Colour me inpressed. I hated the original MP Prime. I may have to get Rodimus and Convoy at some point. Takara have really got it right with this and Rodimus - I hated all the other Masterpieces, but these two have really sparked my interest.

It's a bit gutting that Megatron is so crap. If I got this Convoy, I may have been tempted to get him, but the current one is made of fail, so I'll pass. Maybe we'll get lucky next year and get Galvatron.

OK, I like it.

Was sceptical about another MP Prime but this is cool. It conforms more to the G1 shape than the previous Prime and the bot mode looks just as good.

I think it will be expensive with that trailer.

This probably means we will get another long line of repaints in the MP line though which I suppose will help finance another new mold.

I'll buy it but what will I do with my MP-01B, MP-02 and MP-04 and 20th Anniversary Primes now?

Edit: Kapow Toys want £174.95 for it!!! Not a chance im gonna pay that for it. :-(

What does it mean by "Transforms by one touch"? Springloaded or something? If that's the case, it's not really a Masterpiece, now is it?

To be honest, I see nothing here worth $275.00

Online toy shop Kapow Toys has posted the first images of the upcoming Transformers Masterpiece MP-10 Optimus Prime.
This is a brand new mold for Optimus Prime, and this figure is smaller compare to Masterpiece MP-01 or MP-04. It is roughly the same size of MP-09 Rodimus Convoy.
This version of Optimus Prime comes with trailer, roller as well as Spike.

Check out the images below:

I like it too, although I'm really torn about how it will fit into my current Masterpiece collection.

I hold on to the hope that this mold will make it easier for them to create a working trailer armor set for the inevitable Ultra Magnus repaint. If that happens I'll be sold on this new direction.

*Edited*

It's looking pretty good. Not sure about $250 good, but good.

Alas, I just wasn't fast enough to keep up with a veteran like Mach.

I believe they are talking about the gun here. Kinda like the gun with WFC Prime.

Thats what she said.

Quick thought - this could actually get a Hasbro release. I don't see anything there thats gonna seriously break any toy safety laws.

I was hoping for a slightly better proportioned alt-mode, but still very nice. I love the covered wheels on the legs.

by **bdougwrx** » Tue May 10, 2011 5:54 am

I got a preorder in, just gotta wait for a few reviews now.

Wow, wish I could afford it. With all the movie Primes and Megatrons that I'll be grabbing, not to mention the eventual release of Transformers: Prime figures, I don't think I'll have any room in the budget for this one. Pretty upset about it actually.

News Credits: 125 · by **Counterpunch** » Tue May 10, 2011 6:10 am

Looks pretty damn good.

I should cross-reference anyone who comes into this thread with praise against anyone who slammed the figure without seeing it.

News Credits: 23 · by **Prime Evil** » Tue May 10, 2011 6:19 am

Very nice looking figure. Probably the best looking Prime we have seen since MP01. Love both alt mode and bot mode aesthetics, buuuut I'm getting really bored of the same prime over and over again (yes, I'm a G1'er), and definitely NOT for that price. See how the US will price this figure if we get it over here.

Ah. I hope that's all it is. Still, not impressed enough to spend that kind of dough.

Neat? Sure.
Looks good? Sure.
$250? No.

Actually not bad. I had my doubts about another MP Convoy, but this is impressive. I like the head, and the tiny Spike figure. LOVE the fact that the Ion Blaster is foldable and can be stored in the back. Probably a reference to TF:TM when Prime magically pulls it out of his back. If they decide to make another MP in this scale w/PROPER legs, I might be game for that too. Here's hoping the next MP is actually Soundwave though. I've waited long enough.

As much as I DO like this, I don't know if it's better than MP-04 in a significant enough sense to purchase it.

That's a shame really.

Something about the bot mode is not working... I just don't know what...

Spike and the truck mode look pretty awesome though....

I'm liking what I see; I'll have to see whether I like it $250 or not when it hits.

I also really hope we get a Megatron in this size out of SOMEBODY, preferably Takara.
