I’m not sure if you’re aware, but you’ve missed a small step. For truck mode, the smokestacks can actually pull outward and then hinge to the side to be slightly more on the sides of the vehicle.

TE-01 OP Leader is the better toy in regards to play value. Whereas I’m always scared MP-44 Optimus Prime is going to break and the paint chips too easily. 3rd party companies usually place more care into their designs.

I prefer MP-44 to TE-01 due to its superior articulation and because I simply prefer the sculpt. Both are definitely amazing figures, and I would recommend TE-01 over MP-44 to most people, but I myself could not live with TE-01 over MP-44.

Finally got myself a copy, and I love him. You're absolutely right about the transformation.

Hey just to let you know that he does have a butterfly joint as well, you press a button and there you go!

I had already picked this up a week ago after looking at some reviews but your video really helped to cement my happiness with the choice. Excellent review and thanks for the comparisons.

As usual, great review. Funny, entertaining, balanced and informative.

Great review, I appreciate your level of detail that you put into them! I absolutely love the fact that we as fans have so many options...I have the OP Leader v1 (twice over; one for robot mode & the other for vehicle) and I can say with absolute certainty, I much prefer OP Leader over the myriad of reviews I’ve seen for MP-44...while 44 looks beautiful from the front in both modes and that paint is exquisite, I’ll take OP any day

Got him a few months back for 81$. Worth it is an understatement.

A lovely figure, super clean in both modes! The lack of a thigh swivel, with the cut above the knee, kills it for me though.

Just bought preowned yesterday. Very amazing build quality with almost perfect accuracy.

Great video. Oh you had a trailer hitch on backwards. Be blessed

The head is nice. He looks like the compassionate leader we all remember.

Good stuff Sixo, happy holidays! 👋

Thanks for showing transformation with nice music and no annoying comments "fold this like so" "collapse this piece" "bend here" "collapse like so" blah blah fking blah.

Just bought him new for £127.50 I'm so so hyped as I've always wanted a masterpiece figure and finally got one ! Awesome video thank you for your excellent effort 👌🏻

Awesome comparison! Thank you!

You did it! You transformed MP-44 again haha.

Mine just arrived a few days ago, love this figure!

Really fun toy. The legs were such a nice surprise the first time!

This is definitely the only Optimus Prime figure for me. I do not regret getting it instead of MP-44, especially since I got to buy an MP-10 trailer separately. I have transformed it back and forth several times and the figure has not really suffered from it. It really looks good in both modes and is well built, too. My only issue with it was the short neck which prevented it from looking down with the other head but fortunately, that issue got rectified too with a longer neckpiece.

The ET looks so good!! I’m impressed

Luv this figure. Will be keeping this forever

This is one of the cooler Optimus Prime’s out there. Excellent fit. Complicated and fun looking.

I believe that you can put the trailer hitch on so it's closer to the cab. That should solve you gap issue with the trailer.

Much better than mp44. It's cheaper, feels better, has diecast, is clean in BOTH modes, just as toon accurate depending on the shot, bigger gun, a way better matric chamber. I just wish te01 had chrome on the grill, gas tanks, smoke stacks, and I would have wanted just an abcrunch. That would bring it from decent articulation to amazing.

I’m getting him for Christmas 😊

I'm not yet a crazy Masterpiece-type collector or anything, so far I only have the Harambe Primal MP23 that I found indeed very convincing, therefore it's most intriguing and entertaining to watch reviews of the numerous options for Optimus Prime himself. You'd expect initiallly knockOffs to be substantiallly lackluster in terms of quality, but it turns out I've been proven quite wrong today, this TE-01 definitely hold its own against MP10 or MP44 and considering the price gaps it's no small feat. It's about half the price for more than half the quality so all in all it sounds like a very viable option, especially for people who don't really care about the trailer. Seeing it next to other MasterPiece scale figures makes it look kinda nice indeed although the red plastic does look a bit cheap and not too sturdy somehow but I guess unless I see it in hand I can only imagine it yes. Very nice review and looking forward to see more. RS4 Gris Nardo.

Just to clarify, I wouldn't say they're knockoffs. Generally knockoffs are direct copies of existing molds or borrow alot of engineering from an existing mold. Third party starts to blur the line of what constitutes a knock off since yes, it is based on the same character, but the engineering and sculpt is completely different. An example is if we compare mp optimus primal with the original toy. They're both based on the same primal design but they're very clearly different toys. You wouldn't call the mp a knockoff of the original just because it's based on the same character right?

Who needs a huge empty rectangular box anyway.

I suppose the antennae being separate means you can attach super big ones (assuming they make them) to replicate how OP looks in some Japanese depictions. And then you can combine them with either of the two faces depending on which looks best to you

Great video as always! Keep it up. Did you know if you press this button 31:35 in robot mode you can activate a butterfly joint . And will you buy more stuff from Transform Element? Anyway have a good day unlike me bacuse i'm fricking sick.

I hope some day we’ll get a figure that takes the best of this two guys and makes the definitive Optimus.

I prefer MP-44, (especially the KO with the cleaner backpack) but this is a nice option too

Love him completely, he looks great beside MP-10 as an evolution. Way too spooked price and transform for MP-44. I really want a crystal one now as well.

Very solid figure

19:25 The Matrix of Leadership is upside down in Prime's Chest.

Which version is this? Got mine from eBay and it was listed as version 3. The panels were so tight during transformation and I noticed you had relative ease when transforming yours.

TE01 to me is MP44 done right. Animation accurate without being an ugly mess.

It's so cool

This isn't that old. Last year I think it was released. I love it. I also got the MP-44 and love that too. I'm selling my Magic Square Optimus Prime, great figure technically but doesn't hold a candle to the look of these 2 beauties.

Nice comparison between the two figures.

He has a butterfly joint in his shoulders too.

nice

For mine TE-01 wins overall. It wins overall with its much cleaner and fun transformation. Display wise MP-44 has a better bot mode. But I think transformation and quality is important to give TE-01 the win. I gave TE -01 88/100 and MP-44 a 87 😁

In the end, I think it has to do with how it is on the display.
