    Hopefully true. I just need an OS Blackout now and I'm good to go!

    He'd go really well with BA's Optimus, but man he'll be just massive. I wonder if there are additional improvements/ changes to him?

    EDIT: I can't find that particular post on the page. Is it still up?

    Really hope there will be a battle damage/dirty variant like Dream Factory did for their ROTF Megatron. With gold replaced by bronze tints. I think that and OS KO it would make it irresistible for me.

    Damnit, I want the bigger one but with the custom head...

    Same with the BMB Megs, it'd be perfect with DFs head.

    Hmm. The Honey Badger Don't Give A Fuck MPM Megatron KO arrived and I'm not impressed.

    Strangely, I think I prefer the sparse, flawed deco of my original over this top to toe gunmetal spray job. It isn't lifted by the gold accents in the way I expected in hand and genuinely does not pop as well as the much criticised official deco, actually utilising colour break up in a much poorer fashion. In doing so, he comes across as pretty damn boring. That and he has a veeeeery floppy bicep swivel which probably isn't the end of the world at half price of the official but does make me question a big change made to the figure compared to MPM-8.

    While I think that removing the diecast back plate was a good idea (purely cos that thing is absolutely gonna rust), the rearrangement of the rest of the metal for - I assume - better weight distribution makes fuck all sense to me. Putting it in the forearms accentuates the weakness my copy has in the bicep swivel and placing it in the knees removes the lovely solid footing the MPM had in those shiny steel stompers. And one more click forward in the hips I couldn't exactly call making a huge stride.

    Badger boy went back in the box with nary a photo taken, which doesn't bode well for his survival at Casa Napalm. May well flip it, and I expected it to go very much the other way.

    My shipment's been at JFK Airport in Import Arrival since September 22nd. Is that normal? I don't order from ShowZ often.

    Customs from ShowZ on average for me take around 7 days. I know the wait is hard lol, mine went in on the 21st so hopefully it can leave JFK tomorrow or the day after

    Also, to clear up confusion, that eBay listing with the lighter silver colored Megatron is likely this new upscale Megatron. Capcomkai posted some images on it that are the same as the one from eBay. It’s predicted to release by the end of this month. Hope that helps :)

    Mine has been there since the 21st... I miss when things used to land in Chicago. They would be there a day or two then move on.
