GG, Botcon you actually managed to get me to care about one of your toys.

...except with this being a souvenir toy and me being Canadian this is gonna cost me an arm and a leg to get.*Sigh*

To be honest I would've loved to see this one at retail as a BW-Anniversary kinda thing. I guess it makes more sense being a Botcon-Exclusive considering the history of this design, but yeah for someone living in Germany this will be too expensive to obtain if it is only sold at Botcon.

Even for some in the States it's going to suck. Not going to BotCon means paying aftermarket too, and given how in demand I expect this to be the people predicting it to be $200 minimum don't seem that far off to me at all. So never owning this basically. Which sucks because it's one of my favorite molds and characters combined..

Meh at least MP Primal shouldn't be too expensive ha. Glad they didn't waste much time showing off more face plates. They look great! Only minor disappointment so far is that it really seems like he won't have his flail (toy-only so probably why).

Ironic how a high end toy out of Japan will cost way less than getting a Botcon toy after the fact huh?

Oh man, that Botcon toy was proposed by 3H like, a decade ago!

I remember seeing it on the TFWiki before

Primal is looking awesome. Woes about the masked face is gone, and he's looking great! I totally want one~

Electric Turahk · 02-06-2016, 09:20 PM

Painted MP Primal! He looks amaaaaazing!

Matrixbeast · 02-06-2016, 09:22 PM

He looks so pretty~

algo448 · 02-06-2016, 09:41 PM

That's just Prime!

Really, it looks like it leapt from the show.
