    Everything looks amazing except the abs and head size, the comparison with the CGI illustrates just how shrunken his head is.

    I'm not advocating for a larger head.,tho that enlarged one was funny. All I need is,a,sculpt that's a bit wider, and more proportional.with some cleaner details.

    What if he just needs his head a little less sunken? His entire head/neck assembly and the shoulder platform it sits on needs to be raised up higher

    So a mechanism that expands the neck in robot mode is what we need?

    I agree. I think the small head and chest gap are really the only things holding me back at this point. They seem minor, but they’re really distracting for me. Even the chest gap I can get over if the head was better scaled. So if someone can solve that issue, I’ll bite

    Ye bmb and mpp10 look perfect next to each other. I have both them atm flanked by WJ commander and WJ OS ss figures. Its a pretty sweet line up. But that TW bb op is looking to take a place with tw knight prime flanking instead. Gonna look so fukn good. I do wish i had the space there for all 6 tho...
    Sorry about poor phone quality.

    I waited for this for so long, the one and only Optimus to end my bayverse Optimus. But nowadays, I'm not sure if it will be the one.

    I wasn't satisfied with mpm04 for his back, same for LS03. Also LS03's torso looked so big for me. And all Optimus had this bit off head for some reason...

    And this. This one has a best possible back that I'll ever see for a transforming Optimus and that is a big thing. That was why I'm waiting for it. But yet...I don't know.

    I'll probably gonna buy this, but not sure if I can stick with it.

    I do appreciate they actually nailed both mode, but...I'm not even sure of what I'm complaining about, and I'm not demanding a perfect, cgi accurate Optimus while being able to transform, but there is something I want them to be.

    Exactly my sentiment with the LS-03 back then.

    I bought it. Found the extra stuff they did to be impressive for its time. But the size...

    Seen the actual figure today, looks like the shoulder panels can be adjusted lower so that might make it look better i think? it definitely looks better in person, even the abs don't protrude that much.

    If the neck/ head could be raised up a bit more it'd be perfect. Hopeful that lowering the shoulders can compensate.

    Yeah after mulling over it some, I think I’m gonna pass on this. It looks so beautiful, but I just can’t get over how tiny the head looks and chest gap still annoys me too.
    And now with Toyworld’s breathtaking BB Prime high on my priority list, I’d rather have that one.

    If a 4th party head or WJ replacement head comes along to make it look better, that can change my tune. But as of now, I will merely guide others to a treasure I cannot possess

    Solely for the purpose of demonstrating that there’s hope since such upgrades do exist. But yeah like I said I guess it’s more of a face upgrade
