[Mistro]

lmao never really noticed how both names were quite similar. But anyways, I am quite pissed off at the model that I just bought.

A 1/18 scale Maisto Dodge Viper SRT-10. Its a diecast model so I got it together in less that half an hour. The problem? Six pieces are missing!

This includes both side view mirrors, the rearview mirror, the steering wheel column support (the thing with the wiper and light controls) and those little loop things behind the headrests. At first I was planning to just make the sideviews the best I could myself, but then as I realized that more and more parts were missing, I gave up on that idea. I just sent an email to Maisto, but is there anything else I can do?

The store (K-Mart) won't accept it back because the plastic has been opened ... Well no s* ! How do I know that a part is missing without opening it?

Any ideas on what to do? Do you think that Maisto might respond and send me replacement parts?
