Transformers Studio Series GAMER EDITION 03 War For Cybertron Voyager Class OPTIMUS PRIME Review

[@ChatterBorg]

If they end up making a Bruticus I PRAY they make them all voyagers and Onslaught a Leader so they can have the SIZE and BUDGET to be the best possible mainline representations of the characters

[@PrimeVsPrime]

I agree! Giving us a DELUXE Onslaught back in 2012 was a crime! 🤣

[@marauderprime1353]

Didn't a third-party company Make a Fall of Cybertron Onslaught that was compatible with the 2012 Deluxe Fall of Cybertron Combaticons?

[@ChatterBorg]

@@marauderprime1353 yeah but it’s basically impossible to find now

[@marauderprime1353]

They're called lucky cat not cat box

[@coffeeinhandproductions3238]

I may be biased, but I really want a Legacy Brutucus before an FOC as cool as that would be. As Voyagers I almost feel Onslaught would have to a Commander class similiar to Motormaster to accommodate all the combined mode. But either/or Combaticons please.

[@shinkojima8903]

What's annoying about the fists in alt mode is that it's the perspective you usually see the car from in the game. Still, it looks like a lot of fun to play around with.

[@owene2530]

I mean not like you'll ever see it on the shelf backwards

[@angelmenjivar9706]

The asymmetrical axe is also the main look for the axe in the war for cybertron ds version

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Oh that’s wicked! Thanks for the info!

[@Resilient_Primal]

I received mine!! The joints are fantastic! and I love it! Only down side is the hands in the back of the alt mode! But I can get over that. Absolutely great figure

[@PrimeVsPrime]

I agree! The hands kinda suck!

[@thelandshark7934]

Could you just remove one of the arms and make it less intrusive

[@dsbeats5657]

To be fair, who’s gonna keep prime in vehicle mode 😂

[@SavimusProductions]

It’s funny that you mention a spin attack, because in Fall of Cybertron’s ending, if you picked Megatron to fight Optimus, Optimus can use the very spin attack you stated that you wished was in the game.

[@Mashup991]

Hopefully they continue with these gamer edition releases, I'd like to see Fall of Cybertron Optimus Prime eventually

[@PrimeVsPrime]

I agree! I’d love to see FOC a little more than WFC haha! Bring on JAZZ!

@@PrimeVsPrime Don't forget the Seekers, Soundwave, Shockwave, Grimlock, Combaticons, and many, many others

Amazing figure ! Lets hope they make Bruticus . That would be 🔥

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Bruticus would be amazing!

[@transformersanimation]

I think they would do what they did for devastator by releasing multiple figures to make one

[@Mashup991]

I agree, and if his figure resonates well then maybe they could do Metroplex too

[@nicholasthomas.7553]

Bro that would actually be cool and like a grimlock too

[@DBWalks2010]

I agree with you!

[@jacks1678]

The original matches the concept artwork. This new version matches the final in-game model.

[@PulsarPrime]

I'm so happy we're getting WFC and FOC characters recognised in modern days and we have figures of them. The high moon games are simply the best and everyone loves them, I think we'd all like to see them come back, either as a re-release or remaster - or have the prequel game, or "journey" from Cybertron to Earth game that high moon had planned. As far as this figure goes, it's good - my only wishes are that he was taller to fit with the rest of the primes, and could hide the hip bumper better. Aside from that it's fine (trying to overlook the hollowness), but I'd have also liked if he had the metallic paint the promo art had as it's a bit misleading. Lastly a removable matrix would be nice since he did have it out of his chest in the game. Overall though it's a good representation! Bring back the High Moon games 💜❤️

[@Cerbedits]

I Hope We're Getting A Grimlock

[@Gojiraman2005]

Can we all just agree that this is the first Optimus Prime from the studio series line to come with the Matrix of Leadership?

[@jasielmarrero2659]

I buy it today and when I open it the Matrix wasn't there

[@VasishthaSookraj]

Man this figure looks so good! 🤩🔥 The WFC design for Prime is in my Top 3 designs for him so I’m definitely jumping on this one! Great review man!

[@WiSMs]

Thank you for including the reverse transformations!

[@Rodimusprimerib]

I have the Original release but his size does make him look better with all the other war/fall of cybertron figures. Really happy to get them out of storage and play with them again. Hopefully Megs is even bigger than prime as i loved the original release but he is small

I LOVE chunky Transformers, it's a remnant of my childhood so I am instantly interested in this. Thanks for the review! Also, mandatory "remaster/ republish the Cybertron games!"

[@chongyandizzok5264]

To potentially hide the hands in alt mode, take off the right forearm and then with the empty space, bend the left arm at the bicep, I haven’t tried it yet as I don’t have the figure, it’s just a thought

[@theStridingRebel]

Might be the first time I've ever seen PrimevsPrime not be the first person to review a transformer toy

[@bluechills53]

Definitely not the only one to think this but I never liked FoC designs for Optimus and Megatron, it was a major downgrade in comparison to WfC.

