    I'm digging him, especially the head design.

    The silver one reminds me of Boombox though.

    Getting both. Unrelated, Convoy's expression looks a bit angry to me.

    I have to say

    The silver one is way better than the red one.

    I love the scale, but the price is way too high, for a deluxe sized bot. I wouldn't mind getting the red one, though. The silver one looks great in bot mode, but the car looks terrible in that color.

    Looks good. I may purchase it. But I'm not a big fan of the feet.

    Japanese toys ship in solid cases, i.e. each color variant ships in a case of its own. Retailers order the quantity of each that they want. No case assortments with figures packed in ratios.

    Unless you're one of those collectors who needs to have every version of Optimus Prime ever created, then I fail to see the appeal of a deluxe sized Prime who is now a die cast metal car that isn't very much distinguished from already existing deluxe sized Universe 2.0 autobots IMO.

    It's just not my thing I suppose. Pass.

    The Skyline is just a beautiful car in general (mainly the GT-R 34 V-Spec II), Convoy choosing the new style of the Skyline is a great idea!

    I will get both colors!

    i still want one. For me, the red wins. Silver just looks a little too plain.

    I have a question, will these be in Universe line or are they the larger sized ones? Its a silly question but the article didn't say.

    The red one looks nice, silver's okay. But pass. Alts, BTs, and the like no longer interest me. They had their time in the sun, time to move on to something else.
