unless they are under 15$ (not likely) then what the hell is the point?

It's probably cheaper that the exclusive one?

Should have seen this coming.

I'd rather have these than the exclusives, which I already preorderd from RK.

Oh well.

Unless their price and quality makes this superfluous I don't see much point..... yet

The Good Doctor's kit is metal, the official ones are plastic, so there's no chrome paint issues to worry about.

Judging from his other stuff I'd guess the price will also be about $20, maybe less.
That around what his swords & Prime rifle were, so that's my guess.

So metal?

Last thing I want on plastic elbow joints is heavy metal.
So many other things could be made, this seems... Unnecessary.

:-?
I see where your coming from. The Dr. Wu Optimus Prime blaster I picked up is some heavy metal which weighs down my Classics Op arm, just cant pose with it that well due to the weight! Could be 'cos its a KO too but hey...

I havent seen any photos of these piledrivers yet but I would assume they will be solid rather than hollow like the MP-12 ones?
This would make more sense and look a hell of a lot better. Posing MP-12 means unplugging the plastic PDs and turning them to hide their empty insides! ;)

Interesting! :D

Why is everybody so hell bent on re-creating the stupid chisel scene ? I find some of these add ons to re-enact a 5 second cartoon clip to be almost pointless. Just like the waiter outfit for Grimlock.

Oh good. Red can use that to split his cranium open.
