Exciting news! I am doing an interview with Phil reed on sat about his 3rd party reference book "transforming collections".

If you have a question for Phil please let me know but Friday, and I'll see what I can do

[Cat]

Yeah, I do.

On the KS page, he lists what he defines as the difference between third party and a KO.

Yet it seems the X-Transbots Wheelie will be featured. It's a KO of a Wonderfest kit, which made it a licensed item.

So why is he including that one, even though it's a KO, and against his own definition?

Am I missing something there, does he not know about the Wonderfest kit, what? I'm curious.

[griffin]

Ask him... maybe he just didn't know (few people do).

[KalEl]

See what I can do any other questions?

Sorry but I hate podcasts/audio/video reviews/interviews. Just not my thing.

Did you ask the question about Wheelie?

[Sky Shadow]

Sorry but I hate podcasts/audio/video reviews/interviews. Just not my thing.

Did you ask the question about Wheelie?

Not just Wheelie too - they also knocked off Jizaitoys' Powerglide who was also a legitimate Winter and Summer Wonder Festival exclusive.

(I agree with your first sentence too - I like reading.)

ill have to listen to it again... I fell asleep what? I was listening to it at night time after work, a bit tired... it's sort of like a radio to me, but yeah I got only to about Phil's intro and poof... I remember nothing , next thing I knew it was 7 am But I'll listen to it again while reaaranging my collection room.

T'was a good interview & I can't wait to receive my copy, especially as it has been bumped up to:

• 8"x8"
• 48 pages
• Hardcover

In the case of Wheelie & Powerglide, I remember hearing or reading somewhere that those molds were actually sold or leased for the production of the figures that you guys are calling KOs - If I remember or can find the source for this, I'll post it here.
