Motto: "I ain't got time to bleed!"
Weapon: Gattling Gun
YouTube reviewer and Seibertron.com member Wallas has managed to get his hands on the upcoming Transformers Prime Weaponizer Optimus Prime. The figure comes armed to the teeth with a dual gatling guns gimmick that can be deployed in both vehicle and robot modes. Check out his early bird review of the Leader Class sized figure below.

Weapon: Switch Blade Tail
Very disappointing. I mean, we knew the toy wasn't going to win any awards for being totally awesome, but it drops the ball in so many areas...

The gimmick itself is really neat. I do like it, even as silly as it is. The transformation is terrible and the back pack and hollow legs...I don't even have the words.

Ehh... its better than Optimus Maximus.

Plus he has a opening chest...hollow inside... but it opens. I can only imagine we will get a third party "matrix pack" to stuff in it eventually.

Plus its a official way to get a decent gun for RID optimus.

:shock: The Red reset switch is Prime's penis :shock: #-o :BANG_HEAD: :sad:

The figure itself is very disappointing, too much back kibble and hollow parts. The gun is nice though.

That's the only thing I like about this figure - it certainly has comedy value!

The hollow legs look worse than the Classics mold he mentions, the backpack (esp. when weapons are deployed) looks terrible. Even the truck mode, which I would not display often, is so disappointing that this alone puts me off buying it. No hips swivel. Elongated hands. So many things I don't like about this figure.

Weapon: Null-Ray Rifle
So much potential...wasted. It seems like they just went all out with the weaponinzer gimmick to the point where both the bot and alt mode really suffer. I mean, that huge backpack is pretty much there only because it has to house all of those weapons.

In a way, though, I'm a little glad this figure sucks. Saves me money. :grin:

I do like the gimmick, his size and some of the detail. I can even live with the shoulder pads being small. But I can't stop looking at his red hoarse meat....... The hollow legs in robot mode and the back of the cab. I will not pay outrageous Internet prices for this, and I will hunt down a FE Prime before I get this... >:oP

Wow- ya know I actually like this. It is very show-accurate regardless of the backpack. If you must justify said backpack look at it as an assault pack or something like our modern military wears. I LOVE THIS THING!
