OK? I don't get it. Someone explain please

[Sir Prime A Lot]

This is already out. I don't understand.

This is a repaint with a white gorilla face and chest hair.

Oh, I think I get it. Each of the early Beast Wars toys had an alternate "monster" face. That's what we're looking at, an optional monster face. That and this version's slight repaint suggest to me it's intended to be more accurate to the original toy whereas the original optimus mp is meant to channel the cg animation.

That hurts. If I had known, I would have skipped MP-32 for this more complete version.

OK that makes sense. Skipping it along with all other BW MP's (unless they eventually make a TM Megatron) but thank you very much for the explanation

That's a mace. Not a flail.

In addition To the beast head, this deco is exactly like the original released toy. As opposed to the show accurate MP 32 that was released.


Personally, I like the show accurate version, but I wouldn't mind showcasing the MP38 next to the original. I would mind paying full price, however.

Called the color scheme.

The toy mutant head is a nice touch, but not one I'll ever use.
