Side-Tracked: Recent Haul of KOs (13)

Today went to have breakfast with my 2 folks and uncle and 2 cousins... Went over to settle some bank matters.. Then went around to shop shop... the photocopy kiosk near NTUC has new KO TFs: TF Animated Activators for normal size and smaller size(?) I think... of mix of classes..., Classics Ramjet (white), Universe Drag Strip, funny coloured Robotmasters, etc... Then went over to market and bought a KO Movie 2007 Bumblebee.... Happy day....

(1) TFA - Ratchet (Activator)
90% similar to the real one, with the horn repaired! For $5, its a good bargain.... Nice packaging too...


(2) TFA - Lockdown (Activator)
Lockdown reminds me of the Star Wars character, hahaha... anyway, this is the combined form of Lockdown normal & bandit modes...


(3) Universe Drag Strip
Wah, heng ah... A few weeks ago I went over to the Toy Carnival @SAM and tempted to buy the real Universe Drag Strip at a special price of $20 but tahan... then saw in the net there is a KO version... wish it would come in S'pore.. and then I saw it this morning.... so now I have saved $12... ok, so this has 2 pieces of hip parts missing... but no worries for me!

BTW, the VCD contains 2 episodes of TFA, but I can only watch in my notebook....


(4) Deluxe Movie 07 Bumblebee
Initially was not thinking of buying this, thought of going back to the photocopy kiosk to buy a Ramjet... but the chest piece and weapon design is too tempting... so decided to get this... did not regret this decision...


Seems nowadays KOs are better built... as in they can more or less transform... of course still got gaps and misfits... but is much better than last time... maybe the moulds are newer, so much better pieces...
