    Not to mention this ISN'T counterfeit. It's not a 1:1 KO and it's not made from stolen molds from Hasbro.
    Wow, you really must have been triggered. Lol What? Recess too boring nowadays for you kids?

    I quote: "Get the basic Retail Version of the figure shipped to you from within the USA. Will ensure that you get a figure with perfect Quality Control and save on International shipping."
    Even if the figure was being sent to backers straight from Wei Jang it wouldn't make any difference. They are still taking money for a figure to be shipped to the backer. It's the very definition of "selling."

    You give money to koncept, they place an order with sirtoys on your behalf, get the figure, paint it and then ship it to you. It's literally no different than having a commissioner but the figure they will be painting for you

    I like how people with no interest in the thread topic are posting in a thread they have no interest in.... Nor an understanding of the laws they keep talking about.

    I'm okay with the regular sized CW robots, but I'd love if they do OS versions of the POTP Dinobot combiner.

    In would buy an oversized Volcanicus, and Liokaiser if someone did a Leozack torso from Silverbolt.

    For the limbs, that is okay. I'd want a leader or larger sized Grimlock to match the Primes tho.

    Has anyone picked up OS KO Offroad and Breakdown? Cant find any vidro reviews on YT?

    Curious if the thought behind it is a full fledged OS menasor that won't have me mortgage one of my properties to get (and isn't puny compared to some of the other OS big boys)

    I've got both. They're right in line quality wise with the other releases (good joints, a touch of diecast here and there, clean paint), Breakdown did not include his hand/foot/gun, but otherwise his combiner functionality is all there.

    From what I've gleaned from both the outside (like everyone) and a tiny bit of direct contact with WJ, the CW stuff isn't dead, but it's not a priority currently either. Once the TLK stuff peters out hopefully we'll see more. 2/5 of the way to Menasor is definitely a good sign. Defensor started out as 3/5(6), and then a year later we got all 5/5(6), with a bonus retool/paint in the bargain.

    PERSONALLY I hope if they do go for Menasor, they don't use that god awful Prime mold. We NEED a second OS torso at some point, but I'd much rather see Sky Lynx or SilverClonus. If they decide to do the full Menasor, I'd rather they retool Hotspot into Motormaster. That Prime mold is just terrible.

    I've been looking at these for a while and have a question: are all the limbs with diecast? When the OS defensor is sold as a set the listing almost always says that the two lower limbs do, but not the upper ones.

    Not sure what you mean by "worth"

    But yeah, all limbs are available in both Diecast and all plastic versions. I have nothing but Diecast and am happy with them. A "Leg guys as Diecast" set up might be ideal though so you can get maximum arm posing..but my diecast arms have done just fine in that regard, so not sure if it would be better or not. I think for stability though, Diecast Torso and Legs are the way to go.

    Please direct all complaints to my phone, which loves to interpret me swiping in 'with' as 'worth'.

    And thanks, gonna look for an all metal limbs listing, then.
