iGear IG-PP01 Mini Masterpiece Optimus Prime

Well, looks like BBTS will not carry this at all. Someone on Seibertron contacted them and asked. Their answer was no.

[Cheers Ian]

Oooo.

Hasbro is not going to like this. I thought they said in a certain interview that they like some third party stuff like accessories because it's not infringing any copyrights but some of the stuff is starting to cross the line.

I'm pretty sure this p*sses all over the line.

Cheers!

There's always Ultimate Battle Prime. I think Robot Masters Convoy is also bigger than THS-02, but admittedly not by much.

ya those primes are so so for me. After seeing them in person it didn't do much for me for some reason. I know the molds of the ones you mentions are similar to THS-02 but feels lacking in primeness if you know wat i mean.

That would mean no FP Protector kit. Unless you found a retailer outside of North America, but it might not be as cheap as the NA retailers.

So far, I honestly think Hasbro was turning a blind eye towards this stuff, because it was something new, and they didn't have to spend the resources on it. But now that iGear is really KOing their stuff, I don't see them letting it pass.

So far, iGear's is KOing this MP Prime, the Sharkitcons, and the MP Trailer. Also, they'll eventually announce the mini Classics Prime and the mini MP Megatron.

By the way, I had a couple sources tell me iGear was behind these mini Prime KOs weeks ago. But they said to expect iGear to release them under a different name, so people wouldn't know it was them. It seems iGears wants people to think their half involved, as the name implies their only partners in it. My same sources have also said before, they were behind the KO City/Shadow Commander KOs.

very well said, i am happy i have never gave i-gear a cent, and i never will, koing things is not a good idea

I want.. but I'll have to wait sometime before getting it.

Has anyone inquired about the price of this? I think anyone should take caution if they would really want to buy from them since you might not get any of your money back.

I think it took over half a year for people to get their money back for the Masterpiece Ultra Magnus armor pre-order deposit, you might not be so lucky this time around.

LMAO.

You might as well get a loose complete Hasbro Masterpiece prime for that price or even cheaper.
