    Anyone have any updates on the reissue. I could have sworn it was being rereleased last month.

    I'd also like to know if their Cryotek is on schedule for May, but I'm guessing not. I don't have Facebook, but maybe someone posted something there?

    Where'd you buy it from? And what issues have you experienced with your figure?

    Eventually I'll need to ship mine from TFSource. My Stash is almost as backed up as my Pile of Loot at BBTS.

    ...YESSSSSSS.
    It's like that scene from Sixth Day when Arnold hangs out with Arnold. "He was like "YESSS..." and I was like "YESSSSS..." and together we were like.. "YEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!"

    Kapow toys, and couple of slightly loose joints and he’s a little tricky to balance sometimes (wing are massive and weighty), but otherwise he’s good. Tbh I’m selling him now though as he doesn’t really fit with my collection and I’d never be able to afford gorirra. He’s a beautiful figure though

    So, this week I realized I had a bit of extra money that I didn't anticipate. So I was going to get myself a 3rd party figure. I couldn't decide between Mega Doragon or the Takara Big Powered. Every day I take my nephew to school, so while we were waiting for the teahers to let him in, I showed him pics of Mega Doragon and Big Powered and said "Gavin, which do you think I should get for me". He said with a straight face "you should get neither for you but both for me". I ultimately decided on Big POwered, but there was a lot more thought behind it than money. I tracked down both and the price difference was only 10-15 dollars. As much as I really really want a Transmetal 2 Megatron, I'd rather have a beast machines retool (it would be super easy, retool the wings to be able to be removable, put the cryotek head on, a few smaller retools in the dragon mode to show battle damage, and parts forming for the arms and cloak) and there isn't a way I can afford to get both. I know PE hasn't said that they are doing a BM retool, but i'm holding out hope that they will. So i'mm going to start saving again, and if TFCon in the summer doesn't show off a BM retool, i'll pull the trigger. Big powered should be in my hands by the end of the week

    Dragon mode is striking in those colors. It’s going to be tough to decide which way to display this magnificent beast :rolleyes:

    I used to have both colors of the original figure---but ended up keeping both in dragon mode most of the time, even more so for Cryotek----ice dragons just look so awesome.

    Also, just pointing it out since it's easily overlooked, but there is also a thread dedicated just to Psychro Knight/Cryotek: Perfect Effect PE-DX09B PSYCHRO KNIGHT (RID Cryotek)
