    I guess XTB is skipping TFCon, they've already got 200 releases set for 2022.

    Probably manufactured and QC’ed by the Transform Element crew.

    I bought Apeface and Snapdragon two months ago. I should have wait... the new ones looks much better with white instead of grey and my Apeface came with a missing piece.

    I saw the release date: 2nd quarter 2022. That's still a long way off.

    Not counting my chickens yet.

    Yes, it was sealed. A part of apeface's head was missing or the right arm of spasma. The seller contacted KFC but for some reason he did not receive a replacement part from them.

    The beast arms on Snapdragon (the toy) look spindly, KFC should have thickened the upper arms to better match the cartoon model.

    So, did KFC do a run of the silver again, followed by a run in white for an extra 20 bucks?

    If so...weird business choice.

    Got my Kingorilla in the mail today. Kinda disappointed that he came with the old facesculpt instead of the updated one. Not sure if this was a reissue or oldstock. Regardless, I can't mess with it today because the wife is home. 20210925_135815.jpg 20210925_135659.jpg 20210925_135647.jpg 20210925_135632.jpg

    There's no way you could have known. I think they re-released them this year as well, as TFSource ran out of stock and got more in at some point, so there was no indication of a possible repaint.

    Think the head was just with Kingzilla after I'd got Kingorilla. At least that's where I got my one from this year when I picked them up off baba and show z respectively.

    Aside from the swirly the silver parts, he cleans up pretty well. I went straight to gorilla mode because I had a hell of time transforming him when I 1st had him. Much easier now in that I followed Emgo's video review vs me following the included instructions. 20210926_081420.jpg 20210926_081357.jpg 20210926_081348.jpg 20210926_081127.jpg 20210926_081054.jpg 20210926_081029.jpg 20210926_081012.jpg Now Im not so sure about getting the A+ version just for the sake of toon/toy accuracy.
