The 3rd party acquisitions thread!

Cubex not-Huffer: loosish, a couple of small scuffs on the lefts (not terribly visible in robot mode), but I wouldn't recommend him. Cool design, sub-par manufacturing.

KFC Citizen Stack (not-Magnus): a couple of minor scuffs on the outside panel of the trailer, but nothing major. Cool design, but feels a bit "cheapish", without any particular negatives. Will no doubt order the Diaclone coloured version and relegate this one to alt-mode, with penny-racer style Bii and MP12J on the back. Not bad, but if you're only going to get one Magnus, hit up Takara.

I also got my hands on a Hoist/Trailbreaker upgrade kit





& a WST Blitzwing. I actually thought that JustiToys were out of the WST business until about two weeks ago when I was surfing Ebay & I just stumbled across it.





Reckon I've got enough G1 Blitzwings?

Dude, nice haul there. I gather that upgrade kit is the japenese one? Love the chrome weapons. Plus it finishes off the figures.

What is included in the upgrade kit? They look good.

@ Crankcase: I got the same upgrade set as you did - How come mine came with chrome accessories & yours didn't? & the wings on your Hoist have extra paint apps while mine is just plain orange? What the?

@ Spiderken: It's basically a backpack/wings for Hoist & various accessories/add-ons for both of them

[spiderken17]

Who makes them? Did you guys get the same kit?

The Japanese-colour "Limited Edition" version has chrome accessories and all-orange wings, to match the TT versions. The Hasbro-colour has non-chrome blaster parts, and multi-coloured wings.

X2toys XT003 Upgrade kit.

Here you go The Sword how ever I'm not sure. It looks familiar but I can't pick it. Found it. And you can buy the sword here.

As far as i know they made 2 different sets for them, one was for the Hasbro version which came with non-chromed weapons and the painted wings which i got. And the other one was made for the Tomy/ Takara set which came with the chromed weapons. But i thought it would have had painted wings as well.
