    MP, because ROTF isn't even out yet! You can plan to get that one later on this year.

    Do you have a Movie One Prime? Cause, in truck mode, they're pretty well identical, so you're losing a little fun value in that respect if you already have a movie Prime. Bot mode is eight shades of different, but is the price of a leader figure worth it for you for essentially only one new mode? I like the ROTF Prime, but I won't pick it up unless they put him in G1 colors, ala "First Strike" Voyager Prime from the first movie line or even better - throw some black on him and make him Nemesis Prime. That'd look way nice when combined with Jetfire.

    Which is another point. Do you like Leader Jetfire, or more specifically, the "Power Up" combo?

    For the poll I went with MP, cause I have him and love him. He is a little heavy and tends to have parts pop off (left foot and head cover in particular), but what TF doesn't have pieces pop off? I don't "play" with him as often as I do my Movie One Prime, but I do still love him.

    So...theres my thoughts. Good luck with your choice!

    Skip both and get Masterpiece Grimlock instead.

    Definitely Masterpiece Prime!

    I love the Prime from the first movie (it's definitely my favorite of the movie toys) but Masterpiece is so so so much better.
