choices and desicions...

hi guys
i plan on buying masterpiece optimus prime, but can quite decide which to buy. i'm willing to pay extra as the mp is an awesome piece of work. the thing is i'm not sure if i want the trailer or not, since i will only be displaying prime in robot mode. i hope u guys can give inputs on which to buy. ok here we go...

1) cab only or cab + trailer

2) if cab only : mp01 or 20th (i don't like dvd)
if cab + trailer : mp04 or mp01+ trailer or 20th+trailer


thanx a lot people

I got the 20th anniversary. I don't care about the short stacks as much as I care about the correctly colored rifle.

Unless you really like diecast, go for the 20th Prime instead of MP Convoy. You can always order a set of longer stacks, which are quite easy to install. If you're only gonna display Prime in robot mode, there's no sense in getting a trailer. It'd just take up space.

MP01 Convoy has long smokestacks, grey rifle, is die-cast, and a cleaner paint job.

20th Prime has short stacks, black rifle, is also die-cast and has a battle worn paint job, more burn applications.

Otherwise they're quite similar.
Time for a change...

The dvd edition of Prime has no "battle damage." It's clean.
