Re: 25th Anniversary Optimus Prime on Sale at Toys "R" Us

Hm, very very tempting... But should I still splash out for a Takara release?

Re: 25th Anniversary Optimus Prime on Sale at Toys "R" Us

I just snagged a G1 Prime knockoff that looks pretty damn good. The only reason why I might get this now is to do some kitbashing. Decisions, decisions....

Ah well, we all knew that TRU would take a bath on one of Hasbro's biggest mistakes.

Re: 25th Anniversary Optimus Prime on Sale at Toys "R" Us

The price is right so I'm probably going to pick one up this weekend. Not worried about them being sold out beforehand though, as I recall MANY on the shelves. However, this is most likely going to spiral into a purchase of HA Bumblebee and who knows what else.

I wouldn't take him at any price, it's an awful release and should be bought by no one.

Re: 25th Anniversary Optimus Prime on Sale at Toys "R" Us

I'm grabbing a set because I don't own any G1 Primes and this seems to be the cheapest way to get one of these guys so whatever.

That might be the only reason to get this Prime. I'm sure if scrounge around online you might find replacement stacks so at least he can look somewhat right.

I kind of feel the same way as I personally grew up with the rarer Canadian G1 Prime that had the metal plates in the trailer, gray roller and gray missiles etc...

On this one, the colours are off. Then theirs the smoke stacks and the long missiles vs short and then the blue roller vs gray. If it were the other way around I'd defiantly buy it thou as it would be more true to the original.

It's still too expensive for this horrible reissue.
