Coming back to this Vid... I recently spent about 240 in total for PM-44s (the new Toy Deco version of MP-44) Prime and I can confidently say he is 100% worth it, easily one of my favorite transformers I've ever bought shockingly and I would of never thought that. Looks incredible, crazy intricate transformation, and though feeling delicate, at the same time a very hefty feel! And the paint aps and color are fantastic. Now for Earth Rise Prime, they have a Pre-Order out for him in the Legacy United line and I'm very much looking forward to him since I never owned the original ER Prime and I've heard he's still incredible, so looking forward to that! And can't wait to see what SS 86 Commander Prime is gonna be like, 100% getting him. Oh, you may want to take a peek at Yolo Parks new insane ROTB Prime that's coming soon I believe. I think it's gonna be around $3,000 but let's just say, if I could, I would.
@obsessivefanboy76 ай бұрын
I'm with ya. The Earthrise Optimus is actually the better value (though imo should've been at least a $35 toy) whereas the MP44 was so overly engineered and all the accessories was an obvious attempt to artificially jack up the price. Def NOT worth the $500-600!!

I agree with you. I honestly can't afford Masterpiece figures and even if I could, I wouldn't use all the accessories of one. My Optimus has a gun and a matrix in his chest, the trailer is a bonus. The figure you have ($50 Earthrise one) is my 2nd favorite Optimus figure. It is only second to the Armada Optimus that recently released. Holy cow, if you thought you loved your $50 one, this guy is double that and justifies his price nicely. He has a gun, matrix, and trailer. With a twist. He can combine with his trailer to become an even larger robot, which is called his Super Mode. Great video. I think you and I agree on what makes a good figure. It doesn't gotta be complex. Just make a toy that looks good and is fun to play with. I'm an adult and if you think I only display my figures, you are sorely mistaken.

Personally I think the Earthrise Prime is a much better value than the MP44 one. For $50 you get a figure that’s extremely identical to the MP10 Prime, cartoon accurate, has excellent articulation with openable hands (excluding ab crunches), openable chest with the matrix, easy transformation, and comes with his trailer. Now the trailer doesn’t look that much appealing but you can get an upgrade kit for $30 which will make it $80. But that’s still an extreme difference compared to the $600 MP44 version which looks amazing and has a ton of accessories, but a rather difficult and complicated transformation. While that’s an amazing figure, I think the Earthrise Optimus Prime has so much for $50 and is a much better value overall

While MP-44 looks amazing in Robot mode, the Truck mode isn't all that impressive. I actually prefer MP-10 which costed about 150$, it's the same size and has amazing articulation and look amazing. the 50$ prime doesn't really look that good, but I certainly wouldn't buy MP-44 (maybe a KO of it).

@@papermelon I'm not the OP but I definitely agree with you that anyone that says the original first G1 TV show is the best is probably seeing things through a little bit of rose tinted glasses. It's nostalgic for me even though it technically came before my time because my first ever Transformers toys were inherited hand me down G1 toys. With that said however, the original television show lead us to the original animated Transformers: The Movie from the late 80s that suddenly had this crazy high budget, amazing animation, and an emotional adult storyline (with just the right amount of intentional campiness) that certainly sent a lot of children home sobbing. I think that first movie holds up incredibly well and is my favorite piece of Transformers media. We wouldn't have had it without the original G1 tv show so I give it props even if it doesn't quite hold up like the movie does. I must admit though I wanted to shout when you were disregarding all the features from Optimus Prime as being from some shitty episode you didn't watch so I understand OP's need to defend it. Lol. Also, sorry for randomly pinging a five month old comment. I just found your channel while searching for stuff to find a jumping off point to get back into Transformers and I have been watching a lot.
