    Got this on an impulse today. Couldn't disagree more with the OP - I absolutely love it. I'm really looking forward to any repaint
    I'm really just here for the free food and open bar.

    To be honest the only real criticism I can level at it is the lack of a gun - I wish it had come with the double barreled laser gun that the G2 version had.

    When I get this guy he's getting my spare Classics Deluxe Optimus gun. Just makes sense. But it may just tempt me to buy the original G2 Laser Optimus Prime.

    ...Or Rather the Japanese Battle Convoy re-release.

    I'd say that might be a better option. As I said before, the whole appeal of Classicsverse to me is to see old G1/G2 toys 'updated' and improved using contemporary toy technology, but I'm not sure how much of an improvement this toy is over its original G2 counterpart. Cos Laser Optimus Prime is honestly one of the greatest Optimus Prime toys ever made. And the reissue has chrome!

    I'll bring my Laser Prime to the Parra Fair and compare it with Vector Prime's RtS G2 Prime - take some photos and do a quick comparative review to see whether or not it's a worthwhile toy. Does anyone here already have both G2 Laser Prime and RtS G2 Prime? (cos if so, maybe they could go ahead and take some pics and do a comparative review first)

    I like that I can put him in a "BY THE POWER OF GRAYSKULL" pose. I don't know why I like that, because I don't really like Masters of the Universe.

    You can do the same with the G2 Laser Prime mould too.

    Pretty much my thoughts as soon as I saw pics online. Looks like one for the G2 fans and that's about it

    I no longer have a loose version of this toy (only a MOSC one which I will not be opening), so therefore I won't be able to bring it to the fair for you to do your comparison.

    That's awesome!

    As much as I detest this toy, no, that's not what I did, I gave it to my nephew so he could trash it.
