    Is this being sold on any reputable websites yet?

    I know it's on Aliexpress but, as far as I know, they don't do PayPal.

    I'm not really a Drift fan, but at 24$, I really couldn't pass it up. Anybody got it in hand yet?

    Shame they couldn't work a torso swivel in there somewhere. Great-looking mold though. I'll probably get one after the new release pricing drops a bit.

    It does come with die cast, I was saying that there were pictures with drift showing off his diecast in the first post of the thread. Here's a pic anyways:

    It really does look like the Metal is gone.

    The shine and transluscency seems to be that of glossy off-white plastic there is no metal there - as you'd expect some sign of it on the underside of the fenders an other places.

    They have either limited it or removed it entirely - or (less likely) the finish hides it well (as with Overscale Breakdown and Off Road)

    Without any added paint details (such as improved car decals), waist swivel, etc, I can't see the need for this. OSKOs usually have some improvements, but this is simply "BIGGA", right?

    Is this the Hasbro Deco or the Takara United Deco?

    Also as a sidenote, the best I can find on eBay is $39.99 shipped. Didn't seem bad for a mostly Diecast figure. But, since @G1_Evac confirmed it's no longer metal, it isn't worth that price to me.

    He's $24 shipped off AE if you're good with no box.

    Apparently there's another KO from "FM", not oversized but lots of die cast, with die cast weapons coming soon too. Cost about 2.5x vs KBB's OS KO.

    I don't know if I like this mold enough to buy that one as well. I mean that much metal on plastic ball joints? But maybe the price will come down due to KBB

    I haven't managed to spot one on ebay yet. How are you searching?

    Thanks.

    I'd love to see Drift, Blurr, Darkmount, Skullgrin, and Windblade upgraded like how DNA Designs did Susano'o. Those were my absolute faves in the Generations line. Well, that and Springer and Whirl.

    He's 149g on a cheap kitchen scale.

    Seems like no diecast after all.

    don't really care if it has a lot of diecast or not, but bummed as they can't give it a waist swivel, considering there are room on there, and the fact that they put extra articulation on their CW megatron before.
