Still, awesome.

We already heard that it will be $100 and will come in November and Christmas time.

Is it just me or is this trailer using the dreaded flat gray color scheme?

As I recall, that was a rumored foreign price.
Blitz.
I'd buy that for a dollar

I'm so glad they went with a large clear case for this. I already have the Takara version, so this makes me more inclined to get it and keep it MIP. It's going to display great, and feeds my Prime addiction.

Oh Yeah I can't wait for this mean mothertrucker.

Nice!

Rock and Roller, you mean. Suck it, Masterpiece Convoy with Trailer collectors. This guy's all complete, all US, all the time.
Ribieconvoy
Can't wait for this! The blue looks less vibrant here, although it's probably just the lighting. In any case, it looks great!

The inside of the trailer is grey, but the outside is painted. Or that's how it was at Botcon, at least.

Looks like the exterior is painted silver, but the interior is left unpainted. You can really see it in this pic:

$100 bucks for this? Great price for what looks to be a great figure. Sure he's smaller than the original MP... but seeing the improvements in both modes... gotta say it seems worth it.

Robotkingdom.com lists him as 179.90...
Gilgamesh
I see a nice shade of red on him. People were saying he was a pinkish red before.

Yes, but on the initial Facebook post, they said he'd probably be cheaper in North America than what they're selling him for.

I thought the booth at botcon had it listed at $99.99...but in my search for pictures from the showcase at the con have turned up fruitless. It was the price I'd be going off of in my head the last couple of months.

Just hope he is not the piece of crap that Rodimus was, quality issues were big.
Rijie78
Hm, that looks good. Might be a Hasbro MP I pick up over a Takara one..
Shatterpoint
I find the lack of pics...disturbing.

I ended up buying the Takara Rodimus. Supposedly the US release fixed some of the issues, but I had several parts missing, and one panel on the leg that broke the first time I tried to move it at all.
Rodimus Mike
You got to be kidding me,MP Optimus Prime is getting a wide release.I am so Pumped about that,since ToysRUs generally tend to be higher on there exclusives.I am so gonna own atleast 2 of these,maybe a 3rd just to mod it and make a Nemesis Prime (oh and btw,I can't stand the name Scourge for Primes counterpart,the name belongs with the G1 Sweeps Leader)
JamesBenjamin
The price quoted at Btocon was $100 Canadian. So we were assuming slightly less than that in the US. However, it is a TRU exclusive, so...

So, his smokestacks haven't been trimmed for US release? Can it be true, or are they going to display that and sell the crap trimmed stacks at retail?
Sai

The smokestacks can collapse, so it should release as is and still meet safety standards.
pulsedragon20
Can't wait to pick this up!

Considering Robot Kingdom has this version to sell for the middle of July, I doubt the US release will be as late as November.
Exodus
Very nice, switching out my anniversary one for this guy!
Powersa
Not listed on TRU.com as one of SDCC exclusives unlike others
Autobot X
It looks like the eyes are painted. If so, that's cool because reviews I've watched of Takara's version appeared to have very dark eyes.
orangeitis
I love how in this pic, it's like Optimus is just looking at Hot Rod and teasing him with the matrix.



"YEAH THAT'S RIGHT YOU WANNABE! YO MAMMA HAD MORE CARS IN HER THAN A THREE-C BODY SHOP, BITCH!"
deaculpa
ahh, i can finally start toy hunting again (e.g., kicking little kids out the way at TRU).

Botcon pics made his face look unpainted. Not the case here, which makes me very happy.
Shizuka
He's sexy and he knows it.
emoo
Can't wait to pick this up.
naldopr
this is my most wanted toy, I hope he is o more than $100 I want 2 of them,
Gilgamesh
Wait, so is he a store exclusive or not?

Because not being one would greatly increase his chances of him showing up here.
charsdc2
This guy is bad ass!
Bountyan
I'm going to have a headache trying to find this if the availability is anything like the previous MPs
Grimmjow
Why is there no MSRP or release date? That's what I'm mainly concerned about.

This will probably be addressed at the panel, right? Which is . . . when? (I honestly don't know).

Oh, that's probably true...I guess I'm just impatient.

TF2005 Staff: Please stop putting the watermarks across the faces of figures. I can see that not all are like that, but enough are that it's annoying. This is something that is 100% under your control if these are pictures taken by 2005 staffers at the event. I keep it 2005 for all my TF news, but honestly, let's keep it quality. I appreciate the lengths you go to in order to provide the best TF news coverage around, but don't kill yourself in the last 10 yards of the race. Thanks for all that you do get right.
