    I bought the JJ set and as much as I love it, the individual bots just don’t do it for me. I recommend it for the combined form if you collect 18” bots. Hopefully I’ll be able to pick up this zeta set at some point.

    Anyone here that owns both of them? I can't decide whether to get Kronos or Superitron...

    If someone would be kind enough to make a side by side under normal lighting that would be greatly appreciated

    I’m hoping Kronos overstock gets heavily discounted now that this is out

    Purchased. It's the MPP-10 autobot symbol that you can buy off of Ebay for ~$6.

    Is it the shoulder one? I believe I've seen an MPP-10 trailer sized version as well.

    I think he's a brilliant big bot, and a fantastic toy with robots and jetplanes in the mix! The silver-white colour looks especially good if you ask me.

    Yeah! I was kind of put off at the beginning when I saw him ,cus the in the pics I saw him in he seemed really grey, and I was expecting more of a pearlescent white (since the promo pics made it look white) but now seeing how glossy and silver the paint is, it has really won me over

    Most of my friends in the Transformer Club who has both Kronos and Superitron, enjoy Superitron way more between the two.

    Just watched a review and I fell in love with the metallic version. A buddy of mine is considering buying my standard version (giving him a good deal). If he does, then I'll be getting the metallic version. First time ever doing an "upgrade" and first time ever selling a toy - both things I find distasteful - but damn I love that metallic paint.

    Is it just toys you find distasteful 'upgrading' or is that a general rule of thumb with everything you buy.

    Always found this curious.

    Toys mostly. I mean I already feel like this entire hobby is a waste of money that I have to convince myself to be ok with so paying for the same character twice just feels unjustifiably wasteful. As for selling things, I find that distasteful in general - too much hassle listing, packing, and shipping, I really really hate haggling, eBay auctions leave the potential that the high bid might be low enough that it's not worth it, and because I've never sold on eBay, I have no reputation which means I'd have to take lower bids since people have no reason to trust me.

    In the past I've upgraded on a couple of figures but with those I gave the old ones to my nephew which helped ease my conscience - I may be wasting money but I'm also making my nephew happy so that makes it alright. Superion is too much for me to just give away, though, no matter how much I like my nephew.

    I'm getting the metallic version and KEEPING my old version, and selling the FT Aerialbots I have. Zeta did a WAY better job with these bot modes than their Bruticus'... they're not perfect, but they're definitely good enough, especially with the new decos. (I'm thinking I'll use my old Kronos limbs on the new Superitron torso and extremities, but display the Superitron 'bots individually)

    Yeah but everybody who was ever a college freshman knows that slippery slope is always a fallacy so I should be fine, right? :D
