Enjoy!























































Do you want more images of the newly revealed MPM 04 Optimus Prime? Here are many more and what makes these extra special is that you finally see him properly transformed. These are all provided by Notrab on Weibo. We can finally see how different this is to the ROTF Leader mold, especially when looking at the backpack which is completely compressed for this figure to look like the CG model at all angles.Enjoy!

I busted out ROTF Leader Prime, 2010 Leader Starscream and Battle Ops Bumblebee after some years in storage to see if they still held up and I was pleasantly surprised. If this is basically ROTF Prime but tweaked, I'd be delighted.



That said, I hope that the US release uses a warm gray or metallic gray plastic for the appropriate parts, rather than the ugly cheap gray plastic they've been using recently. Posted by Diem on April 28th, 2017 @ 9:04am CDT

By the time the movie's 50th anniversary rolls around, do you think we'll have a new figure that perfectly replicates the CGI...including the transformation? Might have to pick this up...but I must resist...!!By the time the movie's 50th anniversary rolls around, do you think we'll have a new figure thatreplicates the CGI...including the transformation?

And does Transfomrers have the potential to be a brand that exists for 75 years or so? And still making toys? The only other brand I can think of that never stopped is Barbie but thats only 58 years old. And does Transfomrers have the potential to be a brand that exists for 75 years or so?

Hot Wheels will be turning 50 next year, and Radio Flyer (if you consider what they make, toys) is 100 years old and still going.



Beyond that yeah who knows whether Hasbro will still be making toys 40 or 50 years from now.

Yes they'll still be around and toy technology will advanced so much that they could reproduce any of the movie designs 100% accurately as a toy being able to transform in all the various ways they do in the movies and that fluid too. And all controlled by your mind! :O





Are Bee and Prime the first proper movie Masterpiece figures? I mean the previous ones were just redecoes of existing figures, right? I'm just very tempted by these but am put off by the quality control issues the G1 Masterpiece figures tend to have, most recently on the new Megatron.

My biggest take away from this is how impressive the ROTF figure is. I have certain expectation for MP figures vs standard retail figures.



The thing that puzzles me the most about the MPM OP is why is the alt mode based on the his appearance in the older films and not the current truck they are using? Posted by carytheone on April 28th, 2017 @ 12:03pm CDT

It's his 'classic' look? The MPM Bee is based on the 2007 movie model too. It's his 'classic' look? The MPM Bee is based on the 2007 movie model too. Posted by Carnivius_Prime on April 28th, 2017 @ 12:19pm CDT

Because its celebrating 10 years of Movies. It's not an actual TLK release, but a 10 Year anniversary thing. So it goes for the original iconic look of the character, not its most current one.



It's like MP-01 and 10 celebrating Prime's iconic G1 look, and not its then current look. Because its celebrating 10 years of Movies. It's not an actual TLK release, but a 10 Year anniversary thing.
