Yeah, I'm sorely tempted by the leader Prime.

That's exactly the one I'm tempted by as well. He won't be cheap, but I heard this is one of the best movie toys they ever made. Which makes it interesting to me.

Hey me too on that exact one.. It comes with a nice mix of accessories from their previous special editions too.

Uh. Wait weren't we supposed to talk ourselves out of it?

Yeah, I only own the first movie Leader and kick myself for passing up later versions. This is like fate telling me to fix that :lol

I did own that Leader Optimus. He is very accurate to the on-screen appearance (at least for the first 3 films) but incredibly hard to transform. It takes pain-staking precision to line everything up correctly and there's some very VERY fragile pegs in his chest that can break without much effort.

I had enough trouble with the first movie Optimus, so I probably wouldn't even try with one that's even harder :p

If you want something that looks like Movieverse Optimus & aren't too bothered by scale, then your best bet is still probably "Battle Blade" Optimus from the 2nd film.

Kinda wish they had masterpiece powermasters at the moment.

HE'S REAL!

Nice! But since I can't afford him at the time I'll stick with Combiner Wars Megatron.
