LINEGEAR Japan Corner, Q&A, latest update

As requested
1) Square Wire OO4075 - arms touching lenses when folded. IMHO I think this is a design flaw. One of the only models where the arms do not extend past the lens.
2-3) Wiretap OO4017 Gunmetal - left are broke off. Also. Design flaw as these arms are not spring loaded.
4-5) Wiretap OO4071 Flat black. Same as the Gunmetal.

I have my half wire 2.0 broken in a same way and I went to a local optician in a department store where I live in Tokyo. It could be repaired within one month. I don't know if it's a difficult work to do. No repair shops around your place you could ask. I guess it depends on how confident they are to handle it

You can send them an email to check. Also they are made of rubber so as far as the shape is not too different it should fit I guess.
