I agree. As someone with over 25 years of Gunpla experience, DMK Prime was a great first step by Takara to move into Bandai's territory. I passed on him as I was waiting for some review (which turned out wasn't the best). But yes, I'd rather buy a MG gunpla kit over DMK Prime. I mean you can get a much more superior fully transformable MG kit (such as MG Delta Plus from Gundam Unicorn) at a lower price than DMK Prime, which IMHO should be priced like Bandai's 1/144 HGUC.
