    He's not over the water dude I'm not that crazy. Just shot at an angle that disguises my hand holding him and the railing.

    I know. I'll take one for the team and let you guys know if it's worth it. Technically it's $55.

    Hm.. I've never heard of figureprime.com, but I'm surprised to see somebody has this toy in stock for a decent price.

    Anyone know if they're a legit site?

    I finally mustered enough courage to transform this monsterous beast!

    No breaks or QC issues, and I did it in 30 minutes without the instructions. The most troublesome aspect was getting the rear fenders into place. I did have to use @PrimeVsPrime helpful video for that part!

    In terms of accuracy, Black Apple Optimus is levels beyond any other transformable Optimus Prime, but his Transformation is also less smooth and more complex than MB 17 Prime. Overall, I'd recommend BA Prime but they're also 2 different sizes/scales so you should get one which fits with your other figures better

    I have both, get both! MB17 is a classic from the times when the official stuff was very good (it also has plenty of ratchet joints!!!!!). Black Apple's version of MPM-4 is the best in terms of engineering and accuracy, but it lacks ratchets in some areas, which make him a bit flopply...

    I don't know it, but I am quite sure the BA certainly is.

    Why do you keep asking us? What do YOU want in a figure? Which looks better to YOU? We can only say our opinions.
