2019 (Walmart) Gen1 reissue Optimus

[Sinnertwin]

$100.00 for just the cab?!?!?!?! I'll stick with my original Optimus.

But it's G1! G1!

But it's G1! G1!

So is mine

Now out in America (at Walmart) for US$50.

Lemme know when it's out at Robotkingdom...

For such a premium price ($50 compared to 14.97 USD for Rodimus on clearance) I kind of expected more - like a matrix from the New Years Prime, or a bio card.

They must be having a HUGE markup, and I will wait until on clearance. I can take the risk of missing out, as I really don't need an extra G1 prime. Maybe Takara will do one for the 35th anniversary of Prime this year?

Lack of trailer doesn’t bother me. The trailer would only of stayed in the box anyway. Just like my MP-10.

I’ll give you $18.75 for your unrequired MP trailer - I’ll even chuck in postage

[reillyd]

I take back everything I said. After watching a review there are mods, and he can ACTUALLY HOLD HIS RIFLE STRAIGHT.

So I am probably going to cave, and give him an old trailer. But not at $50us/100 Aud though

I'll go out on a limb & reckon it won't be AUD100 here. C'mon Cotton On.

I couldn’t resist and picked one up through eBay.

They dropped the ball big time with the packaging. It’s cheap and flimsy with a rougher texture. The 1st wave has nice glossy thick packaging. Man it’s so gut wrenching to see after such a positive start to the line.

The figure on the other hand is absolutely gorgeous.

I could go on about how good the figure is but the packaging is such s huge let down. I don’t understand why they’d change it.

That's a shame.

I didn't like the square corners on the first wave. Was happy to see they were rounded here... guess it's too expensive to give us both?
