Post your reviews of Transformers toys in this topic. Videos can be posted in a topic as well as text reviews and images. Please keep each topic dedicated to one specific toy (i.e. DOTM Deluxe Class Optimus Prime") that has actually been released.
We've seen video reviews of the new Transformers Generations: Fall of Cybertron Deluxes Shockwave and Jazz, so we might as well take a look their case mate Optimus Prime. Seibertron.com member Misterfanwank has uploaded a review of Optimus Prime in his new FOC body, which we've embedded below.
Sorry but the smaller size is a big turn off for me. Especially at higher the prices. I'll wait for a sale and if these are gone before a sale ever happens then oh well.

This review has made me want this toy even more now.

Well, Optimus's gun in the game is based on the one he uses in the Prime cartoon, so I guess it'd make sense for his gun in toy form to look different from G1 Optimus's Ion Blaster.

This toy has it's perks. It's fun to play with in contrast to the puzzle that is the WFC OP. My only concern with this figure is the softness of the plastic. It's like it's just made out of ABS. It's so light mine already have stress marks on the arm swivel
To those who still wondering to get this guy or not, I highly recommend him. Alot of joints(for a deluxe), solid bot/alt mode, and accurate to the in-game look. IMO this guy is better than FOC Shockie, although FOC Shockie is a close second.
PS : To those who wonder if he'll get a Voyager or not, I think he will. Cause why would they make a Voyager FOC Soundwave(A sub villain) but yet not Optimus(The main protagonist)of the game? So yeah there's a really high chance this guy will get a Voyager class.
I'd rather have it that TakaraTomy should consider making a Masterpiece. They had the Movie Masterpiece line. Hows about a Game Masterpiece toy line. This design deserves a better representation. Just wishful thinking. Although this mold is considerably good enough for the time being.

Hmm I dont think they will though...After all their Movie Masterpiece line only have two figures... But it does sound nice though. One major con comes to mind...Our wallets will weep >.>...Very very badly @_@....
