Meanwhile (well, a week ago now), Super7 put up preorders for another run of their Thundercats Ultimates Wilykit, Wilykat, and a version of Lion-O that was getting too expensive on the secondary market.

Looks like a positive trend in toy manufacturers responding to fan demands.

I was just surfing around BBTS and to my surprise! :shock: I'd definitely pick up another Galaxy Prime for this cool looking set provided some video reviews come out to see if its worth getting....'nuff said! :VEHI:

I got the normal Nova Prime version of that set and it's great. It really completes the Nova Prime figure in many regards that it was lacking in.

But that Optimus version? I look at it and just go, "But... why, though?" Besides the obvious capitalist answer of "Because, MONEY!"

This set just takes Optimus and makes him look evil. Like a Cybertronian wraith covered in blood, which is kinda edgelord-y in a very shallow way. There's no basis for this set's existence other than to turn Optimus into some try-hard's fanfic OC.

GODDAMMIT Sabrblade!
I don't have 200$+ extra to spend, hunting down a Galaxy upgrade OP on the secondary market and then, buying that expensive upgrade kit, you tease! :-(

But seriously, having the extra cash and space, I would so do it. :michaelbay:

If you want some version of the set, go for the Nova Prime version and give it to Nova himself. It's a great set that really makes that Nova figure shine, as it was Nova whom the set was first made for.

Whereas this version is more like "Let's make a grim and gritty version of Optimus Prime, in the vein of The Batman Who Laughs". >:oP

Already done. The only thing missing is the expensive Reprolabels set to make it truly 100% complete. ;)
