Whats the matter? Did they repaint the first MP Prime too many times and the mold finally broke? Alt mode is fantastic but I don't need to pay 200+ bones for a truck to sit on my shelf. Also, the autobot logo on the trailer is too far back and the miniture laser rifle looks ridiculous. Easy pass.

It's one of the many molds of Car Robots Devil Gigatron, or RiD Galvatron in the states. It took me a minute to recognize it, too.

And what looks like a page on the shuttle shown in the film, and that old Japanese G1 Autobot shuttle... not sure if this has any significance, since I can't read it.

That's the Cyberverse Playset Prime. He's a little tiny Prime with a little tiny trailer full of deadly weapons.

Give it a chance! The Cyberverse stuff is very well engineered, cheap, and a ton of fun.

That's the TOMIX GI:MIX Starscream color F-22A Raptor. Basically, it's a non-transformable jet.

Seems "Goose Mode", if that's what you're referring to, is an 11th mode for Devil Giagtron/Galatron, but where it originates is anyone's guess (unless they read Japanese).
Talking of which, can anyone translate this? Interviews look epic.

Honestly they should make a dotm sky lynx, it would be fun.

I'd love an Autobot repaint of Cyberverse Hatchet in Sky Lynx colors!

I agree, the only DOTM stuff I have is Cyberverse. Cyberverse Commander I should say. I really like them and they lots of fun. Nothing else in the DOTM line interests me but those little guys caught my eye.
I'm in two minds about MP10. On one it is far too expensive and doesn't look as nice as MP01 in bot mode. On the other it has an excellent alt mode, the articulation is better and the size helps it fit in with the other MP's. I'll wait and see if it shelf warms like MP03. It will hopefully come down in price. MP09 has made me wary of buying Masterpiece toys right away too.

Cheers, dude. Thought it looked too good to be true.

Paint rubbing, paint flaking, not sitting flat in vehicle mode, can't hold the guns unless the fingers are in the correct position, arms can't support the weight of the combined gun and the visor is floppy as hell.

Actually, the Hasbro's version is blue in those areas as well, so it's going to be the same.

Looks like it's out of stock to me... Though the second version of the figure is still available for pre-order...

As for the topic:
I'm digging the Cyberverse Megatrons I have (the regular one, the black/purple Target repaint that came with BB, & the Megatron w/ trailer)... I really like them all, and look forward to finding the matching Prime figure (I've only got the Preview figure of him, I'm looking for the one w/ the blades & the one w/ the trailer)...
I'm very tempted by both the Ultimate Prime & MP10 figures, but will have to see if I have enough money when they become available...

mp rodimus is bigger, packaged in a massive box, and more delicate (i'm assuming).
mp-10 is smaller than the first masterpiece prime. who makes up these pricings???? it's getting harder and harder to own a masterpiece figure.
I remember when the first master piece figure was only $100-$120. Now they are almost doubled!
honsetly...WTF!
Posted by Overcracker on August 30th, 2011 @ 11:56am CDT

Hopefully MP-10 has better construction than Rodimus first ver, and doesn't have panels falling apart.
Other than that yes he's quite expensive, but Rodimus wasn't all that cheap to begin with either. If i'm not mistaken he was close to 200 bucks himself.
Yes Hasbro cheapened him out by removing the trailer, but still the Original MP with all the trimmings was clearly more expensive.

Plus, Convoy is slightly longer with the trailer as far as I can imagine and has more stuff, like Roller and Spike Witwicky. Those add to the cost.
