Wait... Wierdwolf?! I totally missed that! Could you please post a link?

I'm pretty sure he means the G1 KO that was announced by KOtoys a few months ago and not a 3rd party figure.

No, KO = Knock Off, synonym for bootleg.
As in a (mostly inferior and cheap) copy or imitation of an existing product.

3rd Party (actually wrong usage of that term) or custom toy/product is an original designed product that is not a direct copy of an existing product.

Therefore not the same thing.

No, we don't have too, because I just told him the truth and settled it.
It's over.

That said, I do hope the weapon gets changed slightly at least colour wise. Them being sold in sets of two would be neat too.
Anyone have an idea what size it is? Kinda looks deluxe to me. I hope they don'T spam it full of unnecessary weapons to inflate the price though.

LMBO... You using made terminology.. Thats so cute..
KO Knock Off, Meaning a version which is similar but not original
3rd Party, A company that makes Knock offs..

lol..

Yea, well I did try to be nice.
But you directly ignored and went against the word of a mod so I'm issuing a warning.
You will also be notified via pm.

now back on topic.

Look here lil boy, just because I don't agree with you, doesnt mean you can threaten me with a warning. I dont care about your warnings. lol I dont agree with your definition, so get over it. What I do care about is not having to deal with people like you for just one day. How many jerks that think they know everything are on this website?? Seriously..
Now buzz off, it was my thread you started butting in on, remember?

1. This is Mkal's thread and not yourse
2. I said let it go you continue
3. I've never had a discussion with you before
4. You've just insulted me
5. I'm a mod on this site and therefore have to moderate

And most importantly, this is your 3rd warning, you will again be notified via pm and you will also take a 3 day vacation from this site. Enjoy.

So is it normal for this site to just be completely filled with assholes? And if you dont agree with them after they rudely interupted your conversation for you to get a warning. lol..
Because Im sharing this info with my friend Sean at Savcon and everywhere else.. Because so far Ive met a few kool cats but Ive met alot of jerks also.
So lets get some rules down..
#1 If its an A B conversation, stay out of it unless you have something pos to say.

#2 Im here to enjoy myself, if your not, do not reply to anything I post.

Understood?

Thank you..

Before you go ANY further to hang yourself read the board rules

general-rules-for-seibertron-com-s-forums-t14626.php

And look over these as well
information-about-trolling-flaming-and-not-respecting-the-opinions-of-others-t16227.php


First, this is a PUBLIC forum board which means that you post something and it is FAIR GAME for everyone.

Second, If you don't agree with someone then PM mod or myself and we will ask them to stop and respect whomever it is they are offending.

Third, You were warned because of your attitude and the way you handled it. When you are warned you do not message a moderator like you did.

I will give you time to reply before I take any action.

Damn, these boards have gotten agro recently... people need to smoke more

I don't really like the blue plastic, as it makes it look obviously plastic. It would awesome if it was shiney chrome, as I think that would even help the xmas tree mace tail.

I do agree with buddy, whoever said, that it would have been nicer if it were fatter... But that alt mode is just AWESOME. I just realized that Sharkticons sort of look like huge Scraplets. Maybe the Quintessons made those too.

I'd buy 3-4 of them. My G2-Sharkticon leader needs some troops, and this looks about right for him.

I do like the girth as is.

Giggity

EDIT: Damn customer I had made me post this late and now it's not funny anymore because some one beat me to it. *poutpout sulk*

If they keep the prices low on this, I might break my rule about not buying Igear.

Rated X wrote:Looks great. I want 3 to replace my Botcon sharkticons.

When that happens would you sell me one of your Botcon Sharkticons? I really wanted one but my Botcon hookup at the time fell through and I haven't been able to find one for a decent price since.

Im gonna keep them so Skybyte will get his army back. But I got a friend who has a set and might let them go if he gets the I-Gear versions. Thats not a promise, but he might. Honestly the Botcon versions will probally be all over e-bay at bargin prices when these guys come out.

This bot alt mode is good how ever this bots robot mode is not good imho. It looks to much like Animated Grimlock with sharkticon parts on him. It does not capture anything of the original Sharkticon robot mode that was in the 1986 movie the series or toy. Alt mode is good but this bot just does not feel right in robot mode and if the robot mode does not feel right then the toy in total does not feel right.

I don't know man......it's pretty sweet but there seems to be something not making me gaga for it.
Maybe it's the legs in bot mode or the preportions in shark mode that need touching up

I'm not quite sure. Really cool nevertheless though.

Hope we don't have to wait for 2 years for it or anything.
