Erm, the words were there on the first physical pics of the figure we saw:President-prime wrote:Did they just put those words on, after people saying they want those words there. It seems like they put up original rumor pictures and see what people say and made changes according to what our reactions are. Look at the original post and this new one of shatter glass Optimus. What looking at the same place in the cab and these words are added later. Does t matter, I'm pre-ordered him
The images on the earliest pages of the thread are just stock photos rather than they physical product.

I'd still be tempted to say it's a last-minute decision. A great last-minute decision in any case

He should have his jagged bot symbol painted on the side and maybe nothing on the shoulder. The mold exists to do so (MP10B).

Kurona, please stop doing that. Hasbro Asia is not the same thing as Transformers Asia. Hasbro Asia is Hasbro's Asian marketing division while Transformers Asia is an independent third party that licenses exclusives (and the odd re-releases like MP Soundwave) from Hasbro (and Takara Tomy). Think of TFA like you would e-Hobby or Fun Publication. It would be like taking something posted on the BotCon Facebook page and reporting it as coming from Hasbro's Facebook page. Two entirely different things.

Uh.
Well, I'm about to head off to bed so I'll have to fix it tomorrow. Thanks for the heads-up.

It does exist and I agree. Those huge shattered symbols make the alt mode

Gotta admit, while I care not for Shattered Glass, he looks pretty good and that purple is frickin' gorgeous!

I'm hoping it ships out before I actually go on Christmas break. Finals end December 10 and I'll be around an extra week or so for work (I guest teach as schools) so I really really really hope it comes before then so I can enjoy it when I'm bored at night and upload bookoo amounts of images

You're not satisfied with the two official SG Ravage toys that already exist?VanOscuro wrote:You know what would really be nice that's shattered glass? SG Ravage. There are plenty of molds to use, just paint one white, paint the symbol red, and call it official.

I'd love some of these. Hell, gimme the Cobalt Sentry Team. That'd be aces!

You have no idea how much I want the Cobalt Sentry Team. More obscure Decepticons? More female decepticons (including technically the first trans character)? A friggin' Decepticon secret police force? I need them so bad.

All you need to know is Optimus is a maniacal tyrant that is prone to violence and deviously cunning, Hot Rod is Starscream with a saw hand and a goatee and much more competent, and everything else after that is equally as interesting, backwards, and downright fun and cool.
And it is a sexy looking figure. I will not regret ordering this one and making it an MP first for me

Ironhidensh wrote:So it is kinda like the Transformers version of Star Trek's mirror universe?
Yeah, it's the antiverse trope. Good guys are bad, bad guys are good, Starscream's a loyalist and Ravage has a twitter.
It's based primarily on the Classicsverse.

But it also pulls in bots from all kinds of dimensions, like homemade bots just for the story, RiD 2001 guys, Armada, even some old G1 comics styled stuff.
It is a really interesting thing. If you like Star Trek mirror universe (which I think you do?) then you will like it.

I am proud and jealous.
But I'll be even prouder once we have this Shattered Prime sent out and pictures are flying up on the site!

Yes it is!! It's making me want this dang figure!! More even than Nemesis Prime, maybe because this guy actually IS Optimus Prime, not a clone type of bot. And I'm not even in to the Shattered Glass universe stuff!! I thought it was kinda cool but never picked any of the exclusives up.Bumblebee21 wrote:thats a nice box

Posted by Sabrblade on October 14th, 2016 @ 10:33am CDT
I suppose the lack of Spike would make sense since SG Optimus never met Spike, Buster, Butch, or Bruce "Buzz" Witwicky.D-Maximus_Prime wrote:itscramtastic wrote:He's fully loaded!!
