| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890900) Posted by Hip-Hoptimus Rime on February 27th, 2009 @ 8:45am CST Absolutely buying Megatron! This Prime mold, OTOH, not so sure about anymore. I know it's impossible to tell from pics, but the materials look pretty cheap. And those blue wings on his back look out of place, distractingly so. I'll have to see him in person, but right now I might skip Leader Primet this time around. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890901) Posted by culturemagnet on February 27th, 2009 @ 8:46am CST why did they design Megatron to have teeth? I guess it's more sinister, but not realistic.. unless there's some energon-flavored chewing gum I've never heard about. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890902) Posted by Dead Metal on February 27th, 2009 @ 8:47am CST Megatron seriously needs movie accurate paint on his face it just looks weird and lame that way. That PRime is almost movie accurate. I'm holding out for the premium versions for these. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890903) Posted by D-340 on February 27th, 2009 @ 8:48am CST Nice, these two just hit my "must buy" list. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890904) Posted by Oilspill on February 27th, 2009 @ 8:52am CST Looks like Soundwave just told Megatron the one about the yellow-headed Fembot. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890908) Posted by Giant Purple Griffin on February 27th, 2009 @ 8:58am CST Niiice on both counts. I'd like to see the back and sides of the box on Prime to see if it mentions any kind of combining feature with Jetfire. I wonder if they are going to make a Voyager Megatron too like they did last time. If this Prime doesn't combine, I'll probably just stick with the Voyagers. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890910) Posted by Immortal Starscream on February 27th, 2009 @ 9:00am CST i would so buy megatron, but..... that gimp arm is just... ugg | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890914) Posted by omega666 on February 27th, 2009 @ 9:04am CST It says "Try Me" on Megatron's crotch. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890916) Posted by typh0id on February 27th, 2009 @ 9:09am CST Loving Megatron...Glad I skipped the first one...Will have to get Prime too to go with him...

LOL, good one! And I didn't notice it until I read omega's comment. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890934) Posted by dragons on February 27th, 2009 @ 9:37am CST ill be getting this prime this one is sleeker and better looking windows. how do we know that there is going to be premium series someone once said if we hold for premuim we may not get it its 50/50 chance maybe the premium was just one time thing all we know. it would be great if hasbro tells us if there is a premium series coming to the line so went wont be buiying 2 of the same figures like the last film & maybe theyll who is in & whos not in the premium series. the ark must be pretty mad that megatrons head is exposed his head looks just like concept art versions with better detail from the first leader class megaton | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890941) Posted by Agent 007 on February 27th, 2009 @ 9:54am CST both will be mine! Does anybody know if megs is being released May 29th or does he come later? | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890944) Posted by SJ21 on February 27th, 2009 @ 10:06am CST The new Prime looks more movie-accurate than the first one. I am glad I missed the leader class from the first movie. I will be buying the new one. I don't think I will be buying another leader class Megatron though. One is enough for me. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890950) Posted by Kryptikore on February 27th, 2009 @ 10:16am CST This so far is a much better improvement over 07's leader class Megatron. I can't wait to find out about his misshapened left arm. I'm almost possitive that he was so damaged from the allspark that it was the best the Decepticons could do to revive him! That face: it's just awesome! | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890984) Posted by First-Aid on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:00am CST
Best. Post. Ever. As for the figs, I'm not a big fan of the orange swords on Prime. I wish they would have stuck with the sword appearance from the premium version. As for Megs, he just looks badass. I can understand the so-called "gimp" arm if it is true and they rebuilt him from the parts of other bots (who may not necessarily be Megsy's size)...after all, that arm got blown off at some point in the last movie (watch when he gets dropped into the ocean...I seem to remember that anyways). | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890987) Posted by FracturedKoi on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:04am CST My only concern with the Revenge of the Fallen movie toys are these "mech-alive" bits and pieces. How are these tiny little gears going to hold up over time? Other than that, they look great! And Megatron really looks damn good! | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (890993) Posted by Starfield on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:13am CST If I didn't know better, I'd say Megatron looks downright happy. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891006) Posted by roll out on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:30am CST Im going ot on a limb but i think those treads and feet are from brawl. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891017) Posted by 009* on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:40am CST So does this new Prime even have a gun? | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891020) Posted by iFail on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:52am CST
Exactly what I was thinking, wouldn't be surprised if after he gets destroyed (again), and brought back from the dead for the third installment, he'll have a fully G1 head and be called Galvatron. Because, you know, Michael Bay is just that original and ahead of the curve [/sarcasm] Seriously though, I'm glad I didn't pick up any of the leader figures from last time, especially Megsy, my nephew was not so smart and forced me to transform him... That was a bitch and a half to do. The articulation on Optimus seems to be much improved, and Megsy just looks freaking awesome, even with his new handycapable feature. Looks like my "I'm Only Picking Up Wheelie, Sideways, Sideswipe, and Devastator" List is now gonna be "I'm Only Picking Up Wheelie, Sideways, Sideswipe, Leader Optimus, Leader Megsy, and maybe Devvy" list.. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891027) Posted by First Gen on February 27th, 2009 @ 12:09pm CST Dammit! I had no plans to buy ROTF figures but now seeing the new Prime im gonna have to get that bad boy. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891028) Posted by jaws on February 27th, 2009 @ 12:11pm CST Prime will be bought; glad I got Leader Megatron from 1st movie--WTF is that crazy arm cannon? | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891053) Posted by GetterDragun on February 27th, 2009 @ 12:48pm CST Megatrons chest is Devestators face? | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891061) Posted by typh0id on February 27th, 2009 @ 12:59pm CST
