This Toto shop is somewhat of a shitposter on the Chinese boards.

 

Additional info

Ah, so not exactly believeable then?

 

Who is Capcomkai?

 

No idea really

 

don't worry, capcomkai's reliable. dude gets all the intel for stuff like this.

 

As i said on the other thread. There goes my collecting days. I only liked the OS WJ and BMB stuff with the great paint and improvements. So basically means im done. Least ill save some money now i guess lol..

 

On a side note. Let me pay you to order something from taobao PLEASE?!

 

Welp at least this happened after bmb got their dinobots out, but there goes chances of getting an upsized g1 colored slash

 

Oversizing something was supposed to be considered a significant change under chinese law. So really they should only be tetchy about 1-1 KO with minimal changes like the MP Megatron KO's for example.

Im still not going to give Takara $200 - $300 for something MP though no matter how many whales they think they can find to hunt. I'm ultimately a Toy collector not a premium statue collector.

 

Interrrrressssting.

Maybe FPT picked the right moment to try to go more legit with WJ :/

 

I'm taking this with a big grain of salt.

But if it's true, I'm disappointed. This is just one more thing pushing me away from Hasbro.

Without the novelty of the KO market, I think I'll done with the hobby. I used to buy the official stuff, and then get the interesting variants made by KO companies (like WJ) but recently Hasbro has priced me out of the mass market with their tiny, overpriced, over-packaged Siege stuff, and their junky oversimplified Cyberverse stuff.

Kind of ironic that it's probably the KO market that's kept me attached to the official market for this long...

But this might be premature. Who knows if this is real, or if it will actually change anything?

OSKO G1 POTP Dinobots are out. Video review in link:

- KO OS POTP dinobots

 

Exactly

 

Interesting. I was trying to find some information from Black Mamba’s Facebook page a couple days ago but that seems to have disappeared. That can’t just be a coincidence can it?

And I am referring to their more recent page, btw, not the one they abandoned a couple years ago which they left up for some reason.

Black Mamba had been releasing 1:1 KOs of TLK voyagers though.

 

@capcomkai

 

I disappear for a couple days and again I see "Hasbro sued x company" 'News'......


Nothing changes ever does it?

 

Hastak is really pissing me off. As soon as SS shockwave was announced, I was ecstatic because I saw this as an opportunity for (finally) a MPM scale shockwave. If the OS isn't getting made, I think I'm done collecting for a while 

 

For all those getting agitated at hasbro for defending their products, this was an inevitability

 

News update. Somebody decided to confront wj and bmb regarding if the news is true or not. Both said no, and they are fine. BMB even laughing there on the chat screenshot.

 

Ah some good news lol
