DNA Design updates with news of their DK-44 upgrade kit for Transformers Rise Of The Beasts SS-102 Optimus Prime. It seems they are trying to tease the set by recreating the scene from the movie where Optimus Prime finishes off Scourge. So it's not clear exactly what is in the pack, but IMO there better be quite a bit as this figure needs some work still. - Read the Full News Story

As anticipated, the reveal of the DK-44 102BB Optimus Prime DNA Design Upgrade Kit would be a big one. There is always a challenge to get the movies toys right at retail, but they are always over simplified or don't match what we saw on screen due to running changes. In this case, it feels like both as the 102BB figure just looks off with the huge smokestacks, strange trailer bed, puny guns, and other issues. - Read the Full News Story

DNA Design has posted an update on their SNS channels about the 102BB Optimus Prime DK-44 Upgrade Kit. They have gotten many requests to improve the shoulder joints, and they have! This makes the DX-44 even more of a must-have for the Buzzworthy Bumblebee Studio Series 102 Optimus Prime. Read on to see the update and images from DNA Design on the new addition. - Read the Full News Story

So they changed this and WFC Optimus based on fan feedback but not anything else. 

Seriously, SG Wheelie should be done up like Full Tilt like everyone has said yet they won't change it. They also didn't change the heads on TM2 Megatron that weren't any more accurate than the stock head. Or done any other changes. Their kits are all on discount now and nobody is buying them outside of a select few actually decent sets like the Grimlock set. Yet I was told I was the crazy one for pointing out all the flaws in their kits for the past two years while claiming that nobody was going to buy them. Which has all come to pass. Go figure. I know I come off like an old man yelling at clouds but pretty much everything I've complained about from a great many things has come true.

That makes me a profit...I mean prophet. No I was right the first time. I'm a profit prophet. If you listen to my prophecies you will turn a profit. If you don't all your shit will hit clearance and nobody will buy it even then.

Those of waiting for the DNA Design DK-43 GE03 Optimus Prime and DK-44 102BB Optimus Prime Upgrade Kits will be glad to know they are still coming but have been delayed shipping from the factory. They have let fans know these kits will be going out sometime this month. Read the official update below for the full details. - Read the Full News Story

The DNA Design DK-44 102BB Optimus Prime Upgrade kits are rolling out late, but they are finally coming with the much needed fixes for this figure. Like the movie, this figure was remade from a previous design that while they pulled it off, it has a lot of design flaws that DNA have addressed. Even still, its not what it should have been for Optimus Prime's toy. - Read the Full News Story

Now if you could just find the figure! 😔
