Prime 1 Studio is teasing the next figure in their incredible Museum Masterline Series… the robotic samurai Drift! This line features extraordinarily detailed, CGI accurate statues of your favorite characters from the Transformers movies.
They have posted a teaser image on their Facebook page with a full reveal scheduled for the upcoming Wonder Festival 2015 in Japan.

Nice details throughout (as Prime 1 always deliver), of course, but I don't understand why they chose to give him such a huge base. It's just overkill.
Also, his pose leaves much to be desired. I realize that the other statues are very reserved in pose, but he almost seems like
he's just calmly directing traffic. Just…boring.
And admittedly, even though I personally love Japanese culture and samurai armor design, there's something about Drift that seems as far away from
Transformer-ish as possible. Like Michael Bay just decided that he wanted a samurai in his movie. Again, beautiful workmanship in the statue, though!

Is that Drift's penis?

Awesome, but no joints = no buy from me. That and Drift has the WORST movie design yet.

Drift looks phenomenal.
As always not interested in owning but very nice.
Moy
Cool, not a fan but still nice.
Sentinel
Sideshow distributes these and they offer a payment plan. Also BBTS has them usually for a slight discount.
Optimus Prime
I don't usually go for non-transforming Transformers, but I'd definitely consider this; I love Drift's movie design. Hopefully there'll be a payment plan…
SpinalCord
Do they just take the CGI model from Paramount, pose it, and then cast a mold from that? Is that the process behind some of these statues?
Sentinel
$1,800 – $2,300 depending on the character. These are super high-end collectibles.

how much do these usually go for?
Chopperface
Oh God yes.
Decepticons
Beautiful.

Stick it in me!

Would rather have an IDW version of Drift. He is a much more compelling character anyday.

He's one of my favorite characters now.

Even though I can't work out Drift's design, he turned out better than I'd have expected. He had some awesome moments (his fight with KSI drones) as well as some funny ones ("Aargh! I kill you!").
