Transformers Retro G1 Optimus Prime

[@user-wb1qo6ol4h]

For anyone who can't find this online, the Walmart US listing was a mistake. Not meant to be released until later this month or next and available on Hasbro Pulse too with free shipping to the US and Canada. We should see it up eventually, too, with the Ramhorn and Bombshell set. These sets were sold early, too, at the SDCC event. Don't worry. We'll all have a chance at them. 'Til all are One!

[@SoundClaw09]

The Soundwave release and the Blaster one… Perfection.

[@SixoTF]

Absolutely! And thanks!

[@fallstoclimb14]

I missed the decals on the inside of the trailer but the excitement when mine arrived just took over, it’s so beautiful. And the spring in the trailer, I started ranting at my 7yo - “Look, the spring actually works!!” So happy. More please, Hasbro.

This is easily one of, if not the best toy review I think I’ve ever watched. I normally skip through all review videos but watched every single second of this! Your love and passion for these toys is utterly infectious and made me smile repeatedly! Top work and phenomenal job! Subscribed to your channel! 🙌🏼

[@animeking1357]

For me out of all these G1 Optimus the Missing Link is the one I'm most impressed with. I got the cartoon one a while back and I just love him so much.

[@SixoTF]

Yeah, it's incredible

[@lemonherb1]

Interesting that the launcher for roller actually travels the full distance. The original release had a stop that was added to the mold of international releases so it wouldn't propel Roller out so fast. Of course when I learned about this, I had to cut out the safety stop

[@SixoTF]

Good point!

[@alexanderjentes]

Mate, you just convinced a 42-year-old Transformers fan to embark on a quest to scour the net for a vintage G1 Optimus Prime!!!

[@tfgrandaddy]

Really enjoyed this fantastically thorough showing of Prime. I have never been more down with getting another Optimus trailer. Also really dig how the grey paint covers the section between the blue eyes, a nerdy detail to appreciate but it looks great on the anime Missing Link Prime and it looks great on this one too.

[@SixoTF]

Thank you! And yes, great observation

[@rellko3900]

Ah crap why’d you have to point out that his trailer would look good on C-02, now I want him😭😭

[@HausOfMontague]

This is so siiiick!! I have the Soundwave and Blaster to this and I’m still gushing over their cartoony colors. This version of Prime will do well in my collection. Just something about those clean matte cartoony colors that make these so fun!

[@SixoTF]

Yeah, SW & Blaster were lush and this is just as good

[@evanspeterg]

My original roller was gray. Glad to see him in that color.

[@SixoTF]

It was? From a reissue?

[@TheOldest]

I had the original, it was dark blue.

[@SoundClaw09]

Early editions were both blue and grey.

[@evanspeterg]

I think all of the ones with the metal plates in the trailer walls were gray.

[@CarlyJayJepsen]

Oh gosh I think seeing Roller spring out of the trailer alone has sold me on this 😂 Brilliant vid! I think it speaks to how timeless the G1 Prime figure and design is that even with tweaks here and there, it can still spark joy in those of us who had it when we were kids 😊

[@SixoTF]

100% this!

[@cropdustcaptain3059]

Thanks for a wonderful review! TF Retro is by far my favourite toyline and I look forward to this one. Too bad the releases are so few and far between. Your story about the childhood prime you got from your mother illustrates just how visceral our chidhood memories can be when it comes to good memories like toys

[@SixoTF]

My pleasure! And yes, you’re right!

[@MnemonicSyntax]

Yes! I foolishly didn't buy the trailer for Missing Link, so happy you showed that off Sixo! Brilliant review as usual!

[@SixoTF]

Thank you!

[@colt5189]

Thus far, my favorite original G1 Prime is the Takara reissue from several years ago where they put tampograph shoulder insignias. Though I wish they had painted the silver on the cab instead of stickers. I do also have the Missing Link, which I consider is a separate thing. I do wish they'd do a cartoon type Bumblebee Missing Link where they put the newer head on.

