JinBao Robot 豹 Oversized KO Warbotron WB-01 Transformers Masterpiece Bruticus

[@TheProtronic]

The fact the figures are so light might have been a cost saving measure, but it actually works out better this way because the combined mode has good stability and posing due to the light weight of the individual pieces.

[@julz_and_toby9265]

But is this worth it over the original

[@davidhovik7176]

Yes he is everyone that has the figure says he is fantastic.

[@n0ret82]

@DLS Rude boy Definitely is..Its the best iteration of Warbotron (Warbotron, Machine Boy, Some other KO, and JinBao) I own the Original Warbotron, and i also bought the Jin Bao version..highly recommend the latter..cheaper, bigger, better quality IMO

[@MrJarjar1]

and it increases playing time 😂😂

[@syafiqsupingi7882]

My sentiments exactly. I bought this cheap bruticus with no expectations of superior quality but it just blew me away. I couldn't find anything wrong with it and keep asking myself how Jinbao may have conned me. Still satisfyingly mind blown :)

[@lavafoxx]

Man, it would be great if these guys worked on an oversized Unicron. i'd pay many monies for that.

[@TimKaysNerdcrate]

I have not seen any Unicron that I like. I even bugged out on the Platinum Edition. There needs to happen something!!!

[@carloserding2275]

lavafoxx that would be massive

[@jamescurtis5988]

Hell yeah!!! That would be awesome!!! 😁

[@jayjay53313]

lavafoxx need oversized devastator and superion combiners too. I would want each of the constructicon as big as optimus

[@hatmann5697]

YASH

[@sammakestoys9223]

Got mine Tuesday and I actually haven't been this satisfied with a figure since mpp-10. While I agree the plastic is not masterpiece quality, I feel it is a polymer that would be entirely acceptable on a mass market toy and I have had 0 issues with it. They all feel sturdy, and I couldn't be happier. If anything I think the lightness of the plastic helps with the sturdiness of the combined mode

[@GrainPain]

So you're saying that a bootleg of a third-party figure is much cheaper, and while having cheaper plastic, is an overall improvement over the original third-party figure? For 160 dollars?!

[@texasbeast239]

I got him for $99 on ebay.

[@gazuhiramiller]

Third Party knockoffs are superior than a Chinese knockoff

[@shinyshuckle3771]

I know I'm really late, but $160 is technically only $32 a figure for figures which are in the MP Scale and have decent durability and have improved upon the original in several features.

[@metalmatt3431]

I LOVE my Jinbao Predaking, got him transformed up perfect and he just sits in my display cabinet blowing my mind every time I look at him. I'm pretty poor so I have to be careful how I spend my money on figures but I've wanted a Predaking all my life and he sure does the trick for me. Only got room for one titan in the apartment atm and I'm glad I picked him, but as soon as I get my new cupboard I'm DEFINITELY getting this too : )

[@NathanSimmonsSworn]

I can't wait to get mine! I got OS Bruticus and OS Feral Rex, so I know what I'll be doing when I get them.

You’ve convinced me to pull the trigger on this set. Thank you.

[@Drewbe821]

The Jinbao series looks like great shelf candy. They will have to be near my titans for security purposes.

[@jaraxel888]

This is mighty tempting... really really tempting.... I enjoy your reviews a lot but a feedback is I often find you become quieter and quieter. For example in this review after getting to the vehicles the commenting became very soft and I had to turn up my volume quite high to be able to listen. I'm not sure if it's a microphone issue or how far the mic is when you are making the video... but it's something that was quite notable in this review. Otherwise keep up the great work!

[@lucasdelfino5358]

I bought this almost two years ago and I still think is the best buck for the money I’ve ever spent on a transformer toy!

[@jakebrecht5459]

I'm considering buying it. What do you think of the head sculpts on brawl, onslaught, and vortex? Do they look accurate to how they do from the official warbotron figure and also g1?

[@sont77]

Where can I get this exact one?

[@kaoru780]

my only gripe with it is that the dual cannons at the back is too small and doesnt come forward like the fansproject one

[@aaronmauer7225]

This is such a great set. I am very happy with it

[@YakBat]

Bought these due to this review and laughed when you aid you might get a second set for alt mode. Then I had to get 3 sets cause each mode needs to be shown. These are my all time favorite 3P figures. Really debating getting another three for a Black and purple color scheme.

[@Ndstructibull]

Got mine today. It's pretty awesome. Only problems I have are one of Vortex's guns is coming apart and Blast Off has a really bad stress mark on his wing and a loose elbow. Still happy with the purchase.

[@ailma0400]

Being a massive Bruticus fan, ME WANT!! Definitely getting this bad boy for my Birthday in March!

[@Shockwave-ob2tx]

As to the big package comment at the beginning, the postman was probably like, "Really, Ben?", and then rolls his eyes...lol!

[@somarriba333]

I am now done buying 3rd party combiners. I bought the original set at $80 each and up. If I ever buy another one, I will just be patient until all the complete set are out with all QC issues addressed or wait for something like this where you can get a larger set for less than the price of TWO original Warbotron figures.

[@RID01S]

I just bought this guy off sir toys and I cannot wait for him to arrive, he will easily replace my combiner Wars Bruticus, he looks like an amazing figure

[@feniksphoenix8026]

Hey Ben! Thank you for your awesome review. I ordered it, because you convinced me (again). You also introduced me to the Wei Jiang MPP10 series, and it did not disapoint me. My Question? Do you think that a company like Jin Bao will also make an OS KO of the Gravity Builder by Generation Toys in the future? Kind Regards from the Netherlands.

