Seems there are more KO threads these days, than official 3rd Party stuff. Here is another one, not sure if this is news or not or if it should be just added to the KO thread, but these days it seems each major KO has its own thread. Its what the title says it is

G2?

 

Oversized?

 

Interesting. Looks like G2 and has diecast now? I wonder what the scale will be and how heavy it's gonna be..

 

nah. an OS one would be sick but not in G2 colors.

 

That's not G2 color.

 

Yea you're right, I had to google him to remember the color scheme. So wtf is MachineBoy going for aesthetic/color-wise?

 

Hopefully this is priced way cheaper than the other KO which is almost the same price as the Warbotron figure.
I need this to be around $150 for me to bite.

 

I sure wished the KO feet would be released separately

 

At first I thought those were Battle Gaia colors... but they're not.

 

Looks more like Energon Bruticus Maximus colors except Vortex is blue instead of orange like the second helicopter from that set

 

That blue Vortex would make a nice basis for a Rotorstorm custom.

 

Is this the same company do the higher quality KO Feral Rex?

 

So these are separate to WuKong Warbotron KOs, or are they companies related?

I don't think so, but Machine Boy also goes by the names Meng Badi and Fancy Cell Toys.

The color on these is more inpsired by Energon Bruticus Maximus than G2.

 

I'd love them if they were Battle Gaia or G2 colors but, as is, I'll pass.

 

I just saw Blast Off and Vortex listed on ebay for $25.99 each including shipping!

Brawl and Swindle out later this month. Onslaught in August.

 

Here's a link for whoever's interested. Looks awesome, I'll wait for the onslaught

 

I am trying to see the names listed on the pictures of the display. It looks like Vortex is called Nightingale and Swindle is called Foxhound. I can barely read the Blast Off name, looks to be Shadow Shuttle?

 

20 pounds you serious ?

These have diecast right ,oversized ?

 

I think no and no. I think the initial reports of both were wrong, but I will confirm when my Nightingale toy arrives in the mail. I expect normal sized and all plastic.

The ebay listing does not mention diecast, and says they are about 7 inches tall, Voyager size.
