I think it's a stolen copy and not the final product. Maybe it makes a difference quality wise.

Paint rub seems to be the new Takara MP standard.

Gotta love another masterpiece that borrows third party ideas (in this case stickers to get around trade mark issues)

Takara's been doing that for a while. Ratchet did it too for the shoulders.

Yes, Prime looks amazing! That head sculpt is spot on. And they painted his eyes in such a way that they shine just like in "Autobot Spike."

The paint's rubbing off of this thing already.
Man, as if there wasn't enough things to mock about this thing.

All three pics and links are broken since that site doesn't permit hotlinking.

Keep forgetting just how terrible this thing looks from any angle other than the front..
The small chest looks comical next to all the "real" parts on the back.
It didn't even have to be so small. I don't think MP-21's torso is too big.
I do like the head sculpt in some photos, like in the first one from this batch. Would like to see someone else take a shot at an MP Bee with a chibi alt-mode.
Oh well.

So, Spike has to enter the vehicle like it was Urkel's car.
