Eighties plastic from G1 figures has better details than this. And the industry was in its infancy at this stage. And I bet eighties plastic has better durability than this cheap-looking material as well.
If you're going to skip around my video then I'll ask you not to watch it at all as skipping effects the algorithms on YouTube.

I understand what you mean about the plastic as I've handled quite a few figures that didn't feel "right." In my hands Prime feels ok outside of one or two issues mentioned in the video. I agree about the KO look, at first something looked off about the figure but I've gotten used to it as that's Prime's movie look.
