    Which would you rather own..or both?

    Please don't get into the KO ethics debate...I can't deal with that now. just answer the question.


    I'm getting thr WST's, but I really want the KOs since there are no official reissues. The prices are the deciding factor in this case however.

    Get the G1 KO replicas... I could not deal with the WST Dino's since the small parts, accessories, and weapons were a pain to deal with.

    As cute as the WST are, you have to deal with very very small removable fists. Go for the full size ones if you're picky about removable parts.

    WSTF Dinos. They're way cheaper, and look a lot better in the 'toon colours.

    Go with the 1:1 KOs. As much as I like those WSTF dinobots, I'd rather get them in original size. Plus WSTF dinos are also KOs.

    I can't deal with that now Nice, nice.

    As far as your question, I'd have to recommend the full size version. I bought WST Grimlock and I'm not really happy with the quality. The screws that connect his tail were loose and when I tried to tighten them with the smallest screwdriver I could find, the plastic threads were stripped and so the screw wouldn't tighten. Your mileage may vary.

    I'd love both, but the KO's are ridiculously priced. WSTF Dinos FTW. Plus I have all the G1 Dinobots and while they're pretty floppy and in 'very played with' condition, those are fine with me. I can sit around and wish for Reissues that will probably never happen.

    I have 3/5 of the WST already. I just doubt I will get the KO reissues.
