Transformers Power of The Primes OPTIMUS PRIME

[@liopleurodon2000]

I bought this figure because it was the only G1 Optimus that was being sold at a collector store near where I live. I was hoping to get Siege Optimus, but I'm so glad I picked this figure up. It's got everything I need for a good Prime figure, nice posability, cool accessories, a trailer, and Orion Pax as a bonus. I wish it came with an axe, but I'll live. He's surprisingly fun to animate too, despite being out of scale with my other transformer figures. 9/10 best Prime figure from the Prime Wars trilogy

[@dragonivy4779]

I tend to peg on the sword from Transformers Toys Generations War for Cybertron: Kingdom Commander WFC-K29 Rodimus Prime to make up for not having that axe.

[@russellmarch4983]

Moral of the story: Hasbro generally doesn’t do great with stickers

[@rhaeasoul8531]

So happy siege abandoned stickers for paint or printed on deco.

[@nightburner5357]

I saw the combined mode and was like "I don't need it, I don't need it". And then you pulled out Orion pax and I went "I NEED IT"!!

[@cyrusrichie4691]

“Here’s The Japanese titans return leader class Optimus!” * Falls over in depression*

[@ВасилийМорозов-л7х]

He got offended that his name Super Ginrai, which he announces every time he transforms, got forgotten.

[@jorjyogurt8474]

Im happy Hasbro learnt something: SACRIFFICE THE VEHICLE FOR A GOOD ROBOT

[@stevenpeven258]

No Name although it would be better if they could have nailed all three modes

[@shikmaru1999]

You're right in fact why even have a vehicle mode when we can just focus on making a super solid robot mode, no vehicle modes neccessary

[@nachoprime9649]

harrison barber no.....we need vehicle modes they just shouldn't be top priority

[@shikmaru1999]

Xx_nachosupreme69_xX the issue isn't that they're making the vehicle modes a top priority it's that they're focusing entirely too much on gimmicks. Any fault with leader class OP and rodimus lies with the intrusive evolution gimmick Hasbro is giving all the leader class figures

[@gregmaine5100]

Pray to maximus

[@ElementGod-ym9lv]

With the 2 legs sticking out of Optimus’s back I just think of them like rocket jet packs

[@TFGourmet]

I have to admit the fact that, I´ve seen this figure review many times, different channels, and you are the one selling it, I didnt like the figure because many reviewer focused on the Orion Pax and his truck mess, but you gave it another direction and looking at it from this point of view, the figure is awesome, you did a nice job HIGHLIGHTING ITS STRONG POINTS, like I´m telling my friends around me, they say that the old figures are better than the new ones and I´m telling them, no they are not, because before, if you wanted to have "HotRod, Rodimus Prime, Orion Pax and Optimus prime" you had to buy 4 figures now you have to buy 2, at some point if you look at it it i cheaper, this way and another thing is that you don´t need to go to look so much to find all the figures... the last point of criticism is the kibble... I MEAN come on, you are getting two figures in one, and that transform in to 2 separate vehicles each other... WOW!!! not even combiners did that... my point here is the fact that a toy that transforms into 4 different things... its supposed that at least one of the modes is going to suffer... and Hasbro found out the way to balance the kibble... (yes I know that orion pax truck mode was the most affected but...). now to finish I say OUTSTANDING REVIEW MY FRIEND!!!

[@adawnicusautocon]

Though the Orion legs maybe dangling from the back I like to imagine it as a little jet pack for Optimus prime ( the Orion knee caps gives me rocket engine vibes) 😊

[@wanderingaceminecraftandmo8034]

Least he doesn't have to demand Sideswipe's rocket pack

[@dragonivy4779]

the tabs on the legs can break fairly easily. especially if kids play with it. so then they just kinda hang there, and its not great.

[@vincentmarcellino7183]

The truck mode may be kinda weak but his robot modes are awesome. The weight is really satisfying with the perfect amount of heft. Target has a reissue now and I don't regret dropping 50 bucks.

[@Alex876]

to me the legs on back are jetpacks

[@johnwayne4142]

Add combiner feet to the hands in the back it does wonders for the figure

[@Jonni65]

Good idea if i had it

[@ramilmendoza5392]

Same here

[@riythemusicguy7696]

"sideswipe give me your rocket pack!"

