A Hercules wielding dual crane booms? A sure sign of the highest quality engineering and value for money.

Yeah, no.

Thats more like it. I would buy an orange G2 one of these providing the rage kit fits it.

Well, enjoy your toxic, barely functional, ridiculously fragile pathetic imitation toy then.

Well that looks like garbage. I'm not a great fan of 3rd party stuff but this is starting to get a bit ridiculous now.

Looks like garbage. The dual cranes are ridiculous and will make placing this anywhere troublesome. I can tell that mixing drum is just one piece and there's hollow parts on Hook you can clearly see. Herc's already pretty simple, I shudder to think of how they simplified him even more.

even for a reduced cost KO (im assuming), this is bad timing. what with the rumored CW titan class devastator on the way.

Am I right in thinking that its, 120 Yen for the full set? That works out at $1! who cares if its a PoS for that price.

It's the Chinese Yuan, but that means it works out to $20 before shipping. And shipping "overseas" is an additional 120 Yuan, so about $40 for the entire thing. :shock:

For $40 for the entire thing including shipping, I'd seriously consider buying one.

to anyone who may care, going through a middle man company like yoybuy will result in this thing costing about 70, 20 for the toy and 50 for it shipped.

by **LE0KING** » Wed Jan 28, 2015 2:04 am

I Have it on the way, when it gets in I'll do a quick review.

Wow, the middle man is taking a hefty profit if that's the case. Still cheaper than buying the TFC version, but I've already been down that route. I hope this works out for you.

Love to read your review on this. To see the scale, plastic quality, articulation and other things.

Hoping this shows up on ebay in over abundance.

Yeah, unfortunately they don't tell you the shipping until you've payed for the item and they receive it. I was expecting about $20 and couldn't believe it when they said $50.

They can be found on ebay already just look up "KO TFC"
