i wish Bandai will get a chance to do the KOB they will do a great job with it, i really want to see how they are going to hide the legs of the lions (if they do it anime accurate) its really bothering me to see the lions legs in the Robot mode its give him a weird look some times i want to rip the lions legs off on my Toynami ones it will be more awesome if it have GaoGaiGar syndrome SRC first then SOC

Honestly, the king is good enough for me to be my definitive Voltron. No doubt Bandai could give us a great looking figure but, I'm not going to be dropping $$$ again for the same character when there's already a great version of him.

Speaking of dropping money on the same character... Amazon has the Toynami 30th Anniversary Voltron (with the awesome base) for $190 shipped. I had to get one at that price. I want that base, and I guess I can get rid of one of my 20th Anniversary Voltrons and replace it with the LED eyes 30th Anniversary version. What can I say... }D

Base is awesome, you'll have to modify it to hold the shield. Im gonna get around to that eventually

So I finally had the chance to check my King, and I am pleased to find out that aside of some minor paint imperfections, it is perfect.
No issues at all. Only for a noticeable chip on the Black Lion's butt. Not noticeable in robot form. But in lion form, it is noticeable if the other lions sniff its butt.
Also the black lions back leg ratchets are a pain to turn, but not as bad as chachi's sample.

Go to Asian store Toyercity.com and email them from there. They'll help you. }D

Japtou.com seems to have it in stock at a great price but there are several scam alerts online for that site *sight*

If the seller doesn't accept Paypal as form of payment, it is a SCAM site! Just stick to the ones recommended here and you'll be fine. }D

Wow! I used a "secret" email to contact a "certain" person and he pointed me at an "anonymous" online store for a "discreet" purchase. Feels like a secret spy thing. very exciting. Now lets see if it follows thru!

I don't know what the secrecy is at this point. I'm almost sure W E P and C l a s s i c M e d i a have zero power in asia. The figure has been released in Asia, and anyone can purchase online from Asian stores. What's the deal then? }|

I was specifically asked by a vendor IN ASIA not to post his info on public forums because he might be tracked by WEP.

Post by TheMazingerZ on Dec 14, 2014 22:17:38 GMT -5
And what can WEP do to them? Look at how many Asian vendors have been selling the MP Vehicle Voltron. Same should apply for this one, right?

Though I don't think our little community had anything to do with WEP finding out about the king we should respect the vendors wishes. If someone needs help we help them by PM and talking about figure himself to help people make up there minds if they want him or not.

I dont know, if he didnt have anything to worry about then his listing would still be up just like VV but for some reason took the KOB listing down and he still has stock. Hey HLJ shouldnt be affected by the recent retailer hounding by the company the owns Marlboro regarding MP-23 yet HLJ took the PO down and they are in Japan. Again im just going by what the guy told me.

Has anyone gotten a reply from Tony / Mad Toys? Are they actively dealing with the QC issues?

Ive sent him two emails unrelated to QC issues and never got a response.

Communication with him has been pretty good so far on my end minus the last email I sent him about my red kitty cat. Hopefully those of us who need replacements will be taken care of in a timely manner.
