    Man… I WANT to love this figure. It LOOKS so friggin cool. I’m a sucker for movie bots and their weird designs. Kup especially. And I’m kinda in awe of the complexity. But this also looks like a case study in the theory that it’s more impressive to make something simple instead of making something complex.

    I'm so glad I went with the FT version of this character, I'm almost sure I would've thrown this figure against a wall. This is an absolute disaster build and engineering wise, it made me cancel all my X-Transbots preorders and I wont buy another one of their figures at least not until I watch a review first. Almost every bad MP TF action figure is good when compared to this one, this should have been a plain old action figure without the ability to transform, maybe then it would've been an OK figure.
    Thanks for the review Mr. Skullface.
    P.S. I want to add that I normally love the look on the XTB TF action figures but I'm afraid to touch them at this point.

The Community DEFINITELY needs XTB to pick up their game & stay in the Fight. They have some GREAT Ideas, Awesome Characters & willing to take a chance, it's their QC that will be their Death Knell. I have HOPE for them, but I am also a sucker..... Fool me once... Shame on you....... Fool me twice.........

    My relationship with XTB/KFC is akin to that of an abused spouse.
    I get a Transistor and its all candy & flowers but then I get a black eye with Apollyon who falls apart if you look at him funny.
    Then I hear around town that my ex is getting better, really improving themselves! Against my better judgement, I give them another chance.
    Klaatu is great, brings back all those first date memories and I'm swooning! Then....BAM! Eat a Boost and an Ollie! Now I'm wearing oversized sunglasses for a couple more weeks.
    They've lost my trust at this point and as someone who likes to pre-order and prefers a secure order over the best price, Keith will never get another pre-order from me. They have moments of brilliance but taken as whole, they're in the red.

    I guess I'm an apologist since I know it was made under contract from XTB, meaning another firm designed and built these. Yes, XTB had to OK everything but it is simple enough for the company to show good product while they are actually sending out crap. this is the same company that were sending out Dead End's that they had built without XTB's approval. It's a big frigging mess, XTB screwed up, but they weren't the only ones in this clusterfuck.

    I’m afraid the quality of the figure is actually secondary to how XTB handled the situation. They blamed someone else, said they were going to fix the broken ones, and make sure the rest were right before release. To my knowledge, neither has happened. It’s almost like their like they’re trying to hold him back until they release a couple of popular figures in hopes that those who bought this guy would move on and forget. Whatever the case, certainly a shitty move on their part that won’t be soon forgotten.
