    So is that a regular sized masterpiece or around the same size as the Faith Leader?

    EDIT: I assume Faith Leader sized based on the picture on the left.

    I agree, but these are gonna be really, really tough to pass on, as long as the price isn't $200.

    Whoa there iGear - you're using official Transformers artwork in your advertisement/solicitation thing.

    Enh. I don't think this is as far past the line as the mini-MP Primes.

    Yeah, but that's geewun!

    He's exactly the same size as the official MP seekers by the looks of it. I have MP Starscream, Thundercracker and Skywarp next to iGear's Prime on a shelf at home.

    I'd always assumed that Takara would get to these eventually but they really are taking too long, drip-feeding us new MPs once every year or two. I for one want new MPs now and iGear are filling that void.

    So I assume it's a given that they plan on making all three coneheads by the silhouettes.

    That was really bad too. But that was smaller, and actually took quite a bit of work on their part. This? they're mostly making an exact reproduction of hasbro's own figure, with new wings, head, and accessory. 90+% of it is an exact-size recasting of MP starscream's mold. and they're advertising it using official art.

    and how's this going to effect hasbro and takara-tomy if by chance they intended on doing this very thing somewhere down the line? it's kind of sabotaged.

    Now it's official that they are a knock-off company and not a 3rd party support company. They can't deny it any longer.

    Some of us don't care. :p 

    Also, and I hate to say it, but for me personally: this news is better than any of the news that came from BotCon!

    i do, mini-optimus PISSED ME OFF, and, while i want this, it gonna take every bone in my body to resist it, it is a masterpiece figure i wanted badly, but this is NOT ok, this is gona kill any CHANCE for an actual masterpiece figure, because you know everyone is gonna get this and pass on any masterpiece dirge takara or hasbro throws out there unless it is significantly cheaper, which means money is lost

    This is a knock off company with delusions of grandeur.
