I think buying new parts and getting a working system would be better than trying to get the parts I have working again.@Davidjones88 can you sell the EL replacement panels, updated LEDs and circuit boards on your site again???
4 and a half months later of QC'ing ( in part due to waiting for the updated led version ) I got my approved shoes through the post. Honestly I dont know how you guys seem to get near perfect shoes going by your photos. This is my third pair and all have silly problems that shouldnt be there.
This time round I think both me and sneakerahead where getting fed up of going round with the QC and accepted these as didnt look the worst pair from what id been shown.
When they arrived I was a little disapointed to find the box torn right along the hinge which I doubt was done in transit however the main thing is that upon checking out the shoes there is something going on with the tounge, the leather has sort of bobbled up into loads of little dots all over it. There also appears to be some sort of mark on the toe .
Ive asked them if they have any ideas on how to get rid of the bobbling on the tongue and figured someone on here may be able to give some advice ? , I just give up on getting a nice pair now.

WOW, just wow. So these are the very first pair this forum saw last year?
They have all those figures at my local Zing Pop Culture store, but did they make a Marty from 2015? That would be a keeper.
Nope. This was a perfectly good shoe. It was sent to me as a replacement for a show that I was able to fix. This one had the slightly darker grey fabric from the second release. I used it as a test shoe but then decided to take it apart.
They never made any 2015 BTTF Reaction Figures.
Test a small area that you can't see with acetone. So long as it doesn't eat the material, you should be right to clean the tongue and it might clean off those bumps. Much better than cutting them off as has already been mentioned @NickyMabbs.
I always (since the V2's) used these special insoles with framing plastic that would have covered the lumps made by those clips, that's probably why they never bothered me.Probably best to leave it then.
So after pulling the batteries, I had tucked the little connectors into the battery recess before inserting the foam. I wore them all day yesterday and it is amazing how much more comfortable they are without those small lumps (the connectors) under your feet. Even though the sole is made with a recess for those clips, they never actually sat in there and I could feel them underfoot.

I just talked to a customer service rep on sneaker ahead. I asked if they would consider selling the v3 electronics again and they said they likely wouldn't. But they said if anyone was willing to order in a large quantity they would put them in contact with the manufacturers. Do you think enough members need electronics for there v3s?
