Transformers United China Exclusive Ultra Magnus

Transformers United China Exclusive Ultra Magnus
Supposedly a China Exclusive...but it really means that this toy is launched in China first...subsequently, the rest of the countries will follow...we have news that Japan will be launching in Feb 2013, so nothing really to harp about...
Probably the fifth recolor of this mold, there are no signs of mold degradation.
A nice technical toy to play with.


Transformers United packaging.











Abit of scratches on the chrome bumper...and some fingerprints...strange?

Classics Starscream vs KO Classics Starscream

Bought a KO Classics/Universe Deluxe Starscream.

And i have a MOSC original piece. Made comparisons and here are the differences i found.


Original on the left. Rocket launchers are faced in the correct direction. Missiles are facing upwards.

KO on the right, the rocket launchers are installed in the opposite direction and one of the missles is packed in the wrong direction.

Artwork look terrifying similar....


Original at the top. "Each Sold Separately" is printed

KO does not have "Each Sold Separately"


Original at the top. Corners are normal.

KO at the bottom, corners are rounded.

Original on the right. Megatron and Decepticon word has "All rights reserved" logo.


Original at the top. Number imprinted is clear and up to mark.

KO at the bottom, number imprint is crappy.





Original on the right. Groove is available at knee.

KO on the left, no groove.



Original at the top. No number imprint on the right leg.

KO on the bottom, there is a slight number imprint. but not significant.

Transformers Million Publishing Exclusive United Stepper and Riocchet

Transformers Million Publishing Exclusive United Stepper with Riocchet


This is an exclusive which can be ordered with the coupon attached to Million Publishing Magazine: Transformers Generations 2011 Vol. 1


I did not manage to order as i got the magazine too late. Nevertheless, manage to grab 1 piece after it was released and a forum member/friend gave me a heads up on a cheap piece on ebay. Grabbed it. Regret. NO.


Giving the United Jazz a recolor into Stepper. This figure oozes appeal to all....attached with his targetmaster Riocchet, I half expect Stepper to follow his G1 counterpart's footsteps, to be "exclusive" until some china company comes out with the K.O piece.



For Stepper, I posted a video on him too! (Here!)





The flames are actually printed onto the figure and not decals. Initially i thought that they would use stickers.





Riocchet is using the same mold as Reveal The Shield [Battle in Space] Cyclonus's companion Nightstick.


This is clearly one of the better exclusives to acquire. The price might be a bit too steep for a deluxe figure. But after you have it on hand...everything's worth it.

Custom Repaint: Kabaya Classics Optimus Prime (Lazy Version)

Custom repaint of Kabaya Classics Optimus Prime.
Tried giving it a metallic look.
The reason why this is called the "Lazy Version" is because i'm supposed to do the repaint with an airbrush...instead i used myhands...hand brushed it, that is why the uneven coat and color...
Nevertheless, i got the effect which i was looking for....so this is more or less a testformer...

Classics Rodimus

Bought this classics rodimus at a very late stage...months after the Henkei version was released...Fortuantely i bought this almost just before FansProject released the news of Protector.....the attachment for Universe/Henkei Rodimus to become RODIMUS PRIME....
