I would bite as the novelty appeals to me, but not at that price. At £40? Ok.

I didn't think it would last long, and I had to grab him, still to snag the Toxitron version to have the clean sweep for this mold.

I still lack the G2 flavour Optimus. It's never been on sale when I have spare pennies and I'm not paying £55 for it!

No, it's not a £55.00 toy, but again lets be fair none of the mainline TF's are actually value for money these days.

True. I very rarely buy new TF's at RRP as they aren't worth it.
I get much more value out of Lego or the occassional Hot Wheels and the odd He-Mans from time to time.

Am I right in thinking, the Laser Optimus Prime moulds have the most die-cast out of all of what I'd call 'Modern' figures?

I don't think the Legacy or original Laser Op have any die cast metal parts

They don't, other than screws.

The rarely use diecast on modern toys, and never in the standard retail lines, like Generations.

This may be old news, but I found the head kept popping off but was easily sorted with this fix here:

I saw the Target truck this is trying to replicate, yesterday. And the volvo mold is a much closer, if not exact match for the type of truck they use.
So I'm even more confused now as to why they used laser prime instead of volvo prime.
