    Sooooooo pissed! I've been waiting around for a flash sale forever and missed this one by half an hour! :mad:  Didn't even get a notification from the flash sale thread. I'm kicking myself for not checking sooner :(

    If you are referring the flames on the wings, I can see them on Nova Storm since he can be similar to Sunstorm but without the radiation aspects. The red on the figure does look a little odd.

    That looks great and is much closer to what I am looking for but I want the yellow to be a more orange (golden) yellow.

    I have the Hasbro Sunstorm as my Nova Storm (for now) but I really don't like the half brown arm guns and head. Could also live without the stripes on his shoulders and flame decos. The base yellow is perfect for Nova Storm though.

    Yea, they will fit any MP-11 mold regardless maker. Even the YM coneheads. I got these from a guy on eBay. He had 2 extra sets of the KBB coronation sets plus a die cast megatron gun so I bought them right away. I can't really use the heavier die cast Megatron on these YM models because of sloppy fingers but if you have custom hands they will be fine.

    If you scout around ebay you might find more sets or actually buy a KKB SW or TC then sell it cheaper with out the coronation set which was my original devious plan. :rolleyes: 

    Now I just have to wait for YM Starscream to arrive and my coronation trio will be complete! :D

    Got my YesModel Thrust yesterday. Absolutely perfect. Could not be happier, feels much more solid than my official MP11. Had a £15 off ebay voucher so got him for £55 delivered in the UK. Absolute steal

    I already own YM TC and SW.

    The price difference between YM and TT reissue SS is only like $20USD at my local store... I like TT color scheme better but I also don't hate YM color scheme....

    Which one I should get?

    Has Takara even fixed their floppy issues yet? I am not even sure if their Dirge release will be any better than Ramjet or Thrust?

    You know with YM It's guranteed near 0 QC issues with more gear also.
