    :lol :lol  No offense taken bro! I know I can be somewhat pedantic sometimes. It's all good. thank you for explaining the situation on these tho, that was a tidbit I didn't understand clearly. makes sense now. I'm gonna get a few heads. I'm still gonna wait on the review vid tho.

    Okay, so that is definitely going to be on the list.
    Good to know they ship here!
    I agree!!
    How much was it total if you don't mind my asking?

    @skywarp-2 i got the head without LED which was $38+$6 shipping. i was then offered express for $17 and i took it. a large price for just a head but it makes the figure look so good

    Awesome man thanks for taking that in stride! I know you'll probably be happy no matter which you get, especially if you're getting multiple heads! And you can always PM either CK or DMS they're really good about answering questions. I've DMed them lots of times without buying stuff just to get more info or prices. Besides, you can probably sell whatever heads you don't want on ebay afterwards and at least get your money back.

    Want to give you guys an update. Took the plunge and altered the movie 1 and 2 style chest sternum to fit prime now. My previous photo had him with the DOTM style piece because with my chest mod, you cannot have the movie 1/2 piece sit flush, causing the red abs to pop forward and spread too far apart. Now the correct piece can fit, giving him the right look, with the autobot symbol sitting inside and in between where the abs are, in the same place that detail is molded on the figure mind you! I will go over what I did in the video that I am still gathering things for. My license exam is over and now I have much more free time. 20200711_234807.jpg

    These are too expensive for someone to get all 4 to review. Each of them is good, you will probably see only good feedback for them.
    Here is the only comparison to date. From his points and Capcomkai has the bigger head coming, I think we can say: go for 2 Capcomkai's versions for better quality and go for DMS's versions for good quality and decent price:

    Looks amazing, but I hope your video shows the figure from the side as well! I've noticed this figure looks way better from the front than the sides, due to the thick torso.

    Oh don't worry I will. And I'm going to show comparisons to how the upgrade kits were supposed to look and why without the chest mod, to me, make the figure look worse as they make him even more box chested from the side, especially the dotm set

    Was hoping my ko jazz and bumblebee would be here to show them off for scale in the video with others, but I guess I will make due with what I have. If they don't come in tomorrow, I will just have to post pictures after the video.

    Sorry if its been asked before, but I couldn't find it through skimming. Where exactly do you buy the capcomkai head for BA prime?
