is it just me, or was the initial release of Combiners Optimus Prime by Hasbro was a hasty cashgrabbing method for them ?

I mean look at that standing pose, splitting it one hinge away makes it look too far away.

Also, the paintjob quality's going down day by day. I don't expect a premium paintjob for something within this price range, but still.

Also, anyone who have this figure and have done some repaintjobs, or tweaking to make it look better ? Would love to take some cues from it.

Man, good thing you weren't a pre-generals oldfag, huh?

Yes op this figure was a blatant cash grab pre mold for motormaster.
The funny thing is that it's going for a lot of money now. Sell it

>>5863171
Exactly how much is one of em selling for ?

You should browse the 3rd party tf often, and google seqrch for this op custom. The people in china have actually develop a set of custom parts for this particular version of optimus prime, and it actually looks really good.
>>
>>5863181
Upwards of $60.

>>5863148
Whatever reason, it compromised Motormaster way too much. Had Optimus been a retool of MM instead, it might not've been such a problem.
>>
>>5863181
MISB you'll probably get about 45
out of box, 20.
>>
>>5863407
wtf, why?
>>
>>5863148
Yeah, it was clearly done with Motormaster in mind but they released Prime first in hopes more people would buy it to get a first impression of the mold. If Motormaster was released first, Prime would probably shelfwarm- which the Battle Core version later kinda did.

You can see a similar tactic with Titans Return Sentinel Prime/Astrotrain, Stripes/Ravage, Alpha Bravo/Vortex

That's entirely subjective.