[@SixoTF]

The Chronicle? That was a good reissue imo

[@MarkVersion1]

I love that toon colors. i hope we have a reissue missing link with this deco

[@SixoTF]

I don’t see it happening but never say never I guess

[@MarkVersion1]

[@ting2006jd]

I got the Missing Link but I still want to get one of these. It carries a different presentation. I love the diecast, and ratchet joints. It is just lovely.

[@park78675]

So thrilled for your excitement around this release; I was quite excited as I love the way the retro line looks together thus far, but there seemed to be so much negative sentiment around this release… definitely a highlight of the Retro line, and I’m certainly happy to have it in addition to the Missing Link versions… if anything I may have skipped the C-02 Missing Link in favour of this one (in addition to C-01), but that just says how happy I am with this release.

[@Arbiter-mk4ew]

I do hope Walmart brings this one for Christmast, I would love to have a G1 optimus and the Deco looks good

[@SixoTF]

Fingers crossed

[@Deltacon84]

This amazing. Just to let you know even the original G1s had multiple molds and the reissues too had different molds as did Magnus and even thought they look the same if you look close you will see lots of suble variants in the details and mold striations and the inner thigh style varies a lot as does the cab casting and feet. So this one is probably an entirely new mould replicating the same toy but updated with modern tolerances.

[@Perradocx]

Very pleased to see the Roller launcher intact. Having acquired C-01 this year as my first taste of Battle Convoy, the absence of that little black chunk was my one mark against an overall excellent package. The dedication of Evan and the team on this release and the Retro G1 initiative as a whole really impresses. (Sunstreaker next please!)

[@SixoTF]

Totally agree

[@markpeterson6132]

I really enjoy your videos! Your energy & positivity is so refreshing!! Keep up the fun work!!

[@MellowGaming]

There's very little I find awkward with this one. The stripe being done that way it is feels odd, but I get what they were going for. Everything else far outweighs that though. Looks spot on. They must have tweaked elements of that original mould somewhat. The fact folding the arms back is so smooth on this one suggests something was done. Millimetres shaved off somewhere. Or mould degradation just did us a solid. I need a new G1 prime soon. When I got the Missing Link one I noticed my childhood Prime has gained some new wear and tear. The seats inside the cab seem to be breaking. Part of one got in the way of the head being spun around. He's retired from transforming now. This one may be his successor in that regard.

[@SixoTF]

It’s well worth it imo!

[@scolioreset]

I searched online on Walmart’s website in Canada and it’s not there at all. I have a better chance at finding the Missing Link Convoy C-01. I think the OG toy visual has aged incredibly well despite being a “block”. Robots come in all shapes and forms and we either like one design or we don’t. Its simplicity has endured. And I say that as someone who has never seen the G1 in person. I’ll have the G1 Legacy release and maybe later I’ll get the Missing Link Convoy. I can only respect this release here for what it is because I personally prioritise articulation and engineering for the range of poseability.

[@user-wb1qo6ol4h]

The Walmart US listing was a mistake. Not meant to be released until later this month or next. We should see it up eventually too with the Ramhorn and Bombshell set. These sets were sold early too at the SDCC event. Don't worry.

Hasbro really does know how to annoy Peeps. Why on earth was the Spring Loaded Launcher included HERE and Not on the Missing Link? Come on man, come on.

[@SoundClaw09]

Because Tamara made the missing link one?

[@PacoGrande76]

This is the first retro reissue release I'm skipping because I'm quite happy with the Missing Link version. But I do like that they went full toon with the deco on this. But those screw holes are a massive eyesore for me. I think they should have modified the design to hide those fasteners. Or just used a grey sticker for the stripe instead of paint and cover them up. One thing I'm confused about is that my original 1984 Prime toy when I was a kid did not have a functioning launcher. No idea why. I didn't even know it had the launcher until people started complaining when the ML version didn't have it. Maybe mine was broken and I never noticed?

