He's basically turned the shop into a system by which people from outside China can connect to someone inside China to pick up specific toys for them for a set price, or at least that is my understanding of the new setup.

Didn't he offer that service already at the site?

I believe so. With "SirToys" himself moving out of China, though, I believe this is now the only service that is available on the site. I think (and this is all just my completely non-expert and non-involved understanding of the situation from what I've read on his page and discussion on TFW) he'll probably still be collecting / cataloging interesting KO's for the Action Figure Checklist portion of the site.

For those of us that couldn't afford either the official Lego nor the Robosen Optimus Prime figures...

I strongly urge all true gamers, mobile phone aficionados and god-tier Transformers fans to install and play this KO TF game immediately.


It is the best of the games.

Click here for free shipping :)

Thanks for this info. I had never heard of this company but then again, I don't usually bother with generic Chinese websites like Baidu, etc as I don't trust them. I usually don't bother with private sellers at Amazon either.

Here's a little slice of KO nostalgia.

Omegatron.png


The original "Omega Supreme" mold was sold in other countries, including its native home of Japan as a black, grey and red version. The British release was called "Omegatron" (possibly a rip-off/pastiche of "Omega Supreme" and "Megatron") and was sold as a "bad guy":

The British advert was so cheap, but the Japanese one is great.


A KO of this figure featured as a "robotic messenger" in the KO/B-movie, "Ninja Terminator":

-

The opening of the film and the trailer even features ripped-off Star Wars music:

-

Here's the full film. It's almost as bad as "Samurai Cop":

-

-

And for those of us that would like to own Omegatron, two companies are selling 3P versions of him (for between 80 and 170 dollars, depending on the version).

In other news, a (so bad it's good?) 3P/KO Optimus Primal is coming out.

It's around 30 dollars. Mangmotion even showed every it could look like if we replace the fugly "Grimlock" head with a PE Primal Prime head:

An OSKO, recoloured version of a 3P, TLK Bumblebee figure is out. The original was the same size as regular official figures, but this version is about MP sized? It retails for around 30 dollars.
