    I have no Prime train experience to compare, but I can tell you that I like my PP01 so much that I went and preordered the Nemesis version yesterday.

    if you get knight morpher, maybe you'll get really lucky and actually get all his parts. They should have just gone ahead and labeled his hands as special chase accessories. or variants.

    Why limit yourself? Get both! :D 

    Besides, it's an impossible question. How do you chose between two equally awesome toys?

    I really like my PP01 and I'm thinking about getting PP01B, plus PP01B will have the updated joints.

    Get the one that isn't just a downsized knock off of an official toy.

    I got all of mine and I dare say I'm not in the minority ;-)

    KMC is a unique mold. Faith leader is just a mini-MP. No contest in my opinion.

    I'd go for the train. Not only is it not a copy of another toy, but it's a transforming STEAM ENGINE! How many of those have been made as toys? I count a couple of Micromasters, a Go-Bot, some old 80s toy with a friction motor and Sasuraiger.

    I might pick one up at Botcon, actually, if the price is right.

    Definately KMC.
    The whole "Faith Leader fits with alts better" is a bunch of bull IMO. MP prime fits the best with them. He was always head and shoulders above the rest in the comics, show, and every where else. Why shrink him down and pull him that far out of scale?
    Granted, the MP seekers alt modes don't fit in scale, but their BOT mode does, and the MP's weren't designed to have alt modes in scale anyways......../Rant

    but yeah, get KMC......

    I wonder if any of the people poking at one of these two figures actually has both to compare?

    Isn't the Takara MP Nemesis Prime at least $60 more than the PP01B? ..and come with the wrong logo molded into his shoulder?

    I think they both look like cool figures, but the "just a downsized MP" PP01B is a downsized version of maybe the best TF mold ever made. For me it is.

    Like to correct you on this.

    There is no Takara MP Nemesis Prime. I think the one you are referring to is the MP Black Convoy.
    Yes, it is Convoy, repainted in Black hues, so the Autobot faction insignia is the right one.
