    With the BMB KO Challenger releasing soon, Knight Orion has completely fallen out of my buy list. Seeing this pic though got me thinking. How much bigger will the KO's alt mode be in comparison to these two? Iirc Challenger's alt mode is already bigger than Knight Orion's.

    Thanks for the information. I was considering buying Knight Orion from Baba for about £105, but in the description it says 'does not deformation'. The deluxe version said the same thing too. So, if that's the situation, I'll stick with my V1 Challenger. It doesn't stand well, but at least the transformation works.

    So after much back and forth I decided to pull the trigger on Popeye arms here. He arrived today and I’ve fiddled maybe with him about ten minutes and right now I’m not sure what to think out of the box.

    Yeah this version is more accurate than Unique Toys but it feels more fragile. Definitely better paint and presence. I was able to get the deluxe version with the stand. Not as hefty or sturdy feeling (your mileage will vary) as their take on Bumbler movie Prime. The jury is still out.

    When it comes to transforming, I only have two words. Good luck.

    I don’t plan to. I’ve seen enough feedback to steer clear of that pothole of pain.

    I just caved and bought this guy after letting him sit in my cart for so long. Got him at 30% off for $120 too! Transforming for the first time was a nightmare, though. I've been transforming him once everyday till it gets easier but is it normal that I can't get the wheels to lay completely flat on the ground during alt mode?

    Hmm, I don’t believe I’ve had that issue. Could you take some pics of the rear of the truck? Only thing I could think of is how the calves are transformed.

    From a local store in the Philippines. I don't think they ship internationally, though.

    I've already fixed it thanks! It just took practice but now he rolls perfectly. I do love these rubber tires.

    The eyes are sculpted well though because of the color it can be hard to see. No light up features.

    Quick update on my figure:
    I decided to sell him due to me still preferring the UT version with being much more fun to play around with and pose.
    And I honestly don´t need two Knight Primes. Well maybe I´ll soon have three again if KOK and/or the STF version can convince me :D 

    But that was it for my TW Prime for now...

    The wrists are better now, as emgo said,
    But there is still a weeble wobble.
    It can hold its goddamn weapons!
