    Looks good man! Question though? How are the joints and have you Transformed him yet? I have the KO of Nemesis and IMHO it wasn't a great copy/KO. Hip ratchets feel as if they're bout to break,loose arms and I can't align the arms properly for Cab mode and list goes on. Hoping yours don't have all those issues as mine did.

    If you look at all the pics, they're the same thing. If those pics are indicative of what you'd get, I'd say it's a KO. They're not genuine at all. First, is the pin on the index finger. The "genuine" MP-10 don't have the pin. Then there's the spikes on the axe accessory. To this date, NO KO MP-10 has ever gotten them right. They're always crooked, curved, bent or looking like some flaccid spikes. The genuine MP-10 will always have straight spikes on that.

    Haven't actually had time to check it out yet, but I will soon.

    @Dark Skull Thanks man! I am pleased though with the foam they packed him with. Mines came in the typical plastic container and somehow got warped/shoved in while the outside box was perfect lol.

    I would have loved this if instead of a trailer, they included a Coffin to stick him in.

    Where did you order yours from? I did finally take it out and transform it:

    Joints are tight/stiff. Nothing wrong there. But I did experience a bit of paint chip/rub while transforming it. Bummer. It's not bad, but you'd really have to look for it to see it. It's on the wheel well/ribs (in bot mode). And apparently, they're numbered:

    Mine is #30 :D

    @Dark Skull I got mine from TF-Direct awhile ago. Mine sucks but @ the end of the day it does its job by standing on my shelf opening it's chest showing it's matrix. As for yours it looks great in both modes! Really tempted but I wish they would sell it w/o the trailer to save me some money.

    Guess it wouldn't hurt to ask but @ the same time I have other High priority figures I have to get first. That Optimus does look great though;)

    It is a rather nice one :)  For a KO. I just wish the off white parts were more greyish like the 86 movie. Perhaps one day when I'm in the mood to do customs again, I can paint it. :lol

    I honestly think it's fine the way it is. I'm digging the gray'ish faded red they used on him. It would be cool if it had more of a battle damage look to it like how he looked in the movie.

    Yeah I'm just being nitpicky :lol  Kinda like what I did when I did the MP-10GL I looked up pictures of Green Lantern and tried my best to emulate the green, black, and white parts of the costume:

    [​IMG]

    Though the KO BAPE grey one used silver in the parts where MP-10S had the off white, that one looked more to be "darker" and more along the lines of the 86 movie in terms of color scheme.

    Uhhh....yeah no :p  Maybe if I dared to use my dremel I can make some bullet holes. But I don't want to chance it :lol  Besides, it should be cracks n stuff, and I'm not so sure how to go about doing that.

    I had bulk version but sold it off. I had the KO and bulk in hand at the same time. Maybe someone with a legit MP10 can corroborate but the MP10 has the black navel / bellybutton (for want of a better word) further down the yellow plastic square above the crotch, and there are also fewer grills below the cab windows.

    See my pic
    20180314_201750.jpg

    From the looks of the eBay listing, those match my bulk prime.

    And comparing the bulk to the KO, the quality and plastic feel was much better on the bulk. Hope that helps
