    Oh man, who cares? Why spit in a gift-horse's mouth? It's a good thing either way.

    Anyone got this in hand yet?
    Thinking I will get one if quality is comparable to the OS optimus, I really liked that one.
    Still, will wait for a video review or some people to comment if its any good.

    Give it time.... We have at least two companies working on them after all.

    Incidentally the item is for sale on faithtoptalk on ebay. I was rather impressed with the packing and price of the Optimus I bought from Miniyellow cat though so to save it getting smashed up like faithtoptalk items tend too I will likely go pester them to stock megatron instead and order him from there instead.

    I know, I'm a bit late to the party :D . Nevertheless, I'm going to grab that Dropkick, oversized or not, despite I'm not into these movie designs. Only factor here is the price - I can get Hasbro version for $25-$27 + shipping, so if KO will be much cheaper...
    I think I'd grab WWII Bumblebee too, he would be acceptable at half price despite all the flaws.


    I appreciate they make these Constructicons. Like I said before, I'm not into Bayformes, but if I wanted these - 1/3 of regular price is great deal. Especially that I've checked today and only SS Constructicom I would be (theoretically) able to get is Long Haul. The other (released) are sold out. I suspect that stores do not stock up SS nor Siege figures because shelves are flooded with Cyberverse figures (I wonder why no one dared to KO these xD).

    Those might be the bait and switch sets. They had CW on the box but they were G1 KOs inside.

    Well it's not much of a bait and switch when they include photos of the contents. Now i AM a bit colorblind, but that still looks green to me.
