Statue Prime 1 Studio - Optimus Prime

Re: Prime 1 studio - Optimus Prime (official pictures page 1)

Are any of the parts constructed of metal or is this a resin/polystone piece?

Also, has it been confirmed whether or not the tires are made of rubber?

Don't worry if it's not rubber i'm sure someone will mod it after it comes out. Then we can all say it should have been like that from the start. Win win

I actually hope that it's not rubber. I would be very concerned with the condition of the rubber in a few years on a $2,400+ piece.

Yeah good point. I saw the dome on the HT ED-209. I was lucky that mine was fine, but i live in the uk and it does nothing but rain, so heat wasn't a problem.

A 100% metal piece would be an absolute dream piece,but imagine the weight

That price is confirmed?

It's priced at $2300 in Indonesia... I think the shotgun would look better for Megatron...

Have any of the other previous movie Prime statues included any rubber parts? Notably the sideshow version...where the tyres not rubber? I wouldn't mind if they were on the Prime 1 version...

Nice spot bro its attention to detail like this that is reflected in the asking price I guess

Still down for this piece, all the way, no matter what! Gotta have it.

Re: Prime 1 studio - Optimus Prime (official pictures page 1)

Yeah the attention to detail is spot-on, really it is Prime, well, his mini-me version at least.

I'm glad the tyres are not rubber, like others have said it will not hold up well 10 years down the line. A piece like this really needs to be built to last so all Polystone is best. Plastics make me nervous that they'll discolour in light or warp in heat.

Guys, I've decided that I'm gonna have to pass on Prime 1's Optimus Prime...why?

That's because they've learned from others mistakes.
Bravo Prime 1!
