It's only exclusive in japan, it's not exclusive in the US, you can still buy it. The preorders will be up within a week.

As logical as Reflector is, I liked the look of Prime more (and he will look great with my collection of "odd" Optimus Primes, such as PSX Prime.

Btw, for those in Japan, here's the TT Mall link for Reflector: - https://takaratomymall.jp/shop/g/g4904810187677/

Refraktor is the only exclusive between the two.

That's because the 20% discount has yet to be activated.

I never got the pen, was I was poo- at the time. There are KOs, I believe, but I'm also interested in the Gshock too. It was EXTREMELY overpriced and unacceptably limited (available only by lottery at selected Gshock shops in Japan). Basically, how NOT to sell "limited" edition TFs.

You're not missing anything with the pen. Robot mode looks fine, pen is just a brick, which is bloody hard to use anyway. :lol:

That's what I heard. It's a weird novelty, don't know why it even exists.

At nearly 200$, that's one hard pill to swallow for a noveltyformer.

I don't mind, there are certain novelty items that just speak to me, and this is one of them. Plus, he can be Alternity Reflector

Well, I paid way more for what many would consider way worse. So as usual, to each their own.

I just hope that the size and overall quality will justify the price. Not like Ectotron at 110$CAN at Canadian Toys R Us for example.

A new transformation video was uploaded for cannon camera Optimus Prime. Seems it actually works? Just a little smaller than the real thing. The news crew should post about it soon....

And you were the one who thinks collecting HAS TO be expensive earlier?

What's that HAS TO thing?

Anyway, "expensive" is in the eye of the beholder. You see a thing, it got a price, then you judge what you are willing to pay VS your finances.

That's why I would never buy that 200$ cameratimus, but I'll buy the 200$ MPM-13 Blackout.
Same thing for spending nearly 1000$CAN for the G1 Victory Saber set, but I waited for Ectotron to be on final clearance at 66$CAN before buying it.

A video is up about cannon camera prime (since it's obvious you don't know), and seems it actually functions like the real thing. still expensive while you eyes are beholding it? If this new information is true I'd say it might be close to worth it.

You won't post the link to the video.
Therefore, that video doesn't exist.

HA!
I know you hate me, but you don't need to look for opportunities to discredit me that "DON'T EXIST"
