Courtesy of Perfect Effect Facebook, we have the color renders of their upcoming Perfect Effect PE-DX09B Psychro Knight (RID Cryotek).
This figure is a direct repaint and remold of Perfect Effect Mega Doragon as an impressive blue ice dragon. Original RID fans and collectors should have identified the inspiration on RID Cryotek, a blue repaint of the original Beast Wars Transmetal II Megatron toy. Perfect Effect included a new robot and dragon head which you can change between the regular Mega Doragon face and dragon head also included.
This figure is expected to be released by May 2019. While you wait, you can enjoy all the mirrored images after the jump! Share your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

I absolutely adore my PE Megatron, almost as much as their Optimal haha.

Seems a certain reviewer with a mask may have misinformed a lot of people with his guesses….
knightmare6
LOL, was misinformed, but yeah, I like PE's size and look more
Hexatron
Not "not direct-KO". It's 100% is own unique figure. Has zero connection to this figure apart from being the same character. And yes it is larger than this figure.
knightmare6
Okay, not direct-KO, but isn't the Jiang Xing version like 2-3 inches taller? I remember seeing some comparison photos of the slight size differences
octobotimus
There is no OSKO of this guy

Just got the figure today, after work! Bought it from another member on the boards, after disliking the increased size on the JX version!

Anybody selling theirs?

I agree, but I wouldn't triple-dip on this unless there were significant changes done. All new robot face(s) at a minimum, prefer new dragon head sculpt, chest sculpt if possible…
But IF they did "Queen Doraga" it would be an amazing incentive to have a transforming targetmaster partner to be her crow minion, which JUST so happens to have instant repaint potential…

I finally picked this guy up from Toyarena. Nothing to say that hasn't already been said but this guy is awesome.
Glad I picked it up but I have absolutely no place to put him.

Ooh this looks good. Wanna see how this looks in robot mode.

That’s the only change they did apart from minor paint apps differences (Cryotek lacks the silver on the wheel thing joints on the wings).
David Hingtgen
Oh, that's interesting, I always assumed there'd been no mold changes, and that Doragon simply "had no reason to ever remove the nose-piece".
Laserpants
No, he’s just got a straight dragon snout, no removable tip.
David Hingtgen
It doesn't? I only own Psychro Knight, but I keep the helmet off. The head underneath doesn't seem to be any different from Doragon's. Is the little "nose filler" piece "not a thing" on Doragon?
Laserpants
Nope, doesn’t fit.
