Coming back to this video, Baiwei sure have cleaned up their act since this. The QC issues seem to have been from a certain batch of the figure. There have been 3 revisions since then plus Nemesis and Magnus recolors. Quality seems to be very good now, especially now that Baiwei’s built up a reputation of good quality KO’s with their recent figures. I’m one of the comments at 0:50. And I’ve got the metallic repaint of this on the way to replace the one that broke on me. Update: Metallic version in hand now, and it feels *better* than my SS44. Joints feel nice, plastic feels firm and flexible and not brittle like the V1, and the metallic colors are pure eye candy. The front grille transformation is so smooth compared to SS32/44 that it feels illegal. Would highly recommend checking out the new revisions.

Scalpers are just greedy, and see an opportunity when it comes to popular figures. It doesn’t help that the Buzzworthy release of the figure didn’t get many copies put out into Target. Same with the Buzzworthy release of the Grimlock, and the SS 102 Optimus. It’s sad how that wave of Buzzworthy releases got very few copies released to Target; and they still haven’t restocked.

He's a knob who didn't do his research. He got the first version of the Baiwei's 1022, when they released 2 more versions of it afterwards, and decided to "boycott" Baiwei. When in reality, V2 and V3 are much better, I owe V3, and even though I've never owned the SS release, I do own many SS figures and Tw-1022 v3 is on par with them. At least the one I got is. Built like a brick, and so far nothing's broken, and I've transformed it quite a few times.

Alright, to shed some light on this, this is v1, it had massive QC issues and chest made out of clear plastic. It sucks, and even though it mostly looks good, it's good only for display. V2 and v3 are much better, actually go through some QC and are built of better plastic. I got v3 and it's pretty solid, I was so happy to actually own an SS32/44 Optimus Prime. Nothing broke yet. I believe Baiwei ain't bad at all. PrimeVsPrime recently reviewed their Ironhide, and I mean, it seems to a beast of a figure. Scalpers can go fuck themselves when there's a knockoff selling for less than $30.
@Jc88500 Жыл бұрын
Absolutely agree with you, I got my hands on an EX version (which is the metallic painted one) 2 days ago out of curiosity. It's such an improvement over V1 and feels even better than my official SS44 in some areas (mainly the front grille where the transformation is now extremely smooth and painless). I also got the V1 back when it first came out and well... It wasn't good. (My comment is dead center at 0:50).

For people that dont know, Baiwei is a new company thst resells studio series figures that are sold out and are over 100$, an they make them better, but the octimus is the weakest out of the 3 they remarketed. They took Ironhide and gave him the weapon upgrade kit and gave him foot articulation, and priced him at 35$. This guy is judging to fast. And I have this figure and I have absolutly NO problem with. I stands at my best octimus I have. Like honestly, how didyou get all these problems? You got the worst QC isues and all I got was one blade being molded without removing the peg on it. The fact that you dont know how to not break your toy and that you dont know how to tab everything together.
