    WOW WOW wow. This is what I've been missing lol.

    This is really cool and detailed. But I'm not really sure what I feel about this. I already got the weijiang mpp10. Now this is even bigger. In 2 years they will make a 40" version. I think I'll put my money into something different and high end! :)

    Yep, for this guy you can have at least 2 nice MP figures.
    He is cool though.

    A seeker in this scale would look ridiculously good

    I already own one, and I overpaid. period. disagree all you want. facts are facts. Again a KO of a KO should NOT cost more than the actual official product, no matter how much folks try to delude themselves into justifying. it. This is NOt a 3rd Party toy at all, It's a KO. Diecast is NOT what brings the price up on anything (since diecast is made of the lowest quality materials and cost almost nothing to make), it's the overseas shipping and a few more diabolical choices made by whomever decided to choose the price.

    Think about it for a minute. If Has/Tak decided "hey let's make a supersized MP-10", how much do you think it would cost? What's that? Ravage got your tongue? Oh, that's right, it would be well over $1200 bucks and you know it.

    300+ bucks no matter how you try and justify the cost is too high for the KO piece. If you try to resell it because you gotta pay some out of nowhere bill, You know how much the KO of a KO will go for? About maybe 30% of what you paid. No joke.

    Now, I never plan on trying to resell mine because he has an awesome presence on my office desk, and he's a decent conversation piece. Things happen beyond our control, so we have to plan on every scenerio even if we don't want to.

    This is a piece nobody needs. Lets be honest, folks are only buying it because of it's size, and because it's a prime. And you know what, that's totally okay. I'm just saying, for myself. I overpaid. and if I had to go back to do it again, I don't think I would. It wasn't actually a good investment. I got caught up in the Size hype like everyone else. :lol 

    The difference though, is I'm not kidding myself, it was a stupid purchase. No if's, and's, or but's about it.

    But since I have it, it will just be used as a reminder, Don't do it again. and because he's so huge, that reminder won't be ignored. :lol

    Although i have fun with it, i do agree with you.
    If i can go back, i woudn't had bought it.
    I paid total of 350 euros for it.
    To think that i could just bought Official Metroplex and another figure for that money.
    And Metroplex will just go up in price instead of going down.
    But hey, i'm still happy with it though.
    Did overpaid a lot though.

    They should ko mt SS. Cover the wings, give it a good face and hands, and lastly, make it an RC so we can have an oversized rc SS with remote that can actually fly. Like those giant f14's people fly (like 1.5 meter or 2 meters big).

    Where can you see the number?

    Try to get the black matrix door all the way in.
    It's hard to get it all the way in, mine also has problems.
    Just push it in hard and then the second chrome door can go on top of that flush and your chest doors can sit flush.
    I also have problems with the grill not being all flush with the chest.
    Guess it's a bit of a transforming error.

    Yeah make sure everything is inside and the matrix is all the way back, then just press down till it clicks. It has really tight joints. I have trouble opening it once closed.

    Ahhhh, I see it’s not just mine then at least! I’ve got it now except the windows keep slightly opening, but I’ll settle for that.

    Mine is 525.
    Sweet number if you ask me.

    I see on this card that that little part under chest ( his ab ) is always a bit open.
    So I've transformed mine the right way.

    Close his left chest window first then the right chest.
    Primes left not yours, ok.
    You can see the right chest must go over the left one.
