I taught all of my Japanese preschool kids to say "plonker".

"Sir, Ayuki's dancing at lunch time again. He's being a right plonker."

And for our non-Brit viewers, here's the car in action:

-

The show starred many famous Brit actors and comedians, including the voice of "Dangermouse", David Jason:

-

In the show, two brothers basically try to swindle anyone they can, usually by selling anything they can for as much money as possible. They usually fail.

 

Nice, its size looks to be in between his siege rifle and the potp rifle so that works perfect for me. Thanks.

 

Yea it’s pretty perfectly sized for siege prime, the studio series arm blades work great for his arm axe too

 

He also played Rincewind in The Color of Magic. And the friendly Giant in BFG.

 

Would you guys recommend THF Soundwave (KO Soundwave), or KO Megatron?

 

I'd recommend you learn taobao or Superbuy/taobao for the price of that TT mp 36 or that thf Sonic. You could have both for those prices.

I want to say both thf soundwave and thf Meg's are 36 USD a piece in taobao . I've seen reviews of the thf Meg being on par with the TT ko.

Ppl swear up and down about the IT mp 36 and that one is about 50 ish USD on taobao .

 

They look alright. Some basic render pics were up back around December or whatever, surprised to see them in a a video already. I'm guessing it's a promo set. As same channel has lots of stuff often new before it's out anywhere (same are other reviews etc).

AHa, Classic!

 

What''s the average international shipping price like on there (if there is one).
I've never bought from there as anytime I look I can find the same thing usually at same price on Ali without fudging about with non-english pages etc.
Also, I have no idea how to "figure" it out, even after looking at the specific thread on this site - so good luck to any newcomers!*
*NOTE: I am rather stupid. Without tutorials.

 

I'm not sure on avg, cause weight/size varies per order. I generally order a few bots. Last order was 5 bots at around 45 AUD for 5-10 day shipping. This is going through Superbuy. Directly through the taobao official forwarders it would have probably been half that.

Sometimes it better to order from Ali, ebay etc especially for single bots. I didn't really save much on my last order vs ebay etc because I was trying to beat Chinese new years and shipped out with savings left on the table..... if I would have added other things that is. All the prior orders have saved me hundreds vs those other outlets. It's worth looking in to

 

I used to ali.. back when i didn't know about taobao. I quickly realised how different the prices are after my first purchase, and regretted not looking at cheaper options than ali earlier. Im from AU tho and i imagine its a bit different because the shipping costs from taobao to AU are really good i think.
I swear ive saved easy 1k so far.

 

Has there already been a KO of MP-36+? I have not seen anything about that.

Nevermind. Already found out about Magten. Prefer a metallic look over chrome  

 

eBay Prices do tend to go down over time - I have a problem with the chinese sites being a bit virus infested and I really don't much like using a credit card payment in china anyway. It is a darn pain that I have to put up with the lower selection of item on eBay though - as there is all sorts of tat i'd like to buy - I Guess I'll have to sit down and give it some time sometime.

I'd be happier if I could find sellers I know on eBay on the other sites though as at least I have an established relationship with them.
But I noticed how much cheaper the Targetroids were than ebay and frowned. If only we didn't have such rediculous tax issues in the UK I might risk it more - but for USA with their tax situation on toys being no worries - I think you are on to a win.

I keep meaning to see about getting a Red Knight before they all disappear on me.

 

had no probs on Taobao.payment is sent to seller thru Alipay. 支付寶.

 

I officially LOVE pocket toys! Bruticus is awesome, now I need a better legends scale devvy tho. My ko dx9 don't quite scale right.

 

I've had mine about a week and I still keep picking it up and marveling at it. Absolute a++++

 

Anyone familiar with the g1 prime Los? Ordered one to go with other reissues but bot sure on quality and build.

 

Just got mine today. Looks great next to my OS Hulkie.

 

That is so...cute.
Like a little kid yelling at the ocean.

 

That's also an option, though some people would prefer to buy the Iron Factory Combaticons where possible AND new Iron Factory products like the DJD, to support the original creators where possible. Personally I don't have any issue with buying KO's, but it's an option for those people who want to buy original whenever possible.

Seriously? I understand about the supply/demand curve. If it was only possible to buy the still-available Iron Factory figures at gouger prices, that would be different unless you were really dead-set on buying originals only, but that isn't the case. For example, Toy Dojo has two of the three sets in stock at $70 each. Oh My Primus has the KO for $66, so at about the same price that Set A would be if you could still get it, you could use the KO to replace those two figures.

Got mine yesterday. Great quality set. Pocket Toys have really stepped up their game since Bridgewatcher. Joints are all nice and smooth. Plastic is just as good if not better than most IF figures. No stress marks so far. Very happy. That Swindle is adorable
