    Okay, but is GPS still a problem on current/newer toys?

    GPS is usually a problem that arises when a toy ages, so whether the plastic bonding techniques have improved from say, G2 Slingshot and Electro, remains to be seen.

    Hmmm, maybe I should wait for other bumblebee redecos :D  If it is painted it`s another thing. I think, I´ll wait until the figure reviews appear.

    the side with the best mix yo!

    i love seeing mp05 in pics. not enough folks show him off. i luv him!!

    thanks ya! i dont know if they make or sell them anymore, but back in the day they were/are diet pills that you could buy in any service station. and if you take a couple of them (not recommended) with alchohol... you get this speedy, jittery feeling. once again; not recommended.

    dern right!! LOL!!

    Oh dang. I'll have to keep an eye on that auction. I'm almost sure they wouldn't be selling them at that price if they weren't KOs, but if they've made a high quality KO Masterpiece Seeker mold and that's the first release, then it may be worth jumping on. I'd still say it's a scam until we have confirmation that people aren't being scammed, though.

    Definite scammer. Follows the pattern of selling cheap stuff first to boost reputation, then switches to TFs with prices too good to be true.

    Just saw a Wheeljack KO on eBay. Depending on which side of the fence you're on with KOs it's either happy days or gloom.

    (EDIT: just found the KO Wheeljack thread. Dunno why it didn't appear in search!)

    Well, looks like at least one person's fallen for it...
