I don't see that much paint on it. Or at least, no more than what was on the good version's trailer.

I guess not maybe its the color of the plastic and its so dark

Isn't the left shoulder's badge molded on instead of it being a paint application?

Can confirm; his Autobot badge is molded detail.

It's not that badge that would need done, it's the ones that are on the side of the alt mode below the windows. there are massive shattered symbols there:

But there's no room on the MP-10 cab's side for that kind of big Autobot symbol since the side splits apart to form the robot's arm and torso.

I would be ok if the symbol was split apart for robot mode or if it were just small enough to fit on the arm alone. The point was that Prime needs that shattered insignia on his truck sides

"Til All Are Gone!" (Pic from TransformersAsia on Facebook)

News Credits: 191 · by **Kurona** » Mon Sep 26, 2016 6:07 am

Fellow Seibertronians, fellow board member Logan. tells us that even after the dozen pictures Hasbro Asia's facebook delivered yesterday, they still have on more to show us - this one being a close-up of SG Optimus' cab revealing that, yes, he still has his signature "Till all are gone!" written on the top! Does it's being there change your decision on getting this guy in any way, or does it just make the purchase even sweeter? Tell us in the Energon Pub!

As if I couldn't love this thing enough already!

Did they just put those words on, after people saying they want those words there. It seems like they put up original rumor pictures and see what people say and made changes according to what our reactions are. Look at the original post and this new one of shatter glass Optimus. What looking at the same place in the cab and these words are added later. Does t matter, I'm pre-ordered him

Erm, the words were there on the first physical pics of the figure we saw:

The images on the earliest pages of the thread are just stock photos rather than they physical product.

Looking at the original stock photos I can't see the phrase there, either. It might also be the lighting and angle of the lighting, mind.
I'd still be tempted to say it's a last-minute decision. A great last-minute decision in any case

Y'know...... I'm suddenly upset. For a "premium" and expensive figure, he's not being done right and he easily could be.

He should have his jagged bot symbol painted on the side and maybe nothing on the shoulder. The mold exists to do so (MP10B).

Kurona, please stop doing that. Hasbro Asia is not the same thing as Transformers Asia. Hasbro Asia is Hasbro's Asian marketing division while Transformers Asia is an independent third party that licenses exclusives (and the odd re-releases like MP Soundwave) from Hasbro (and Takara Tomy). Think of TFA like you would e-Hobby or Fun Publication. It would be like taking something posted on the BotCon Facebook page and reporting it as coming from Hasbro's Facebook page. Two entirely different things.

It does exist and I agree. Those huge shattered symbols make the alt mode

And since we're at it, I would love it if they paint the grill, bumper and grey siding chrome. I love chrome on my Optimus. No fear of rubbing off, don't play with my toys, display only

Gotta admit, while I care not for Shattered Glass, he looks pretty good and that purple is frickin' gorgeous!

I'm hoping it ships out before I actually go on Christmas break. Finals end December 10 and I'll be around an extra week or so for work (I guest teach as schools) so I really really really hope it comes before then so I can enjoy it when I'm bored at night and upload bookoo amounts of images
