Selling (trading?) my Masterpiece Optimus Prime

This is a shame that you're getting rid of it, I have this figure and absolutely adore it! Easily in my top 5 of best figures ever made!

Haha, yeah I know right? They're those phones business people carry around with them. I never wanted to be "Hipster" or anything like that by not having an iPhone, I just liked the Blackberry's better. But as time is going on, I simply can't find any accessories for even the newest of the Blackberry's. Superior device, horrible accessory structure.

The FE Bulkhead is heads and tails better then the RID version.

Nice collection!

Other than the obvious Spider-Man origin panels featuring Uncle Ben's death. This is in my opinion the most definitive moment in Peter Parker/Spider-Man's life.

I am actually in the early stages of starting up a Transformers Podcast of my own!

If you're willing to do all the start up work, and all I have to do is lend my voice and knowledge then I'd totally be up for it!

My knowledge base dates back to the very start of the franchise. I'm a collector of their toys, comics and play the video games! I've seen all the tv shows / movies and... unfortunately have the entire 1986 animated movie memorized word for word.

Some people may have a bigger toy collection, and that's fine. But I have lived Transformers since day 1.

Props go to the Redditor mslack for hooking me up in my time of need with this site;

If you're comfortable enough with downloading Torrents then it's a piece of cake!

I'd have to say MP-11, after checking out the other options I can't say that I like the colour of MP-03 at all, and the iGear submission seems... I don't know... to cartoony?

I too am considering the purchase of a Masterpiece Starscream, an the Coronation add-on makes MP-11 a no brainer for me.

Thanks for asking this question, I look forward to seeing other peoples thoughts.

If it isn't an "Out of the Box" Heroes Of Cybertron figure, then what might I be able to get that would work similarly aside from the World's Smallest Transformers figure?

dlaughy · 26 days

I went to the CrazyDevy site and looked for a way to contact them but found nothing. They use this same figure for a lot of promotional shots, I am starting to assume that they just created the figure. I mean they obviously have the ability to do such things, why not?

dlaughy · 27 days

Yeah, I agree this does look like the 'Heroes of Cybertron' figure, but I don't understand... is it poseable? I get that the head joint might be altered, but are the arms, legs, and waist able to move? Also, every eBay auction I can find for a new one of these has one hand and an energon axe for the other. Is the second hand and the gun accessories?

Well with Hasbro axing all 3rd party merch at Botcon I wonder if they'll have the same reach at TFcon? The 3rd party merch is one of the main reasons I go!

yakk0 · 28 days

I too would love to be there, but alas I must settle for TFcon, the Canadian half-assed substitute for us Canucks held in Toronto.

Oh right! Our Humvee is basically a Jeep with the roof cut off, so I'm pretty sure we have a few of those, because the government can get them at any used car lot, and convert them with a saws-all.

Our jets are mainly used for airshows around the world. Non-combat public display stunt military aircraft, such a very Canadian idea.

As a Transformers fan from literally day 1, I can say that I appreciate the Michael Bay movies for what they are... Summer Blockbusters! All three of these movies were created to hit a wide audience and make a shittonne of money, so Achievement Unlocked and Trophy Received!

The best any of us will ever get to a G1 actuate Transformers feature length motion picture came out in 1986, and that's because it's part of the G1 storyline! If Michael Bay were to tell a G1 actuate story nobody but us would understand the fucking thing, that that unfortunately doesn't translate into box office dollars.

We watch the new movies and look for the Easter Eggs that only hardcore fans like us will notice, and be flattered that the writers put those special nods in there for us.

I too am constantly arguing with people about comic book based movies, and especially these Michael Bay Transformers movies. There is so much history to draw from, and storylines to work with that they can't possibly fit everything into a 2hr movie, or even a trilogy.

Be happy that we get something!

Retiring the Dinobots seems like exactly something Hasbro would do.

"Say, let's not use some of our most favorite characters ever again. Okay? Instead, let's just produce a few more repaints of Bumblebee! Kids like Bumblebee!"

Stupid Hasbro!!! You guys have an archive full of characters to use in all facets of everything Transformers. Why do we keep seeing the same ten characters used over and over again?

Now people know what our one helicopter looks like!

Nobody better post a picture of our Tank or our Boat. If that happens then all of our Military secrets will have been revealed.

Very well done! I've never worked on any of my figures, but have often thought about it. After seeing the Prime episode featuring Nemesis Prime, I figured I'd go grab a Voyager figure and paint it up. Then I come to my senses and realize that I would just ruin it, and frustrate myself to no end.

Thoughly enjoyed this episode! I agree with brandon926b that when the Starscreams confronted Megatron I figured he'd kill one or two quickly and the others would "become" Skywarp & Thundercracker.

The only small issue I had with this episode was the Insecticons. In the battle with Megatron, one Insecticon seemingly took forever to kill, and these ones were dropping like flies (Pun intended!).

Absolutely made up for last episode!
