    What's the best place to get the V2 with the V1 style autobot emblem? I looked at ShowZ but they look like they're only taking pre-orders for the silver leg version. Thanks!

    Got a V2 KO prime in a few days ago, and I'm impressed. Much more solid than my official (the legs don't flop around and hips are much stronger). Transformed a couple of times, no issues. Everything seems to tab in easier, especially when putting the sides on the cab and the gas tanks actually line up. Overall, I'd recommend the V2 KO over the official if you have neither; the KO was 5 times cheaper than the official and looks/performs just as good.

    Photo for reference, official on the left, ko on the right.

    What about the chest tabbing into the waist? Does it go as far as the official like some say? If so please post a pic

    The KO does seem to have more gap at the torso. Could be just how it is or mistransformation...

    Could you check? Maybe look at both and see if there’s any difference in the molding and design?

    Na u gotta "click" it all the way down. U should hear 2 clicks. Use caution as it does feel kinda sketchy when doing it. I know cuz I have the v2 in hand...
    Also bought batteries and installed them in the voice box. Loving it

    Still enjoying my V1 KO. Easily my third favorite KO behind the Infinite Transformation IT01 (KO of MP36) at number two and the KuBianBao MP10V (Voyager sized KO of MP10) at number one.


    (Sweet mother of Primus, Unicron, & Gaea, I wish there was a Megatron figure worthy of rivaling MP10V; Siege Megs doesn't cut it!!) 20210116_040838.jpg

    I’m kinda in the same boat ... was watching these ones and waiting to see what happens...

    sadly my MP 10 is looking more and more dated the more figures I replace around him :(

    Guys I figured out why the mp 44 ko has a gap in the waist. It’s this piece. It should be angled more downward. I figured this out by pushing down on the piece and when I did that the gap went away. Now all I have to do is figure out a way to get the piece to stay down. I tried using scotch tape and this was the result. Tell me what you guys think.

    Finally got this guy today...version 3.0. I am happy with it. Everything looks and feels solid. I haven't transformed him yet and I'm not sure if I will. I need to get the decal put on his arm. For $99 shipped, he'll look good on my shelf :)

    I got my MP-44 KO from mascotzone, too. But mine came with the Autobot symbol in a little ziplock bag. Did you not get one?
    Just asking because others have not noticed and thrown them away.
