    Lucky for you this is one of the only characters that can legitimately sit on either faction's shelf.

    Thinking about putting up a third floating shelf specifically for Sentinel, DOTM Megs, and BA Prime to all fight it out.

    Just got him today and so far no QC issues after transforming him to and from alt mode once.

    The shield is so big it could be its own figure:

    "Storage" for the gun which is pretty much just wedging it between the torso and the wheel:

    That's a good shot with a modified BA Prime. I might be sold.

    As far as the other discussion....
    I think that an MPM Sentinel Prime would be on par with this. Meaning that there would be trade-offs. We know for sure that an mpm would be undersized and underpainted. Hasbro also likes to use the wrong color for MPM's. It also wouldn't have individual articulation for the fingers and the head would be on a double swivel instead of a ball joint. The alt mode will be severely underpainted and could be the wrong model altogether.

    I will say that MPM's, for the most part, get the silhouette right. MPM's also do a decent job of putting vehicle kibble in the right place. I think the legitimate MPM Sentinel will cost just as much as this KO ($120-130).

    I agree. I would love an MPM version of Sentinel but it might be quite a bit of wait for Hasbro and/or other 3rd parties to do one. If Hasbro does an MPM then I would also have to wait for 3rd party to KO it and do a better job at paint apps/minor improvements.

    An MPM style of this guy would most likely mean more detailed parts and transformation which would be great. But for the time, this satisfy my need for a Sentinel to go with BA/BMB Optimus.

    I've seen some people already repainting and modifying this piece to look like the prime 1 on instaram.

    The windows come out easily by unscrewing one screw. Then used any clear plastic and cut it to the same size. I used some clear plastic trays that come with any figures. Re-insert and viola :)
