Meh, even so, I don't mind so much since I'm otherwise done with movie toys. The $10 price hike doesn't hurt so bad when you're only buying the one, after all.

I'm an Optimus guy. I have a half-height billy full of his various incarnations, selected for a number of reasons: sentimental (MP1, Cybertron Leader Op), display presence (PE Leonidas, MPM-4), fun factor (TLK Voyager Op, LG-EX God Ginrai), hell, even feel (Toyworld Primorion - it's a brick in truck mode, but in a really good way!). tfwiki says Studio Series Op is kind of a combo of AoE Evasion Mode Optimus (which I have, great toy) and Prime FE Op (don't own but read good things), so it sounds like it'll be a fun toy and therefore have a place on my shelf.
And even if I'm wrong and it sucks, I can just try to sell it off eventually. Maybe I'll lose a few bucks along the way, but I've committed myself to not worrying about always getting the absolute best deals possible. That just adds stress to this hobby, and I'm just in it to have fun.