[@demonicusprominon6723]

Yes, I think they will make an oversize devastator

[@youmongrel]

Daaamn $140 for the whole thing? Tempting...

[@LS-jk3fk]

found him for 110 dollars, thats a real steal

[@davidhovik7176]

Hes down too a $100 now and that's with his original box.

[@brotherzael7986]

for a figure hasbro would definitely sell for like 250 and the "official" warbotron being 400 dollars, 120 for the KO is absolutely STELLAR especially for the quality

[@iandirish]

Ben I think as individual robots they're great when displayed with the Cybertron/Galaxy Force line. They're quite boxy-limbed and quite colourful, much like Cybertron. What do you think?

[@toddvergith9485]

I just got this for $114.99 on TFsafari. Can't wait. I also got their Predaking and Defensor and those where $109.99 each. I agree with you on the Predaking it's basically good for display only. The Defensor is solid and a great buy. Can't wait to get this.

[@thetruenemesis469]

I got one for my little brother as a birthday gift. I say is worth it. I need one for myself.

[@Aleshov]

because of your review of the wei jang oversized CW Defensor team. I ordered the navy and orange recolour of Rook and man, He's a fantastic stand in for the Generations IDW Voyager Roller. I love the figure so much, I need to get the others now, and get the new Streetwise and First Aid they added.

[@Kaluvin]

I didn't realise OS Blast Off is as tall as mp-11. Aren't mp-11 and Inferno counted as (lower) leader size? Given that Jinbao has invested a lot on this mould, they better do Ruination to complement FansHobby Scourge.

[@DragoonMS]

Kaluvin Probably not happening at this point; Warbotron didn't even do a reissue of their set as Car Robots Baldigus/Robots in Disguise '01 Ruination, so Jinbao likely wouldn't do it on their own.

[@DecepticonZombie]

[@oneandonlygibgib2093]

i have seen lots of your reviews this is my favorite

[@AfoteyAnnum]

I'm thinking that instead of waiting for Machine Boy to release their Onslaught so that I can complete that version of Bruticus, I'll sell the four figures I have and get this version. I'm a big fan of oversized figures, and the quality seems decent! And for the price, I can totally see myself copping two sets and having one set in a different mode LOL Great review, as always.

BrainComm487 pretty much what I did. I didn't care for the combine mode but I liked the way they looked to add quantity to the deception ranks.

I'm actually toying with the idea of getting two sets and then modding one into some other characters. Vortex into Alpha Bravo- if the connector port is the same as the OS Aerialbot- stuff like that.

Hi Ben Ive been coveting this figure after seeing your review. I ordered what I thought was this figure to my dismay it was a very bad ko. IE no Onslaught head for blue truck, blast off came with 2 tail fin pieces of same side. The feet! Oh the feet on my version were so flimsy. It was impossible to pose aside from just standing position. I will ensure to purchase Jinbao Brand later. Thank you for your review!

@Daniel Woytowich I ordered mine from eBay seller name yellowb_85. I ordered 2 sets from this seller the Jinbao bruticus and Jet Commander Superion. I think as long as you order the Jinbao version bruticus you should be good. As I previously mentioned I went for the cheapest version on my first go around and was extremely disappointed thankfully I was able to resell at deep discount. Good luck!

@Daniel Woytowich hoping the shipping will be faster for you. It took over a month for my Jinbao bruticus to arrive the jet commander arrived sooner three weeks I believe.

I bought from different seller and it arrived fast!

@Daniel Woytowich the Jinbao box art looks different from Bens video just a heads up in case you receive this same box but its the same figure. After it arrived I combined to bruticus and it’s been displayed ever since.

Great review! Could you provide a link where I can get Autobot an decepticon insignia stickers for these? I don't want to mess up buying ones that have gray colors around them.

[@TheMRpredatorwolf]

my bruticus looks incredible but problem 1 legs when trying to give a pose, it gets loose try to put against a wall or use his gun that can be store it on the back to support it, problem 2 joints are tight especially on arms and this is not fun because the locks on behind the shoulders releases you try to give a pose on the arms, then the legs move in middle of shaking because legs can't handle his weight but I have loosen the arms up by give it 360 degrees of rotation as long till I feel it is easier to turn problem 3 the peg holes where you put weapons or onslaught arms when you transform it get stuck because they are tight I already broke one gun the day I got it but it is cheap and knockoff I can forgive it because bruticus is adorable and it is not as worse as weijiang hound transformation, you just need to have patience!

[@turtlemike5279]

Highlight of this review.... *Childs Toy Tight Joints* ....I want to buy this but i hope those Tight Joint Don't break .

[@DragoonMS]

So I ditched my previous comment outright to replace it. Seems that the scary tight joints (especially the Combiner posts & ports) is a hallnark of Jinbao...their Predaking & Devastator do that as well. Funny because Razorclaw's hips clearly ain't strong enough to handle all that weight. The plastic being "a step up from" Predaking makes me think that this was a go-between, a midpoint of sorts, from Predaking to the ridiculously fantabulous Devastator. And annoyingly, while being relatively difficult to find now, it's still the lowest priced option for a MP scaled set of Combaticons (especially considering that the lowest you can go for a relatively G1 aesthetic is a still unholy $300 for Unique Toys Ragnaros at TCP). 😞😞😞

[@Directo13]
