    That would be excellent, especially if this guy ends up being he same height as black apple prime.

    I swear I just can’t get over this guy. It’s been a LONG time since I’ve looked at a figure and said “yep, that’s perfect, not a single problem”. The last time was probably DX9 La Hire, and before that I can’t even remember when it was. There is not a single thing for my nit-picky brain to complain about.

    Whoever designed this is EXTREMRLY talented.

    The elbow joints bother me, but they could be fixed by the final release

    Yes it is clearly an energon blade. You don’t need to have a reality check here don’t you?


    Yeah UT Peru Kill started the whole “third party can do anything” wave of figures.

    It seems you are the one who needs a Reality Check. Because you do not seem to realize that no 3rd Party Comp did that before.

    To get one more step further, I would even say...they "Refused" to add these Blades, EVEN it was a most demanded / Requested from Fans.

    Would it had really have HURT Toyworld and Unique Toys (Cost wise) to add 2 Small Energon Blades? And make their Primes even better?

    So this Designer is doing everything right.
    I thought the Knight Prime Wars is over,
    and yet here comes a new Challenger that wants to beat TW and UT.

    Huh? I never denied or questioned the existence of Energon Blades on this figure :lol 

    Plus UT and TW not adding energon blades is totally acceptable as they both have the arms from end of Aoe and TLK. It wasn’t even the most demanded accessory for either figures lol. What are you on about

    Agree. If not mistaken, there are no Energon blades used in AoE/TLK. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
    I won't display the TW knight with Energon blade if they come with it.

    He only had it for the pre knight upgrade and it got shredded by Galvatron I believe. It would be so badass if he still had it afterwards though. I hope there will be foldable wrist blade in the other arm. Left arm has energon blade like Aoe and right arm having wrist blade like Tlk.

    You are right. It shredded by Galvatron.
    I think your dream may come true as their render show there are foldable Energon blade on the right and a foldable wrist blade store inside left forearm.

    This prime has very nice features while still maintaining great accuracies. The only sacrifice I can see for now are the hinges. Hope articulation is good. They mentioned that it’s “super pose-able”




    Edit :
    Here’s a comparison between few prime figures and CGI ( i aligned the torso of the figures and the CGI instead of head to crotch )

    I am happy that this Designer Guy decided to give us Bumblebee and Prime with the best screen accurate sculpt as possible.

    I will prepare my Wallet for End 2021 then.
    I think he already said these will be Released End 2021. Maybe 2022.

    As long as it does not end up as another Toyworld Desaster with 3 Years+
    Waiting time, I am totally okay with the Release Goals.

    Not sure if that TMT Bee head had the “best screen accurate sculpt” :lol 
    TC did better in that regards.

    TMT did good in Prime tho

    Dunno why anyone is bothering with this. Clearly the TLK voyager from hasbro is the most perfect, so no one cares about the others!

    Tlk voyager is the most accurate, it is made by Hasbro/Takara.

    I used to think that figure will be the final definitive version for this prime design haha. Times have changed in a good way, atleast for transformer figures. Now we are nitpicking on little proportion issues and missing sculpt on the back :lol
