Wow, that looks gorgeous! Shame it doesn't transform! It's a testament to Takara engineering that the MP practically looks like that and still transforms!

What's the scale of that thing anyway? Not familiar with the Roadbuster sizing.

 

It's 5.2 inches tall. So it's Deluxe-Sized and it doesn't transform either.

A company called Art Storm is making it..

 

Wow, that Optimus Prime is pretty huge then - more than a foot tall by my estimates!

 

I was just about to criticize harshly when I see that it's remote controlled. That's pretty cool, cause if it wasn't remote controlled, I'd say that this is a shitter version of MP-01/04.

 

44cm? That's 17.33 inches! And it's made by action toys? They're the same guys who prototype the figures for fewture's high end ex-gokin line. This thing is going to be beyond $500 for sure anything less and I'd be surprised. Which reminds me, I need an MP-10.

 

That might actually be the best looking G1 Prime "figure" I've personally have seen and with it being roughly 17" tall, it'd be perfect to keep with my Premium Format figures 

 

Here is a pic from the front:



The thing looks like the best possible combination of MP-01 and MP-10.

Being Art Storm it will be pricy but awesome.

 

Except for the transformation part and the trailer  

 

It's neat, but I'm not paying for a giant non-transforming Transformer.

 

That is gorgeous, and the features it packs sound really fun.

However, it just makes me appreciate even more what has been achieved with MP10.

 

I actually think MP10 looks better. It's lovely to see a huge die-cast Prime of course, but for all intents and purposes it just strikes me as largely redundant.

 

^that.
Although I would buy an mp10-scaled actionmaster G1 Megs. Hi transformations are ridiculous.

 

It's not redundant actually.

This is more for the high end collectors who collects such Gokin stuff like Fewture.

 

but what about the knuckle-dragging mouth-breathers like me?

 

Well if you want die-cast there's always the 'ol MP-1 Convoy...lol  

 

Who would want a non-transforming Transformer? It's just an Actionmaster on roids.

 

Another pic, you can see promo pics of the half naked Prime (like the Chogokin DX Mazinger).

 

That looks sweet but considering Fewture's Gokin line where figures can range from $350-$600 just judging by the size this won't be cheap at all. Still it's very reminiscent of Bandai's DX Mazinger in concept. I'm fine with it not-transforming, I honestly transform my figures once or twice and that's it. The price is a gonna be on the high side but if your used to collecting SOC's, Brave Gokins, or any other high-end diecast Japanese toys it's nothing new.

 

If they also did G1 Megatron with that aesthetic I would get both in an instant. Megs would finally have the kick ass imposing representation it deserves. I really don’t care for him transforming into a gun and I have enough Primes that can turn into trucks.

Really hope this one sells out and they consider Megs.
