted the biggest piece, "the clone chamber". What a bummer after all that work. Emailed them, didn't expect a reply quickly as that is the norm. Anyone else experience this?

I had a set of plastics arrive with a broken piece once. I contacted them and they sent a replacement from another set that was rejected because of defects elsewhere in the set. It took a while to get a response and the replacement, though.

I had exactly the same plastic missing in the set I got with a machine I bought from a guy. He sold me the machine with the "new" CPR plastic set still in the package and when I finally got around to messing with the machine I discovered that plastic was missing from the set?

Please post how you make out with them on this. I doubt they will do anything for me but I would love to know how you do with them resolving your issue.

I got one way back in the day that has cracked at the screw holes all to high heaven. I'm sure they're better now but at the time that left a bitter taste in my mouth for their stuff, especially when the ugly repros I got from South America at least didn't crack.

Still no response from CPR. Frustrating to say the least.

Follow up. Kevin is sending a replacement. If you buy a Space Invaders plastics set I suggest you open it immediately and check for the largest piece. Per the email:

It doesn't go in the bag
(doesn't fit) and requires Thomas (the packer) to manually grab one and
tape it into the box. Looks like he forgot.
