Meh.
This is not for me but I think beast wars DESERVES the recognition in the MP line and especially in an anniversary year.
I have noted before I have never watched the show so can't offer an opinion but the legacy it has left says it all. I won't be buying them personally but surely they could produce 2 or 3 MPs for the legion of fans
Yeah, ya never know unless ya try, and good on TakaraTOMY for at least having a go. :) At the end of the day we all vote with our wallets, and if enough people buy this toy it will encourage TakaraTOMY to make more. :D While the majority of BW toys were fantastic, there are a select handful of figures that were more questionable and are probably in dire need of an improved update.
Bring on MP Powerhug/Retrax! ;)
This is kind of like me wanting an MP Galaxy Convoy... the original is so generally received as a good figure its hard to improve, in Galaxy Convoy/s case the only thing I can see them doing is maybe make him a bit bigger, ankle tilts, wrist articulation and more balance in Super Mode. Optimus Primal all they need to do is make him bigger, more accurate weapons and a non-faceplated head.
I think it looks awesome and will deff be adding to my Masterpiece collection
What's the best place to import MPs from for us Aussie fans?
I'm a huge BW fan it's what brought me back to TFs. But I'm rather a little disappointed with this even if it's only a render.
The upper arms still look like the original toy.
The butt flap is silly and those feet. Looks like his feet have grown extra limbs or something. It just looks off to me.
I'm going to wait for shots of the prototype cause this render is not really doing Primal justice.
I get all my MPs from HLJ. If you want the collector coin go Robotkingdom. If you want a local supplier I think many are going with Premium Collectibles.Quote:

I think if you're complaining about this being not much of an update from the original toy, you're missing the whole point of this being a Masterpiece altogether. Like some people would even say, MP Star Saber wasn't much of the update to the G1 toy either. If you've owned G1 Star Saber you know they're right. But does it stop the Japanese fans from loving this Masterpiece figure to death?
Just my 2 cents.:D
