TBF, Balt has a history of handling figs too roughly. It wouldn't constantly fall to pieces like that if he didn't yank on the bloody thing like he's trying to open a packet of crisps.

This is the reason why I just can't hate the SS one. It is severely lacking on the finish, but they really pushed the budget to it's limit with it, specially being a big deluxe with a lot of articulation

The hands look like Thrilling 30 Orion Pax. Interesting to call him Optimus Prime and then also label the figure that the hands came from.

Great review!! I found this guy at Target yesterday and bought him on a whim. Shockingly, I really like it! I didn't realise there was also a studio series version until watchinmg youtube today. I might get that too, but the colours on this one are much nicer IMO. On my copy, the only things which so far popped off when transforming were the smolestack - which I didn't realise were supposed to also be guns until I saw your review! Anyway, this is a teeny tiny fun little toy. I like it!
@Solar_eclipse053 ай бұрын
It’s cool to have a smaller version because now it can be modded to be a Orion pax for your studio series prime.

Amazon doesn’t use a person to set their prices and instead have an AI do that and it analyses products and how popular their are, how many they have and other factors that artificially jack up the price to more then what the product is worth. So I recommend waiting a little and then check on it when the prices have calmed down.
