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. >:oP

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.

MP44 looks better every pic I see, but this guy...not so much.

I am not impressed at all. I will stick with my MP-21G.

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. :lol:

A skull face review.


Also, I believe the release got moved up a hair as well.

Looks like someone is trying to copy Tidus's laugh from FFX

WOAH THERE!
It's something to be a bit inappropriate. But that was downright vulgar.

Man. That center image of him looks like he's thinking, "Why was I made?" :D

Keep forgetting just how terrible this thing looks from any angle other than the front..

Image

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. :))

If the price was half of what they asked for, I may have considered it for sheitNgilles.

I handled it at TFcon, even at half, I don't think it would be much fun

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