I see there's a new KO of Ultra Magnus available, this one in the newer Henkei all white deco: Aliexpress.com : Buy DXKO white ultra magnus. In stock! from Reliable DXOP suppliers on Uncle Billy Couldn't find any mention of this. It must be new, and it's listed as "DXKO" which I believe was the prefix used by the newer Classics Optimus and Shattered Glass Optimus KOs, so, could be higher quality than the older ones? Anyone have one of these in hand and can say if there's ratchet joints and such, some way to tell between the KO and the legit? [edit] he's selling the white version of the city commander armor, too, in case anyone wants to buy from the same seller.
Why aren't they using the new mold with the separate pieces for the side windows instead of painted clear sides?
$40 for a KO voyager... no thanks. Other than the KO White City Commander set (which is ugly and likely crap like the other CC KO's), I see no use for it.
I bought the white KO CC armor from Uncle Billy and it fits absolutely perfectly on my red KO prime with the separate clear windows and solid red plastic sides, but it fits loosely on my new Takara white Magnus (the shoulders hang at an angle and the crotch plate falls off). I really think the new red KO Prime is better than the authentic Takara Magnus. This white KO is half the price of the Takara, but they don't show it having the new sides in the photos.

So... no one has one in-hand, then? It might be good to know if there's a way to tell the legit one from the KO.
I noticed daelite20 is taking preorders at Aces, too - if anyone gets one in hand, or daelite, if you're around, can you let us know if there's any way to tell the KO from the original?
