More excited about this than Ironhide.
Particularly happy how they've alluded to more than one Beast Wars Masterpiece. :)

What? I own a version of the character and said Optimal Optimus might be worth a shot so it's not like I'm a Beast Wars hater. It's like Kurdt said - they should concentrate in finishing one line first - in this case the 400 or so G1 figures left to go ;)Quote:

I wish the spent the time and resources on a G1 decepticon instead of that, it looks like a king Kong Sofubi! :rolleyes:
Nah. I'm thinking Masterpiece should expand into other eras. For instance, who, in their right mind, doesn't want a MP Super-Pants Prime? Imo that is what should have won the fan vote ;) Maybe they should throw in an Animorph or 2...Quote:

Watched Beast Wars but not really been a fan of the series...but at least it is Optimus Primal they are doing but if next year they keep on getting these i am not sure how i feel when i pull a rat out of an MP box :D
If it looks good as a robot, I might be in. If it's not, then I'm out. The original animation model is just too weird and plain for me to care, if the image is anything to go by.
Sorry Trev, G1 Masterpieces peaked at Soundwave, it's about time they moved onto a Transformers iteration with... a little more bite. ;):pQuote:

Like many I've seen express, I'm blown away by the clear aim to be accurate to the original Mainframe Entertainment 3d Models - The teams that worked on that show must be elated on such a different level to we fans, not to mention Garry Chalk finally getting a Masterpiece figure! :cool:
I CANNOT wait to preorder MP Gorilla/Beast Convoy, aka Optimus Primal, and can only imagine that Verno, Firestorm, Gutsman & others are just as psyched as myself to see an MP (Beast) Megatron get shown at some point! :D:D:D
Skipping this for me even at 4,000jpy
Hear, hear!Quote:
