    OP is 20 cm Megs is listed as 20.3 cm, so not a huge amount.

    Yeah, as far as relative size this is about what I expected. Prime tends to be slightly shorter than Megatron.

    Steelcore and his siblings need a big brother. Get on it, MMC!

    Maybe they just undercut them, knowing they'll make the money up with the 4 dollar flat rate shipping.

    Or maybe they just undercut them because they could.

    Yeah the artwork is wrong. I was just thinking the forearm swivel would be fine but the lines wouldn't match up. Good eyes lol

    BOOM! Almost never clicked pre-order this fast, haha. Now I wait for him to ship from PSX sooner or later.

    Would be perfect if they did that and/or put out their IDW Roller to complement.

    There will be a bonus for sure, and if you can get that 103 price through your credit card, even better.

    I also remember something about that but it’s been so long I don’t remember if it was official or a theory.

    It will be nice to finally have an OP in my collection. Has an MMC pre-order through PSX ever sold out?

    Does anyone know if PSX charges when you place the pre-order or when it ships out?

    Yes for both. Also note, that on PSX, once the pre-order period is finished, they'll be charging for shipping cost.

    Sorry if this comparison was already made but I LOVE the hands on this. They remind me of Astrobots Apollo's hands. I just had to preorder on BBTS (scratch that changed my preorder to Planet Steel Express as its cheaper) as soon as I saw it was up.
