    Just got the set of three from ShowZ. I think they go great with X-Transbot's Quintesson. _DSC7570.jpg _DSC7571.jpg _DSC7572.jpg _DSC7573.jpg _DSC7574.jpg _DSC7575.jpg _DSC7576.jpg _DSC7577.jpg _DSC7579.jpg _DSC7580.jpg

    wow, not bad at all, never knew there was an KO upscaled version. I have the Legends version which i am using in either Legends / Chug / MP shelves (it just works out for me) and i really love the quality and look and colors, but this is even better value for the money!!!

    These are awesome! I've been using the Igear and Unique Toys ones forever but these are a definite upgrade in my opinion and the price is very good for a set of three. Thanks for posting this because I never knew about these. Just ordered 2 sets :D

    To be honest, I wasn't expecting to love these guys as much as I do, but for my money, these chonky bois are the best Sharkticons out there. Except for the lack of antennas, which required a bit of good old British bodging, but with that fix in place.... I love 'em. I may well get a second set of these delightful (and cheap) little bastards.

    Spray painted cocktail sticks. They look good.

    Def going to get me a set of these at some point. I hope this teaches KO Makers that they can OS basic figures to MP scale and theres a market.

    Theres MP and theres MP scale, As long as the scale is there, some of us can deal with the fact its not an MP in terms of aesthetics/transformations/accessories etc, especially if the price is right and the figure looks decent. Some improvement would go a long way though.

    Plenty of legends Id get if they were OSKO to MP scale. Just saying. DX9 Dinobots.. SM. A 10 dollar OSKO of NA Cliffjumper.. sure why not. OSKO SS86 Blurr

    Curses! I was going to spin an elaborate tale about fabricating the parts using my cutting edge 3D printer, painstakingly colour matching using computer software and coating them with top of the range, fade-resistant nano-paint, but it seems you've seen right through me.

    However, I did use an exciting new technique for this elaborate customisation. Instead of my usual "Stuff Wot I Found In Teh Shed" method, I used the innovative new "Stuff Wot I found in Teh Kitchen" (patent pending). I think you'll agree the results are nothing short of spectacular.

    (Please note that if you wish to use this idea yourself, you owe me ten quid)

    Yes my set came with 3 guns but was missing the instructions!
    This is my attempt. Also using Cocktail sticks but with a small 3D printed base. I had the idea before your post so we'll split the difference and I'll send you a fiver!
