    Forgot to add that I got a KO MP-10 BAPE red last month. QC isn't quite as nice as my green version although it does have the correct shoulders (ie: no sculpted Autobot logo as the Bathing Ape exclusives are based off the MP-10B Black Convoy mold).

    Here he is with fellow KO MP-10s.

    Talking

    I thought I'd share this.. not sure if this is the correct place but he looks too awesome not to post it...

    Just got him today!

    I like to think "its pointless thinking about how much it costs if you really want it"....

    This one is likely one of those bad luck scenario but the ratchet spring in the right elbow was too strong, as a result on a recent bending of the arm the inner plastic holding the ratchet in place bend and nearly snapped...

    End up fixing by replacing with a weaker spring so it still holds & ratchet well and doesn't stress out the plastic too much.

    Despite some hiccups overall this is still a great combiner, just need to be aware of the gotchas...

    Just reprolabels it's a lousy 5 week wait for shipping but well worth it.
    Quality of the decals are top notch too

    They all certainly look cool.


    How do you find the X-transbot new minibots? I've been tempted by them, but my experience with Xtransbots past toys has been decidedly lacking, with fragile toys that aren't much fun to transform.

    I was a bit skeptical because Apollyon while he looks nice I refuse to transform him.

    Arkose was less than pleasing to transform due to hinge on the engine being glued stuck and some parts flexing on the legs.

    Boost and hatch were pretty enjoyable and once you work out the engineering on the arm it's quite easy. The only bit I found hard was getting the underside of the bonnet over boost's head. Oh and the plastic feels like it's going to snap in a few places but it doesn't, not even a stress mark so they are using a good strong plastic.

    mixed feelings if I had to be honest a few cringing moments too many for my likings but they look great with my masterpiece collection and that's all that matters to me
