BotCon 2012 Coverage: Masterpiece Optimus Prime

Weapon: Gattling Gun
Here he is, Hasbro's version of MP-10 Optimus Prime complete with trailer, roller, and Spike. The full Seibertron.com gallery can be found by clicking here or any of the images below.


Yep. We're getting him here in the US. Toys R Us exclusive. The rumor from one of our fellow Seibertronians in Canada has said that this is priced at $99.99 Canadian, so expect a similar price here in the US.

I love the pose they have him in, with his head held high. It's silly, but awesome.

The one in package, looks...umm... Well, it looks like he's...nevermind.

Weapon: Temperature Variant H20 Gun
Do we know what the differences are gonna be between the Hasbro release and Takara's MP-10? Hasbro's looks slightly lighter, but I'd love to see some side by side comparisons.
Looking for:
-Classics Mirage
-Classics Cliffjumper
-Henkei Prime (Voyager)

In MISB/MOSC or complete/like new condition. PM me to sell or trade!

I was pretty tempted to get the Takara one, I'm glad I waited.

Weapon: Cyber Tail Claw
$99? Are we sure about this? Maybe they should have not included the trailer (and Roller I guess) and given us another Targetmaster or something so we could keep the price at what we got Rodimus at, I think it was $59.

Oh well, it's Optimus, it's not like I have a choice not to get him... Hopefully when he comes out a nice sale will accompany him.

I bet you my left nut that the packaging will be in english only and TrU WILL NEVER MAKE ANY EFFORTS TO RELEASE IT IN QUÉBEC.
Like all their other exclusives.
Sigh... Ebay, here we go again.
