    Agreed.
    The rear of the legs, the clunky looking feet are the only and main reason why I didn't settle for UT TLK Prime even tho it was easy for me to get them from China directly.

    I'm of those that actually likes Knight Orion's vehicle mode a lot, with the big wheels and sleek looking windscreen cab.... but held off me due to the mid riff.. lol... hopefully this one gets it right... They either need to stow the front wheels somewhere else or reduce the wheel well size to minimise the front wheel appearing too small.

    UT megs is basically perfect. I prefer for TMT to do the other crew *cough* Barricade, Drift, Crosshair, Bumblebee, Hound *cough*

    Thanks bro! And also I've had THREE of the mold so far (V1, Destroyer and V2) so I'm not really ready to do all the painting and little mods all over again. Especially the elbow mod...

    Don't know if anyone has seen this or not, but it looks like the sword comes apart in order to go into his chest... but also, it looks like the hilt can be seen inside the cab of the open truck mode... so maybe the slot in the sternum is due to the hilt of the sword storing there in vehicle mode?

    It looks like it yeah. I hope every accessory can be stored inside and not hang out from the vehicle mode.

    I know right, I am still saving for TW F09 Nemesis (TW released a second run) so this will probably be my next TF after that

    True, I’m gonna guess it’ll release at the end of the year of around the beginning of next year.

    Sweet, thanks for the heads up!! I just ordered it, but like everyone else already stated, I highly doubt that it'll be out by Oct.!!

    Also, looks like we'll be getting light up eyes with this Prime as well.

    Um, so I hope that they noticed that in their pictures on page 17 and on show Z have mis-matched shoulders right above the chest plates

    Edit: I was just kind of hoping they'd have caught it before sending it to ShowZ, but I get that they are still early renders

    Don’t think they send it to showz, I think showz just grabs them

    so the feet keep changing between pictures. Is this an improvement or are they swappable for an included non-transforming foot? Also here are some more showzstore pictures, not sure if they're up to date. 139524208_4133073643393617_728207369696351074_n.jpg 60b8e6b117.jpg 64deed2178.jpg 61e10ec11f.jpg 2edc1099a4.jpg 69f1edb164.jpg 079ddb9dc7.jpg 3c7e829acb.jpg

    I believe they had to sacrifice the accurate feet for the UT challenger look due to transformation... I think they said there was no way around it

    I don't know abt the Challenger feet look. This looks way better than Challenger's, and way more accurate.... assuming they don't change them again.
