Video Review - Transformers: Age of Extinction Leader Class Optimus Prime

WooHoo...Sooo glad I put the kabash on my Amazon preorder! This is a complete piece of crap...actually liked the first edition AOE Prime better and I returned that one to Hasbro because of chrome issues for refund. I know I won't have any trouble scoring an Evasion Mode Optimus on launch day, but have to wonder how everyone else will make out when it is the ONLY worthy Prime in the line thus far. Just my humble opinion of course...thanks for another great review.

Hasbro confirmed they'd be transforming. Maybe its suppose to be a "surpise"

Oh hell yes! That head launching gimmick is sweet. Lol. Glad i preordered these two on amazon

I spotted Voyagers Optimus and Grimlock at WalMart today. I picked up Optimus only, (because I think Grimlock is hideous) and I wasn't disappointed. It's a very good figure. Dare I say better than the Leader. From previous photos and reviews I didn't think I would, but once I had it in hand at the store, it was a must-get.

I went to give his shotgun to DoTM Voyager Megatron, just to see if it would fit, and it does. Also, I noticed that Evasion Optimus scales very well with DoTM Megatron in both modes. In both modes he's juuuuust a bit bigger, but it's much closer than DoTM Voyager Optimus was.

"Just when you think transformers can't imprss you any more...", man that toy designer must have set himself some pretty low expectations for the films to keep impressing him.

Though I will say that Optimus on a robot Dinosaur is pretty cool.

i love behind the scenes stuff.. takes away a bit of the "magic" but it's always interesting. Wish hasbro would do a documentary about the process and how it changed from back in the 70s and 80s to now with technological advances and also certain considerations such as health and safety etc

even when monday hits im sure there still wont be any transformers on the shelves around here, and hasbro hyping up the toyline this much has me worried.

I'm still waiting on stores. Seems dumb, I agree, but there's something fun about getting stuff at brick and mortar, plus the opportunity for that doesn't come around much anymore.

Looks like they acidentally painted the eyes and the on Titan OP