[@michaellombardi1620]

Looks like the best mainline prime figure I've ever seen

[@Matt-cn2nn]

michael lombardi To be fair, he doesn't have much competition. The Classics had a Deluxe with an awesome robot mode and terrible truck mode, and the Voyager was awesome, but a bit stylised and has a bit of kibble. The only Optimus figures we had until Combiner Wars were his two video game bodies, then the CW was a bit too simple and chunky for most. The Titans Return figures had a rather ugly coloured Powermaster OP and a G2 Optimus in G1 colours. So this new guy didn't have to do much to look better.

[@breadiztasty]

I know right, i was really looking forward to it

[@kylelangdon6724]

[@SylviaMoonbeam1127]

Honestly surprised none of the reviewers have been showing Orion with Optimus’s head and Optimus with Orion’s head. Either head on either figure looks great and can be easily done thanks to the engineering

[@henry605]

Same

[@fanboysforever]

First review I’ve seen that echoes my sentiments about this guy! Everyone else’s has been way too negative! Grade job!

[@Matt-cn2nn]

fanboysforever People expect too much out of children's toys. They aren't gonna be Masterpiece Quality because we have a line for that already, called Masterpiece and priced even higher.

[@fanboysforever]

Matt TooFast4U agreed. This thing is a third of the price of the cheapest masterpieces!

[@carellicollectables]

Yea.... way too many reviewers on KZbin take themselves way too seriously and seem to forget they're reviewing toys for kids.... Baltmatrix and Emgo know what's up, though.

[@fredxu99]

[@scoobysnacks3740]

With this, the trailer disappearing(like the tv show) takes on a whole new meaning. In the tv show it's like where did the trailer go? Lol. Anyway. Good video and to think that I almost didn't get this prime. Sooooo glad i did because I ended up REALLY liking it👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾. As a matter fact, this prime is the reason why I started collecting the power of the primes line

[@drbobbarker]

You went into every detail of this prime and I was completely surprised by its transformation from robot-smaller robot-vehicle mode! I sure hope our stores here have it soon! Can’t wait to pick this one up! Best Optimus prime figure I’ve seen in a long time!

[@optimoosejones9493]

this looks awesome its the closest thing in stores to a masterpiece figure

[@bjpalm1994]

Great looking Prime but could you imagine the G1 figures being this hard to transform? I always loved the simplicity of the original toys but seeing how difficult they are now, wow.

[@turogamer-oi4nq]

If you call this figure difficult to transform, then you need to see the rotf mixmaster because, oh god I would never be able to transform that guy without breaking a part of him in frustration

[@ToyBro]

Something about this Power of the Primes line is pulling me back into Transformers, got the Grimlock and love him. Optimus and Rodimus are must haves for me, cool to be finding new KZbin channels I've never come across (like this one) since I haven't strayed into Transformers in so long. Excellent review.

[@TFfangeek]

For everyone complaining about Optimus Prime's gray bits, such as his hands, I remember the G1 episode, "The Return of Optimus Prime Part 2" where he was all gray due to covering himself with indestructible metal to end the hate plague. So for me these gray bits are the last bits of the metal Optimus wore to take the Matrix of Leadership from Rodimus Prime. Anyone else agree? :D

[@uainjansun]

TFfangeek. I agreed

[@daddymozz5921]

Hell yeah

[@thabuloodles9209]

I really like this prime I enjoyed transforming this figure with you. Another one in the books all I need now is space convoy optimus and my collection is complete

[@curtisgangler5855]

I bought Optimus Prime and Rodimus Prime for 20$ each at target last month. Absolutely love these figures. Looking for Optimal Optimus to add to my collection asap :)

[@kingragnork]

Jealous. They're still $45 at my Target.

[@bradcbee377]

Dang

[@MrLegostarwarsfilms]

I’m not a big fan of the scale size but I absolutely love this figure

[@bentruett1163]

This would make a really good ultra magnus. His original sketch for the original movie was later used for Orion pax.

[@bumblebricks3669]

10:57 I used to put Hot rod's head to play that Optimus has a nightmare 😂😂😂😂

[@DenverEight]

I’m sitting here with the latest re-release in 2024. Everything feels a little loose on my copy. Especially on the ankles and outwards hinges for the legs. It especially makes it hard to pose or even stand straight without it tipping over forwards or backwards.

[@chocobose]

Yeah, I noticed the same thing.

[@mrheroprimes]

the truck mode just makes my think of Energon Optimus Prime cab.

