$2,000ā¦ for THAT?! And i thought MP-44ās price was a rip-off.
Saw that vid the other day. Statues arenāt my cup of tea, but I get why people like them.
it brings up an interesting debate. Is it still a Transformer if it canāt transform?
Has anyone seen SIEGE Ratchet at their local Walgreens?
Iāve been looking since Halloween 2019 and Iāve havenāt seen him at all.
I was able to find the Brainstorm and clone 2 pack easily in the last few years but this one is eluding me lol.
I have looked for it randomly. I donāt have any intent to get it, but just like to see whatās out there. If I find it, Iāll let you know.
Rumor: Bumblebee 2 and Beast Wars films in development!
Do you still need him? I swear Iāve seen him nearby, but just havenāt cared enough to pick him up.
Is there any list of actually excellent BotBots? There are so many and yet so few seem to be great.
Whoa. Youāre alive.
For real. Wild Preppy was spotted. Let me find my Pokeball.
OK, verified that heās still at the local Walgreens. I hid him behind some Shockwaves just in case you were still looking. 
I think I asked this some time ago but I donāt remember what suggestions I got.
What are some budget G1 Optimus Prime(or alt colors like ultra magnus or nemesis, quite like the shattered glass version honestly, am fine without the trailer) toys comparable to MP level of articulation and accuracy? Online bidding sites seem to have some prebuilt MPās, but I donāt know if they are Chinese counterfeits or not, and I wouldnāt want to get any recent shipment from China right now.
With the official molds.
Budget Friendly = KO
The only MP figures that are sub MSRP are the Takara seekers. Most others have pretty much held their value.
That said, for Prime, you have two third party options. Magic Square MS-01 and Transform Element TE-01. One of my favorite TF reviewers did a comparison between the two.
Personally, if I was to choose, I think the MS figure does it better overall. There is a metallic version so that may fit your fancy. The TE figure looks off. The sculpt reminds me of those PVC transformers you find in Walmart.
I do think both MS and TE have color variants of Prime.
At the end of the day, Takaraās MP-44 is where itās at though. The difference between MP-10 and MP-44 is staggering.
Whoa, even third party ones are expensive even if they are made in China. Any option for sub $80?
Hi Preppy,
Sorry for not writing back earlier. I actually made arrangements with a guy from my area to get one Iām good. But thanks anyway!
$130 for something like the MagicSquare version is far preferable to Takaraās own release which tips the scales at over $400.
Want a ābudgetā Masterpeice Prime? The Power of the Primes Optimus release was really Good for a mainline prime. I have this guy and heās pretty neat.
The MS figure is personally the best option if you are going for MP but would like a more updated look at Prime. POTP is a solid figure on its own, I just wish it didnāt have so much gray.
Mach Kick would be proud!
Oversized MP Cheetor Repaint (Tigatron) and Arcee are coming!
This is the year of the rat. How is it that Rattrap wasnāt on deck.
