    Sorry, but that size is a deal breaker, not worth the price.

    I do not know why I love this so much. Maybe it is the novelty, the paint job?

    A lot smaller than I thought it would. Thanks for the size comparison.

    You know guys, if you're anything like me, you are constantly running out of space for new transformers, and many have to be stored in boxes.

    What's wrong with a Disney Mickey Mouse transformer being small? I think the size fits the novelty-ishness of this item perfectly. How frigging damn big do you want Optimouse Prime to be anyway, you Disney nerds?

    As to the price, isn't every damn japanese import transformer expensive? And if it were bigger, wouldn't it be EVEN MORE DAMN EXPENSIVE? Just employing logic here. ;) 

    Personally, I think this toy rocks, and so does the black and white version - and if I can pick one up at Botcon or Comicon I will. :)

    I don't think it's an issue of it just being small, or an issue of it just being expensive. Rather, it's more of "it's expensive for what you're getting."

    It's understood that Japanese TFs are expensive. But most of the time, they're worth the pricepoint for whatever reason. Examples:
    - THS-02 Hybrid Style G1 Convoy: expensive AND small, but he came with a crapload of accessories and had a complex engineering for something of his size.
    - Alternity Convoy: expensive, and small-ish, but apparently has plenty of die-cast and again, pretty complex transformation.

    The Disnay Label Optimouse Prime is expensive and small, but doesn't come with many (any?) accessories, and looks rather simplistic in terms of transformation. That's why everyone's complaining: it's not that he's just expensive, it's that he just doesn't seem worth it at his price.

    I get that. I just don't understand the complaints about how small he is. Personally, I wish all transformers were smaller because I'm running out of room!!!

    I also don't necessarily think this guy needs any accessories. I think he's fine as is. If you want to really talk about "value". None of these import toys should cost as much as they do. It's really just about supply and demand. Such is life.

    Scout size? Damn, I want it but not at the price I'm probably going to have to pay.

    Damn, like most, I thought/hoped it'd be bigger. I still want it though!
