The Energon Pub

It's not April 1st again is it?

though it is a nice idea, it's riding the back of the 'black convoy' ver. too close for comfort for me.

It seems the MP line could be dead and they are just trying to squeeze what they can from what they've got

It'd be a lot cooler if he was all smashed up.

Maybe they'll do a Sleepy MP Starscream? At least it wouldn't take up much space on a display shelf.

he should be called deadmode not sleep mode he wasnt sleeping he died needs some draker grey elements in other parts of body looks good i have him allready i dont small verison of him

I concur It's interesting, but would be much more so with battle damage. I'm not talking about the Hasbro paint splashes and penciled in cracked windshields, let's see some real chunks torn out, especially in the mid-section since Prime was mercilessly pummled there in the movie.

What repaints are left of this mold now? They haven't done a clear one. Maybe a 'Rise from Grave' or 'Reanimation' version when brought back to life by the Quints? Or maybe a 'Supernova' version where he's about to crash into an exploding sun?

more like masterpiece shattered glass optimus prime for the word

This does nothing for me and I'm quite glad. I need a bit of a break from figs with outrageous price tags.

I gotta agree here. Really, this isn't much to write home about without any sculpted battle damage. This is just "came late Black Convoy." Although it does look like it's coming with a completely unchanged trailer ... maybe so collectors will have some reason to buy it?

The only real reason I can see this being made is to hype up the 2010 connection to TF lore. That's waht this and Ghost Screamer have in common. Although I'd MUCH rather see a Galvatron (or even a Hot Rod / Rodimus) than these repaints I'll never buy.

Want. I'm the only one though.

Just because I don't like it, doesn't mean I don't want it. It's like art

nah, Blurrz will want it (he was clearly too sleepy to say so) and I can guarantee Mkall will want it too.

I like it. I wish it was a little bit more grey like the movie but, that's just being picky on my part. I'd get it but, I still haven't gotten the original masterpiece Prime.

This should come with a mini-Perceptor in alt mode only, and/or Daniel crying...

Well, some added info, this piece will be limited to 2010 pieces.
Also the trailer will be in crystal clear version.....

Some goodies to make you want it more..... I want it

If only the price made me want it.

Just a small point of contention with this figure. That matrix should not be lighting up for obvious reasons. Maybe it should fade to black for added effect instead. Just saying.

The trailer aspect makes it more appealing, but the 2010 pieces makes it less because all that means is it's going to be even more expensive...

Takara for the fail. I've bought 3 versions of the mold already, as interesting as it may be, no thanks. Too much money for something I have no idea how or where to display.

Nope, I have no interest in any more MPs at the moment

Shouldn't the matrix light up more when he dies. His spark is being added to it, there is no reason that I can see that the matrix would die with him.

I'll take 2! I try to get 2 of each MP, one to display and one to keep MISP! Love me some MP!

See I always thought that if the Matrix is not passed to another robot it would be lost forever. Give it is included with the figure I assume it was not passed in this case. Not including it all with the figure would also work 'theoretically' or one could just leave it out of the figure in the box altogether.

Need to check some TF lore.

I guess I need to check mine too, but I thought in Megatron Origins, Sentinel Prime died with the matrix in him.

In the movie, Magnus died before handing the matrix off to anyway. It was blown out of his hands.

Just saying.
