This Prime design really came into its own when combined with the other gimmick figures made for him, especially Wing Saber. I hope Fans Hobby is going to make a Wing Saber to go along with this one.

[@noahsterben5666]

That’s something I’m hoping for too. Though I wouldn’t might a Uniform color scheme set for the drones or even an original set of drones.

[@the-aspiring-creator4249]

Ah yes, that time when Optimus decided "You know those teenagers with attitude and my Aerialbots had the right idea, I should become a combining robot!". In all seriousness, this looks like an awesome figure. I love how they took this design of Prime and gave it a proper modern update.

[@ryanmetcalfmightycreatorvr4247]

[@kerrlyfry9719]

Every time I see this version of prime. I can only here him yelling at kicker.

That end gag lol "it's called evolving" "it's called annoying me", that there just basically sums up the nutshell of TF fanbase currently lmao.

I used to transform that original Energon Optimus every other day to help me chill out when I was younger. Love the hell out of Energon Prime.

[@nine_tails137]

Honestly, I miss the good old days when Hasbro gave their Transformers figures added features, rather than simply switching between modes. Also, "It's called upgrades. It's called annoying me" gave me a good laugh.

[@Random42]

Packed in alt mode as primus intended.

[@OptimusPhillip]

This figure fixes pretty much everything wrong with the original. Hats off, FansHobby

[@kaijukid1443]

No argument here, my friend.

[@catjazzhappycat7273]

Megatron referencing the Voltron Vehicle Force in the skit was so brilliant.

[@whitewolf3051]

Too bad Emgo doesn’t know about Transformers Universe and the Leo Prime(s). I only know about that through Bert the Stormtrooper. But if Emgo got his hands on those, than it would really be a Voltron reference.

[@GR33ND3MON]

i was always a fan of Transformers and the power rangers. When i saw Energon Optimus with his super mode, I literally thought it was the coolest thing i've ever seen so seeing this is just really cool.

[@markcastellanet9672]

This is probably closer to voltron.

[@tylervanpeursem7627]

When I was little, the only image I had of him was on a ball (yea) it was AMAZING to my child brain. Kinda glad I never got the og figure though lmao

[@vast9467]

@@markcastellanet9672 they are basically the same thing, but since all the components are vehicles it’s closer to power rangers.

[@TH_Sofa]

Now time to wait for Emgo to get his hands on the new rendition of Cybertron Optimus Prime to complete the new Trilogy figures

[@griffinkimball2454]

I'm hoping Fans Hobby makes their own Cybertron Optimus. The other one just looked to skinny in my opinion

[@TH_Sofa]

​@@griffinkimball2454 They kinda went with making the base form less pudgy which then doesn't really help into the backpack form seem more robust.

[@Vakama95096]

I hope we get Transformers Energon figures on the Legacy line.

[@wonderfulwalrus5715]

Oh my god my wallet

[@alexbelcher2206]

@@wonderfulwalrus5715That’ll be most of the line for me once I actually finish Earthrise and Kingdom. Didn’t complete the Siege line as some of those figures I didn’t care for such as the COMBAT drones like Cog (although I did buy Cog and Brunt due to them being partnered with Fortress Maximus and Trypticon which I have from the Titans Return line). I’m also not buying figures like the Kingdom Magnus because of the very slight changes to the mold and I like the Siege mold better anyway. I am also collecting Studio Series 86 figures which fit the aesthetic of the WFC and Legacy lines so some of those figures fill the spots of the WFC figures, such as SS86 Arcee.

[@gloriousbeast2548]

Maybe make Energon Optimus into a Leader Class (meaning he’ll start as a Voyager, and when he combines, he’ll be the height of a Leader Class since his Powerlink would be the height of any normal leader figure. That would be really cool to see, actually.

[@Captain_Timezone]

I just now realized that this is the only truck Optimus with no smoke stacks

[@sike_ologist3744]

I gotta say, there arent enough words do describe my hatred for Energon Optimus Primes toy/cartoon design. Fans Hobby wields black magic and I absolutely love Energy Commander. I don’t know what it is. I think it’s the extra bit of transformation to slim up primes waist, making the legs look less weird. This is an amazing figure.

