    HOLY SHIT LOOKS INCREDIBLE! I would have waited an eternity for this...
    Same! I love having the vehicle mode being the “complete” product, all neatly packed together. Vehicle mode weapon storage is too often overlooked or done in a really half-assed way.

    Yeah there’s a fine line between cool integration and overcomplication

    With Orion and Challenger I was like “we’re so close to perfection but the Knight prime race is over”. But then TMT happens and it’s like dreams become reality haha.
    Weapon being part of vehicle is very good if it isn’t done in a horrible way or too complicated way. So I like it.
    But is it just me or does his head look a little off?

    It's just a render, but the bot mode looks so much better than what's available. The size is right too. The shield transforming worries me. I don't want unnecessary hinges and joints in the shield.

    Now to see the alt render.

    Looks great, but no history with the company and most likely another year and a half before a release. I want to say this guy easily wins against TW, but there’s nothing to actually prove that with just a render.

    That is very interesting. Let's just hope we are not getting excited over nothing. Yes I am thinking about you KFC God Ginrai...

    I just sent @ibot a PM over this KFC God Ginrai. I will probably never get an answer. Seeing some companies were closed probably made others scared and give up on some projects they had. Maybe the same will happen to some future figures. Like this one? I hope not though

    And if this turns out good, it’ll be a good ending to the Knight Prime party

    There was a picture of what seems to be a foot and sword, kidding.

    Let's see what this company can do. Stay away from the gimmicks (lights, etc..), if it gets in the way of the accuracy/articulation of the toy. If the gimmicks doesn't compromise as much, I am all for it.

    I'm still curious about this guy's truck mode. The designer said that this has a sculpted interior, let's hope we get a picture of truck mode next.

    I wonder if they'll do the last knight bumblebee or aoe bumblebee because those haven't been done yet even though they already have three bumblebee's that are in production but I really want one

    This looks awesome! Seems like TMT takes the cake for most accurate in terms of detail wise. I hope they put the effort in paint similar to ToyWorld. Proportions looks just right and especially the legs and feet. Only another year+ to wait :(
