    I use Testor's clear parts cement. Works as good as those suggestions, much easier to clean up (if you have an accident, or whatever) then super glue or nail polish and almost as good as Future (just as easy too).

    Aliexpress does not combine shipping in my experiences with them

    They've grow on me for Superion but, yeah, I'm planning on keeping my modded Hasbro hands for Menasor and especially Defensor (who is more of a brawler for me).

    I way prefer the feet but wish they were like 10-15% smaller. That goes for the real set, too. Just a little too far in the other direction from the Hasbro ones.

    I have the nonnef feet on order, 2 sets of black and one purple, got these just to see if I liked them before preordering the pe bruticus feet. One thing is for sure, one of the purple feet sets will probably get sold, though the pe feet do look good with the pe torso upgrade

    I picked up a real PE purple set and I'm actually kind of disappointed with them compared to the white KO set I have.

    The PE set feels lighter to me, almost kind of a "hallow" feel while the KO white ones has a surprising amount of heft to them. The purple ones don't really peg together as well. It's like there's some flashing or something SOMEWHERE in it that is interfering but I can't find any. The 5mm pegs and that ankle ball joint are just fine though, not as tight as the KO white set but very happy with it. The purple hands are solid though, the KO white was a bit loose when plugged into Superion but the purple ones fit perfectly in Blast Off. If I didn't know which was which, I'd swear the purple ones were the KO.

    In case anyone was wondering how the blue ones looked on Ultra Prime, the answer is: not bad at all.

    I bought the KFC Star Sabre hands for my Defensor and Superion Combiners, I just have to paint the ones for Defensor Black. I'll be buying two more sets for Menasor and Bruticus.

    I just don't like those PE feet, too damn big for my tastes.

    That looks wonderful. The colors don't look bad together at all. How do they hold up the combiner?

    Where can I buy these? It doesn't appear that Sirtoys has them and I am not sure about the other means mentioned in the thread.

    How big are these compared to the originals? The feet sort of look smaller than the PE ones.

    Also kinda bummed I can't save on shipping by ordering all three at once and have them ship together.

    For those who ordered from Uncle Billy, how long did they take to ship to the US?
