Thank you man but let me get it right because im not 100% sure you got what i mean my friend i know the section next to the head (the chest & the stomach section) rotate but what i mean is the mid section (elbow) rotate as well ? it looks like it is molded there and i didnt see any post for KOB holding the the Blazing sword with two hands yet if you see Toynami version the elbow rotate 360ْ easily so i was wondering before i do any force in the wrong place I dont think that part rotates. At least not on my KOB. oh good thing that i didnt rotate it after reading your post lol well after some time handling with the figure i noticed two thing im not sure is it just mine or most of us so 1- the red lion WONT rotate easily i must do it with extra force and every time i do so i feel it might break, i tried to wake up the joints like i did with the other lions but its not working, i have this problem also with the yellow lion head (it CANT rotate i mean the side to side motion) 2- the black lion left leg is more like Chachi unit the click is like something in the way its also harder to move than the right leg not a deal breaker for me but is that normal ?

The red lion on mine is EXACTLY the same,it does NOT get better,BUT at least its turnable,as long as you can turn it,who cares how tight it is as long as it doesnt break,as I said HOLD firmly the two grey halves of elbow joint on red lion WHILE turning red waist to protect that part against breaking,the stess is on that elbow when turning.

I just got my KOB. I am in awe with this thing. One of my best looking bots so far. Fits right in with the Fewture stuff. The only qc issue I see so far is a missing yellow lion. Makes it a bit hard to stand in robot mode. Otherwise superb toy!

Just messing with you guys! An entire missing lion would no doubt be the mother of all quality control issues! LOL!
Mine seems fine so far. Normal qc issues as described before. Red lion waist issue... paint scrapping on black lions legs when combining, etc. Nothing new or outside from what everyone else is experiencing.
Even with the qc issues, this is one fantastic addition to my collection. Money well spent if I say so.
I'm going to make a display base to store all the accesories at some point this year. Maybe a key shaped base to stand him on as well

Well here's pics of mine. Had it for a bit but waited before I posted. No issues except maybe the same minor paint imperfections everybody has.

So what happened here? I don't know how this came out of nowhere but i just discovered it today. I don't see how something this big and awesome could not have had a years worth of hype build-up behind it. This is like the Bandai SOC Golion we've all been dreaming of.
But it seems every website that sold this product is now shut down. What happened? Is this a 3rd party or do they have some asian license ala MP?

Get it from buddy who sells toys in Hong Kong. I just got a shipping notice from them yesterday. One of the Japanese reviewer on youtube also recommended that site.
