    he looks really good but I dont like the plastic quality. Going to wait to see what the MP version of him is like.

    Apparently the second run (seriously, like a few weeks after launch?) is improved, with some new paint decos, etc.

    There's some feedback to KFC in the TFW2005 thread.

    Personally, I'm happy with mine (possibly because, although a cheaper-feeling purchase, it arrived with the QC quandary that Cubex made), but considering KFC's emails to vendors are a bit different in tone to their Facebook page comment to the public, I'm happy to officially say #fuckKFC

    I've got what I have ordered on the way (a couple of Batbat versions from Ace's Toy Store), and could only possibly be tempted by the upcoming DAI Citizen Stack, because I don't like the chances are of Takara making a Diaclone/86 promo reel Magnus.

    Unfortunately, much like Cubex, KFC has hit my list of 3rd party to avoid. FT, Toyworld and Planet X have spoiled me in that regard.

    Yer, I thought about it but yer, his truck is a hollow shell and I've heard mixed reports about the quality of their products we'll just have to see I guess... But as for me personally, official will always come first. I can't wait to see the painted taktom Um... We haven't even seen bumblebee's yet!

    I watched a few reviews of this guy, and it has me wondering if these reviewers are on someone's payroll

    I agree. Official always wins. And a friendly tip: it's yeah, not "yer".

    I've been foliowing the boards on TFW about KFC Magnus and QC has emerged as an issue. Apparently there are fixes for the V2 of the toy but many are feeling pretty shafted with the release being so recent still.

    KFC do nice looking stuff but if it doesn't hold together well, I can't play

    Haha I have a friend who drops yer's on me regularly. I haven't the heart to tell her it's "yeah". Is "yeh" acceptable, master Trent sir?

    No it's not. Spelling words wrong doesn't make you look cool or hip or whatever the hell kids call it these days, it just makes you look like you're dumb and can't spell/speak.

    Lol I can't say that I was aiming to be 'cool, or hip' I'd say just lazy. Thanks for the lesson but.