[@Transformarts]

Why not the designs are peak

[@bluechills53]

@Transformarts they became thick and stocky looking.

[@seanagulan9481]

This, G1, Volvo version, Animated, Bayverse and Armada is one of my favorite Optimus Prime figures.

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Ah yes! Most Optimus figures are amazing!🔥

[@JustIceWasTaken]

finally you reviewed him, i've had him for a week. i almost never get a figure before you review it

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Thank you so much for still checking out the review! 🙌🏻🔥

[@Natee178]

I feel like there is plenty about the new one other then scale that beats out the old one. The thighs on the older ones alt mode looks worse to me then the hands in the back of the new one. I love the game designs and seeing as the new one is objectively more accurate and better articulated it’s definitely worth the upgrade for me.

[@dankerbell]

agreed, the old one was good for its time but the new one is just so perfectly proportioned

[@orcastrike7750]

The shoulder pauldrons are also more game-accurate with the newer figure

[@rileypreece8459]

Im saying this now, Make A god Damn war for cybertron Trypticon Please!!!!!!!!!!! amazing review :)

[@Mashup991]

Omg I almost forgot about Trypticon, and his alt mode could be the Nemesis ship from FOC

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Thanks so much! 🔥🔥🔥

[@mmrproductions3176]

I’d kill for the Fall of Cybertron GrimLock and the Dinobots! Also love this figure, can’t wait to get more! May the 4th be with you.

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Me too! It would be awesome to see them get the SS86 dinobot treatment! Happy May 4th!

[@megatron1921]

I hope they gave us the autobot soldiers cuz they all look badasses especially those badasses bots with the machine guns on there arms it will be a dream come true

[@dgotcookies]

Man I still can't get over earthrise prime he's so good lol

[@ikanhazw1n]

If yoy open the axe, the space between the blade plugs into the gun to make it symmetrical

Now I need a fall of cybertron prime and jazz

[@PulsarPrime]

Praying for a titan class WFC Omega Supreme, Trypticon, or FOC Metroplex

[@PrimeVsPrime]

That would be insane! 🔥🔥🔥

[@EvolvedGodzilla360]

In my opinion, best figure from the best games they have ever made for transformers

I bought mine today in Aliexpress for christmas gift. Man i thinks this is the most beautiful version of Optimus

[@Cwronaga216]

I still really want a studio series Dark of the Moon leader class Decepticon Devcon because even though he got very little screen time he was such a massive and unique design with such a cool military alt mode

[@poykehmusic]

I have some 2010 WFC series Transformes _(OP, BEE):_ awesome robots and alt mode, intricate transformation... But, beside the side and the weapons I like my Deluxe Class figures way more.

[@PrimeVsPrime]

The deluxe figures are incredible! The 2010 Optimus especially 🔥🔥🔥

[@Cwronaga216]

I really hope they give us a studio series of the war for Cybertron aerialbots Jetfire silver bolts and air raid

[@alxporrini8563]

I bought mine this morning when Amazon restocked on him. He'll be coming in on the 29th of May. This will also be my 4th Optimus Prime fingure overall.

[@lex_rodriguez]

Barely found this figure today at a Gamestop! Absolutely love it!

[@dankmemer2774]

7:07 Pu…Pu…Putitinmyass. I feel like if the scaled up the deluxe class of old, modernized it and slightly retool it so that some bits cleaned up better, it would have been a way better option. It would save them on cost since they won’t have to design a figure from scratch which means they’ll have more budget for paint and hollow gaps.

[@jaxonprime9172]

One thing I pray for from this line would be a titan class wfc trypticon 🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@Quantum0110]

Here we gamer prime is here!!!!

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Back & bigger than ever haha! 🤩🤣

[@reddimus11]

I’m looking forward to any future upgrade kit. Articulated hands, some covers for the thighs, a cover for the rear of the truck, and maybe a new axe? All would all be welcome improvements for an already excellent figure!!

[@Hellflame100]

bro this looks so cool

[@PrimeVsPrime]

Agreed! It’s robot is very nice! Not too keen on vehicle mode haha

[@jc1164]

lucked out and got the last one on the shelf at Target today.

Nice. I saw one at Target a couple weeks back and I didn't pick it up and I'm totally regretting it now.

[@jc1164]

@DetroitEnki I know the feeling, saw the Optimus prime masterpiece at toys r us years back and had the same thing happen. Since then I do my best to not pass on things.

[@ZaCloudo]

one thing this design does well is making optimus' truck mode look good without needing any sort of trailer

[@jaymontoya5245]

Fantastic transforming. This Optimus Prime is way better than 2010 version 👍👍👍👍👍😎

Definitely a lot more straightforward haha! 🤩

[@DBWalks2010]

C'mon, be honest, this modern version doesn't even look like the character from the video game. It looks like more a ko version!

​@@KingCujoBlueKO as in a good way?

