    Definitely, gonna see if I can do some minor alterations, (the fists slip out easily enough, and I could honestly just plug in a new Optimus foot/ball joint into the bottom of the feet since I wouldn't mind his legs being a bit longer).
    I'm really excited to see more of these and I hope they don't spend so much of the beginning of the line redoing those old legends, the Ratchet has me hopeful we'll see some other things.

    That's a great point! I have an FOC Optimus as well as the WFC Optimus which I might be to harvest their feet and ball joints. I recently bought a rotary cutter so this might be a good time to try it out! I really hope that Ratchet comes out in this line. I like MP Ratchet (which i don't have) but would like to have a relative sized one for either the prime in this KO series or some of the other primes I have.

    Here's Starscream's face repainted silver being held by his former body.

    That Megatron is very large though, might be too big.

    Just got my 2 Starscream and they feel VERY ko'ish. They don't feel like they will fall apart but they are huge, and super hollow, like worse than Hasbro hollow. Oh well, they are still kinda cool. The price was really good too so can't really complain.

    Megatron may be a little short though. His face makes him look young anyway. Teenage Megatron before the growth spurt :)

    Thinking this guy might be super bulky at this size. And does one Ratchet look taller than the other or is it the positioning?

    I really want all these but I prefer to use EBay to buy ; anyone seen them on there yet ?

    ***

    Ratchet looks not unlike the Earth Wars design. I see that and I think - There is great potential as a representation of other Autobot Medics like Fixit and Red Alert with a suitable new head.

    I'd love to see someone approach this sort of idea with the Micromasters - maybe not quite this big but with some modest improvements I'd buy that with bells on too.

    Pipes looks nice.

    The Machine Boy upscales are nice and quite cheap on EBay.

    I've wanted a scout size Hot Rod for 30 years. I've bought 5 of them but the shoulder joint broke on 3. The last few are ok though.

    I'm wanting to customise a few as Sideburn, Blackjack (without the damn faceplate), the Battlechargers and even some drones from Devestation.

    I already did Prime Smokescreen.

    Anyone else have a problem with Hot Rod's shoulders?

    Also the first few were in Machine Boy packaging but the latest said Alteration Man.

    Yes. Can't speak for the others, but Starscream's chest is die cast metal.
