    Saw this posted to Instagram, no context, just something someone spotted in a convenience store. Anyone know what it is? Definite Impactor vibes.

    Was there a beige version of the OS Siege Hound that actually got released or did I imagine it?

    Word of advice, the grey megatron tank does some origami... don't try and twist the ball joint hips for a different orientation, you might get stress signs on the ball joint inserted to the crotch (a likely fear, so I swam wide of the possibility :lol )

    When you rubix-cube the right way, it'll all make sense.

    No directions in the set, so tread lightly on movements. :thumb 

    Also, the included purple pieces for combined mode - 1 makes a simple crotch piece, the other actually connects the onslaught to the megatron in combined mode... floored me for a bit, but I dig these blind puzzles.

    About to mess with the fruticus version soon. ;)

    Ok so I didn’t imagine it, but it was never released was it? Looking at the images again, it might have even been a custom or a photo edit.

    Well, I hope whoever has WJ’s molds decides to finally make this recolor, because I don’t want to go through the hassle of trying to paint the normal color one.

    That's what I thought, but not seen a KO of that yet.

    I was kind of expecting that tan repaint to appear a while ago... and then it didnt' and I forgot about it.

    Weijiang's demise makes me sad because I think they were working on some cool stuff -- both KO and original. Plus, I'd really like a re-release for their Ultima Guard.

    Looks cool but definitely simplified.

    I don't see it as very simplified. Looks pretty close.

    Why does Build Typhoon have some weird Naruto looking symbol on his chest?

    Why is Build Hurricane named after a German optical electronic company?

    Mine arrived, haven't had time to mess with it yet... but it is definitely undersized.

    OSKO's and USKO's tend to find their way to my doorstep like strays. :lol
