    Thanks very much for the info! After some issues with purchasing MP-36 (and having to take a seller to the gov't fair trading body in my country - Australia), I am now looking to reliably get a MP-36 and have just seen all the MPs and how good the Infinite Destruction one has been received. What was putting me off though is that it doesn't have the faction symbols.

    Could you please tell me where you purchased the Ocean water slide decals that you used on yours?

    I'm seeking advice & opinions-
    I want to buy Dynastron or Magten. I really like the toy face & hairy chest accessories included with both & that's why I lean to those two.
    My concerns for Dynastron is, is the chest piece accessory loose? I watched a reviewer who knocked it for that reason. Though it did appear that he got a dud as his toy had several issues that other reviewers hadn't brought up. I think Dynastron has the best cannon features. Magten has that cool red in the inner calves which is a big plus for me. Does Magten have issues with pegging together in gun mode? When a reviewer transformed it it didn't look like he could finish cleaning it up saying he couldn't quite get it.
    It'd cool if there is anyone who could address those concerns.
    Thanks

    Dynastron's chest piece fits fine on mine. If I were to only pick 1 KO, it would be Dynastron for the nice gunmetal paint, fit and tolerances better than MP-36, and awesome cannon.
    I would also like to know about Magten's fit and tolerances in gun mode. I'd like to get one just for the bling factor, but only if it could at least fit together as well as MP-36.

    After waiting 30+ days after delivery date i finally filed a claim for a refund on the infinite destruction Megatron i ordered in january. It was due on February 13th. I waited so long because the tracking kept saying it was in customs. Sucks.

    By the way, last week I got a package that left China on the 7th... of December!

    I'm in Europe, fine, but this winter something big changed for the worst... I can't get anything under three weeks. And two months became the norm. I'm wondering if it's just Christmas + CNY, but last year it wasn't that bad...

    I can't figure out what's going on.

    How do I get the gun barrel to rotate down by the hip like the G1 toy on Magten. Or is that not an option? Mom keeps getting stuck. And feels like it's going to break.

    Oh fark it, I just ordered Magten. Can't get enough Megs.
    If nothing else, the box with "Destruction of the Great 100%" will be awesome.

    Where can I still order a Magten? Not finding it at the usual spots and I've decided that I wouldn't feel right not having it. It's the best looking Deco available for that mold

    Not yet, but there's one going to be released sometime.
    I'll let u know since I buy practically every version that gets released. The only one I don't own is Dynastron I think. I own the IT, Magten, Gold and the straight KO, and the official !! Just waiting on a purple striped "reformatting" holy grail version to be released and that will end my MP36 collection.

    Which KO MP Megatron to get? THF or IT of Megten. I want to have the Toy head for sure, and more bling is nicer, but i also want quality....

    For the IT, is there side hip movement very limited due to ratchets? I see this as a bad thing actually, because i need it to be easy to display like all the FT figures. But i hear this has overall best quality. I would need however to spend more money to get upgrade to get the Toy head.

    Is the quality on the THF very good too (and paint), or does the paint chip off with simply posing it (i wont transform), cause i hear the IT has best paint that wont get damaged. Can he hold up his gun, or is his arm ratchets too weak?

    If anyone has Megten (i cant find it on ebay), do you feel it is better paint detail application then THF? I feel from some of the pictures that although it has that beautiful silver i want, that the overall paint details seems not as well applied or alot of scratches from the box. Do you feel it is same quality as THF, or is THF better.

    Thanks in advance
