Every time you buy from Krazy Owner toys, a puppy dies.

I own 4 of them (Black Chrome, ThunderCracker, Skywarp and Orange Sunstorm)

Here's how the regular ones feel:
Plastic: very good.
Paint Apps: very sloppy.
Overall fit: decent.
Joints: Good (loose left wrist on all of them)
Overall score: 6.8 out of 10.

As for the Chromed one:
Plastic: Somewhat brittle.
Chrome finish: Horribly scuffed all around, I got mine sealed in package.
Overall fit: decent.
Joints: extremely tight (feels like you're gonna break it just by posing it)
Overall score: 6 out of 10.

I ended up buying a legit Henkei Thundercracker and even with all it's issues (falling missile launchers, slightly loose right wing) I still find it way better than the CHMS counterpart.
I'm now looking for a legit Henkei Skywarp.

Aye on the sloppy paint aps. Overspray like crazy.The quality improves it seems with each run, I have a skywarp and a deathstar starscream and they are nice but they do have flaws..
