    I'm prejudiced but I'll say it anyway : MP10 ; because I think it's an absolute beauty and I don't like DIA Commander at all.

    I said MP10,simply because of peace of mind,with MP10 you are pretty much guaranteed if it breaks or something you can return it,but with DIA you are not sure.I suggest getting MP10 since he looks so cooler than DIA.

    Honestly, when has Prime ever looked like DIA Commander? He hasn't. DIA Commander is Ultra Magnus' pre-transformers colors, he only "goes with" Optimus Prime because there isn't an official Blue Magnus to put in there (though there is an Unofficial one).

    Get MP-10. If you really can't get over DIA Commander I'll sell you my KO cheap.

    Im surprised this is even a question lol. I say MP-10 hands down. I dont own the UM with the CC parts , but IMO , I dont think its that impressive. Hopefully TT will give us the perfect UM in the MP line.....it would be nice to see something new an totally different after all.

    I have both and it's only my D.I.A. commander that I'm looking to sell. So you should buy it from me.

    My personal opinion would be that you should at some point get Henkei Prime and the G3 trailer. If you wanted DIA Commander I would either custom paint or commission a blue Classics Prime cos the DIA Commander is really meant to be the Diaclone version of Ultra Magnus. If you don't have a City Commander I would recommend getting that at some point as well as Classics Magnus if you don't already have one.

    So for me I'd say MP-10 just cos I don't see much point in the DIA Commander unless you want a "Classics Diaclone Powered Convoy". I really like what I've seen of MP-10, I wasn't all that interested in the Masterpiece line before, but I kind of really want MP-10. But you gotta do what's going to make you happy.

    In all fairness, City Commander doesn't look that much like UM either. If I was to show you that pic of him without ever telling you who he was, you may guess UM, but probably only because of the shoulders. Other then that, he doesn't really scream UM.

    Having said that, MP10.

    I think Dia is great -- an important part of Transformers history!

    Neither. I don't need another G1 styled Optimus Prime. The money can be spent on other areas.

    Get the DIA. You will have 10 more years to pick up MP-10.

    Judging by how many MP-10s are sitting around on stock everywhere, I'd go with DIA. Can always save money for MP-10 later on, and/or wait for the (guaranteed cheaper) Hasbro release.
