Third Party company Dr. Wu have shared, via their Weibo account, images of two new variants of their Prime Commander (Micromaster Scale G1 Optimus Prime).
These are new redecos of this impressive 6 cm tall Optimus Prime mold which goes very well in scale with WFC Micromasters of Titans figures. DW-E04G is a “Golden Lagoon” inspired redeco and DW-E04W is a white “Ultra Magnus” redeco. Both figures include trailer and weapon. They are great additions to the previous variants revealed.
See all the images after the jump and then sound off your impressions on this tiny toys on the 2005 Boards!

I bought two sets and they came in earlier this week. I gave Optimus some of the cartoon inspired decals:

I particularly like the side windows. Toyhax also included a set of replacement front window decals which I don’t really understand because they look identical to the stock windows. Toy Ultra Magnus came with matte blue windows so I decided to give the decals to him. In the process I realized that cartoon Ultra Magnus came with grey windows (to my knowledge he’s also the only Optimus with painted side windows). I felt like this was more fitting for the toy version so I swapped the two. I think the blue windows look better to match cartoon Optimus.

I use most of the remaining toy-inspired decals on one of my Delta Magnus’ core robots. I also gave him the JUQI red window decals at an attempt to differentiate him from the regular Delta and make an SG Ultra Magnus. Not sure if I really like the JUQI window decals though. I also give Nemesis some cab stripes which I really like.

I ended up buying the reissue of the toy version of Optimus and plan on giving him the entire set of toy decals whenever he arrives.
I would love if Toyhax releases more variations of this set for the other copies, especially Ultra Magnus.

As mentioned by @SSninja in the Master thread;
Toyhax is offering decals for DW Prime Commander to make him more toy accurate (or the trailer more cartoon accurate):

Man you guys are seriously tempting me into getting this guy just to repurpose as G2 Prime.
"He's tiny, he's pissed, and he's taking names!"

Tnx I really appreciate it! Battle damaged OP has nice colors ( I also liked the sleep mode ver, photos from Zodiac196340 posted ), he has beautiful metallic blue eyes that's bought me and my primary idea was to serve me for some scenes from G1 toon cuz Dr Wu line it really has a purpose in it. I'm really enjoying this line more and more and I noticed that Dr Wu figures they are progressing about engineering, aesthetics.
Anyway about NA Grim, it was not my intention to announce or suggest Dr Wu Dinobots I just wanted to do a nice picture with my little OP
WST Junkie
Ooh, Dr. Wu Dinobots… That would be epic.

Looks good! I really like the color scheme on new battle-damaged Optimus.
Got excited for a second thinking this was an announcement for a Dr. Wu Grimlock.

Man I'd like to recreate this scene using the proper characters and that orange medical bed… A decent camera wouldn't hurt either lol.

Such Heroic Nonsense
Seeing this made me realise how odd it is that more 3P companies haven't made the orange medical bed for Prime, esp in MP scale.
Posing the TFTM characters around it would be a great little diorama to complete.
Well, I say "great" ….
WST Junkie
Yeah but my point was that Dr. Wu probably didn't want to use another kill shot on this version as the other Sleep Mode Prime already has a killshot on its chest. He probably didn't want to overuse/exhaust that design option.
And being that this figure is so tiny it wouldn't be very practical to add something like that to the side of his abdomen, although it would be a nice inclusion…
Q Prime
Oh no, that’s just a part of SG Prime’s deco. In TFTM, Optimus was shot in the side of his abdomen, leading to his death (this deco is visible on the ER dead Prime).
WST Junkie
Yeah, both the first grey "Dormancy" version and the purple version has the "kill shot" on the chest…
View attachment 30231354
Q Prime
There was another one?!
WST Junkie
Perhaps Dr. Wu didn't want it to be too similar to the first version that had the kill shot on the chest…
WhiteMocha
I skipped the previous grey “sleep mode” deco for this little guy, but I think I’ll get this version. The battle damage (even if it’s missing the gut shot) sells the idea better.
The transparent Roller makes me laugh. I like the implication that as Optimus dies, Roller fades out of existence too, haha.
autobot prowl
That's exactly what I said.

Spark Fade DW-E04 got a genuine laugh out of me. It's as funny as it is horrible.
