Yeah I'm not really feeling it with BB but Op is just looking like a majestic bastard in all his glory. So I wonder if the frame comes pre-built or does everything need to be put together? Hopefully the latter cuz that just makes it more fun that way.

Yeah, we can finally see some of the numerous changes to the characters. Bumblebee does have more armor on his shoulder's upper arms (and his old shoulder armor looks slightly differently shaped, which is what I think makes it look beefed up to that other poster), the obvious chest mods, and his forewheels have moved from his rear-shoulders to his rear-waist. ( :( )

Prime's changes seem to be much more subtle (smaller pieces moving less noticeably), granted I am not as acquainted with his old designs as some other characters. Basically though Prime's silhouette will remain the same, which cannot be said for Bee.

I'm also rather surprised at how uni-thick each panel piece appears to be. They don't have the depth (especially the changes in depth) I appreciate greatly on movieformers alt-mode plates. It makes them look more fragile here.
And I agree Bee's mask is ugly...I don't expect them to be able to pull off each little feathery piece, but it IS rough, and they didn't even take off the armor on his head which is supposed to be said mask, lol, continuity. :lol:

However, overall I agree that these are amazing (sorry all you non-transforming transformers folks), and I would buy them in a heartbeat if I ever saw them on this side of the world. Alas, it's likely not to be unless someone has them at Botcon.

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if someone modded one of these to actually transform. Mmmm... :9

These are fantastic. Well, Bumblebee, a little less so.

This does tell me one thing... Bumblebee might be the most recognizable out of all of the movie characters, and the audience (especially kids) gravitate towards him, but Optimus clearly had much more work put into his design. Not just here in toy form, but in the CGI model itself.

This model kit shows off just how impressive he really is.

I kinda want the model simply because of that.

Daaang.

Can someone please explain to me why the Amazing Optimus happens to be Like twice the Price of Bumblebee? I can't seem to figure it out if they are the same size. And why does it seem that Has/Tak does not want to give Prime his guns..... It angers me.

They *are* different sizes as far as I know.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Hmm, I heard that they were either 1/35 scale, but then there was new information that said both were 9 1/2 inches tall. Do we have anything on size for them? Never mind, I researched the plans for them, and found the scale is 1/35, and that Prime and Bumblebee are two way different sizes. As seen here,

Last Question, Have we had any confirmation on whether these will come painted, molded requiring paint and/or decals, or unpainted?
