ROTF Optimus prime

Review Date: June 17, 2009

Reviewer: James Hurber, England

This Optimus prime is very faithful to the 07 movie Optimus who appeared on screen in terms of looks and transformation. This toy has three sound features, one is in robot mode, Optimus saying, "I am Optimus prime" two is the classic transformation sound, three is truck sounds when pressing the button on the back of the cab mode.

Articulation is good, as you can see from the pictures, he has two blades one on each arm, they can be flipped up to be stored behind his arms thou they tend to get blocked by parts that make up his truck mode.

Transforming, this isn't for a rookie, it's pretty hard and the instructions aren't that clear because their done in 2D so they tend to be confusing, get stuck, YouTube it for help there's plenty of videos out there to help. I would rank him as a class 5 instead of Hasbro's rating system that rates legend class figures with the simplest transformations at 2, because of the complexity of his transformation

Truck mode, is only slightly larger than the 07 leader class toy but looks impressive.

I do recommend this toy for older children, for younger ones, adult help maybe required when transforming. The voice feature tends to get a little annoying during transformation due to how the head is designed to fit into vehicle mode so I recommend taking the batteries out.

Overall score 9/10 (voice gets on my nerves during transforming)

Best Transformers figure ever

Seems despite the figure from the first movie being pretty damn good, even Hasbro themselves felt like they could do better the second time round and they were right. I can't believe how much improved in accuracy this figure is. It's slightly bigger too and more posable with much less truck parts hanging off his back. Just overall much tidier and looks great. The truck mode too is an improvement looking far more seamless and even has the back of the truck done too.

Transformation to truck form is a little complex and there was only one bit I struggled with but I soon got the hang of it and have no problem whatsoever.

Lights and sounds are fun and it's nice to see his proper voice announce his name in robot form. Another great feature is that the figure combines with Leader Class Jetfire where Jetfire sorta becomes body armor/jetpak to Prime and makes the figure even more huge.

This is simply the most impressed I've ever been with a Transformers figure and it's worth every penny I paid.

Oh yeah, ignore the photo of the figure at the top. Hasbro's figure photography once again making the figure look far worse than it is and mistransformed.

The only things better on the 2007 model are that it had articulated fingers and rubber tyres. Everything else is far far better on this figure and it's easily by far the best Transformers figure I've owned since the series began in the 80's.

I purchased this for my grandson who is mad on transformers, he is coming up to 4 and is not able to transform it himself so needs help. I think the age is 5 and over but I feel a 5year old would still have a bit of a problem transforming it, however my grandson plays for hours with his transformers and i would recommend these toys

Best Prime toy ever!

This is one of the best Transformer toys of all time, but it is only for serious collectors and not very good for kids because the transformation is very complex.
It says ages 3 and up on the box, but i dont know how anyone under the age of 12 can transform one of these things unsupervised.
That said it is a perfect rendition of movie Optimus Prime, and one of the most accurate toys ever made.
The paint apps are a bit lacking, but theres no lack of detail and cool gimmicks on the toy, and the accuracy is second to none.
Just ignore the photos on here with the black background uploaded by Donnie B Donnie because that isnt the toy you are getting. Those are misleading photos of a poorly done "custom" job.

Nigh perfection

Leader Prime is by far the best and one of most complex transformers I have ever owned (comes second only to Transformers Masterpiece Optimus Prime / Convoy With Trailer - MP-04), and with that factored in, it may not be the best toy for a small child.
Despite (or because of) the above, he is an absolute fun puzzle when first transformed (definitely doable without the manual, and contrary to what others say it doesn't take hours to figure out) and a brilliant toy once you figure it out. Highly posable, and fairly movie accurate, and at £25 a real steal! His only flaw (and the reason he didn't get 5 stars) is that he lacks the gun Transformers Revenge Of The Fallen (Japanese) RA-24 Leader Buster Optimus Prime has.
