    High quality knock offs of high quality knock offs seems weirdly redundant to me. Would a KO really be cheaper than what Apollyon already costs? I didn't think it was that expensive?

    Pretty much the only thing I want an oversized bootleg of is a Leader/supreme-sized Animated Lugnut.

    Either Side arm Sideswipe or DOTM sideswipe OS to HA size

    Doesn't solve your problem per say, but did you know there is a really nice armor knight KO that's the same size as WeiJiang's AOE Evasion Prime?

    Really? I was honestly planning on getting the WeiJiang Evasion Mode Optimus, so I'd be okay with a good KO of Armor Knight in his height. I can't find it on Sirtoys, since all their Western Star Optimus KOs have all just meshed into one mental image in my mind. Maybe you can give me a link? Thanks!

    If you want Devastator to be the same height as the other CW Combiners, that is ok but saying he is out of scale is debatable.

    The deluxe class combiners are suppose to be same height as the autobot car bots. The "scale chart" shows the constructicons as taller than them.

    Nerf Megatron and Toyworld Megatron are both about Voyager height, making CW Devastator perfect size.

    Optimus Prime AoE KBBAD31L - TF-Movie - SirToys.com

    There's the link and here's a picture. :) 

    Also, the backpack on this guy is designed to be removable. They changed the attachment so it just snaps on and off. (I prefer it on because I like the hip skirts, but it's a nice option.)

    Nice! Paint quality looks good and he's even US retail price! I'm assuming he only has the battlemask? And I like the Megastriker shotgun you gave Evasion Optimus, where's it from?

    He's got both faces. They're hard plastic rather than the rubber on the Takara version (which I kind of prefer).

    The paint seems to come off more easily. I've been meaning to add a clear coat because of this. The paintwork on the eyes wasn't quite as good (I've retouched mine). The outer face vents aren't molded quite as deeply. They look fine, but if you do a side by side comparison they aren't quite as nice.

    As far as I can tell he's pretty comparable quality to the real thing, just bigger. (no autobot logos on the truck though)


    The gun is by 4Ever (a Chinese company with very little US distribution so far). They also made the incredible Prime 2.0 and have an upcoming ROTF Megatron to match. Their stuff is incredible but not cheap.

    This is the only listing I found on ebay for the gun. Seller looks okay, but I have no experience with him.

    4Ever Studio Battle Gun for DMK01 03 PRIME2 0 Lop Action Figure | eBay

    I bought mine from a seller on ebay as well. Wasn't this guy.

    Thanks! I remember seeing a little die-cast Matrix on eBay a while back, it seems to also have been made by them. Call me crazy, but I'm actually considering buying four of those Megastrikers, one for Mr. Peterbilt, Mr. Marmon, Mr. Western Star, and one to give telescopic barrels to and build his shield on, for movie accuracy.

    Yes, I'm that devoted to screen-accuracy.

    It's worth noting that the gun handle pretty much won't fit in Armor Knight Prime's hand. Handle is bigger than space allowed for him to hold sword.

    He can probably hold it two handed if you rest it properly on his hands. But unless you mod stuff he'll never hold it well or be able to hold it one handed at all. I actually got the gun thinking it might go to him or the AOE DMK Prime. Neither holds it well for the same reason.


    Of course now you've got me wondering if I should buy a second one and shave the handle down until it does fit...

    Maybe the UFO articulated hands? I do intend to buy a few of those and jerry-rig them to fit all my Movie Primes.(With new back of hands for the knight design) If it doesn't work, though, I can settle for just leaving one for Evasion Prime.

    On the subject of oversizing toys, I'd be all over Leader versions of Animated and RTS Voyager Lugnut, and I would buy a Leader version of Classics Astrotrain so hard, you have no clue.

    Possible. But you'll either have to carve them up and mash them together to keep the flame painted hand guard parts, or just completely sacrifice those hand guards.

    Doing that scares me way more than filing off part of the handle (with no one will probably ever see). But if you've got the skills I'm sure it's do able.

    Sounds simple enough. All the weapons I'd ever give Prime fit those hands anyway, so I only need the hand guards, not the fingers.

    All the masterpieces.

    The fact that Masterpiece Cars, smaller than Alternators, cost over twice as much, is just a joke.

    I'd like to see some KO Planet X stuff too. I got all the real deal dinobots, but I can't justify $100+ for the upcoming molds.

    The chestplate would definitely improve Victorion. At the moment, her torso is pretty much identical to Defensor's.
