Looks like the matrix can double as a cup holder in that position lol. It'd be cool if the removable fists of the original figure were hidden inside too, that's usually were people stored them!

For a moment there, this Prime cab didn't even have interiors as they used a dark-tinted windscreen. But you really got curious and well done getting a 2nd copy.

This reminds me of the easter egg on the original MP-01 Masterpiece Optimus Prime. Behind his facemask is a speaker for his mouth as it was depicted in the Marvel Comics run of the Transformers comics. Of course this was not an advertised feature. You had to break the faceplate to see the speaker.

There'll probably be repaints in the future in different colours or window designs. Probably designed so that in the future, translucent windows can show it. Either way, having that Matrix is super cool and clearly done by a fan.

I can already see the Nemesis Prime and Ultra Magnus recolors

[@jangleleg117]

Rivets are not like screws or bolts. It's like if you just put a peg in the hole and then squish it until it's too deformed to come back out. This means they are "permanent". But someone can always put new rivets in. I've just never done plastic rivets. Probably have to basically melt them in place. Interesting find! Nice vid

Funny how everyone jumped on the other one with the trailer only to find out it was not at 1/64 once this one was released.... 😂

[@RetroToyEscapades]

😮

[@Anth230]

@RetroToyEscapades 😂...yeah if you compare the one with the trailer the cab is only 2/3 the size of the mainline version. That is why Mattel only charges $6 retail for them. It was super small. 😂...

[@starby1243]

Oh wow that's a great discovery lol

You know, this makes me question where the Matrix ACTUALLY goes when in truck mode.

@@kibbo oh .. 😂. Sorry. I don't get excited like that about this stuff...

[@RetroActionUK]

I saw the rear lifting up as you showed it in the first part and now it makes sense!

What case is he in?

[@kopiadem8052]

Can the box container of Optimus Prime Track Fleet fit in this version?

[@bradwhite5884]

Probably not, I think this one was made to be mainline only, but love to see the comparison tbh

[@Anth230]

@@kopiadem8052 no. Plus This one is actually scaled at 1/6 the Track fleet is not 1/64. The Box would look way too small with this larger version.

[@daxbashir6232]

And why is the blue part made out of plastic and not die-cast? :/

[@starwarscollectingandhobbi5980]

I doubt Bumblebee has a surprise, but it's a $1 toy so I say bust him apart!!
