Crimson Dynamo has shared some pictures of the brand new Optimash Prime figure from the Mr. Potato Head line. This looks like a fun figure and the addition of a face that closely resembles Optimus Prime's voice actor, Peter Cullen, makes it an even better spud! You can click on the photos below to view the full size images.

Behold - Optimash Prime!!

Here's what Crimson Dynamo had to say about this figure ...

Positives: How about "best Transformers merchandise EVER"? He's a potato. And he's a robot. He comes with a little flat-nose truck. He has a removable mustache. He has a removable faceplate...but get this - he looks like Cullen underneath! This toy couldn't be more amazing. Go! Buy it!

Negatives: None. This thing is pure awesomeness.

Final comments: I'm speechless.

Thanks for sharing these pictures with us, Crimson Dynamo!
