A very unofficial Titan-sized Predaking

[bumblemusprime]

In case anyone hasn't seen it, there's a KO of the third-party Predacons that has been sized-up to match Devastator. Word is that it is decent quality, too.

Wow. That looks great. But how can it only be $140? Hmmmm.

[bumblemusprime]

Because it's a KO?

Even as a KO the price for it seems low to me. Must be some cheap material or something.

I came here to talk about these + other KOs.

I'm probably going to get this.

Got the KO MP Wheeljack today - it's ******* ace.

Seriously, you literally would not tell the difference.

£20 delivered from ebay. That's 28 ******* bucks. Including shipping from China.

I've got the KO Terminus Hexatron somewhere in transit, which is also supposed to be bang tidy.

If it's ***** I've hardly spent a dime on it.

Going to order KO Prowl and Sideswipe.

And after theem I'll probably nab these preda-*****.

You can see reviews of all of them on youtube btw.

Please tell me you're going to start doing YouTube reviews. "Papa Snarl's Profanity-tastic Toy Reviews" would be my new favorite show.

Incredible the savings you can make when somebody else has already paid all the design and r&d costs.

Plus they're not packaged separately (so costs saved there) and there's stuff like Headstrong and Tantrum having the same face, so there's probably some other corners been cut.

I have this guy.

Initial impressions: I went straight for Predaking size, so this won't be a detailed review.

- Various weird KO-y things: heads on Tantrum & Headstrong are much larger than they should be.
- Plastic is light, similar to Combiner Wars. This could pass easily as a great Hasbro toy.
- He is a bit wobbly. I managed to get him to stand on his own, but for the most part, especially when the sword is involved, you need to brace up his back.
- Speaking of the sword: HUGE. Monstrous. Easily as tall as this figure.
- Headstrong's horn broke in shipping. Ain't really a thing--I just sanded it down and colored in the broken section with a Sharpie--but a reminder of KO quality.

Overall, this is amazing. Feels about of a piece with Combiner Wars quality, except for the wobbly issue.
