Hulkie!!! KO Hulkie!!!! What a cute little Devastator... Though it is still not my smallest Devastator... This is the KO version, which I paid for about SGD 45.20... A bit expensive, but when compare to the legit DX9 version, this is considered cheap...
Super hilarious bio!!!! Hahahahahaha...
Here's KO Hulkie de-tombed... looks nice... I am prepared to tighten up the loose joints at the legs and shoulders... with my trusty superglue, hahahaha... Done!!!!
Hulkie !!!!!! Hahahaha.... He is so cute, even at this relatively large size (only slightly smaller than G1 version)...
And these are all my Devastators... 1 big happy family... hahahaha...
Here's the transformation for individual bots...
And final combination to become... Hulkie!!!!! Hahahaha...
Gotten this a few days ago... As usual (for a KO), many parts has to be trimmed and joints tightened... Cost about SGD39.05... But is a very very nice G1 Megatron representation...
Megatron de-tombed... Comes with 2 purple sword and a mace, which my Megatron cannot hold now with his new replaced hands... Also comes with a new translucent eye piece which I since changed, and a new silver barrel tip which will make Megatron look more like the G1 cartoon version in robot mode...
Yes, my Megatron comes with 2 right hands... sigh... luckily found my old Jinbao Leo Dux hands stuck deep in a spare parts box, and decided to use them...
Fists are cut off and sanded down...
Pins of the original hands are attached to the Jinbao Leo Dux hands using superglue...
The top and bottom of the new fists need to be trimmed to fit them into the cavity...
Since the new hands go into the cavity completely, the gun mode is not affected at all. Also loosen his left shoulder screw to allow the arm to rotate... All other joints are trimmed or tightened to a acceptable level..
I felt this is a better sized gun to hold in hand, compared to Apollyon... Not to mention it is so much easier to transform...
Comparison with X-Transbots Apollyon...
And comparison with G1 Megatron, cos he's precious.... G1-Megatron-precious...
Wanted to share with fellow KO kollectors on these following points for this KO Oversized Warbotron Rex, which some reviews of this figure may have accidentally missed out :
(1) Crown can fit onto robot head snugly by tabbing in the small peg to the screw hole (back of head) first.
(2) Dino knee-thigh pieces should be extended ( and thus likely the robot elbows retracted in ), if according to the box front artwork and/or the G1 toy.
(3) Chromed tail pieces can slide up to lock in place in dino mode.
Personally I like this figure very much as a nice representative of the Grimlock character.
Was fiddling with Titans Return Chromedome, and felt that the official guns placement in vehicle mode looks super silly and awkward. Hence decide to try to see if can fit in a gun better in the vehicle mode... There seemed to be a space at the robot thighs, and some trimming of the gun may be what is needed...
And gun can be stored...
Looks good...
... and only a little bit pops out from the back, so still acceptable.... So now Chromedome is left with only 1 gun, hahahaha... gain some, lose some... hahahaha....
