I can see them making a Nemesis Prime version as well as a Ultra Magnus version of this. And later on, Igear will have this as well.

Yeah, the first Masterpiece Prime was gimmick-AWESOME. Seriously... the first time I pressed down on his ankle-shock-absorbers and the vents popped open... I just about cried. Some seriously nice, well-thought-out gimmicks.
Here, we have a great display piece and transformation.... but no gimmicks really. Wish the price reflected that! Then I'd be okay with it all.

People here are so damn picky sometimes!
This is an amazing Masterpiece Transformer! It looks great, comes with all of the right accessories and is properly sized for display with the rest of the Masterpiece line. I for one will be getting one even if I have to order from overseas (rare for me).
I just hope it is more durable than Masterpiece Rodimus.

Yeah igear will make this but don't you think it will be a chinsy version of this though. Like the weak plastic on the Faith Leader that would shatter like glass on some pieces? I just don't trust they're quality enough to make me want to invest in any of their products. The only thing I've actually been moved to buy has been they're cassette scout and to be honest it's hella cheapo but it does complete my cassette collection.

Absolutely right!!! So much crying going on.
The "duck feet" problem is beyond my understanding. The feet actually look like feet now not stubby little dumpers. All those gimmicks were so unnecessary IMO. This really looks like Optimus Prime from the cartoon. As pointed out by multiple others on this website.

I just preordered this from Big Bad Toy Store and I can't wait to get this. Even though I wont open it. So this is going to be my 50th different version of Optimus Prime. I got a very impressive Optimus Prime collection.
I prefer quality over quantity, I have the unique collection of Optimus Primes/Convoys!

I'll be getting one...just not the $250 one. As soon as Hasbro cheapen it up for domestic/overseas release I'll be in there whining that I can't find it in TRU.......hopefully this wont be the first MP in a while that skips Europe.

I see no similarity.
I would like to know why the feet are a different colour.
Because the mold was showing signs of quacks. Sorry about that, couldn't resist!!!!

There IS the chance his toes may fold in. I forget which Prime does that, but I remember at least one which had longer toes which fold in.
Anyone?
