    I saw this on my online shopping app, what's more crazy is that it's only 12$ here in my country for this, it's literally a steal! Now I saw your review, I'm going to buy it! Thank you dude! Keep it up!

    I got the official one, but BMB does looks better overall. I'm also looking forward to Baiwei's Ss102 too.

    Great review! You made me buy it and I'm so grateful!
    For someone who need another review to compare with his copy
    I got this one 2 days ago, and it's so much better than I thought it would be. The plastic quality is good, it's not gonna break unless you're not careful or you want it to break. It's better in every way than the SS38 (I have the aoyi SS38KO and I hate it bc of the plastic, quality control and design), except for the alt mode and the shoulder joint of course. The joints are very stiff and I think I like this type of stiff joints because there are no loose spots, but you need to be careful because there are some very stiff spots that can lead to hand pain such as the wrist transformation and the tabs in the leg.
    It's totally worth it. Go buy it right now!

    Adding another comment to mention that I just got this today, only they reverted to thr flat gray of the Hasbro versions without any silver paint even though the box kept the original OP-01 look 😐

    Which joints are the tightest? What did you do to loosen the stiff joints?

    • @collegetfreviewer
      @collegetfreviewer  Před 8 měsíci +3

      The knees, thigh swivel, and shoulder transformation rotation joint. They are all peg joints so just keep transforming and playing with the figure to loosen them--that's my strategy!

      Thanks for watching! The joints get better with play, definitely recommend this figure, though if you want the best version of this mold, I would recommend waiting for the BaiWei release (which I will also review). The BaiWei version should have a cleaner bed profile in truck mode and be compatible with BaiWei's jetwing trailer.

      @@collegetfreviewer yeah I have the baiwei white optimus prime ko ss32/44 which has the joins very very strong, I do recommend to you, it will be nice for your collection, unfortunately I don't have anymore the ko of ss38 bc when I was trying to fixing the feet became broken, but I only have his ion blaster which has kinda have metallic plastic , I know there is another ko of ss 102 with the clean bed but it is not for me, but I'll wait your review, also baiwei will do the ko from ss rotf Megatron if I not wrong, for the white prime I do recommend you to buy the "no box" option bc has more strong joint, from what I know with the box has loose joints.

      @@transformandgobricks7820 Weight wise yes, however the transformation requires quite a bit of force due to the stiff joints and poor tolerances in a few places. I would only recommend this figure if you cannot track down the original SS-102 or if you are not getting the Bai Wei release.

    • @collegetfreviewer
      @collegetfreviewer  Před 5 měsíci

      That is a very broad generalization, and though the plastic quality and joints may not always be as good does not make it a bad toy. And all toys are basically made in China, with many KOs coming from the same factories as official toys.
