It's perfectly fine if you dig the character design and especially if you missed out on or no longer have the original

If "G1 with knees" is wrong then I don't wanna be right. My mistake. It's been a while since I had my hands on an original Cybertron Optimus. Regardless, the Siege remould had faux windows everywhere and it bugged me. Nova sidesteps that issue entirely with his remoulded parts.

Thing is, I like Kingdom UM too. Like... Commander UM is a pass for me because I'm happy with the Kingdom version. It seems like everyone wants something different for Magnus. For some people he has to be a functional car carrier. For others he needs to have the inner robot and the armour...

I've attempted to remove pins before and I've succeeded now and then, but it's been a disaster more times than not. And while Nova isn't a hard to come by exclusive he's still an exclusive, so I'd rather not risk it. Especially on a figure I've been waiting sixteen years for. Besides I don't...

So this is late but why not? I feel like talking about it. In 2007 Nova Prime debuted in the comics. And everything about him- from being one of Optimus' predecessors to being a Prime gone bad to just his character design being awesome- made me want a toy of him. FP's offering just didn't do...

I saw a lot of angst about the KP Autotropper head because it's KP, and Animated's far more beloved but between the KP Autotropper head just looking better and the mould itself being far more G1 then Animated... it just made sense

The only one I'm super tempted on is the Cheetor/Waspinator set. That Waspinator deco is VERY tempting. The Waspinator/Starscream set is also nice but will probably be a bit too pricey for what's a one episode situation. The rest are excellently deco'd but not to the extent I feel like I...

It's a Diaclone reference iirc

The bravest choices require the strongest souls.

Love the Decepitcon badge on Waspinator.

Soundwave is a must-have. Shockwave's deco is interesting enough I'm gonna bite. Shame it's ER Megs though. It's the inferior option and the Siege mould is begging for a clean paint job.

I've got the original one and I'm gonna have to see some side by sides before committing to this new one

It's 2023 and our leaks are still grainy stock images with Japanese text stamped on top of them 😂

If I had my way the options would include bits to try and turn the thighs and shoulders white, as options to differentiate the "base" colour layout, maybe some options for different tail fin designs.

It would make the two JP 'Cons look more like a team and make the dinosaur mode look more like a 90s toy, which is only a good thing in my book.

Also fun fact- it's a holdover from an earlier version of the script. The original book- and first draft of the movie script- had Hammond as a callous businessman. Him screwing over Nedry and that leading to Nedry screwing over the park and causing the disaster was Hammond's hubris coming back...
