Description
Taking a break from the EX Gokins for now. I'll wait until the next one arrives before I post more of them.Anyway, these are the Masterpiece Optimus Prime and Megatron figures. For those of you who don't know, both figures have had upgrade kits made by a third party.
Megatron's barrel extension and stock were produced by JustItoys, which can be assembled into a cannon or as an add-on to Megatron's cannon in robot mode.
Prime's trailer, on the other hand, is entirely fan made; there's no company logo on the box or the trailer itself. By itself it's just an over-sized G1 trailer, but there's and upgrade kit for it that can update the look. Also, the trailer comes with Roller, unlike the trailer for the newer version Takara put out recently.
EDIT: Transformers is owned by Hasbro and Takara, not me.

That's gotta be the MP01 optimus from takara rite? my american release had these ugly short smoke stacks and nothing was chromed. Gotta enjoy the classic color for the US version of starscream though.

Yeah it's MP-01. Although the only US release of the 01 that lacked chrome was the release made to honor the 20th anniversary of the animated movie, or DVD Prime as the fandom calls it.
And yes, Hasbro did well with the paint scheme for MP Starscream, which will be getting its own upgrade package in the form of the coronation gear from the movie. Even MP Skywarp is getting his own version of the gear.
