    Got mine yesterday. Ended up going with baba, andvin terms of QC it seems just fine. I need to sift back through the thread checking for specific issues folks have encountered, but at first glance I don’t have any moisture or peeling paint, and the joints seem okay (if tight).

    So far (having not had a chance to transform him yet) the only thing I don’t like is how insanely tight the doors are on the rocket pieces. I had to pry them open with a small screwdriver (dumb, I know... should have used something plastic) and even being careful managed to gouge a chunk of plastic out of one of the tabs. Oh well. I need to check and see if/how people have been loosening those doors.

    He’s sure immense, though, and visually looks perfect to me. He takes up a distressing amount of space in a display, but boy does he have a presence.

    Can someone do me a favor a explain what to open up on the claw arm to remove the battery? I'm figuring I need to remove the screws around the light to do it, but wanted to check first. I couldn't find it mentioned in videos or a google search. thanks.

    Done!

    Haven’t have time to transform him yet, he looks good but I wish he is a bit darker color like FT.

    Now just wait for jream’s Autobots logo.

    Why does the crotch flap open? Not a big deal or anything, but I'm just wondering. It dose not seem to have any kind of function in either mode as far as I can tell.
    So like, what? Is he supposed to have a robo-dong under there or something?

    Edit: J/k - I know robots don't have dongs

    It acts as storage for anything really, such as putting the extra face for Omega into it. Fits in the one that I've got almost perfectly, give or take 1 or 2 mm.

    Yeah, you have to remove the screws for the claw arm. Peaugh's review mentions the lights at around the 17:00 mark.

    That thing is huge! Too much space taken up in my display shelf and too much empty space left in my wallet. But yeah, it's sweet!

    Get it, Arafat209 is a legit dude. also if you read all his feedback even when he first started it's all positive. Yeah his Kronos figure may not have been all that great due to Factory Sabotage. He was always such a nice guy here on the boards. anyway Good luck. :) 

    Sucks he's having to resort to ebay though, He probably still hasn't completely recvored from how much money he lost on Kronos. :(
