The Energon Pub

That's right, the generic purple one is now available. Full gallery can be seen here and can be purchased here.

Personally, I'm ordering only one. I don't need a clone army of seekers, I have the sweeps for that.

that's pretty nice. hopefully we'll get the green one as well and any of the other random colours. now I just have to decide if I want to add generic seekers to my list

I wouldn't mind getting ol' purple since he had a PVC counterpart and was in the old DW series. Com on now, KO toys ... make that correctly colored Sunstorm so I can place my order!

Wasn't the purple one the third Rainmaker seeker? I think I will end up ordering one of the purple seekers and a Sunstorm eventually.

No, he was a Generic. The only Generic Seeker to be made into an official figure no less:

Heroes of Cybertron Decepticon Reinforcement on CIT.

i thought that it said you can get three at 80 but i dont see that any where on the site

According to GenZhao the e-hobby colored Sunstorm should have a store page in a couple of days. I'm stoked.

As for the purple seeker, I will be naming him KnockOff (since he is, after all, a clone)....

They got the color almost spot on, since we're getting Thundercracker, I will have all seven legit seekers from both Hasbro and Takara.

I have:
Heneki and Universe Starscream
Classics Skywarp
Classics Ramjet
Generations Thrust
Generations Dirge
Universe Acid Storm

I will get these to make the ultimate G1 Decepticon Army.

And to think, I almost made my order yesterday. Now to decide on making my order now, or waiting for new Sunstorm... And ofcourse the Gold/Chrome seeker

you'll need 3 gold ones, for golden lagoon screamer, 'warp and TC. none were ever coated in that hear resistant alloy though, so you're good without a silver one.

i can save you all the trouble, just send me half the cash you would to them then I can send you a box of broken toys and ignore all your communications for satisfaction. you have been warned

I second that. Their communications is simply atrocious.

whilst I've had no dealings with KO Toys myself, it appears you only get really screwed if you publicly denounce them as having poor service. Or expect some kind of communication. Being based in the UK, I'm quite used to nobody have half a clue as to what I'm getting or when.

You better believe it. He's called people at 2:30 in the morning to fight a PayPal dispute. Woke them and their children.

ive had problems with kotoys myself but ive never had them not return my money or send out my packege i hope i dont run in to some of the problems you guys run in to i really am surprised that

Been planning to buy from them directly, heck but I don't do it blindly......made 5 inquiries concerning a certain G1 "re-issue". never got a response. A simple yes or no would have suffice but.......ZIP! NADA!

I've had no problems with the figures he's sent, the Rainmakers fell apart, but he acknoledged that was a problem with the entire batch and will replace them at some point.

I've heard goot things about the CHMS version of the seekers, so I'm optimistic.

there called kotoys for a reason when people buy knock off items that are not being made directly from hasbro they will not be perfect and to be honest i really am surprised people have as much trouble with ko toys if you want to know how something is go on there forum you have alot of customers on there telling you weather they like it or not the item or not and about a item not being what you orderd dispute it on paypal with a note on it it really has helped me in the past im sorry im not trying to stick up for them but its one of the only sites i know where i have gotten so many reissues at a real decent price for 15 dollers in shipping 15 bucks thats awsome yust stay on top of them while you order and it turns out ok ....btw...order your item in the box much better chance of survival coming from china

I have the CHMS Henkei Thundercracker, I can't tell any difference in the plastic quality between it and my actual Henkei Thundercracker, and the QC on it is far superior (the null rays don't fall out if you breathe on it wrong). Best KO I've ever owned.

I've been told that if you can gt a hold of his girlfriend (she's on of the KOToys email addys listed on their site), you'll fare much better, overall. She handles most of the business when it comes to customers, anyway.

What color what color was Slipstream?

I can second this. My Classics Starscream is loose as a $2 hooker on nickel night,but my CHMS TC is perfect.
