In-Hand Images: Transformers Prime "Beast Hunters" Voyager Optimus Prime

Actually a cool looking figure. i'm still getting a dotm skyhammer feel though , so far the only autobot BH i will pick up. That swords sweet as well .

I LOVE that face. Ticked off Optimus is ticked off.



And he looks bigger than PRiD Voyager OP, which is good.

(I also suspect we'll be getting some in-hand images of Predaking soon.)

The more of this mold that I see, the more I like it. Especially the jetpack.

Strangely enough I dig his new head. Its sqishey (sp?) face Prime.

This figure looks more and more like a good idea with bad execution.

I want to like this figure, but it just looks too simple. It doesn't even appear as though the feet can be placed flat.

This would be better as a Deluxe.

This must be a move on Hasbro's part to purposefully dumb down TFs; I can't imagine that the toy designers could get this bad at making interesting, poseable TFs in only a few years, especially after seeing the level of complexity in the ROTF figures and post-ROTF Generations figures.

Hey man, ROTF Jetfire and Rampage are pretty tough to transform. That's why I rarely touch Rampage nowadays.

I take back what I said when we first saw this guy. I am liking his jet pack, though I am going to ditch his sword for one or two of power master prime's black guns, oh or maybe Dotm voyager prime's gun, or maybe make an even longer run on sentence.

Holly crap! Megatron will run scared of Optimus when he sees his face

I was getting the same vibe. I couldn't quite place my finger on it.

I was thinking that too when I picked up Voyager Soundwave. Not the best fig, but pretty hefty. Hav'n't got a deluxe fog since Vehicon, but Smokescreen looks big as well.

Optimus is pissed.

Dammit, Hasbro. Stop stealing my money.
