Does that mean you don't like it pinny? I'm kinda loving it. Despite earlier reservations, it all seems to be coming together. Right now. Over me.
Sorry. Carried away there.

No, I mean he looks rather splendid and absolutely a Masterpiece. When you look at Ironhide's proportions, Hot Rod's chest and, admittedly not really a Takara problem but, Shockwave's size, it makes you think there is someone there who knows what they're doing, but they ain't being let loose on the figures that count. Even in photos you can see that Prime has had ten times the thought put into it that the other recent releases have had.
I'm just getting a little irritated with Takara that the MP line no longer caters for the toy as well as cartoon audience, yet this Prime really does manage both well. Just like Sideswipe, Prowl, Optimus did. It *can* be done right, but the recent G1 figures aren't doing what this Prime does. Seeing a figure this good looking just highlights how poor the others have been in comparison recently.

Ah, yes. Then we are in agreement on this. :-)

I had my original Ultra off the shelf the other day and I can't see anything on the new toy which is definitively better.

A piece on it was cracked out the box. I'm scared to transform it.

£62, so lets assume it will be closer to £87 with customs + postage

So probably just best to order from Kapow, or somewhere on these shores.

ID Toys are only asking £69.99. Still not quite sure how they're doing that so cheaply.

Post by Philip Ayres on Apr 7, 2016 18:44:16 GMT
Well HLJ want £63 for it so I assume ID Toys have found a similarly priced source and a good bulk shipping deal!
I thought their prices speculatively high when I looked when I preordered Groove from there. £60 for Leaders Op & Blaster? That's a "Let's put up a listing and take the money cos nobody else has"

TFS Express normally get the coins, so I assume they'll get the 'hammer' too.
(Hammer in athletics is the ball/chain)

I just don't see the point of this one, sorry. The original still holds up just fine.
