    I'd say it's a safe bet that they'll be making a Megatron. I don't think they'd start this War Within back up 13 years later and only make Prime

    They are similar in height but some reason in person Grimlock still feels noticeably shorter; he feels fine sizewize next to Leader Jetfire and AOE Optimus though.

    Looks great! Is there a demand for this? I'm tempted because that was a good comic series, and I love Optimus Prime figures. I will have to wait and see on this one however.

    No thanks. Already got a War Within figure. He only cost me $14.99 and Best of all he's called Optimus on his box.

    Now I want a new WFC Optimus in the same size to go with it. I know there's an oversized KO out there but it's got the same compromises the smaller figure had.

    The titanium figure I feel is still excellent and looks great (also one of my favorite official figures) so I not see any need for this. Good for those who missed out of the official one I guess, but this one is gonna cost a whole lot more.

    Good looking detail, but not a fan of the proportions. Skinny him up a bit, then we can talk.

    Not sure why it needs to be so large but it certainly looks nice, good to see some love for war within still around.

    I had really hoped Takara would have been more into this after the fan vote. They seem stuck on G1 though. There are just too many designes from other series that are begging to be done in Masterpiece that the third party treatment is likely the only way we will ever see it.

    Maan, they have the Dreamwave aesthetic down, and they made it look nice, too.

    Well, that front grill is hinged for it. Hopefully it will use the standard MP10 design sizing like Citizen Stack and MP Ultra Magnus did.

    I hope it's a little smaller than MP-08.
    Will go well with TW Orion.
    I have no need for this in an MP display.

    Love the design and will definitely get. Glad there's decent designers doing heroic robots out there as apposed to some of the recent old men bots we've been seeing.
