2 x 49.99 = 99.98
4 x 29.99 = 119.96
2 x 19.99 = 39.98

Total = 259.92

So it's actually right in line, only a few cents cheaper. That's using USD and MSRP, although some could be had on sale. So not sure where the extra $40 is coming in?

 

Remember when some random listing said it was going to be $500 and people believed it?

Man, that was hilarious.

 

People were very adamant about that $500 price...

 

Not going to lie, but I fell for that one

 

They sure vanished once the crow was served.

 

How sturdy is this guy when everything is combined?

 

Mine has been pretty sturdy, no issues with any of the joints so far, but I know others have had issues. So... results may vary?

 

If I have Devastator already, is there really a reason to buy this lmao
$260 is a shit ton

 

Well, no. It does have a couple extra paint apps, and it comes with Skipjack instead of Rampage, but this is primarily for the people who started late, missed a few figures or waited for the box set to collect them all at once. If you already have it, and nothing interests you, there is really no reason at all.

 

Man, I would love love LOVE to see that commander Scavenger; he sounds epic.

And good to know they were planning on having his wheels become the grinder... their kibbly positions in the final version always seemed like a strange design choice, when they could so obviously form an important part of the combined mode.

 

No.

It's not for people who already have Devy. It's for people who may have missed out on components or wanted to wait to see the finished product before buying anything.

 

Just finished mine today, the legs are good and sturdy, my only problem is the arms being loose, but that's an easy fix

 

Arms are easy to fix? If you can tell me how to make them more tight, I’m all ears.

 

Its that when the bots are in a downward position I think its too much for the arms, but I fixed it by raising them a bit

 

Hi guys, I'm thinking about getting an AOYI knock-off of overload as I can't wait for the official version to come out in my country. I really want to finish my devestator and can't wait long enough haha

Is it a good idea or no? Are the AOYI figures identical (of similar quality to the Hasbro ones? Or should I play it safe and wait?

 

I have two copies of overload from BMB. Plastic quality is on par with official, maybe a slight bit waxy. Paint is a little bit more sloppy but not terrible, and ratchets don't feel quite and precise. But for 25 bucks Canadian VS 80 for the official it's a great deal. I also have the official but bought the BMB for parts if anything on the official breaks.

 

Okay, two dumb questions that I hope you guys don't mind me asking.

1. Can the bmb ko figs interact with the official figures? I really like that yellow instead of green leg guy (can't remember names for shizzle) and I can grab most of the other components at Walmart right now if I wanted..

2. Does Mixmaster's component do anything aside from forming the head?
Like, does it secure the two shoulders in place or anything? I only seen one video on combined mode but it looks like it just clips on from what I can tell, and I kinda want to make a project where it has a more humanoid head like that one fanart I posted.... Somewhere.... And forgot..,

 

Thanks for the info. I suppose I'll give in and get it then.
As long as AYOI scales with the hasbro ones I don't have any complaints.

 

can't answer 1, but for 2 no mixmaster's just the head

 

Hey so people who know more about this than I do....a question.

When Overload first showed up at Targets, he didn't scan at all. He sat on the shelf next to Scavenger and the other leaders but any attempt to scan him landed with an error. At the same time, he has been (And still is) regular priced at $30 instead of $50 on their site.

A few days ago, I stumbled across an Overload in stores and scanned him at the price checker. He was still tagged as $30. BUT here's the funny thing.

His DPCI was that of a Voyager. Like it said "GEN STUDIO VOYAGER ASST $29.99."

So, for peeps familiar with how these things are configured....WTF?! What would have caused Target to mistake this specific guy in their system for a Voyager, and what kind of chaos could that cause if he's in the system at the wrong item code?

Because this seems like the same kind of Target specific issue that has triggered street-date blocks on guys in an assortment. (Siege GUOP, ER Doubledealer, etc)
