    So they kept the gas tanks that fold out of his legs but they also put flaps on his forearms to cover the gap that the gas tanks are meant to fill in alt mode? Why?

    Not bad looking overall. I really like the ER design and thought it was only a few steps removed from being an MP level design. Sadly they didn't take those steps, keeping the wheels on his back and the stupid 5mm ports on his smokestacks. Reengineering the lower legs is nice but now they're full of unsightly screw holes. I think this would make really good custom fodder but as it is, none of my MP Primes are in danger of being replaced.

    Now if they upsized SS-86 Hot Rod, I would heartlessly kick my MP28 to the curb in a second. Especially if they fixed the coloring on some of those yellow parts.

    Cool, thank you for sharing! Is it just me (or maybe the picture quality), but is ER Optimus have way less surface detail when compared to Siege Optimus.

    This is closer to what MP-44 should have looked like. A nice, clean design that's cartoon accurate without being utterly devoid of any interesting details.

    other than the 5mm ports on the exhaust not being removed, and the gas tank being hidden in truck mode !????? and that wierd ass panel on the arm that serves no real purpose...

    looks like I'm buying another OS Prime to add to my extensive Prime ensemble.


    but definately going to need to do some mods to perfect the figure for sure !!

    does this have a name ATM ?? and which company is it being made by ??

    Look like an Over-oversize KO, Transfans said it's gonna be 30 cm around the same size as MPP-10.
    Can't wait for Lewin Resources to get their hands on it, Then it's gonna be OOOSKO.

    The weird symbol on the head is biggest issue. I will never pay for something like this.

    Being too big brings out its simplicity. I'll save my money for the KO of MPM BB Prime if there is one.

    Yeah that's way too big. I just wanted a slight bump up.

    Apparently the goal was to keep both Hasbro and customers away.
