Sideshow Making 20"+ Movie Optimus Prime Maquette

[niennumb1]

Oh okay. I was under the impression it was 100 Ex. and 100 Reg.

Guess I was waaayyyy wrong, hahaha!

Received the charge as well. Now time to prepare for the flex payments.

As I said before I just hope it sells out quick and Sideshow releases a Bumblebee by the mid-end 2011. It would be perfect have them side by side!

as long as they made him in proportion to prime to where they wouldnt look weird next to each other, ie not as tall, etc, it would be cool.

im probably in the minority here but i would absolutely love a bayformer of starscream...that would be my ultimate piece to own if done properly. picturing a pose with his missiles out, ready to fire on the one hand. of course with the amount of time that went into prime, i dont see them being able to do starscream with the amount of detail he has

Got charge confirm by email but have not get charge by my card, can anyone tell me why?

 

[spidermonkey]

anyone has an idea of the ES for the regular Optimus ?

I would think 500 at the most.

 

[Vex]

Open ES for Reg?

i prefer Ironhide to display next to optimus prime but i guess we'll only see a megatron or bumblebee

 

[fuzzylojiks]

I would love a Megatron or Ironhide.

I'm seriously thinking of jumping on the Reg. I love this piece too much to completely pass on it. The energon swords are nice, but even if I got the EX, I'd still display him with the bazooka arms.

 

[Ra88]

Hmm, you mean like this?

Yeah, like that second one. Makes it look a bit better, but either way it's still a masterpiece!

I'm hoping that they'll either make Bumblebee next, or Starscream! He could look great if they get him in a nice dynamic pose, like when he landed on that bridge:

Or maybe when he swooped in to that street. Imagine if they replicated this pose, complete with some cars and Sam trying to hide:

Hopefully they wouldn't go with a somewhat static pose, though. The flaws of that design really become apparent when he's just standing there, so they need to convey a sense of motion for him.

[Isildur's bane]

Indeed, it looks amazing in the vid.

 

[starscream77]

[Rock83]

Optimus Prime is the only one i would buy in this size,i leave the rest to Hasbro and Takara.

I saw this at SDCC, it is big and impressive but not as big as that video makes it out to be. I think that guy next to him is just very short.

 

[INFECDEAD]

They are using an old Sideshow mind trick!

Looks awesome in the BSP, i can't wait for this to ship!!
