    Love these guys so much. Gutted they were just too big and pricey for me to want to keep.

    I really hope someone takes these guys and does a downscaled KO or similar release at some point. Can't wait to see Slingshot and Fireflight!

    They look decent, but I'm hoping for something higher quality. I'd like a set scaled more like zeta's offering, but FT's design style.

    I do miss my UW Supes a bit though. Hoping MST announce theirs so I can scratch that itch.

    Yeah, I understand what you mean. Sculpt, plastic, size and articulation are decent though. If they had some paint, articulated fingers and less hollow parts they'd be pretty good G1 accurate figures. At least they look the part and since I'm no huge fan of the Aerialbots they're good enough for my needs.

    With the size they are, might it be worth looking at the old kfc articulated hands for the MP carbots? Not sure what the connectors are like but they might be a good fit. Hollow parts could be filled in with 3d printed pieces like folks are doing for the newer official stuff. Of course, if the extra expense and effort is worth it.

    It’s the KO since I can’t afford the official but my god this is so satisfyingly engineered.

    Damn, that's a beautiful figure. It's been long enough and I still haven't heard from Baba so I'm starting to doubt whether I'll be receiving one :(
