    Looking good. Not sure about the chest as others have said but I think colour will really make that pop. I think his height is just about perfect for Hot Rot too so hop Bc they do Hoodlum at this scale (half a head over Takaras)
    Love that face sculpt - is the second face with the weird open mouth a cygar one? Hard to tell on my phone.

    He seems to be a bit small compared to their interpretation of Springer (or Springer a bit too tall).

    While I agree it looks great, there weren't a while to to curb stomp. It wouldn't take much to beat that awful TW one.

    Yet another great FT reveal today! It looks like they finally learned how to make good faces.

    The only downside I see with Koot, is that his transformation will make it impossible to place an Autobot symbol in a cartoon accurate location and not have it look ridiculous in vehicle mode.

    I'm loving this design, it's not just the Kup I wanted, it's the Kup I need!

    Indeed. Without FansToys, the 3rd party panel would have been a snooze fest.

    So glad to see a Kup in the works. This one looks pretty great overall. I feel like his arms might be a little scrawny, but the look is super solid just the same.

    Glad there is a face shown without a stupid cy-gar or w/e it's called. Not a fan of that look.

    Springer is supposed to be Rodimus Prime height.

    Kup should be about a half head taller than Hot Rod.

    Now that the OMG factor has worn off a bit I may have 1 concern if I'm seeing things right.

    To me, it looks like the chest splits and compresses when going from alt mode to bot mode right were I can only imagine most of us would place a fraction logo. Now I don't have a problem with splitting the logo but... there would be a gap separating it in alt mode. Am I seeing this correctly or am I missing something?

    Oh hell yes. I haven't been the biggest fan of some of their reveals lately, but they knocked this one out of the park. I need it in my life.

    Looks good, but this is way too small to be my Kup. My collection needs one that scales better with Buzzing, Tesla, and Transistor. And it makes me sad to think that this points to Hoodlum being another tiny Hotrod. I'm a sad panda. Good thing several other announcements are worth being excited about.