[@greenhat8978]

One thing I've always liked to do when I was a little kid in this first came out, though I don't remember if they ever did this in the show was I liked to imagine that he could spin the helicopter blades on his arm and use it as a sort of Shield much similar to how they did in Fall of Cybertron with Bruticus

[@Jay_Rodimus]

"Hot Shot's blaster? Why is he giving it to me?!" Said Optimus about his own damn gun. I kinda want this, but I also kinda wanna wait and see if we get a legacy one. I have a lot of nostalgia for Energon Optimus

[@MrJustintyang]

Man, I remember this being called "Fatimus Prime" when it was relevant, but Fans Hobby did a pretty good job giving it a better proportion.

I like the "Voltron: Defender of the Universe" reference you put in this video.

[@AksulKrumpskragga]

I’m getting those nostalgic vibes of power ranger (super sentai) vehicles/mechs that doubles as a base to hold the zord components

[@typhlo33gaming]

So just got this one the other day and I've actually come up with my own configuration for the back kibble that cleans it up a bit better

[@MrZaku-rh4qt]

Still waiting for fans hobby's armada jetfire and overload, that'd be insane with their prime

Oh man! Its Convoy Enajon-Oh and Chou Convoy Enajon-Oh from Henkei Sentai Enajonger! My favorite Sentai mecha! No but for real there finally being a third party Energon Optimus after so long is great lol. Thank you for the video Emgo. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

I never got into energon as much as I did cybertron or armada, but this is sick. Can't wait for what they do for cybertron prime and even better, cybertron Megatron.

[@Cyber_Horse_Studios87]

Finally after all this time! One of the most under appreciated primes getting a modern update!

[@Shanali-ry1nl]

Yeah, and now Energon Optimus Prime looks better than ever!

[@daleleyva7033]

I'm fairly certain that if you spin the shoulders 180° before installing the arms, you can get another joint to move the shoulder higher than the 45° outward movement you get on just the arm.

[@eyelanderfreelander3375]

I saw a review where they rotated Prime's Shoulder to incorporate a shoulder hinge.

[@ixadorcraine6736]

Note for emgo on the shoulder joint, I think there is a way to get more articulation if the shoulders and arms are facing upwards and still might slot in correctly and it should give you a hinge upwards, please correct me if I’m wrong.

[@GCJACK83]

If anyone fron Fans Hobby is watching the video and checking the comments: Please. Energon Wing Saber. You already gave us one half of this combo, we need the other half now.

The only thing disappointing about the figure is the submarine. They should've kept the claw for arm mode so you'd have 2 normal hands, and 2 tool hands.

[@raysandrarexxia941]

They sell one with the claw hand

I always thought of Energon Optimus Prime's super mode looking like a Power Rangers megazord, but he can combine with his support drones in anyway he wants.

There’s also Transformers Universe’s Leo Prime(s) that could combine with Optimus. I only know about that via Bert the Stormtrooper.

[@TheDaxter11]

Damn, even third party can't do that Prime design justice lol. Its faithful and a good figure don't get me wrong, but there's no saving that design. The combined form, however, is pretty damn good.

[@DraconicDarkness]

I noticed that this has the energon star ports on this thing but do they actually work? Like can you put an energon star on the port itself?

[@leeholman3964]

I like this version a lot better than the original. I never liked the design of Energon Optimus Prime in robot mode because his legs are so thin and his body is so wide and massive. This version, along with the combiner drones, makes it look a whole lot better. I just wish his face didn't look so derpy.

[@sonimusprime9378]

Can I just say sweet intro

[@cameronmoriarty3313]

No idea if it would appeal to you or not, but I think it would be funny for a similar reaction to Cybertron Optimus, but that time MP-44 comes later to ask Megatron who his new 'friend' is. Or maybe he meets MP-44 as he walks off.

[@jasonhowe1697]

I had wondered if they were trying to do a hybrid between transformers, vehicle voltron and the thunder birds and power rangers

[@toddphillips7113]

its beautiful,thats more than i can say about naval commander armada optimus prime) after all the bad news i got about it. so therefore energy commander (energon optimus prime) is better.
