    It looks....nice. But I absolutely prefer the previous release. That green Prime I considered getting just for being so absolutely different and green. This I will only buy if I see it for very, very, very cheap so I can sell it with profit that I can use to buy something I want.

    No, but G1 Prime is a lot better known and therefor interesting for an exclusive.

    And if it were Primal I had to buy it (esp the green one), so I'm saving lots of money here :)

    I just don't see the appeal of these ugly G1 Prime Knock-offs

    These aren't KOs :p 

    They're official product, but offered as a tie up toy to a Japanese clothing brand.

    Im glad so many people dislike this guy, maybe it will give me an opportunity to buy a second one cheap co I can have one opened for display. Still I think there will be a high demand with low supply, so my fingers are crossed that my preorder from RK will go through.

    Agreed. This grey version just gives the feeling that Bape is captializing on the popularity of the green version and coming out with another one to satisfy demand. But green seems kind of unique. Black/Grey versions of toys however, are pretty common variations.

    Grey is OK, but I do prefer the green version.

    This looks cool, and different and all, but $200.00?? Why?

    I want one, but, I'll wait and see if the price comes down. If it doesn't, it's no big deal. I already have 3 of the mold. 4 if you count Ultra Magnus.
