The more I see this sculpt, the more I come to like it. It's really grown on me recently. If I could, I'd definitely buy just the cab of this. I love it in vehicle mode, and so-so like it in robot mode, though it still beats the crap out of Voyager Prime's bot mode.

Lower price or not, this figure is absolute pants.

HasBLO should have brought us Jetwing Optimus Prime in the States, because, you know, that version ACTUALLY APPEARED IN THE FRAKKIN' MOVIE.

Stupid bugbot piece of crap. Oh well.

Yeah cause, there's absolutely no way that Hasbro can ever even hope to release him release Jetwing Prime. Ever.

Then explain his appearance in a Hasbro cabinet at the recent toy show

That's nice. I can get it for my 12 year old for Christmas for less, so when he brakes it, I won't cringe. LOL!!!

I Agree with user897,The DOTM Ultimate optimus prime is a horrible toy.

I don't speak from on-line pics experience. I speak from a point of view of actually owning the toy then returning it.

I Bought the Dotm ultimate optimus prime toy on-line a month+ago when walmart.com first put it up for sale on their web site.

I transformed the toy for a few hours,played with all the parts & so forth.

Lucklily I was able to print out a Receipt from Walmart.com. then I was able to return the DOTM ultimate optime prime toy at my nearest walmart store for a 100% refund & get my money back. I certainly wasn't going to be stuck with this & be out $67+dollars.

the thing I hated/loathed most about this toy was the awful over sized beyond huge mech tech weapon. it's too be,heavy & further ruins the look of a already horrible toy.

second the robot head is too tiny & looks even more tiny in combined robot+trailer super robot mode.

third,if your looking for a new age decently poseable super robot mode,then this toy fails on all accounts.

fourth,this thing reminds me of armada leader sized optimus prime who wears a brick for pants.

FIFTH,All the extra doo dads & whatever further ruin this toy. why exactly did the toy need 2 yellow things next to each side of the robot head. is he picking up satelight tv/radio.

Sixth,again the mech tech weapon doesn't store properly on to the robot back pack. thanks to the weapon being too heavy & all the connector ports being to weak/loose.

Seventh,IMHO,Only get this toy if you want to throw out/storage the trailer & display the toy in smaller $27 usa ultra sized robot mode. as the smaller robot mode is leaps & bounds better than the 2007 voyager & HFTD 2009 Voyager sized optimus prime toy. Honestly this is the best smaller sized movie verse optimus prime toy if you don't like leader sized toys.

Personally,this toy is epic failure as it's got so many negatives & very few positives. to make matters worse,this super robot mode wasn't even featured in the DOTM Movie.

Why exactly did hasbro give us this brick piece a thrash instead of the DA-15 Jetwing optimus prime toy. Jetwing was featured in the DOTM Movie.

I trully hope & pray hasbro releases the takara DA-15 dotm jetwing optimus prime as a Toys R Us store exclusive.

To everyone who keeps complaining about this OP version not being in the movie, if I remember correctly every movie line has had figures that aren't in that movie. Look at all the repaints we get of figures, game based figures, non-transforming vehicles modes, ever buy any of those? Yes, Ultimate OP is a brick but it's a kickass brick and like all figures it's not perfect. I felt like a kid again when I got mine this week and I'll feel the same way if JetWing OP ever has a USA release. Look at the gallery here on this site and others, it will grow on you. It is definitely a great add to my collection, especially the OP subgroup.

Yea. It will grow on my 12 year old, I'm sure, but I'm sorry, Jetwing Prime Kills this thing in every possible way. Add a trailer to Jetwing Prime and it is OVER.

Some only buy the TF toys that appeared in the cartoon or movie.

Usually most of the time non-movie/non-cartoon TF toys stand a greater chance of warming shelfs/pegs more.

Usually the cartoon/movie TF toys have a better track record of selling better on the secondary market.

Sure their are some exceptions for some non-cartoon/non-movie toys selling decent & be worth decent money on the secondary market. but the majority of the the,the TF toys on the cartoon/movie sell out faster in stores & do better on the secondary market.

IMHO,if one dislikes/loathes armada leader sized brick pants optimus Prime. then one most likely won't be a fan of this dotm ultimate brick pants optimus prime.

IMHO,If your a fan of the new age super poseable transformers. and noth that much of a fan of the brick formers. Then personally this dotm ultimate optimus toy most likely isn't for you.

Does anyone have a pic of this Armada Brick Pants Optimus Prime? I'd really like to know what it looks like in comparison to the Ultimate OP.
