KFC Mugan Vox with Badbat
Site sponsor, Bigbadtoystore, has added a new preorder for the next offering from Keith’s Fantasy Club.

SXS Toys has released a picture of their second full transforming robot release on their Weibo. This “not-Blurr” was teased a while ago, however until now we had not seen anything more than a silhouette.
