Ok so fine, here's MP Hot Rod ready to do battle. He feels that Rodimus Prime can sit this one out

Can there ever be enough?

Is that MP1o's matrix?

I’m pretty sure there can’t be

Ah, looks like there are pins in it, does it move, slide, open, TF?

Kewl!

I've probably seen that somewhere before :-?

Dumb question and it tells you how many times I've pulled the matrix from MP10 (cause it's a bitch), does his?

I don't think it does, Cary.

Cram, do you have enough Matrixesises, to make a Matrix chain?

Cobotron is right, the MP10 matrix doesn't open. MP1 and all his variants and the TRU MP Rodimus (as he comes with a retooled MP1 version in addition to his super tiny version) all open.

I don't have enough. I'll never have enough!! I'm sure Shajaki has more. I do have the matrix ON A chain though, hooray D62S Galvatron!!

As far as official Matrix's go, MP mold-wise, there's 3. MP-1 (plastic, opens), MP-9 (tiny, doesn't open, diecast?), and MP-10 (diecast, doesn't open).

And there's a million variants of each.

Then (moldwise) of actual removable versions, I think there's the diecast Matrix that originally came with New Years Convoy (chained, no color), Big Convoy (plastic), Cyb/GF Prime (plastic)......... oh hell :lol:

I know the only diecast one I have is the Hasbro TRU MP10 based Optimus Prime. I'm pretty sure MP9 did come with a tiny diecast matrix! I'm not looking at the link, I'm winging it!!

You know what? I should make that a goal. Anyone who was a matrix holder I need a figure of, with the matrix. :lol:

I need a Matrix coin.

Speaking of Matrix..my favorites that fit inside of bots that I own. Pretty sure I've jammed that MP1 sized one inside MP1 before. :lol:

Here's these dudes I brought today.

I think if I had the trailer for MP Rodimus, I wouldn't buy DX9 Carry. But I don't, so I'm waiting. :shock:

I feel like the MP Hot Rod or MP Rodimus Prime had a coin option..

News Credits: 15 · by **galvatron00** » Fri Jul 13, 2018 10:48 am

There's some that have the look of the Matrix, and then some that have the Matrix chamber around them in the coin display.

So anywho, who wants to talk collection shifting?!

I say this because the dang MP figures I have are so awesome that I want more, and some of my old old figures are so awesome I want more, and then there's a bunch of stuff that's just filler. And then there's the figures I have to "complete a set" like the Autobot and Decepticon Headmasters, the Decepticon Targetmasters, the TF:TM cast (still need a Wreck-Gar as I foolishly parted ways with him), the Ark bots (which are seeming to be filled out on the MP side but also mixed in with fillers like Alternators or Generations) and that is satisfying and disappointing at the same time.

I think I need to break out Energon Galvatron to see if he should stick around..terrible thoughts!! He does have a slightly weakened cannon arm. Hmmmmm..
