    I'll never understand why the humans Takara makes for their MP line are so crappy when the ones for their Diaclone line are really good.
    I have the official but due to my worry that it may not survive many transformations so I have the second KO version on pre-order. Love the mold, just don't trust the material on the official.
    Thanks for the review.

      @bobbobson5468 3 года назад +2

      Probably to do with cost cutting. They included it to inflate the price but they know that most people don't care too much about having the human characters anyways so they just half assed it.

    • @shawnmartens9711
      @shawnmartens9711 3 года назад +2

      Although, the price seemed pretty inflated already. Especially with the cheaper plastic and paint.

    The "better built" version comes in a brown box from my understanding. So this is the straight ko. I bought the official and I've pre-ordered the "better built" version. I love Hound in both modes; definitely one of my favorite character designs.

    The fact that you are scared to transform a figure like playing Russian Rollette hoping to survive a transformation without breakage only shows there is something wrong. It's a transformer not just an adult collectible. It suppose to be transformed back and forth with enjoyment.

      Indeed. It feels like Takara is charging more for figures made of the cheapest, most brittle plastic they can possibly find. I can understand needing to be a little careful, but we shouldn't have to dread messing with the damn thing.
      And if it's risky just transforming it, what's to say it won't break when trying to pose it?

    • @DragoonMS
      @DragoonMS 3 года назад +2

      That's also a fault of their engineering design decisions. Overcomplicated transformations plus weak plastic is NOT a good thing...but they clearly either learned nothing from MP36, or they simply don't care.

    Fyi, you forgot to fold in the Jerry Can into his foot.
    I was hoping that the major change in the KO would be better, thicker plastic. Disappointed that you think it's even thinner, which is really worrying! One of the doors on my official mp47 snapped in the middle (not on a hinge), but thankfully was replaced (after waiting 6 months due to Covid hitting just after I sent it back). Wonder what improvements the reissue will have?

    • @DetectiveBarricade
      @DetectiveBarricade 3 года назад +1

      My guess? None whatsoever. Everything just as prone to cracking and breaking as on the first run. EmGo practically sold me on MP Hound, but wow is that plastic quality awful. Especially when compared to the other "jeep" I received shortly after, OX Fraudo, which I can flip between modes without worrying it'll break. (whereas Hound has a nasty crack in the part that holds his head and cannon assembly and one of the calf panels snapped at the hinge)

    • @Baliken100
      @Baliken100 2 года назад

      Wait a second, you can send it back?
      My MP47 cracked right where the seats fold into his back, the rounder part you can see going in. I have no idea why or how, noticed one was completely cracked and then the other one had a half a crack going through at the same place lol 🤷.
      I treat my MPs like platinum, I don't ever transform them without watching the step-by-step video! That's how crazy careful I am, and it's still broke 🤔

      Think the official would break more while being disassembled for repairs, I sold my broken official to a friend cheap and bought the KO (which shipped yesterday) I'm glad he is my last Autobot with both prices and complexity increasing I have lost faith in this line.

    You're good at what you do and if that's the best it could be transformed or the best the hood could go on? no way.

      No, the KO version is not durable too. Mine got broke on the right window, even it was glued by company/seller (look like i got scammed). Right now, the broken parts become parts forming.
      But hey, both of them are fragile. Buying KO is not bad idea, why we purchase original if it easily to break

    Wouldn't it be more accurate to call these unauthorized copies rather than knock offs? I usually think of knock offs as those toys which are usually close enough to trick the untrained but far enough to avoid law suits. Am I missing something or this is just for ease of conversation?
    This looks pretty nice anyway, specially compared to the original one which was an absolute brick! 😅
