I'm glad we're seeing Machine Wars Optimus Prime being revisited in modern times especially with how we're almost getting nothing but G1 Optimus Prime designs nowadays so this feels like such a breath of fresh air. I'm hoping to nab this the first chance I get. Would be also cool to see them do a Universe 1.0 Menasor repaint out of this mold too.
That MW Prime was one of the first figures I ever owned when I was younger, along with the old primal. Might pick this up. Love this update to the design.
In the US, the Machine Wars came out in stores very shortly after BW started, which always made them feel like a throwaway knock-off transformer line trying to compete instead of just an alternate TF line from Kenner at that time. I remember thinking it was really weird.
I really wish we could get more machine wars figures in MP. It is the time I remember the most for Transformers and loved Soundswave and the hoist and hubcap. They were my favorites
Thank you for all your hard work with this channel. You're one of the best Toy reviewers out there. All that aside, you're also and inspiration for overcoming your health issues and still providing top notch content. Cheers!
Sometimes I regret collecting things like marvel legends. This is easily cooler than any 6 marvel legends. I see some of these 3rd party transformers and it makes me wanna sell my legends and start a 3rd party transformers collection.
Actually Ben, there's a very reasonably priced Machine Wars Prime on US Ebay right now. Not sure if it's 100% complete but it looks mostly there. Might need some new stickers, but otherwise.... you might catch a steal
So I know this is beyond a long shot, but what if Fans Hobby used this mold one more time to make Fire Rodimus? True, he never existed beyond a design sketch, but it would be delightfully bonkers if they did it. Link for anyone unfamiliar with Fire Rodimus: tfwiki.net/wiki/Fire_Rodimus#Fire_Rodimus
DAAAANG!!! I might need to get this. When beast wars came out I was so sad. I'm one of the few on this earth that did NOT like robots changing into animals. Enter MACHINE WARS. My transformers are back! And POOF just as fast as they arrived, I never saw them again and my hopes of G1/G2 returning are dashed forever. Yeah. I think I need this.
Same tho I didn't really like the concept of beast wars at all.im fine with transformers transforming into animals but all the bots transforming into animals is just to much

I absolutely love this! Machine Wars is so underrated. Hopefully more figures from that line will get the 3P treatment.
Love these modern remakes of G1 and G1,5 / Machine Wars.
I love this version of MW-OP, it is even better then the origanle. I always kept the MW in truck mode as I had better looking Laser and G2 ones.
He is so cool. The colors pop, and I want him now

I've just found my favorite version of Prime
I had machine wars Prime. Never knew where it really came from
Didn't really follow Transformers in the 90's at all, but cool to see. Ratchets sound great.
Prime...that thunderhawk.

David Turner bless you David , thank you
This version of Machine Wars prime looks like the Great War is about to end and he’s just turned mean.
What an amazing toy

Wow. That is amazing...
Those are some really big guns 😂

Fans Hobby has said the next one they are doing is the Fire guts prime.
Have you tried attaching God Armor?
I'm curious about this as well.
hmm, how many repaints does this mold have now?
One
@@nicocabeza9733 my mistake, I meant remolds
@@nosrepsuomynona7192 the first mold its mb-16 and this its mb-16A, we have two version of this mold, original and this
@@nicocabeza9733 isn't this based on the Power Baser mold?
@@nosrepsuomynona7192 nop, check fans hobby thunderclash, that the original and this is a repaint
It's a french truck by Renault.
I need him I love this guy
head looks too small for the body but thats not a big deal. that second face with the mouth plate is how the original should have looked.
So I know this is beyond a long shot, but what if Fans Hobby used this mold one more time to make Fire Rodimus? True, he never existed beyond a design sketch, but it would be delightfully bonkers if they did it.

@@quickshot112 yeah a few G1 examples like ravage, ratbat, the dinobots... Those are fine. But ALL of them? Nah.
@@RandomStuffGarage619 there is limit
