Why does Hasbro keep changing the voyager OP? Movie 1 or ROTF/HFTD version would have been better than that thing! After watching the new trailer this is an epic fail. Where are the Jetfire engine boosters, the huge cannons, swords? What is up with the forearms, look like the big "backpack" that hangs off movie 1 voyager.

I just hope the TF: Prime figures look better than this. Things were looking so good until this abomination today.

A couple of things:

1. I am curious of the actual size of the figure it self. Someone brought up the the possibility that it might be a slightly bigger than deluxe figure. Definitely would like to know and see if Hasbro is really sizing down its line.

2. The robot mode looks good except the arm kibble kills it for me. But at least the transformation looks like an ode to the G1 figure

3. I am wondering, if in combined mode, is it the same as the jet powered powered prime featured in the teaser and if the "butterfly" wings are removable.

Butterfly Optimus Prime -- attack!

The only surprise is that it doesn't have monkey arms.

Pass.

Wow, Prime has quite a big reefer trailer. A third of that trailer should be devoted to ice cream or Coca-Cola

So this is what they were talking about when they came up with PMSL?!

Some days you're the windshield and some days you're the bug. THIS is one over-sized, over-priced bug. Somebody please, break the mold for this figure and then have the mold-maker flogged repeatedly. It's safe to assume that most of the fandom can now feel officially insulted by Hasbro.

Linked the story earlier on today. Any credit?

Truck, Monkey or Butterfly?

He definitely is reminiscent of RID Magnus, but he also makes me think of Armada Prime combined with his trailer, especially the gold pieces above his head remind me of the crests on Armada Prime's head.

Also, the new hands and new feet in combined mode makes me wonder if there's an alternate head that is not being shown. There probably isn't, but it would look more proportional if there were...Oh, and where are the launching projectiles mentioned in the description? He looks to be missing those.
