    The only problem I have with this is the face looks somewhat "derped"? Like the eyes seems off to me somehow.

    The face definitely looks weird, but hey more reason for the guy to wear his mask 24/7.

    I'm fine with the face being less than desirable since he has a mask :)  I'm less accepting of some of the slight paint blemishes I see on the arms and possibly other areas. Looks like the legs have good tolerances, but there are some other places with inconsistent tolerances or QC according to that video. If this is 80% of the quality of official at 40% of the price, that's probably a win for everyone. As for me, I'm not sure this is enough for me to replace the official, especially since the D3Toys pre-order bonuses aren't really that special to me. The Optimus, on the other hand, might be worth getting just for the Gigante Axe!

    I really just want the speakers. Anyone willing to sell theirs, pm me and I'll take it off your hands.

    Someone asked the same question in the comment section of that video (4th comment from the top). The reply was this... "From what I heard with owner's in China , this kit is tight overall with a compact built. But the shoulder design easily break off if you mistreat it during posing , thats the only problem so far"

    They're on the home stretch, hope they didn't fumble. Was really looking forward to a KO Prime.
