    Wow, you're editing your posts faster than the speed of sound. Don't worry, I got the "complaining leeches bit" quoted.

    No, he's still not going to help out the guy who started the thread, because he tried helping others first, before himself.

    ANYWAYS... to get the thread back on topic.

    Thank you for the heads up to avoid the KO Lucky Draw Henkei Convoy. $60 well saved.

    No, I get what you're trying to say - you're upset he made a THREAD about your product (which, honestly, I had no idea was your product until you made a huge giant stink post about it) which makes YOU look bad and DISSUADES PEOPLE FROM BUYING IT, thus LOSING YOU MONEY.

    Now, because TFW2005 won't remove this thread because it is not against the rules in any way, shape, or form, you're ONCE AGAIN saying that if TFW2005 doesn't keep me happy, I'm going to take my pictures that I post all over the Internet that every site already puts on their frontpage anyways away from them.

    So the short story is this - a guy made a negative thread about your product, you got spooked because you think it's going to dissuade people from purchasing your products, you made a veiled threat to all your customers in a post stating that if they don't contact you first, you're not going to help them, you then attack this site's moderators because they refuse to bend to your will, and now once you've NOT gotten your way, you're threatening to take your "exclusive news/pics/videos" elsewhere. To save face, you've spent the last 30 minutes editting all of your posts.

    Do your thing dude. In my honest opinion, this entire thing is pathetic. You sure you're not Hal Zucatti, Glen Hallit, or Bill from BTAG in disguise? Seriously.

    The world might explode. How can they post news if we don't post it first?

    :lol 

    Sorry, I had to. :)  <3 you Ryan!

    well that's what its like, how many times do you guys make a big deal out of positive KO stuff from me? Never

    But when there's a problem I get mods and admins in nagging me and putting me down

    I dont like coming here just to take care of a problem once in a while, especially when it could have been dealt with privately, a lot less stressful for me.

    why would I want to be a part of this community or help it thrive?


    Again, just put me down, see it never stops

    so ya, dont even link to my stuff anywhere

    How about you JUST DONT GET IT AT ALL? JUST DONT POST IT? is that ok?? are you cool with that? can we part our ways peacefully, knowing I helped your site for almost 2 years exclusively without 1 thank you from admin ? You got million + views, all I got was complaints.

    I'm pretty certain that was a friendly dig at Seibertron...

    Thread back on topic now.

    KO Lucky Draw Henkei Convoy is apparently a bad buy. Thanks for the heads-up, yet again.

    damn. just... damn.

    I was considering buying one of these!

    ANYWAYS, I am thankful to the guy who started this topic for saving me, and many others from finding out the hard/bad way about how this turned out. I hope the second batch fixes the issues for you guys.

    This thread has been incredibly entertaining, and really shows everything I hate about the internet.

    Anyways, on topic, I will MOST CERTAINLY never buy the knock-off LD Optimus, Screamer, or any other chromed knock off. I have enough issues with vac-metallized chrome on stuff actually from Hasbro to even bother with apparently inferior work.

    I want a LD in my collection someday, but between more flaking than Transmetal Rattrap and creeps on eBay sticking this in Henkei Convoy boxes for thousands of dollars, I'll have to go with a different mold, one that I know is actually legit.

    I have to admit I'd probably fork out $30 or so for Legends Beachcomber with one gold fist. :lol

    I was just about to post feedback about the quality of my RotF Scattorshot toy, and then I came across this thread... Now I'm thinking that I should contact Hasbro first before posting feedback, just to make sure that they are okay with it.

    :D

    Gold chrome is frightening enough as it is. I guess my biggest question is how anyone thought a gold chrome knock-off would somehow ever be in good condition? I dunno, I just couldn't drop $60 on something like that...and hopefully no one else will now either.

    I usually haaaaate chrome on toys. It never turns out well. For example, I have a chrome headed Destro who's starting to look like George Costanza.

    Agreed - I also have a hard time seeing why one would drop that much on an imitation Lucky Draw.

    The appeal of LDs to me is their rarity, after all.

    I am really suprised at the public flogging here.

    Bad form guys, seriously.

    I will wait to see how the second run looks before placing my order.
    I am terribly afraid of GPS on ANY figure. Let alone a KO.

    Sounds like a rushed push to get these moved. I am willing to bet that the quality control will be quite a bit better on the next run.

    All in all a good thread to bring the issues to light. I would have probably sent GenZhao a message first to see what I could find out.

    The underlying color of the plastic isn't the swirly gold with metallic flakes, and that's what you have to worry about with regards to GPS. You can see it in the photos, it's a light brown as far as I can see.

    The chrome plating isn't part of the equation.
