KO HENKEI KRYSTAL KONVOY LE-06 REVIEW

Here is a pictorial review of KOLD HENKEI KRYSTAL KONVOY LE-06.

Comparison in Vehicle mode.





It is nice in vehicle mode. the paint apps is the same as Henkei version. the tires are clear as well. I do not have the wonderfest crystal convoy. but seems from the picture the blue parts on KOLD are little bit lighter than the wonderfest version.

Comparison in Bot mode





Major joints are very tight. there are few random loose spots. the paint apps is the same as henkei version. The head is slightly different than the Henkei/Classic version.

individual picture



one side of door panel is loose because someone used a wrong pin. and the only other problem it has is the part between forearm and shoulder is a bit bigger, so you have to force it a bit when transforming the arm part.




Summary:

the mold is amazing needless to say, overall it is a nice alternative to a 400-500 Wonderfest Crystal Convoy. the only cons about it are few minor loose joints and not-exact head molding. Oh and Crystal convoy's windows is red, and the KOLD version is blue

Comparing your pics with my crystal convoy its vary close the transparent clear parts seem to be crisper (clearer) than on the original piece and the blues a lighter shade all in all a nice piece with out the high price tag.

there are several flaws. but not bad for the price imo. was regretting about I when found out the design flaw and loose joints. but these regrets were quickly overcame after thinking about the price tag of crystal and quality of this one.

another member came over my place today and he was surprised about the quality on these

Nice looking figure. I have the original. Just wait for the door to break off. My KOLDs doors break off.

I'm impressed by the improved plastic quality. I have the original KLEAR KOLD and that guy broke into like 10 pieces. I'm still soured about that experience...

Re: KO HENKEI KRYSTAL KONVOY LE-06 REVIEW

Ahhh.. I'm so scared to order this one.

I've got the KO Klear one with the autobot logo on the shoulders.

The pins were lose in the arms, elbows and front bumper that tucks up into the back. it won't hold any poses but I'd like to have clear colored one next to the two Sons of cyberton 2packs and the wing blade OP which comes in clear colored...

I propose a Calgary meet so we can all inspect.

That doesn't look too bad for the price.
