    I have had mine for almost 3 years and never noticed. Solves one of my gripes with the figure.

    It does help with one of my issues with the articulation. I still really like this figure, even if it is flawed.

    If the rumored reissue is true then I'll probably buy this guy again. I miss it, and I have some modding and painting skills now that I didn't have in 2017. I wish they'd do an upgraded head like challenger though.

    How long ago did you get rid of yours? I feel like it wasn't that long ago you posted pictures of him on IG, unless they were old pics, or age is taking my memory :confused:

    I haven't had PK for almost two years haha! I have posted SS Lockdown a few times, and I've done some custom work on him so maybe you are misremembering?

    Whoa you learned a lot between 2018 to 2019. Kudos to you bro! :D 

    I used to do all those stuff but haven't been doing 'em for a long while. Now I'm kinda rusty lol

    Thanks! Yeah some of it is just having way more paints and tools and some of it is having more experience.

    After waiting for the re-issue of Peru Kill over an year, I learnt about the BSL and VT KOs which have some weight to them in terms of the price, design, paint for both Lockdown, Steeljaw, issues/qc problems etc pros and cons. So, was about to purchase a BSL copy from Aliexpress. Still I decided to try to reach out to TFS and Australia's Savier's Toys and I got replies from them, TFS said the re-issue is going to happen but they cannot say when and keep an eye on the date (I have been doing that since so many months lol..) and Saviors Toys told 3P always delay and they extend.

    So would we be really getting them despite all that Wei Jiang & R04-Nero pre-order drama, I really doubt as the pre-order page at TFS has been there since a long time. I have a question did anything like this happen, such as a 3P Preorder page on a TF shop staying up for such long period of time and in the end the product won't come or comes..?

    So I accidentally bought the KO VT version of this figure and want to know what else is changed between the original and this. Mostly want to know the cons to this purchase

    Well the pros is that he comes with a more articulated head. The only con I can think of is that his color scheme is a significantly darker shade of black compared to the greyish matte black of the original. How are the joints?

    Search up reviews, the paint isn’t quite up to par in my opinion, it’s more of a matte black, the “BS” and original versions both have a matte grayish with little sparkles in its paint; I own the original. Although he does come with a Lamborghini sign, if paint doesn’t bother you it shouldn’t be a problem

    Just wanted to share this photo of Peru Kill. He's pretty good but lack of articulation and the godforsaken knees kill the figure sometimes. Still recommend if you like the movies and Lockdown. Shoutout to SeahawkSpeed for selling me the
    figure. (Still upset over Ratchet's death, which is why I recreated the scene)

    Does anyone here know what the deal with the TFSource preorder listing for this guy is? I thought UT was done after Nero.

    UT and DX9 are done making new figures, but it is possible/likely they will be making re-issues or repaints.

    It has been like that since 2 years, I waited and waited then sent a message, they replied it may or may not come, the usual answer. Same with some Australian shop too. So that was never coming at all and also as mentioned above UT is probably done making 3P figures sadly. As far as this figure goes, it is not possible to purchase anymore from UT or BSL Toys, I got BSL Toys version in 2020 from Aliexpress, which is exactly same like UT also many here and Bennskollectibles on YT said BSL could be UT themselves. To own AOE Lockdown the only option is to get Visual Toys KO.
