I love this guy so much. I'm wondering if I should order one now or wait for a sale... I don't want to get this now if it's going to end up being heavily discounted like some of the TFA figures.
It won't, they manufactured way more TFA figures and have learned not to again.

Jeez, watching that review makes me crazy...he certainly is heavy "handed" with his figures.

Agreed, not a single R1 figure has been discounted yet, outside of maybe $25 or $30 off the first Death Trooper specialist. But really, even those are only $5 or $10 codes since the $20 codes can be used on any figure.
 
Geez that video/review :slap
It was like his hands were 2 dogs fighting over a wishbone!
And that "fix-it" attempt??!! :r2d2line:stake
 
Looks like there's a new trend with people vandalising their figures.

Harley Quinn, Wonder Woman, and now K-2SO.

a review is up and this dude had an issue with the figure.
for the life of me I don't know why he tried to take out other screws besides the one he was supposed to take out.




"You think for this price point, they would figure this out"

I'd have said: "You'd have thought that anyone with this amount of cash to spend on a robot toy, he'd take more care and not use such heavy handed tactics, and a more appropriately sized screwdriver for the job", lol.
 
It really is a bit painful to watch. Really odd that some reviewers aren't more gentle with the figures in front of their cameras. I mean, they can do whatever they want to, but you figure you'd want to be a bit more careful with something that costs that much.

That said, if the screw really came stripped out of the box, then he should've just gotten an exchange or a new portrait if the head pops off easily. Simple as that. Not sure why you'd go back and make it worse.

From experience with Hot Toys Iron Man figures, those tiny screws are sometimes really tight. Probably the same here. It can be easy to strip the screws if you're not using jewelry or precision screw drivers.
 
Some guys are sponsored for advertising Sideshow and probably get the figure for free since they have such a following. You see them wrench the joints around, drop it, and just yank on the interchangeable hands. This guy might just have money to burn.
 
Ah, I see you all are discovering the "manhandles his figures and accessories" review guy. He had a review a couple months ago that was hard for me to watch, I believe it was the Mark 46. But he's rough with everything, usually just tossing the stands and accessories onto whatever surface he has set up there.

Also, just please everyone can we stop with the bright white backgrounds for reviews? That's just a completely unrelated personal pet peeve I have.
