Speed Stars Optimus Prime
Back from my holidays in my hometown and back to the everyday routine....
My first toy feature since forever~ Alright, lets get it started.
Speed Stars Optimus Prime from the movie series.

Why this and not the tomica die cast one may ask? Well, easy --> THE PRICE!
It may not have the trailer but it is still a worthwhile purchase for all prime lovers out there. With its (mostly) die cast parts and detailed parts, its definitely a good buy for me.
The size of this prime is roughly 3in which makes it around the size of a hot wheels automobile, however the quality is much better than the basic hot wheels series; can't compare it with the premium ones though.
The details for this little guy is really commendable as can be seen in the pictures that follow. The fire vinyls, gas tank, and rims are really well made and painted. The fire vinyls really impressed me as they are free from smudges and missed paints. Although the details on the exhaust and mufflers are there, its too bad that they are made from plastic if not it'd be even more badass!
The QC is also not a bother except for the scratches on the wheel arches. All models at the place where I scour this are unfortunately damages at the same location. Does anyone else suffer this btw?
The downside for this is the "transformation" to robot mode which is utterly ugly! They could have just part ways with this gimmick which will make the figure much more perfect and save additional cost as well.
Overall, this is a good addition to all prime collectors out there and I strongly recommend this compared to its pricier Tomica cousin (no offence to Tomica is intended. =p)
