He's here! Huge and pretty awesome! A little more plasticky than I was expecting, and the front and rear halves of his torso don't seem to want to stay together. Still getting familiar, though, I might figure it out.

QC: The arm cannon is missing the little battery door, and the chain has a knot in it, seems to have been assembled wrong. Not sure if I want to make a claim with TF-Direct or not.

Edit- after a day with him, I found that the lower mount for each front hip flap was broken. Looks like the figure got pushed downward in the packaging. Good news is the broken bits were still hanging on, and the flaps can still stay on with the upper mounts. I epoxied the lower mounts back together for good measure.

I also noticed that the helmet horns didn't move very easily. So I futzed around and made them move more smoothly and a little further apart.

 

Both BS-02 and BS-02s currently on sale from ShowZ  

 

@svek holy junk hold outs getting fierce BMB sales  

 

And today I've learned that I prefer the battle-damaged version over the plain one I just got.

 

Thanks for the heads up because I've been looking for this guy and the battle damaged version looks to be best.

 

First there was the figure
Then there was the KO
Then there was the weathered KO
Now there's a weathered KO on sale for just $79.99 shipped!!!

ORDERED!

 

Hey so my BS-02 just arrived in the mail today and it has the EXACT same problem, the left calf piece is the wrong one so it's backwards -_- Is there anyone I can contact to fix or get a replacement part? I got it off Ebay.

 

I'd recommend contacting showzstore, they're pretty good about getting replacement parts, even if you didn't buy from them. They will have you cover shipping though, its usually like $10-20.

 

It's all good. Seller was understanding and issued me a refund. So I bought the battle damaged version on showzstore. We'll see how that one is now...

 

So I earned a little break when I was transforming my BS-02s for the first time and recently I decided to finally ask ShowZStore if they can help me.

And they sent me a whole new torso within a month   Great service again

 

Nice! What broke?

 

Some internal tabs holding the torso together. Too much of that sticky dark paint applied  

 

Darn, there is about a $15 price difference between the normal and battle damaged version. I already have Dragoon but I dont mind getting a better detailed version.

 

How's the KO(and the original for that matter..) scales with DLX Threezero TLK Prime? Anyone have any pics? Thanks!

 

Just got him today, i love the lighter COLORED plastic that they used.

Known issues are prevalent, but are easy fixes.

Took out the rotary tool and did shoulders and the head connection for better articulation. Also tightened the ratchets using the small rubberbands used for braces. Now feels as solid as my Dragoon

 

Got him for 50 today. Does anyone have any tips to how to take the batteries out? I've tried to pry them out with my nails and they wouldn't budge.

 

Just got Skybreaker in early this morning before work, but didn’t have time to do anything other than pull the plastic tray he’s in halfway out of the box to quickly glance at him before I had to run. All I can say is that pictures and videos do not do justice to the size of this figure; he’s pretty hecking massive. Despite being a hair shorter than Dragoon, SB is still big as fuck, and I love it lol. He looked absolutely amazing from what I saw of him, so I can’t wait to get home later to really mess around with him!

 

Got a chance to finally mess with Skybreaker this evening, and he’s a really, really cool, if fiddly figure to pose and mess around with. The left knee and hand on mine are unfortunately pretty loose; hopefully I can tighten both up easily enough. I also made the mistake of pegging the shield in too far, which resulted in the peg being left in the forearm once I removed it. Nothing a good pair of pliers couldn’t fix, but I’ll for sure be aware of that going forward and won’t plug the shield in all the way.

Once again, this guy is absolutely massive, easily rivaling my 12 inch Godzilla figures, but I absolutely don’t mind the size either. The die cast in the feet gives the figure a good heft, although the loosy goosey thighs out of the box are a bit annoying to deal with. Like I said, a bit of a fiddle factor. I’m very happy with him, though; the details and paint are absolutely STUNNING, and the accessories are easy to store. This truly is the masterpiece TLK Megatron figure, and I’m glad to finally have my first ever figure of my favorite design for bucket head… And it’s arguably the best one, alongside Dragoon. I haven’t had time to transform him yet; that’ll probably be a tomorrow project that I tackle. But damn, is he a sexy bastard.


The Last Knight was actual shit, but at least Megatron and Barricade were the only good things about it, and the film gave us one of the best Megs designs that the franchise has ever seen.

 

Anyone know how to tighten up the knee joints? Both of mine are loose to the point where they bend backwards from gravity when I’m handling the figure. Would nail polish of super glue be apt? That’s the only major issue I have with it currently.

Transformation to jet mode is… I’ll have to try that again another day. I got to the legs, noped out, and went back to robot mode lol.

 

I've got one of these waiting for me at home, just delivered.

To save me digging back, is it possible for someone to let me know the common problems and common fixes for this figure?

Thanks
