And why would they need to? With Kingdom out, scaling to that would be more profitable

 

because the rest is MP scale so why shouldnt this one be aswell

 

You know... for people who bought their BWM line and want another figure to match that collection.

Having a line that scales well with one another and fit the same aesthetic increases the value of a brand. It also builds a fan base.

Is that really hard to understand?

My guess is they want this scale out fast to go with Kingdom. Mainline CHUG sales are a flash in the pan. They need to capitalize on the success of Kingdom now.

I'm guessing they'll announce an MP scaled OP at a later date. The MP line is long-lived and most of us will still be interested later.

 

Releasing it in two scales would be an interesting approach!
There’s clearly a demand for OpOp in MP size to go with their TM Cheetor and Primal.

Personally I want it in the originally announced scale to go with my OG/CHUG season 2/3 collection.

 

Every time I read any of your comments, I hear them in Rhinox's voice !

 

Releasing this in CHUG for Kingdom at all let alone at the end is terrible timing, doing the MP for their current line first and announcing the CHUG downscale after the Wave 1 Legacy Dragon Megs announcement might have been more palatable if 2 scales is indeed the case. You don't see many CHUG scale 3rd Party figures for a reason.

 

It's confirmed that this release is going with the original scale, not the MP scale.

 

That’s a relief. Looking forward to seeing more pics.

Hope he’ll eventually be released at the bigger scale as well, for those that want him to go with their MP collection.

 

I'm honored. Rhinox is just the best!

He's both a scientist and a spiritual guru. What's not to love?  

 

Just to add in another voice, the day they release this in MP scale is the day I buy it.

 

Literally the only reason I canceled my pre-order

 

Optimal optimus my favorite optimus primal incarnation

 

hmmm, if this doesn't at least approximate scale with JJ Dragon Megs, I'm out. Guess I'll put my hopes on that KO upscaled PE Gorira.

 

But even the upscale is still too small.

 

It's up to Takara HASLAB now...

 

Maybe. But there's no guarantee of anything bigger. If the paint is good, it'll work for me!

 

I seriously doubt Haslab will make a figure just so we can have it scale properly with a 3rd party Dragon Megatron.

 

Not so much. Actually, it almost fits.

 

any updates on that guy?

 

Nope.
