Notes

[edit]
  • Kabaya considered releasing 'Musha' (Samurai) versions of some of their PD model kits. The unused designs for Musha Convoy and Musha Megatron were shown in Transformers Generations.
  • Kabaya is not the only model kit manufacturer to call their SD model kit line something other than "Super Deformed". For example, ARII called their SD Macross model kits "MD", presumably short for "Macross Deformed". These changes may have been necessary to avoid trademark infringement of Bandai's "Super Deformed" Gundam line.
  • Like many of Kabaya's other Transformers candy toy model kits, Chinese bootlegers have sold knockoffs of Kabaya's PD Transformers Chocolate Part 2 model kits in the past few years.
