Statue Prime 1 Studio - Optimus Prime

[Jofiguer]

I'm fine with the light up features already announced.
But light features on the weapons would be awesome.

Yeah they do !!

Does anyone feel megatron has a little more of a personality going on then prime because of the pose they have him in ???

Yes. Megatron face has an angry face, while Prime is just normal face (He is often like that in the movie)

I'm on the waiting list for Optimus Prime EX, if I was to go ahead and flex pay a Optimus Prime Regular and down the road my wait list converts, do you think SS would allow me to transfer all my payments to the EX and cancel the regular one without losing the NRD?

Although I guess Optimus Prime regular will be around for awhile with a 2000 ES.

They say they will do it . My personal experience though , my waitlists have a habit of converting over the weekend and by the time they open on Monday my order is already in for processing so we couldn't stop the charge to the card . Happened to my Batman PF . The others I didn't have a regular on flex but most likely would have gone through the same scenario imo. When do your WL convert?

It is funny you say that as I spoke to their customer service a while ago and asked what happens if my WL converts on a Friday and they said since no one works on the weekend, the NRD won't get charged. From your experience, sounds like it is an automatic process. Did you get your NRD refunded? I'm assuming the answer is no.

Correct. It was too late . So now whenever I wait list I factor in full payment .

Thanks for the heads up, makes me re-think my current WLs that I have paired with reg flex payments.

No worries. I avoid the pairing now. Another example is Vader 1/6. My flex on the regular finished and item shipped with WL still waiting. So if it converts now I will have to decide to cancel or not. So lesson learnt. Pick one and stick with it. Thats my motto going forward.

I'll just keep an eye on the regular edition, if it look like it's going to sell out I'll just order the regular one and cancel the wait list of the EX. I figure with 2000 ES and a price tag of $2300 I don't think the regular edition will sell out that fast.

I'm in the same situation , and they told me over email that they will transfer my regular NRD to my ex if it converts.

They should always allow that. It ensures that they make a sale or at least take a NRD.

New pictures just posted on prime1's facebook page!!

Not everyone has seen them.

I think they are new if you compare em to the originals that came out, plus that's what it said 'prime1 added 6 new photos to their album' bout an hour ago.

the large gun pose photo is different. different lighting effects.

the large gun pose for instance is a closer up shot, you cant see all of the base like the original large gun photo.

Ah, OK. Cool!
I love the close up shots that show all the amazing details to this statue. I hope the production piece is as close as possible to those pics.

Damn that looks good... if ever I was to spend over 2 grand on something like this, it would be this one...

I have a question for the experts here in this forum. I know this is to soon to ask but Ill ask anyhow. In the event that we receive something broken/damage parts be either megatron who's fast approaching or OP, will SS give us replacements for it considering these statues came all the way from japan?

Yeah they should, even though its a different supplier that's what buying from SS "should" guarantee. The only event that might happen is that if they get a lot of breakages which means they might run out, but at a few thousand edition size I wouldn't worry too much.

These are all old photos Henny. Nothing new.

 

[nemenforcer]

Pics look awesome. Just wish this guy was a little bit bigger for the price and all

no, ur wrong, there not . you compare them to the ones from a few weeks ago and you will see the differences. they have been taken with the similar lighting effects but slightly different . these fotos look a bit clearer as well. have a look at the pics below, one from yest and one from a few weeks ago. they are different!!!!
