    Glad for NA collectors they will finally have their Prime, with nice paint apps :thumb . Glad for me Prime V2 is coming... Not digging this design at all, I'll leave it at that.

    God, I really hope they release an EX version at the same time. For all the repaints that get released, nobody seems to do toy colored OP. Love this MP44 edit by @chchchch Screenshot_20210808-033015_Amazon Shopping.jpg 20210808_033245.jpg

    Looks very good to me, but I'll wait for an EX version anyway.

    Why did it
    NA did a pretty good toy deco for their Starscream and a passable toy deco Megatron and Soundwave, so you can bet they'll give it a try at least.

    Amazing! The double chest doesnt bother me that much although i want to see more of MS 2.0 Prime this is pretty much an instant buy for me.

    I wasn't into Legends until Newage turned up. Their Cosmos pulled me in and I now have a moderate Legends collection that's almost entirely NA. But I think this might be the first that I skip, as I find the double chest looks horrible from most angles. Such a shame, following their excellent Galvatron and Shockwave.

    Best way would be their Baidu I guess.

    I wasn't into legends until MS released their Powermaster OP/ Ginrai figure and showed their G1 OP V2.0. I have lost way too much time not collecting this scale!

    Lol thanks, I tried but it’s all in Chinese languages. Just think that this color scheme would be pretty cool as a variant and I’d actually buy this mold if they did in addition to ms v2. DB3B8682-04B5-4960-8ED8-25C584CBBBED.jpeg

    I think they will make several repaints of the mold if it sells well. You would have to make the most of it right?

    Well they never did the gold-chested Megatron either!

    The only proper ‘comic deco’ figure they produced was a Marvel US Megatron, with navy blue as a secondary colour in place of the black - but it was a prize giveaway, limited to only a handful of copies.

    Assuming we get a toy-colours Prime and a translucent Prime in addition to the regular release, I really can’t see them making a fourth red Prime. I mean, I’m a Brit who bought that comic when it came out, but even I would hesitate to buy an additional Prime figure based on his look in ‘Decepticon Dam-Busters’ - it’s not one of the most memorable adventures in the canon.

    That would be our resident photoshopper extraordinaire, @chchchch. He does amazing work.

    And yeah, it’s about time for a good toy inspired Prime.

    Probably a week or two before all repaints start showing up on Weibo. I hope the EX version is included; there was a year or so wait before Starscream and Prowl received their EX toy decos.

    And Cliffjumper and Bumblebee EX still hasn't been released or even teased.

    Happy to finally have high res photos of this guy. My criticisms:
    - The double chest looks bad from a certain top-down angle, but I don’t think it will be nearly as noticeable in person.
    - The lack of an extra head with the rounder features stinks.
    - I don’t want to sound like a broken record but I really wish the trailer was sold separately for all versions, it’s just big and uninteresting. Still holding out faint hope that they offer the “standard” colors a la carte at launch.

    Other than that, I’m really impressed and will definitely buy at least one version of this (even if I have to buy the dumb trailer), but Magic Square’s OP 2.0 is the first time their version has held my attention after an NA reveal.

    I mean there is a chance they make the repaint you want if enough people ask for it. I just hope you get what you want!
