Black Mamba HMK-09F Studio Series SS-102 Optimus Prime Oversized Version
BeerMike: It is funny to see this figure in this scale come up on the same day that Hasbro announced a release of their MP scale figure for this same character. Unfortunately, the official version is simply a reissue of the Bee movie MP figure with some very minor upgrades to make him look like ROTB Prime. I would much rather save my money, avoid the "cat ears" and get a large version of the SS Prime from the ROTB movie. Will very likely pull the trigger on this one once I figure out where to display him.
ssjgoku22: The reissue of MPM-12 Prime is a straight re-release. It has no difference from the first release. It's still Bumblebee movie Prime.
Beast Model G-01 Big Beast God
ssjgoku22: Huh, so this is confusing. I preordered ZL-01, which is releasing the same time as this. On YouTube, reviews have been done for ZL-01, indicating that it's a good figure. I have no idea what Beast Model G-01 is. Definitely going to needs some clarification on this.
4th Party Commander MG-09 Super Ginrai OP w/ Trailer
Carlanga: The 3rd KO version of Ginrai, but this one comes complete, apparently, and at an astonishing great price, very impressed, but will need to see a honest review before dropping an order, the other 2 kos are just the cab at around $50, meaning they will be a bit more expensive and makes me wonder if it's because they are of higher quality than this one, or perhaps they are exactly the same.

[Pre-Order] APC Toys Mirror Evil Optimus Prime Modified Version
ssjgoku22: Looks great in the Shattered Glass colors. Have the Optimus and Nemesis versions and they're excellent figures.
4th Party GP-15 Beast Wars Rattrap
ssjgoku22: Definitely excited for this. I skipped the official because of the price, so here's to this ko for hopefully being fairly inexpensive and good quality.
FansToys FT-16M Sovereign Galvatron Limited Color Edition
ssjgoku22: By far, my favorite Fanstoys figures, period. The paint, the sculpt, the build quality, and the presence are unmatched by pretty much any Transformers figure. I bought it for a cheaper price, but even at its current price, Sovereign is worth it. A must buy.
Deformation Space DS-01 Crimson Wings Starscream
ssjgoku22: Glad I canceled my MP-52 preorder. This looks amazing and is probably going to be 1/3rd the cost of MP-52.
ssjgoku22: @Riskozero If Black Mamba or a company like them is making this, then it's probably going to cost no more than $150. I didn't mean exactly 1/3rd, sheesh.
BW H6002 Optimus Prime
ssjgoku22: A really well-made figure. I know that it's based on Studio Series 05 Prime, but the added paint really makes it look much better. The taller smokestacks also look a lot better. Overall an excellent figure for a decent price. You should also get the weapons kit add-on for this as well
4th Party Masterpiece MP-52 Starscream Version 2.0 w/o Extra LED Headsculpt
ssjgoku22: Definitely knew this was coming. Slightly on the more expensive for a ko, but still better then paying double for the official. The LED head sounds like a cool feature to have. I might get this, even though I ordered DS-01 already.
ssjgoku22: @JuliosK8 I'm not quite sure this is Black Mamba. If it's a straight ko, it's quite hard to tell who made it (none of the MP-44 Prime KO's are associated with any brands, they just came in plain brown boxes). Agree with you about DS-01, that is the superior figure.
CDL CDL-03 CAT Arcee Catwoman Version
ssjgoku22: Looks really good in terms of sculpt and paint. Don't know how to feel about the almost skin tone look though, lol. Might pass on this one.
