I'm with Kibble (to a point) I don't see the sense of urgency to buy the smaller classics KO of Optimus Prime.. I mean I love the Voyager size and scale, and I think it works for the classics characters to show that Skyfire and others are a bit larger in size..but to buy this KO at what I assume will be a high price... nah I pass..
As for the Mini Masterpiece Optimus Prime.. well that figure is just awesome!!that is exactly how the Masterpiece line up should have been done.. the Leaders should have been smaller to fit in scale with the likes of Grimlock, and so on..so I like the idea of the mini Masterpiece Optimus, and I think that who ever is producing these should do a mini Megatron..Now that would rock!

Notice in the prototype picture that the sides of the cab are solid with transparent windows, while as classics and henkei prime have the whole side cast in transparent plastic and then painted the non window areas.
Most people wouldn't care but I wish real henkei prime was like that, the red paint doesn't match the red plastic.

I completely agree...
I love the WSTs because they are so rediculously tiny...But I don't really see any point to these...They seem to be well done but they don't serve much of a purpose...

I have a feeling you'd be paying a lot more to do this than just buying NP on the second-hand market... You can get NP shipped for $30 on eBay right now. Considering it was $25+ shipping on HTS it's basically the same thing.

Very good point about the solid vs. transparent plastic.
Depending on the price and the quality of the finished product, I will most likely be getting the MP & Classic Primes. I just like the idea of a different sized version of molds I love.
