>>5957183Wow, there's really no scale comparison of MP Optimus Primal and Cheetor in promo pics yet. Weird. this is the closest thing I can find.
Granted, cheetor actually wasn't tHAT much smaller than Primal in show. Mainframe made Optimus Primal oddly small; Rhinox, Dinobot, and Megatron all where much bigger than him. Tigatron was about his same height. I think the reason Takara scaled Primal like they did was so they could do Megatron at a large size that still hovers around 12000 yen.
I have a bit of a theory that Takara has drawn the line at MP prices not exceeding G1 Optimus as MP-10. Ultra Magnus and StarSaber, while taller, where also cheaper than MP-10(though MP-10 did have the trailer). If they made Optimus Primal larger, they'd have to make a BW Megatron that'd be around the same price as MP-10, which I think they'd be apprehensive about.
