    E-mailed BBTS and asked if they were expecting a re-issue at any point. Hopefully I get some good news

    Ebay:
    Just a heads up that BOTH DK-02 and DK-04 are up on Action Robo and Baba's ebay account. Both are pre-orders. ETA per Action Robo is November.

    In case you want in depth review of these parts before you buy, I found this thread while I was looking for this one:

    It took me forever to find all three kits on ebay. I waited too long when the first appeared on the market. It's absurd that it cost as much or more than the price of the toy to bring it up to a decent appearance.

    I really want these, but I dunno. I can buy a nice stand alone 3rd party MP for the price. Hard decision for some add-on kits.

    They are legit. No KOs there. Those kits are finally being reissued. Even Baba has preorders up.

    Yeah
    Yeah, the gun was really needed to balance out the giant leg cannons. The wrist blasters helped, and the hip cannons are essential, but he still looked unbalanced without it.

    Good to know in both cases! Especially since TFSource is quite a bit cheaper than eBay.

    Meh. the other fort max kits I ended up honestly Regretting. The idea was good. Just not executed well.

    So I'm kinda glad I skipped out on this one. No regrets.

    I tend not to sell things unless it's through folks locally where I live. Sorry man, Also, in this particular case, I'm kinda keeping the stuff as a reminder to myself that "not all things are perfect" and to "shop more selectively from here on out" Since then I stopped buying add-on kits. I even regret all the MP Star Saber add-ons I bought.