We don't and they won't It wouldn't make any sense from their end to tell us ahead of time there is going to be a premium series...Then half their market wouldn't buy the first round... | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891064) Posted by Skowl on February 27th, 2009 @ 1:00pm CST Vehicle mode pictures are now up! Megatron's tank mode is wicked! I'm totally in love with this new design, and the toy looks brilliant! Great job on the headsculpt too, now that we can finally see it. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891071) Posted by Megatron Wolf on February 27th, 2009 @ 1:11pm CST Prime looks awesome hes a must buy for me. That truck mode is just insane. Megatron still looks like crap. Head and arm are way to small. No to mention I dont like the scrap pile look. The head is at least a better sculpt but still sucks. Ill wait till its on clearance like i did with the first one. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891100) Posted by Wheelimus Prime on February 27th, 2009 @ 2:17pm CST prime looks misstransformed---i hope. megatron looks like a deffinet buy from me but the gun hand | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891108) Posted by munkimus prime on February 27th, 2009 @ 2:31pm CST I want both. They're both great looking figures and I can't wait for the toyline to be released. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891110) Posted by rwalsh17 on February 27th, 2009 @ 2:35pm CST Could somebody please post some size comparison pics between TF Movie '07 Leader Class Prime and ROTF Leader Class Prime?!? ROTF Prime looks wicked, but I'm afraid that they scaled him down a bit, just like they did with ROTF Voyager Starscream. I'd love to see how the new Prime measures up! | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891123) Posted by Hoppercool on February 27th, 2009 @ 3:05pm CST Megatron's tank mode looks like Unicron took a shit. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891124) Posted by UltraPrimal on February 27th, 2009 @ 3:06pm CST The only thing that these pictures have made me want to buy is a belt buckle that says "Try Me". | |

| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891142) Posted by typh0id on February 27th, 2009 @ 3:59pm CST
It DOES look a lot like that and I LOVED that game I'm completely digging the new tank mode...It's about 1,000,000,000x better than that stupid boring jet mode from the last one (wasn't so bad in the movie but the toys just looked rediculous)... | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891143) Posted by Dr. Heavy B on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:00pm CST WOAH!!!!! man, megatron looks like a mis-matched hodge podge of crap hasbro couldn't sell the first time around. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891144) Posted by YRQRM0 on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:01pm CST Megatron looks awesome, I'm loving the tank mode. But did anyone notice he seems to have a slight more metallic finish to him than that other two pics we saw with the watermark on hs head? He looks great. Optimus is also a huge improvement, the only thing is that pipe kibble on his "wings". But if he combines, I'll be frced to getim anyways, if not, he might still be worth it, but I'll have to buy Megatron before him. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891145) Posted by *Soundwave* on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:07pm CST I'll try to get megatron before prime. They both look great. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891147) Posted by robotrik on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:14pm CST
If you look at the pic of Prime in his box you can clearly see that his wings are transformed differently and that the pipes kibble is not visible.. so my guess is he is mistransformed in the other pics. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891150) Posted by Ultra Magnus on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:28pm CST Wow. I knew there was a reason I waited to pick Prime up last time around... I HAVE TO HAVE ONE! Don'tcha love the way his leg kibble's broken in the box? | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891154) Posted by soundwave13c on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:37pm CST this megs is freakin sweet! i skiped over the first one becaouse it looked like crap! optimus looks cool, he looks like he is more possible with the feet. I dont like the wings, but at least he dosent look like he has as much back kibble as the first Prime. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891155) Posted by Starscream217 on February 27th, 2009 @ 4:38pm CST Awesome Figures better that i thought they would be | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891162) Posted by dillifer92 on February 27th, 2009 @ 5:13pm CST Wow. That Megatron alt mode is just disgusting. Toys with challenging transformations are the most fun, and that one looks like a FAB. Prime is nice, but I don't like the pipes sticking out above his head. And his paint isn't as accurate as the frst, but he will be on my shelf. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891189) Posted by GreenLantern of Cybertron on February 27th, 2009 @ 6:11pm CST Yup, more ugly toys I refuse to buy. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891193) Posted by Mykltron on February 27th, 2009 @ 6:16pm CST You can thank ME for that pic of Prime's back - I emailed the seller and asked for a rear view. He's got SOOOO much less kibble than the previous figure. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891266) Posted by slaggathor12 on February 27th, 2009 @ 9:42pm CST i really like the OP, but i have mixed feelings on the megatron, mostly because of that tiny little arm.. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891290) Posted by DavidT on February 27th, 2009 @ 11:00pm CST
I'm the one that asked for a pic of the back of Optimus's box before that, hoping we could see if it showed anything about combining with Jetfire. He said he would, but he did not. . | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891337) Posted by sentinal supreme on February 28th, 2009 @ 1:30am CST dont get me wrong im getting them both, but i must say op looking very top heavy skinny legs ,and megs chicken wing.... lol | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891358) Posted by Prime Riblet on February 28th, 2009 @ 4:31am CST
It is someone's face. That's for sure. | |
| Re: New Images of ROTF Leader-Class Optimus Prime & Megatron (891368) Posted by Mykltron on February 28th, 2009 @ 5:27am CST
Bearing in mind the balls up they've made with Devvo I'd say "don't get your hopes up". Besides, Jetfire would have to be four times as big as Prime to be in scale. | |
