    It does go up in value. Either way, it is a bit ironic that a knock off of a knock off is gaining such attention. Love the trailer set though.

    *sigh*

    I love the fact that every time something about this is posted, people have to post their "it's not hasbro", "it's all fake" opinions. >=\ Tell me how this is *any* different than buying aftermarket upgrades to pimp out your car? Hmmm?

    Nonetheless, it is funny that they're KOing an aftermarket/unlicensed toy. =) Just shows you there's a market for it.

    i don't really care if the original isn't a licensed product. it's not knocking off of any hasbro's original work, it just enhances it. when someone else takes their hard work and makes a cheap knockoff just to trick people into giving them money instead, that makes it wrong, regardless of whether or not it was made by hasbro or not.

    Are they now? Tell me then, Which official Takaratomy/Hasbro officially licensed product did FansProject KO from? Last I knew the FansProject kit was a fan dreamed, fan created item that was merely inspired by the overall design asthetic of the mold used as Generation 1 Ultra Magnus. Completely different design, completely different molds, completely different parts, completely different transformation. I could go on, but I'll stop by just saying, FansProjects Commander Armor kits are not KOs, although they may not have Hasbro/Takara's blessing, they are completely original.

    :trolls:

    What Yamaotto wants to tell us is
    Humans are KO of their ancestors.
    or
    Humans are KO of their Creator.

    All the people who refer to the "original Fan Project" as a K.O. need to do some re-thinking.

    If you follow that train of thought, then you will be calling all the Radicons who do heavy modifications K.O.s?

    So Frenzy Rumble would be the greatest K.O. in TF history?

    LOL!

    Exactly, it doesn't make much sense now does it?

    It's not a KO unless it's trying to be passed off as the thing it's copying. Pretty easy to understand.

    Thanks for the guide. At first I figured this was good that people would get a chance to own a CC figure, but seeing the guide outlines all of the quality issues with the KO. They really went all out on screwing it up horribly.

    After taking hard looks at the little nuances of the city commander set up close,
    Im really starting to appreciate the level of detail that went into that set : D !
    Hasbro needs to start taking notes-
    AND THOSE BOOTLEGGERS SHOULD BE ASHAMED >:C

    Those photos are from FansProject themselves. They posted it earlier on their website. There was even a link in the other City Commander KO thread.

    It would be ironic if the KO company actually REPLIED to customers' emails instead of doing what Fans Project do, which to completely ignore them.

    Fans Project even ignore emails from vendors like Robot Kingdom, who actually buy product from Fans Project themselves.

    I hope MORE KO's of Fans Project stuff come out...and get BETTER too.

    Right now I have zero sympathy for FP whatsoever.

    Just to remind you that they TOO have a regular job and life to deal with in real time.
    I don't think spending time repling every single fan mail will be a good idea for a small group like FP.
    As for ignoring the emails from Robot Kingdom... To my understanding they are located in Hong Kong right? I guess they should be after TFClub rather then spending time going directly to FP.
