    I never realized I needed a DMK Prime collection until right now! This looks amazing. Give me a Starscream next. He was one of my favorite designs.

    Is it too much to ask it to be transformable? :p

    Maybe Unique Toys can do it. Theyre working some form of sorcery on their Lockdown and now AOE/TLK prime.

    I can understand the concept of highly detailed screen accurate bots that don't transform... but I won't buy one.

    Well this is all kinds of exciting - because I thought TFPrime had some very cool designs.

    Optimus V1 is a boring choice but inevitible (but I would bite on an Optimus V2), but I adore TFPrime Megatron, both the design and the character. It'd kinda break my heart to get a great one but it doesn't transform, but I'll get over it.

    And there are others I'd buy instantly too. Bulkhead, Ratchet, Knock Out, Dreadwing....

    That's awesome, though I wish it transformed. It almost looks like it could, but not quite. Still cool nonetheless.

    @StrangePlanet yeah I hope they do Megs as well. In my humble opinion - TF Prime Megatron is the best incarnation of his character ever. That design is incredible. Imagine how cool it would be if Tron Warrior does them in scale. Imagine a Dreadwing and Breakdown etc...wow the stuff dreams are made of
    This is my First Edition custom painted TF Prime Optimus. I think he goes pretty well with PX Vulcun - at least scale wise. Wish the Dinobots would have gotten into the show.
    At least we have the TF Prime Galvatrons Revenge project to look forward to!

    I didn't like fattymus prime 2.0 so their going with his original look is very much appreciated.

    I would love all the TFPrime characters...esp Soundwave, Wheeljack, Shockwave, Airachnid...heck I wouldn't even object to some of the RID2015 designs, like Strongarm or Bumblebee (even though that show was a major disappointment for me). I hope this is affordable so I can support this line.

    My sister still loves Bulkhead, so if they make one of him I'll scoop that up for her.

    There's not been too many photos of him shown, but this might help. He definitely looks quite posable. :) 

    I too would love Megs to go with him.

    Looks like his battle mask is an extra piece that tabs on so he probably has his mouth underneath.

    Need a Megatron and appropriately sized Star Sabers.

    Tron toys better survive to make more non-transformables. Their Ratchet looks bad, but Brawl and the new Bumblebee should be promising.

    This is a DMK figure so it does not transform

    I love it and I'd definitely get it, but it would be so great if it was a Chogokin figure.
