If this is just a white reimage of Optimus I'm not a fan, but if it will have the proper outfitting as displayed in the poster behind it, it will be AWESOME!

I wanted to get Ultimetal Prime but all the pre-sales of him here in HK sold out (his presale price was HK$4500). I haven't seen or heard of anyone who has actually received theirs though and the posters are still up here advertising it as coming soon.

Having said that, if I threw down that kind of money on one Optimus my HUSBAND would probably go nuts at me. There's a HK$8000 Optimus I would LOVE to get over in In's Point... he wasn't amused when I showed it to him (although he knew I was showing him in jest rather than seriously NEEDING to buy it). He appreciates my obsession, but he doesn't think I should spend more than AU$150-$200 for the high end stuff (and I only have a yearly budget for my TF purchases that Ultimetal would eat into significantly). There is also the issue of where I would put such a beauty given we live in a shoebox apartment... dreams are free though right?
