    The scale is unlikely to ever change anymore, they are too far in. I hate that they done it, but there is nothing you can do. Annoying as it is, I have moved on and collected what is available of what I like. So far the scaling did not affected my interest as I split MP1 and Megatron to the Binaltech shelf.

    Try and not let the scale bug you too much. Is a pain but I let it go.
    I understand the change in scale was probably more due to costs, profit margins and to keep the figures affordable but it just throws the original MP collection off a bit... That plus the binaltech stuff.
    I do appreciate the newer figures tho...
    I just don't buy em
    Must resist...................

    yeah I couldn't seeing they went as far as Bumblebee. It be interesting if the KO's are caught by Nissan or whoever and press charges instead of Tomy Takara.

    btw guys, it is out on Ebay, so please be weary when you buying a cheap mp prowl. It looks like the original.

    While the comic is funny, to my eyes they seem indistinguishable and I wouldn't know which one was real or not. Glad I ordered at the time of release even if it is missing missile launchers
    On the lookout for MISB Headmaster Highbrow, Takara or Hasbro. I'm sure I could make you a sweet deal!

    Wow some of these sellers are selling it with launchers for $50. This is just bad.
    I seen Dr Wu launchers are going for $21 delivered so if you see this, I bet some people would be interested in customizing a bluestreak KO when it is released.

    Not sure if anyone had reviewed the KO prowl, but I am sure more are to come.

    If you are just after the launchers. I been thinking whether I wanted one. I may skip it for now as it is not a must for me.

    FYI if you do a search on this topic someone has shown videos of the ko prowl, there isn't much of a close up on the badge. The paint work doesn't seem to be as glossy.
