Thank-you for sharing your experiences with this figure. I don't mind the darker hue. I hope that the backack on mine doesn't give me as much trouble as yours did!
I'm glad that the KO seems to be done really well! I bought the official a while back, do I'm not in the market for the KO, but it's awesome for those who are!
This KO is done fairly well… as it does have some issues… but I’ve seen worse… I’m not collecting KO’s… just being selective… this is only my 3rd one… I have the official… and I still like that better…
Yeah that backpack is a bugger to transform! Mine came with a whole bag of faction plates for some reason, and the mini Jazz has two right things, so the left leg is on backwards.
Thanks for sharing! I'm deciding but it looks I'll be pulling the trigger on this guy, sooner or later. The small white bit, looks like it's Wheeljack's shoulder cannon, but I might be wrong.
I had to file down in “multiple area….” So it’s hard to describe… but I can say that where I felt “friction…” occurring during manipulation is where I had to file… and… I had to file down a lot… (more than just the paint)…
Which is odd, because the peeps behind the Trailbreaker KO KO'd the "MP-56" slipcover AS the box, and made a copy of the instructions without the "The Transformers Masterpiece" section. And NO changes to the figure except for tighter tolerances? Ouch...
They've made one huge change and that's the included diecasts as the original was all plastic. As for Skyfire, mine arrived today so I wanted to watch a review before opening it up. I'll probably pack my original up and display this simply because of something was to happen, it'll be with the KO version. I did the same for my Fans Toys Soundwave where I'm displaying the KO version and the original is in the package.
Great review! Thanks for the in-depth comparison.
I have the MP-57 and I love it.
Same here…
Definitely a win! Especially at 1/2 the price. Not to mention there's slight improvement. As always great video.
1/2 the price is a win… but I need to pain the eyes a light blue, cause they are too dark, imo…
@@streakshooter918 yes! That's a thing with KO's. Not sure why that happens 🤔.
I wonder too… but it’s an easy fix…

Yeah… the darker hue is not that bad (seen worse)… and I hope you jet pack tolerance is better…
Solid review- very helpful!
Thank you…
Think there is also die cast hip joint on the ko and that’s why it’s able to stand more stable than the official one.
Thanks… I will check it…

That little white piece is the arm cannon for Wheeljack.
Thanks for letting me know… 👍

Awe man… major random QC issues… Hope you can get Jazz fixed…

What about the ratchet joints on the ankle tilts? The problem with the official was the ratchet steps were too wide like the hip joints.
Yes… there is some changes to the ankle ratchets…. Which is an improvement from the original…
Very nice
Thanks
I’ve ordered one and it’s on its way over from china to uk. 😜 can’t wait to
It’s a great figure… I hope you like it…
how did it go?
How did what go???
@@streakshooter918 sorry, that was for the UK guy who ordered it some months ago
I'm having issues with the backpack transformation on mine. You said you filed it down to help it? Where did you file it exactly?