[@chrisalan457]

Nicely done review! Hasbro has done a great job with this reissue. The cab used here is the same mold as the 2018 Walmart exclusive version which had all new tooling so in a sense is relatively new. Can't wait to get this!

[@SixoTF]

So someone else mentioned this to me - it's a rumour I have heard before! I've dropped Evan from Hasbro a note to confirm either way bc of course I am intrigued now haha. And thanks!

[@SixoTF]

So I had word back from Evan - he doesn't believe it to be the case. He says he didn't work on the Walmart Prime specifically (he did on the Devastator though) and he isn't aware of any new tooling happening for those reissues. He did add the caveat that it's possible it was newly tooled at some point prior to this and he just isn't aware of it, but apparently it's unlikely for this specific 2019 release.

[@chrisalan457]

@SixoTF Thanks for the info and reaching out to Evan. I thought it could of been since there is a trademark and date stamp on the back of the right shoulder that says "2018 Hasbro SA Tomy Vietnam". The original and concurrent reissues don't have trademark stamp on the cab but on trailer instead. Either way thanks for reading my responses.

[@willisjackson7029]

@@SixoTF The Devastator was altered and all of the springs were removed from the forearms and Mixmaster’s body. So no shooting action with that reissue.

[@leftygurl]

im really excited to hopefully get this guy, it’s been a great year for optimus primes with the 86 commander and the legacy deluxe and all that, but i haven’t been able to play with the g1 fella yet, barely seen him in person, and this looks like a really lovely version of him. might try and snag some reprolabels though, the trailer in particular feels incomplete without the nonsensical sci-fi detail inside or the blue and white stripe outside. still, he’s gonna be a great add to my collection.

I still have the 20th Anniversary reissue I bought some 20 years (which came with a talking badge and a copy of the Marvel G1 comic issue 1), but this one would be a very nice version of the toy to get had I not gotten that previous one back then. A good one for anyone to get nowadays, even.

I’m gonna need a compartment specifically for my Optimus stuff.

[@SixoTF]

Yeah it’s lovely

[@lemonsandants]

Ya I'm gonna say, some of these are probably a cost decision. Not having the command center stickers in the trailer. Overall, it's probably cheaper to produce now than what they had back then. Looking at this video the plastic and or the paint is a fraction of the cost. I'm not saying it's cheaper looking. Have to take a look in person. Those screw holes on the trailer are really an eyesore for me. I noticed them in the original 1984 version but at least the sticker covered it. Hopefully the plastics for the leg and arm rotations are better. Because the first Walmart reissue was really poor quality.

[@Jase583]

Definitely needs some repro labels for the inside of the trailer

[@newjerseydamo]

This would have been an instant purchase for me if the they remained faithful to the original trailer side decals, and including the sticker sheets to apply, with the rub symbol on top. Can probably buy them from a third party, but yeah, just a real shame to an otherwise very nice looking product.

[@williamthompson5504]

The cab mold is new too. Well, it was used in 2018. When Prime got an Asian exclusive reissue in 2012, that was the final use of the classic mold for cab and trailer. The thing literally fell apart. Great video BTW. Im not picking at you. Im a reissue nerd. Also the trailer has a slight angle when hitched to Optimus Prime. Im still getting one if I can find it and it's not expensive.

Someone below wrote "Optimus Prime lives!" Yes, he always lives. And, relives, and relives, and relives. Or, Bumblebee. Or, Blaster. Or, some version of Megatron that's not a realistic-looking gun. I have two of these reissues, a Hallmark ornament and several other toys called Optimus Prime that are trucks (and one is a Matchbox-style car). And, I know someone will write "well, don't buy it, then, hurrrrr." But, it's just a shame that, in 40 years, Transformers has become a commodity. The neat, new stuff takes 40 steps to change (and are more often than not the same cadre of the same dozen or so characters, as well), and the retro reissues are always Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Soundwave, Starscream, Blaster, yawn. Oh well, I hope those who buy this get enjoyment from it that lasts longer than the brief dopamine hit of forgetting you're middle aged now and not a kid.
