    Default Ultimetal UM01 Optimus Prime

    Sure, it's expensive, but damn if that isn't the deadset nicest looking Optimus I've ever seen.

    This thing is just gorgeous.

    It's an incredibly tempting piece.

    I'm not impressed by it. I really don't see the point of owning a Transformer that doesn't transform

    If it could transform I'd consider getting it. As it is, it's just an upscaled detailed MP-10 with some light and sound gimmicks.
    Which brings us to where we are today...

    But look at it what it can do, and the beauty of the sculpt.

    You want it to transform? Fine, enjoy MP10, or even MP01.

    This is for a different market to the average TF, and I think it's got a LOT of appeal for that market.

    I'm glad we're getting products like this, and I REALLY hope this sells well enough to warrant more entries in the line. Even just a companion Megatron would be wonderful.

    I did, it is very nice. If it could transform and was more poseable I'd give it serious consideration.

    I do, quite regularly.

    Given the flaws of MP-5, a statue of Megatron would make a lot more sense. If people want to collect the Gentle Giant statues or Movie Masterpiece Optimus statue, I can respect that just fine. I however come from the line of thought that if it doesn't transform, then it's not a Transformer. But that's just my opinion, and a lot of other people's..

    I also don't own Fort Max or Metroplex on the basis that I don't really like centerpieces that are that large.

    It is very nice but I'm gonna back these 2^. It doesn't interest me because it doesn't transform.
