Sounds interesting, check around and see if the more recent Optimus Prime that is being sold at Walmart is die cast. It was marketed as "the biggest Optimus Prime figure made", so I thought it might be. I saw one of those at a Walmart recently, it was clearanced down to $40. They might be the same figure.

I didn't handle him long, so I don't have a lot of details to go on, He looks great, cept 1 major condition issue. on the chest piece, on 1 side there's a huge blob of what looks to be either plaster or whiteout hardend and plastered on the driverside front window. It maybe repairable it may not, but they were asking $50! Now the toy is big and heavy but is it worth that? especially in the condition described? wondering if any transformer fans/collectors may know of what figure I speak of. I looked to have good articulation, but I doubt it transformers. Kind of looked like a huge version of the revlotech prime figure. any ideas? I can probably talk them down on price, especially if it sits there for a week or 2.
