    Thanks for posting that link. I was about to go into Columbo research mode. I’m hoping the upcoming emonster mech and figures are diaclone scale (which I’m sure they will).

    Thought I'd throw this out there in one more attempt.. anyone have an orange B-type suit from the MFT Constructions they'd want to swap for an A-type (so looking for the partner to the one pictured)?

    I notice some places are now selling MFT parts now (like Motorcycles, weapons, and engine covers for the Mammoth) - anyone thought to ask anyone for the small and rectangular weapon and engine adaptor accessories from one of these : ?

    They look like they'd be useful to me to have extras of.

    Hi guys I'm looking for a specific robot toy relating to the Diaclone KOs, except this one isn't a KO as far as I know. All I remember is they were made by the same folks who do the Diaclone knock offs, I know those are Mech Fan Toys/Mechanic Studios but I can't seem to find anything, could someone help please?

    Decided to make my first real attempt at a diorama for these guys as I love these kind of mech suits. Been waiting almost two months for my Mammoths also so figured this would be good practise for planning a proper thing. I really love the designs on these guys, got to admit.

    Edit my camera is hot garbage hot damn

    Snap Ships™

    Has anyone purchased these? I ordered a few, hoping they're Diaclone pilot sized cockpits. Cheaper on Amazon for anyone interested.

    Answered my own question

    Gorgeous!

    Those are my absolutely favorite suits from the MFT line. The embody so much of the foundation of sci fi pop culture. The transparent face shield really allows for the human element to be accentuated just a fraction more but the sum is more than its parts.

    Effing excellent suits.

    I'm staring at 2 right now and , honestly, i'd trade my others suit designs for more.

    Picked up a KO WST Fortmax on eBay ($16). Not sure Takara ever made an official wst one but it can work with MFT/Diaclone.

    The head comes off but doesn’t transform...it pegs via a micro head that’s within the big non transforming head. Looks like the smaller head may go with a KO wst ultra magnus. Hahaha that autobot sticker whomps

    Exact same case for me, been since the 9th or something it's supposed to of reached a distribution center but nothing since. Showz have always been solid but I can only think they used literal Soviet logistics trains to deliver it. I'll probably contact them in a week or so to see if they can find out anything, know they're probably swamped so I'll give them a bit of breathing space.

    Oh, I seem to have this guy.
    I am working on giving him proper paint. Also, if you apply some model glue/clay to the inside of larger head, you can plug the smaller head upside-down ro make an improvised Cerebros.

    Also, what is going on with the rumored/teased Diaclone Combiner (the guy with the Mammoth Truck as a leg)?

    1. When you have this guy:[​IMG]

      You can give his head to any TR body with this lego part. If you are lucky, the crossbar will fit snugly into a TR socket. Then you attach the larger head on the ball joint. It will hold.
