Optimus Prime was Primes 1 Studio's first Transformers statue, take from the 3rd movie - Dark of the Moon and Directed by Michael Bay. www.sideshow.com www.prime1studio.com
Sneeked this video in before becoming the chef for the house shortly. Great Video Kevin, always enjoy your video reviews and a awesome well detailed statue, prefer it then the Rocket Jet pack version. What was your favourite film of the is it 6 movies now ?
Great to see you do a review, its an amazing piece, the whole line is infact. I'm kinda the same, its hard to collect these premium statues now especially being in the UK what with shipping and tax.Also with the market now flooded with rival companies all competing, I see the prices going higher although the quality is certainly getting way better.
I was looking at ordering something direct from Prime 1 but their delivery charge was almost £500, that's just taking the pee and then like you say we have 20% tax on top. It's getting crazy, mate.
@@RobotOnLine I just couldn't justify paying that. Also iv heard of other collectors in Europe getting charged double tax on an item shipping in 2 boxes. You can claim it back but its a complete long winded ball ache. I know a few bailed out on the Thanos bust because of that reason. Certainly an expensive hobby now.
I’ve got prime 1 the last night bumblebee. Shit my self when I saw the box... wife shit her self when she found out how much I’d paid. Probably the only prime 1 I’ll ever own
RobotOnline paid nearly 900 quid I think including the proper stand for it.... got factory entertainments men in black blaster for 500, that’s nice. Robocops gun ( airsoft) for 200, that’s a right bargain.
RobotOnline Jesus... do you suggest I just wait for it to come on Sideshow? Prime1 told me that currently there are no plans to bring this to sideshow... but history says otherwise. Would it be cheaper on sideshow if I bought it there?
@@S0UNDWAVE Although Sideshows shipping is cheaper it's not massively so on big Prime 1 pieces. See if Collectibles Direct have it or Darkside Collectibles

I'm not a huge fan of Transformers, but... THIS is a beast! Great shirt, by the way :-D
I'm not a hardcore fan, I never liked the original cartoons in the 80's and 90's but I did like "some" of the movies. Cheers, Seb.
That T shirt is really nice💥

I would say 1, 2, 4 and Bumblebee 👍
@@RobotOnLine Not a bad choice, 2,1, 6 are my fav 3, not so keen on the others as much,
@@CHRISBLU007 Yeah 3, Dark of the Moon is like watching a 2 hour commercial.
This looks so good your your channel but totally shit on other channels.

RobotOnline Thank you I’m currently binging your channel today

@@gypsycatcha79 If I do order something I will only use a UK supplier now.
@@RobotOnLine Definitely. Tends to take a bit longer but worth it in the end. Plus supports our own suppliers...👍
@@gypsycatcha79 Hey Gypo Catcher, Where you been man? Not seen a video from you on your channel in along time now.
Great video!!! Whats the size of it without the base?
Without the base he is 61cm or 24 inches
Thanks bro

Yeah that Bumblebee is stunning though, good choice!
RobotOnline got another piece right up your ally..the tomenosuke blade runner blaster..exquisite
@@tomstrutton4351 I do like that one, how much are they these days?
RobotOnline paid nearly 900 quid I think including the proper stand for it.... got factory entertainments men in black blaster for 500, that’s nice. Robocops gun ( airsoft) for 200, that’s a right bargain.
@@tomstrutton4351 I have the MIB blaster too. Where did you get Robocops from?
Damn what is that turntable?? I need one of those! Can you help me out?
Just search this on eBay - Lazy Susan Rotating Aluminium Turntable Bearing
Looking to purchase the new ROTF version. Any idea how much shipping and tax will end up costing to the UK? Ordering direct from Prime1.
Right now Prime 1's shipping costs are through the roof, anything between £400-600. And then add 20% duty
RobotOnline Jesus... do you suggest I just wait for it to come on Sideshow? Prime1 told me that currently there are no plans to bring this to sideshow... but history says otherwise. Would it be cheaper on sideshow if I bought it there?
@@S0UNDWAVE Although Sideshows shipping is cheaper it's not massively so on big Prime 1 pieces. See if Collectibles Direct have it or Darkside Collectibles
RobotOnline many thanks for the advice. First ever prime1 piece. Been collecting 3A but it’s time to make the jump. Will keep you posted.
Good luck, David!
Hows that fred Barton robocop holding up kev..any peel
