    That's what ordering from ShowZ is for. So I can be covered if this figure happens to suck QC-wise.

    Yep same feeling here.
    depends what the issue is. Their prime never got an actual fix. Shockwave either.

    For me it depends on the price. If it's cheap enough like FL-01 over here, I'll take the risk. As for their Zeus Toys Shockwave I'm just glad I was late to that party. I heard even the latest copies had issues.

    Looking forward to the release. Might hold off and take a chance that they release a battle damage version. For me I 'll be displaying him in truck. That truck is epic I'm so impatient I'm trying not to buy it now.
    Hoping there are no qc issues

    Definitely! Most my orders come from Show z store. They have great customer service. Where they can help they do.

    Ko are so hit and miss. I think I've only had one bad ko. Broken straight out of the box. But I've always known what I'm getting myself into.
    Bs 02 TLK Megatron is a fantastic figure. Best looking movie Megatron for me.
    BS 03 TLK Optimus Prime. Another beautiful figure. Yet to replace arm ratchets but have the replacement if needed.
    BS 04 TLK Galvatron. Here's hoping!
    BS 05 DOTM Megatron. Here's hoping even more.

    i'd bet greatly on that, given how they can really go a touch further on both details and a few of the issues that was present in the original release, plus the bigger size increase would fit him a tad better as supposed to the logic of him getting smaller

    Definitely think it's a possibility. Imagine the size of that truck! Personally I thought the colours were a little weird on the Unique toys, so it would be cool to see something a little more accurate.

    plus, it can also bring a plethora of opportunities, fix some prone-to-break stuff, and also add a bit more details to flush out a lot of the few barren spots on the figure

    and i'm eager to see them revamp the stock head it comes with, the original had a good template, all they gotta do is make the corroded side of his head have sharper wear and scorch-holes

    The battle damaged head sculpt does look cool. I pretty sure there's a upgrade head sculpt for Nero. Don't think this one comes with the ko.
    I would imagine we could see a early review next week from Prime vs Prime. Show z store usually supply a early copy.

    Only $70 shipped from ShowZ atm. Worth asking for a points adjustment probably.

    @Bakarina I saw that this morning and Holy Junk! Here's hoping it's not due to QC. PTs adjustment automatically applied

    I would love one! Mackatron is by far my favorite Meg... Eventrough I would loved him with his head intact.



    I actually made a Megatron head a while back, both damaged and undamaged.
    Someone asked for pics of the whole one so I can show you this.. need to look up the damaged one..

    BUT we are here for Galvy... I need to see if He needs a head (I already made the doors and wheels.. we will see what else is needed.

    No need to ask, they usually do it automatically. I just checked my account and sure enough I had 1500 points added for the difference. Mine shipped Friday and I did not notice the price difference until just now.

    impressive on the head there! rather reminiscent of Leafage's but without the gnarly scorch holes and gangly bits

    and yeah, at this point, them OSKO'ing Desperado is gonna be a godsend, if not rather expected if they have Nero at this point, it will be a great benefit for the ones who own LS-03F like us!
