Wow.

This must be really cheap.

Sell it to me for 10$. I'll make something out of it.

Re: Kronos (Daca Toys) Review

All I know is that I'm glad I didn't order. I was tempted, but there were quite a few red flags that became apparent in the TFW thread, imo.

I have no idea why so many "white knights" were virtually worshipping this figure and the designer with little to go on but a pic and Arafat's word that it was going to be amazing, and yet he was apparently not going to make any money on it whatsoever (which in itself isn't a good sign, even though people loved it - obviously that resulted in a lot of corners being cut)... I admit the bot mode is cartoon accurate and all, but sheesh.

Of course, whenever I mentioned these concerns in that thread I got jumped on by the true believers, called a "hater", etc. I mean, I was really considering getting this thing!

Re: Kronos (Daca Toys) Review

Did anyone catch Optibotimus' review? He snaps the foot during the review and gets quite upset.

I just watched it. Damn that was long

Looks like he broke the foot exactly in the same place that Pascal's picture shows. Then he has to glue the head on during the video cause it fell off while he was transforming it earlier

The lighting was way better in this review than Skullface but both bring up the similar concerns with materials quality, design, execution and QC. I'm not a fan of Optibotimus reviews because I feel he sugar coats the issues, but he actually reveals a lot of his concerns about the figure and his thoughts on Arafat quite openly this time. He kinda surprised me. It's a good watch if you have 45 minutes to spare.

But even with these negative reviews there are still so many people loving it. Seems like you either love it or you hate it.

It's funny you mention that, because there was a rumor going around TFcon that Optibotimus was planning on breaking Kronos during his review.

Then it happened... weird!
