    Die cast bananas? That's brilliant! Wonder if they'll be painted yellow.

    We got a skull mace in a banana box. These bananas should come in a skull mace box!

    Cool. So TFSource says there's a collectors coin too? Unfortunately I've already got one pre-ordered straight from Japan which comes with nothing. Hopefully I can find somewhere I can to pre-order a second one with both the coin and bananas? Kind of kill two birds with one stone.

    The banana is such a genius move

    It's likely just the bananas. As they've moved away from doing coins and include either a mini-figure or some other kind of accessory instead.

    TFSource probably just puts that by default until they know what the Hasbro Asia exclusive is.

    Ah, that would be a shame. All these dumb collectors coins over the years and when we finally get a BW MP, no coin? I would love a coin with just a Maximal logo on one side and Predacon on the other.

    I think Delta Magnus was the last to have one. Since then it's either some other kind of accessory or mini-figure.

    I'm loving the idea behind this but I just find myself wanting the first version more.

    I thought the repaint looked nice then I saw the price and choked - I could easily buy a 3rd party Megatron for that.

    I hope this Beast Wars II version of Optimus Primal sells successfully so that Takara will produce a Masterpiece Lio Convoy to go with him!

    doesn't this officially answer the question of what the peg on primal's back is for?

    Would have been nice to have a collector's coin that doubled as the golden disk included with a BW MP figure.

    Your post is done out of context. You might want to quote or add a premise...

    The post is for Gen Rattrap to attach to. I believe an actual TT magazine photoshoot showed it. It's just being reused for a weapon mount. Unlike the peg hole for the mutant mask, the weapon rack on the back isn't from any Primal figure or from the show. Everything on the main figure is in some way related to a scene or ability from either the toys or TV show.
