jenius 997 Posted October 1 The KOs? No, I own all the originals so no need for me to buy crappier versions of what I already have Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are up to reviewing them, I can provide my copy for this purpose. I ordered the Milia PF when it was on offer (too good a deal to pass), now I am missing a PF max. I am tempted by the KO max. No one know if we will get as good a deal on Max as with Milia. Since Max is more popular, I am not keeping my hope high, so the KO version is super tempting. Since the handling of the KO version is worst, I could keep my non PF Arcadia version for messing around with but the KO PF version for just display. -kk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kkx 38 Posted October 1 I am not at all good at providing review. Just my personal take on this: - Looks is good. The PF level tampo printing is as good as the original (have not use a magnifying glass to compare, but good at viewing distance). - The knee joint is not as firm as the original - The landing gear cover on the legs seems to be slightly less tidy. Not as seamless as the original. I hardly use the landing gear and I fiddle with the cover to get it to look good and leave it at that. So not a deal breaker for me. - The head for the 1S is a bit different, but not enough to cause any visual problem for me, I have not seen their rendering of the 1J head since I have have the 1S Overall, for the price of under $130 shipped, I call it good value. If you just display it, I think I will not care too much. But if you like to handle/transform it often, then the joints will bug you a bit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DewPoint 56 Posted October 2 It only makes sense if you are saving on the shipping cost. For me that would be about $40 American. I'm waiting for the VF-1S to go on sale. I want it for a cubical toy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slave IV 579 Posted October 2 Yeah, I’m not convinced enough to pay that price for any of them yet. If there was a more unique deco like low-vis PF, I’d try it out but still prefer under $100 for a SS Equipped VF-1. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