[@brianrussell2083]

I know the feeling man I just got my power of the Prime's Optimus prime last night and watching your reviews I to didn't need to look at the directions untill I got too the upper body of the trailer

[@SylviaMoonbeam1127]

That isn’t Quintus... that’s the matrix. Quintus hasn’t been released yet, the cards are random

[@Katarn84]

The more reviews I see of this, the less disgusted I am of the cab and backpack and I'm considering getting him if I find him in store.

[@julito32]

Katarn84 Yea, at first I was against this - now I feel I might just pick him up ...

[@lazarusblackwell6988]

Prime actually has another transformer INSIDE! WAY COOL!

[@KodyCrimson]

11:17 Oh my goodness I wasn't expecting that joke! Gee-Wun Redone's "The Cringe-Worthy Special" for the win!

[@gurt1973]

I’m picking this up as soon as I can this is so cool

[@noelsabbath9194]

Nothing will defeat Hasbro's MP 10 but this is the BEST Optimus prime I've ever seen second after MP 10, but overall great video.

[@ultralaggerREV1]

That Optimus is highly AMAZING, Optimus mode, Orion mode, truck mode and includes the Matrix of Leadership :)

[@astrotanker3887]

this is by far the best g1 leader class optimus (only down side is the smoke stacks in the robot mode not appearing in the truck cabin)

[@Spenceley]

It's in dire need of some Reprolabels love, but this'll be a much more affordable alternative to the MP-10 to get a proper Optimus for my Universe Classics Autobots! Vehicle mode isn't the best we've seen, but that's not really what I'm looking for. I always pose Optimus as a robot.

[@DennisTamayo]

Prime returns near the end of the final episode of the Power of the Primes Machinima series one & a half year ago.

[@kithongsam4994]

The head looks exactly like the MP-10! It's like they're the exact same mould!

[@samnella9]

Just bought for my grandson - looks great. Thanks for the great video!

[@jsspartan622]

the way the trailer turns into a bigger body reminds me of the Transformers Armada series where Optimus's trailer could turn him into a bigger robot

[@MrDoctorVK]

Would like to correct you that POTP Leader Class toys (Optimus, Rodimus Prime, Rodimus Unicronus and Optimus Primal so far) comes with complete Matrix with removable core and like POTP Voyager's Enigma of Combination it doesn't transform into little robot, there go core piece isn't Prime Master, that's removable Matrix core. The core what you think is Quintus Prime isn't come out yet. This was for the future record. Other then that; I'm happy that you approve this cool toy.

[@carellicollectables]

So.... you're like a professor of social skills at First Impressions university, right?

[@MrDoctorVK]

Okay, I get carried away bit for yelling and stuff.. :( I didn't meant to be mean or anything.. But while Balt reviewed this perfectly while positive view, he was incorrect about Matrix Core been Quintus Prime.

[@carellicollectables]

Sure but in all fairness HASBRO has been very confusing with their packaging and the cards. If his toy came with a card saying this was "Optimus Quintus" which you can see he did at :30 into his video - it is understandable to think that the Matrix core inside the toy is Quintus. In reality that card is just meant to represent the pair of this toy with the (sold separately and not yet released) Quintus Prime Master, they're not doing a lot to make that very clear - considering that there are apparently multiple variations of these cards with different Prime Master pairing for every single figure in the line, and you can hardly blame someone for being a bit confused. It's a bit confusing, really.

[@MrDoctorVK]

Though, even he can't miss sold separately section and/or section that explains what set contains and how it works with item at the back of the box. It's basics to know what you get from bought set.

[@michaelpayton9164]

Great design. From the front. Every other angle is a disaster. Since Takara is just doing this same toy, I'll wait for Wei Jiang to fix this. Adding paint and filling out that Dollar Store Hollow plastic.

[@Hactavish]

when i saw this figure i sell my RID optimus figure loose and intend to use the axe to this this figure, for me it works pretty well and i love it

[@shadowism1]

One of the best transformers they've released in a while

[@ryanhernandez5632]

I actually liked this figure especially the Oran pax form. My only problem is stickers. Even the rodamus crom figure rocked. It's only issue being the arms in the crom form. They are not enough movement.

I'm starting to think this is accurate to the G1 show. When Optimus transforms, his trailer's missing until he turns back into a truck. There's a few exceptions in a few episodes that includes Roller. How awesome Hasbro provided such wacky thing in this. XD
