    Wasn’t that proven to just be MP-44 itself?

    No trailer is a win in my book, kick that shit to the curb along with all the other junk they stuck in there to drive up the price. Cab, gun and matrix, that’s all I need.

    That said the last couple MP KOs have been very hit or miss when it comes to construction and durability so this one would definitely be a ‘wait for multiple reviews’.

    Given the price tag and problems of the official version, this KO was inevitable. It was only a matter of time.
    We'll wait and see how the reviews turn out.

    If they're cutting unneeded extras, maybe drop the voice box and make a smaller backpack? I mean, it looks like it's too late for that, but it would have been nice...

    I'm interested if for nothing else than to be able to try the mold out without paying an arm and a leg for it.

    Seems like they're keeping all the accesories other than the trailer, roller, and the starscream parts (at least that's what I was able to get from it being put through google translate). That's fine with me. I don't have the room to display the trailer, or a need to display it.

    If only they could figure out a way to remove the backpack.
