    Optimus, bumblebee, starscream, megatron, etc... if it's a golden goose, it'll get ko'd... the hardest part is waiting.

    Nah. The CAD files have probably been stolen and sold already :lol

    Word on the official thread is that someone already has the CAD files and they're expecting to have the KO out before the official. It's not really substantiated beyond Facebook chatter, though, so it could easily be a whole load of bollocks.

    Starts here and continues sporadically: MP-57 - New Masterpiece Skyfire (In English here: MP-57 - New Masterpiece Skyfire). Source group is private which also doesn't help credibility.

    God, I hope it's BS. If a KO tries to release before the official, I can't even imagine the level of crackdowns that would generate.

    That's exactly what I was thinking. I was hoping things would cool down a bit so companies start upping their OSKO game again.

    Here's another from the LDCX line: the AIRLINER :)  I love them passenger planes, there's not enough of those in the Transformer world.

    Got mine as usual from @SirToys right here: Toys - SirToys.com

    Enjoy!

    Looks like there may be a KO MP-57 Skyfire already in the works.

    I'd be way less interested in an MP-57 KO if it doesn't include the micro figs

    It’d probably be better if they waited anyway to see if official had any QC issues they could fix.

    I hope they get a clue and hold off. I really don't want to see an apocalyptic crackdown by Chinese authorities that sends the KO scene back to the stone age.

    Every TT KO ever made always included all the accessories the official did and in some cases even more accessories on top of that (BB7/BBQ/Yes Model MP-13x KO seekers). I don't see this not including those as well.

    Do you recall if there was a version of MP-44 KO that came with a trailer?

    Not that I'm aware of. You'll have to get the MP-44 KO trailer separately. ShowZ has it, I believe.

    I just recently acquired this G1 Brainstorm Bootleg. Was wondering if anyone had any information on this bootleg and where to possibly buy another?
