I'm actually willing to bet that the KO toy face is the same and the 36+. It and the new chest are freakishly similar. These new pics are higher res and such, but are still too small to make out the finer details. On the 36+ face, there's a lot more black added which makes it difficult to confirm. Here's a better pics of the KO though.william-james88 wrote:They look different to me. It means Takara didnt copy anything. And it makessense taht they are similar since both the KO and Takara are pooling from the same source, being the G1 toy.shajaki wrote:So....

My thoughts as well. Highly unlikely that TT is thieving KO pieces.Sabrblade wrote:I could imagine someone from the KO company getting their hands on (leaked/stolen) preliminary design work for MP-36+ and getting them released in KO form ahead of the official Takara version.

My impression of the generic flying bases with the claw arm is that they are typically too weak for something as heavy as MP-36.
Will keep watch for the AmiAmi set, it seems like it would work if the scale is right.
