    Here's a gallery of the new Pyro KO. Overall I'm impressed. There was a little flash I had to trim but other than that I had no problems. My biggest complaint is how the seller packed it, he folded the card & wrapped it in heavy paper & tied it with a string. As you can see the card is trashed. I'm just happy nothing got broken. If you check his feedback somebody mentioned that theirs was broken because of the lousy packing job.

    Another complaint is the lack of his gun. Why leave the gun out??? His missile launcher works the same as the original but a few of the missiles didn't shoot because they didn't slide well, that can be easily fixed.

    The good news is his waist won't be suffering from GPS. Its a pretty strong gray plastic. I'm really happy with this guy & I wish they would make a Collossus/Clench KO.

    The version they show on the back of the card looks like Ultra Magnus. If that version shows up I'll try to get one. And I'll tell the seller to pack the damn thing better.

    My Pyro's waist broke a while back so I repaired it with J-B Weld. He's better now, I don't have to worry about GPS anymore.

    I did switch them around. They're the exact same size & fit together perfectly. Wheels don't match though............oh well, nothin a little silver paint can't cure. The KO needs some decals or custom paint, it's too plain looking.

    To anybody that buys one, make sure you tell the seller to pack it better than he has been. It was a real piss-poor packing job! What is it with Asian sellers anyway? They always wrap the item in paper & tie it up with strings. Then it gets crushed during delivery. They always did that back when I collected Zoids, my boxes always arrived all screwed up. :banghead:

    I agree. I got my dino cassette Guarfi MIB in just a padded envelope. Was very pissed but lucky it wasn't crushed at all.

    Just bought one for myself. Love the Pyro mold, hate the GPS. $24 shipped ain't too bad either. Now just gotta get some decals to spruce it up a bit too.

    Most of the stickers are from Zoids, at a guess. I recognise a lot of them.
    VERY nice looking KO, I have to say! I may have to pick this one up. Thanks for the photos Noisemaze.
