Check out his photo shoot below, just don't scratch his paint job! Speaking of paint if you want those show accurate yellow rims you better head to local hobby shop.

Yeah... I'm just gonna wait for the Takara release, OK?

^ Judging by the Takara releases for this line so far, it will have even less paint, with some stickers and highly unsightly minicon ports all over it. :S

I was about to tell him the same thing, but you beat me to it. If it weren't for those silver paint apps on his flanks, I'd try my hand at repainting him myself.

... Goddammit. I suppose I'll just have to wait for someone to sell a modified version on eBay. :-x

Was it really necessary to quote the entire post just for that on sentence? /:)

Love the character, dislike the toy. I'll wait and see how the smaller ones turn out. Otherwise... extra Tin Toy money for me!

Takara, please please PLEASE save us from your cheap...err...*child focused* oversees licensee.

They're killing us collectors.

I don't care if Takara does do stickers, as long as they look good, I'm OK with it, otherwise it's yet another figure I'll have to paint, otherwise it will bug the crap out of me (looking at you Beast Wars Scorponok

).

I was really excited to hear Knockout was getting a figure.
Remember how hollow FE Cliffjumper looked? I'm getting the same vibe from this and Knockout doesn't have any back panelling either.
And that 2 tone paintjob? Are the purple panels meant to look like they've been scratched up?
I'll have to see this figure firsthand before I decide I will get him.