[@jonathanj.3695]

"Optimus is a *_prime_* example of that." Nice. 😎 Sure, this action figure is missing a few details, but they're nothing that I can't fix with a few stick-on decals, model plastic and some Gundam model paint.

[@connor8655]

I don’t own either the new studio series or classic one but I definitely like the look of the new one the best. Just my personal opinion. That head sculpt is immaculate

[@deadaquarius488]

This would be great retool for beast hunters prime

[@omarkabir3760]

you know what, that’s actually a good idea

[@sirifjfjdjsjdufjdjdjdcjcjd3157]

It needs to be upscaled tho

[@PrimeVsPrime]

That is a VERY good idea! 🤩

[@GoldenMoonOfDeltaCommentaries]

ngl while FOC optimus is bad the FOC magnus is worse as its just a reissue of prime with a differnt head but in the DLC that added magnus to the multiplayer he has his own altmode and robot mode

[@Bmontepeque11]

This is such a cool figure! I hope they even do some of the more obscure ones like Ultra Magnus or Hot Rod! Also, now that I have seen the comparisons between this and the 2010 release I can't help but see that the 2010 one is too thin, but I live them both! ❤️

[@Martynde]

Ultra Magnus and Motormaster from the DS games would look amazing as toys. Even though the models looked terrible in the game, the character artwork still looked great.

[@SonicHedgehog1991]

I find it odd that they bother giving him a Matrix but no finger articulation so how is he supposed to hold it?

[@PrimeVsPrime]

I agree! I guess in their defence he never holds it in the game (I don’t believe) but still would’ve been nice to open his hands

[@04liverydesign7]

the arms in robot mode just ruined it for me, and i had plans of buying it, what i always like about the deluxe version of optimus and starscream were the details, they had the same level as in game, will try to find a deluxe if possible, even if i love the size of voyager, this time the deluxe were better.

[@Simple-Animator12203]

This is the version of a Cybertronian Optimus Prime that I need for my series and my collection. Also, I can't be the only person who thinks that video game Barricade's alt-mode looks a little like a Batmobile.

[@jerrogs]

This is why I rarely pre-order nowadays. I like the design and scale of the figure BUT i really hate the unfinished back, hollow legs and unfinished looking panels. I feel like a couple more QC passes during production would've made this figure awesome. I do like the axe and accessories. I will pass for now, I will wait for the Fall of Cybertron SS. Thanks for the review.

Been a year since I got this figure, and I just found out he's big enough to pull the MP-10 trailer, and the blasters slots are big enough to fit the trailers coupling

[@OrionnPax]

Idk if this is a common problem, but my gun hand came very loose to the point where it came off EVERY TIME I transformed it. And the waist too, super shaky.

[@gundamandyugioh4184]

I say the new one is a lot better than the original one. I had it when I was 6 and I had and still have issues with it. It’s head fell off so often that I eventually lost it, the gun got warped somehow in a move, and it’s a nightmare to pose. The new one has none of these issues and is super fun to pose and transform. I prefer the new transformation over the old one as well and plus the matrix is a great detail that I like

[@sneakrzzz8669]

That happened to me too bro I much prefer this and rarely transform my Optimus primes anyways

[@matthewreynoso6904]

I like this figure! Really wish the vehicle mode had an extra panel to close up the back of the truck so that it could hide the arms!

[@Earthpet711]

I guess you didn't notice that you could use the two slots on the handle just below the ax blade to attach it to the ion blaster in vehicle mode. It looks more centered that way and you can open up the double-sided axe for symmetry.

[@LesbianCacodemon]

I’ve already ordered this Optimus imo he looks awesome I hope that at the least we eventually get a figure of every playable character from the cybertron games

[@boltsy1395]

The only drawback and complaint I have for the figure is the way rear view looks in vehicle mode but everything else is just amazing.

[@Jetthehawk1994]

I'm hoping they do make the FOC Combaticons and that they come out as voyagers. The deluxes from 2012 were 4/5 pretty decent (the reason I say that is because Onslaught was actually the weakest of them in my opinion) and Brawl had a tendency to fall over because his feet were small and he didn't have any heels. Having them as voyagers would definitely fix those issues and make for a better combiner in my opinion. They did that with POTP Predaking so why not do the same with the Combaticons? Finally, I hope they get released as a boxset because I'm not really a fan of how the combiners get released one piece at a time. It just makes completing the combiner So much harder.

[@Peaceful0Soldier]

I think it would be better to have them all as deluxes and Onslaught as a voyager. They would 100% get more sales and its definitely more likely.

[@s.dreviews7208]

Where I do understand where you're coming from in regards to the back of Prime's vehicle mode, let's be real here.. Are you 'really' going to display him on your shelf with the back of his vehicle mode facing forwards? Or even in vehicle mode for that matter? The minor bits of missing detail aside, I think he's a great figure, I can't wait for mine to show up on my doorstep. I'm hoping we'll get Megatron at some point, because I sadly missed out on the O.G deluxe from back in the day.
