The big reveal of Tokyo Toy Show was the new Masterpiece Optimus Prime. So, with Wonderfest Summer happening right now, we get to actually see this grey model on display. It is next to previously released Masterpiece toys like Sunstreaker and Ratchet and also next to newly revealed Hound, for you to better assess the scale. His tag still does not give us his MP number but it does have "(ver. 3)" as part of it's title, for identification purposes. We see both his robot mode and his cab and trailer mode. We also get a good shot at his back which surprisingly seems quite clean and a good take on his backpack in the G1 cartoon. We also see him with his shoulders kept more inside for a more narrow stance. The pictures come from Weibo and Twitter, and Dengeki Hobby.

Let us know what you think of this new Optimus Prime Ver 3! And keep an eye out on our site as we will be unloading more news from the show!

Proofreading: "assess", not "asses".

Still, very nice to see its scale. Also, MP Hound looks great!

As much as they milked the MP-10 mold for as many repaints as they could get from it, I wonder how many we will get from this new version over the next 10 years or so?

He actually does look quite good here, though I'm still not bothered about cartoon accuracy. The trailer intrigues me though, does it only open to reveal the Base as before or is there more going on there

MP-10 is a better figure overall, but with the current direction of the MP line, this is a much, much better fit.

Yeah looks like it. The top of the backpack with the central screw is the front bumper and hinged on to the sides are the outer corners of the front bumper.

Also sandwiched in the backpack it looks like the panels from the top of the truck mode.

Unfortunately, We'll not be getting any more :HASBRO:

versions of MPs. One of the SDCC interviews with John Warden stated that any US releases will be the exact same production run of the figure as the :TAKARATOMY:

markets, even in the exact same box, the only difference will be a cardboard sleeve around the box with english language text (and presumably hasbro branding).

Yeah, I know about that, but I don't think that means it's the only way they'll ever do an MP release from now on. If they think they can get Amazon to pick up a special MP release as an exclusive they're going to do it. It's Optimus Prime after all, of course they'd give him special treatment, especially if there really is a voice chip in there.

Even if Hasbro isn't releasing their own MPs, that doesn't mean this figure will only be available with Japanese audio clips. It could easily just be pew-pew/transformation sounds. Or, given how expensive this thing looks, maybe the identified switch isn't power. Maybe it's language?

I'd actually be 100% ok with this lol! Too many cost cuts on the U.S. versions(missing accessories, stripped down instructions etc.)

Agreed, a bot mode like that (especially with his entire chest being fake kibble) really merits a truck mode with those big, square headlights, and no rivets.

I think the windows on his chest are not fake. They are the real windows from the front of the truck cab.

Look at the panel lines on truck mode.

In truck mode, the frames around the windows are fake. They are panels sitting on top of the windows.

I'm going to take it a step further and say it's the same window inside out. There's a seam that runs down the side and a small lump just half way down, I think the windows open, rotate at the lump, and then close again to flip them over. It'll be easier to tell for sure when we see him in color.

For those unaware, Takara will be releasing a third Masterpiece Optimus Prime (the first being MP 01, then MP 10). This version will be more articulated than ever before, more accurate than ever before and surely more expensive than ever before. We just didn't know how expensive, until now.

A listing from Action Robo on Facebook has a simple set of details but they are all crucial, here is what is stated:

MP-44 Optimus Prime ver. 3.0
Late August 2019
50,000 Yen

Firstly, we now know the numbering of the figure, MP-44, and that it will be coming out in august next year. Also, while the 50,000 price point (seems high, it fits in line with the increase in prices in the MP line. We had a similar reaction when MP-41 Dinobot was revealed to be 28,000 Yen. MP Beast Wars Megatron was revealed to be even more expensive than that, and with Optimus Prime coming with a massive trailer, this is the around the price point we were gearing up to get. Of course, this is the MSRP and while domestic importers may stick with this price, the figure may be up to 30% cheaper if you deal with the importing yourself.

Just to give an idea of the current exchange rate, 50,000 Yen is equivalent to:
$440 USD
$585 CAD
$610 AUD
390 Euros
345 Pounds

Gotta say, I'm not nearly impressed enough with that figure to want to pay about twice what the previous version costs. (Yes, I know the price hasn't been finalized yet, etc., but I wouldn't even pay thirty dollars more for that over MP-10.)

Yeeeeeahhh... I'm gonna wait for one from Maketoys most likely. Their Despotron looks amazing, and it's only like 130 bucks. Seriously, you're paying way less for a Megatron way less likely to drive you absolutely insane. Plus I prefer more bulky characters anyway for the leaders, so Despotron's "thickboi" legs actually look awesome to me, regardless of how many people go full super saiyan crybaby over it.

But.. 440 FUCKING DOLLARS for an MP OPTIMUS at BASE LEVEL? WHY??? Takara, these are not Prime One Studios FUCKING STATUES!!! THEY'RE MPS!!!! FUCKING STOP!!!! *breathes* I thought Sunstreaker's steep price was crazy, but ohohoh boy.. I didn't know nothing yet. This frankly makes me wanna support 3rd Party companies almost outta spite. Maybe I'll just take my Siege and 3rd Party MPs and be happy with that. Dunno if I'll ever get official MPs at this point.

I only realized how steep it was after writing that post, so I edited in a ton of angry words about it.

Seriously, I'm legitimately angry right now. At this point I've become jaded towards Takara's MPs to the point of forsaking my integrity to get KOs instead. I was like the biggest preacher against KOs, but their choices have driven ME to want and consider buying KOs. Kill me now.

It's a good looking figure and all but is any figure actually worth that much?

When buying things I try to think of not only about if I want it but also how much time I'll get out of it compared to the price.

So a few hundred dollars for something I'll probably only fiddle with for a couple days tops (not literal days but the actual amount of time I'm interacting with it) is probably not worth it.

Assuming this is accurate and that the exchange rate holds, this will be a ~$350 preorder. I expected $300 so this stinks, yes, but is probably not a deal breaker.

Now this being said, the exchange rate will almost definitely swing a good bit between now and next August. Hopefully it does so in a beneficial direction.

At these prices... goodbye Takara, hello 3rd parties!

Takara's quality control lately hasn't been high enough to justify their increasing price tags for these figures. The trailer, which is likely to be mostly a hollow box doesn't justify a $100 premium over MP Beastwars Megatron. The fact that it is "official" has always been a huge selling point, but with 3rd party companies producing figures of comparable or better quality and design for half the price or less.. I wonder if 1st party toys are starting to become irrelevant at least for the high-end collector market. It isn't as if Takara is releasing toys based on NEW character designs, and 3rd party toy companies have shown they can do a lot of great things with the G1 character designs.

This is insane.
I'm lost for words.
If a third party group can produce a phenomenal g1 representation for just a little over $110 CAD HOW DO YOU JUSTIFY $585CAD????????
FOR THAT PRICE I SHOULD BUY ZETA TOYS BRUTICUS!
I have been extremely loyal to Takara Tomy since the 80's. I have to look at the overall expenses now as that amount of money is equivalent to typical monthly payment on a Subaru STi.
I think I've met my match and will focus on third party from now on. Or better still, I'm happy with my version of MP-10.

This has gotta be a typo $585 CAD??????? :HEADHURTS:
