    Got mine today and what the fuck, the chrome looks like shit compared to my buster prime. The the chrome on the feet has all kind of scratches on the bumper area and the chrome on the chest is all hazy. This also had happened with the reissue DOTM buster & jetfire combo. Im cursed first my trailer and now the prime i got just to be in vehicle mode :cry

    Is the front grill chrome or just silver paint?

    Man, if this thing had the Buster cannon, I would be all over it. It's a shame. Give me a version of this with a jetpack, Buster paint job, and all the accessories, and that'd be my definitive movie Prime right there.

    Looking to get this figure in the next few months! Would get it sooner, but got the Amazon Jetwing so gotta wait a bit longer.

    Are batteries included in this and if so, are they installed in the figure or do you have to install them yourself?

    the positive side of the battery pack goes to the board and waits till a button is pressed to complete the circuit

    so u dont really need to worry about leakage

    Weird. Was there more than one run if these? Mine is also chrome.

    You didn't buy one of the high end KO's did you? (Although I thought those were supposed to be nearly indistinguishable from the real thing)

    As far as we know, there isn't a KO of the APS-01 Striker yet. Only KOs of the original Buster, original Striker, and Amazon black Prime.
