    If you want OSKO, why not just buy the MP one?

    .... I'd totally buy one and hope someone finds the measurements to upscale and 3D print those Dinomus armor kits for it..

    To appreciate the Bluebolt character, collectors should read the following two-part translated manga from Tets' Toys and Shenanigans:

    Part 1: Tets' Toys and Shenanigans: End of G1 Universe Manga translation!
    Part 2: Tets' Toys and Shenanigans: End of G1 Universe Manga translation part 2

    Yes, as has been lamented countless times, the Beast Alliance Airazor and Terrorsaur oversized releases have unusually small hands. And yes, this has been carried over to Bluebolt. But just as how this fact didn't stop me from adding Airazor to my MP beast shelf, it won't stop me now from posing Bluebolt next to the upcoming MP-48+ Dark Amber Leo Prime. It's a character likely never to see the light of day, and I am glad we have a chance to own one.

    For me, choosing between supporting this today or missing out on the limited run, it was a no-brainer. Get on it, guys!

    Price? The main point of those KOs is to be affordable MP scaled figures, cheaper than the regular MP KOs, take Primal as an example. Beside that, the more recent MP Dinobot KO reissue came with a lot of qc issues.

    I wasn't a fan of the MP mold; too over-complicated and too many faux parts (although yes, the $45 KO is tempting). The Kingdom figure is closer to the Dinobot I'd like, but the design falls short in a couple areas.

    I like Kingdom Tigatron better than the MP as well, haha. I like Kingdom's more realistic (instead of cartoony) beast modes, and I prefer a more elegant transformation over hundreds of tiny fiddly parts and hinges.

    Cheaper than anything Beast Alliance is putting out. Infinite Transformation IT-02 Masterpiece MP-41 Dinobot Beast War
    Idk, just seems silly to wait for something that doesn't exist when what fulfills your desire is right there already.

    And being scared to even touch it because it might break during the transformation? Not to mention the countless adjustments to be made for everything to peg together? Nah, it's not worth it.

    Plus, I got Primal and Airazor for almost that price, so to say it's cheaper than everything Beast Alliance is pulling out? Quite exaggerated.

    The first batch arrived yesterday. I will ship them out this weekend to those who have ordered. If anyone hasn't ordered one yet, there are still some available.

    Woo! That’s exciting, happy to see that these came together. Would love to get to a point where we can see a Fractyl down the line as well.
