Yo niggas black friday is almost on us. If you see some good deals drop that shit here.
>>6031780If you're still shopping around for it Captured Prey will have Pandinus for $325 at midnight. Might be worth checking the usual places to see if anyone else has it lower.
>>6036279>>6036426It's mostly trademark law that third parties need to duck and cover for. That's mostly why they don't go the full 9 yards and use official names and faction symbols. Instead you get goofy names with raised sculpting or cut outs suspiciously the same size as faction stickers. In China its hard to to prove copyright and likeness with a figure with original tooling. As far as the law is concerned it's just another blue and white robot that transforms into a truck called City Commander, not Ultra Magnus.
Hasbro and Takara do go after KO companies, but usually they threaten retailers with not selling them official stock if they also sell KOs of their products. Interestingly enough, third party manufacturers will pull product from retailers if they start selling KOs of their work, like how MMC, FP, and Maketoys pulled out of Robot Kingdom as the guy who owns that also sells and owns companies that make KOs of their work.
>>6036295There is another Asian toy show on the 26th so maybe you'll get some news there. They have an exclusive Nightbird remold of their arcee mold being sold there. They've already got a lot in the oven though.
