There seems to be a slight tilt on my copy, I haven't noticed it until you mentioned it, thou I think its down to the piece that the head is connected to the body on!
Pretty sure mine is good
Her head does very noticeably snap into position when facing forward. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Yeah, mine does the same. It doesn't tilt, but there is an almost 'ratchet' like notching that can be felt when turning the head. More noticable when turning it to the right then the left.
Just got my Override today. The head snaps into place facing forward on mine as well. It's not a strong enough effect to prevent having her look just off center or anything, but it definitely wants to center itself if you don't override it.
No QC issues on mine of any sort. No lean to the head, no floppy joints, etc. My only complaint is about how the gun handle is too short to properly seat itself in her hand. I wonder if the plastic at the back of the gun that collides with her arm was a late addition to strengthen it for some reason, or if the TT engineering team just screwed up that badly with the post length.

Just to be clear, the robot head on my Override does snap into position when facing forward. I suspect that all copies are supposed to do that. But mine does it while also tilting slightly to the right, a tilt that it cannot stop doing, which strikes me as something it probably shouldn't be doing.
I'm hoping that the reason we haven't seen Shadow Striker leak yet is because she actually has new tooling unlike Crasher.
Even though I have no clue if that's how things works.

After the surprise of Override and Cosmos being new molds and not remolds like planned; I'm not sure we can rule anything out if Takara's guys get inspired.
My Override just shipped from Walmart.
Burnout and Cosmos still MIA.
Burnout and Cosmos still MIA.
Now Burnout has shipped.
Come'on Cosmos, you can do it!
Come'on Cosmos, you can do it!
Is it weird that Takaratomy is calling him scourge?
Oh right, they're also going with Override over Nitro Convoy

Brand unity? Laziness? Both?
Just got a shipping notification for Cosmos!
I'm glad not to have to be checking the store anymore!

Fingers crossed that it's actually Cosmos.
I don't rule anything out with Walmart Canada, but we'll know in a few days!
