Toy Review - JP 2010 Primus

[kurdt_the_goat]

I did say before that you'd want to like more than just the tribute value for it to be worth it, so i'm not saying you're wrong to not want it.

I guess it was my mistake for thinking you were more keen on the toy itself than you are that's all.

Well I am not sure about wanting the toy to begin with and tribute value would be the only thing that would entice me to get it but IMO it's lacking here.

I hope we understand each other now.

For now...

Ya know, for the robot mode to have truly G1-accurate colours, you'd need to have it entirely gold (like this) - and I'm not sure if that'd be a good look.

I'm still not convinced that this repaint is significantly different enough for people who already own the original version to get it again. I've noticed several people who own Armada and/or Energon Unicron are picking up 2010 Unicron - it's not something I've done, but considering that it is a retool and more G1-accurate repaint, I can see why people have done it. I wonder how many people who already own the original Primus are racing out to get 2010 Primus too.

I dunno... if I found 2010 Primus cheap enough (like, really cheap) I might consider getting it so I can display it in Cybertron mode (I think it does look better in planet mode compared to the original) - but otherwise I could live without it.

Does anyone know the cheapest place to get a Primus, shipped to Australia?

in my opinion - a group order from robot kingdom.

at the moment, you're guaranteed to get at least $0.95US for the dollar through paypal, so if there are enough people willing to do a big order from RK, the shipping should be kept pretty low.

its only $89.95US +$20-30 shipping, so you should be able to get it for under $130AU

That is good. Maybe I should look into making my first-ever purchase from Robot Kingdom...
