    I'm really really hoping BBTS gets this guy in this week plus I'll have money for him by the end of the week too. This is going to be more fun putting him together then a Kre-o.


    Now see thats the one thing that disappoints me about the Revoltech Optimus Prime is that he only comes with one sword and not two like the dual model kit.

    PS it doesn't get any better than this. At least it's only 1/10th the price of Slideshow Collectible (almost)?

    Holy crap, it's the same size at leader prime? Now I don't mind the price tag so much!

    Depends on how good you are at building model kits.

    Cannot wait for mine to arrive. Each pic I see is stunning.

    EDIT - That drunken fella on Youtube with the frankly awe inspiring mastery of our fair language has a few videos up. I'd link it but there are children present.. :drunk

    I'm vaguely saddened that the model isn't as tall as the leader figure, but only a smidge. I still can't wait for this to show up so I can put it together and repaint it. So.. Much.. Awesomeness.......... Must. Paint..

    Well in that picture the DMK has its knees bent a little more than the Leader class figure and it is in a more wide legged stance, so perhaps they're about the same height when standing straight.

    Just got my shipping notice from AmiAmi this morning. :D  Now I'm going to need to go pick up a new pair of nippers and some x-acto blades.

    Order this guy from AmiAmi while you still can! XD I just did!

    That said, I've never owned a movie Optimus before, so this is my first. The only other movie Primes I've ever been interested in are Buster Prime (evilBay prices make me cry; maybe I can find him in Japan while I'm over there) and Revoltech Prime (definite buy for me too to go with the Model Kit).

    If you guys go to this part of that Japanese review he has a much better comparison of the Dual model kit and the leader class prime. The Dual model kit is still slightly and I mean ever so slightly shorter than the leader class rotf prime. maybe half and inch or less.

    I wonder if the swords are the same size as those on ROTF Battle Blades Prime?

    If so, I may be making a switcheroo.
