Teen titans new toys you said?... hey c'mon, they are the ugliest TF's line ever... any way the right of opinion

JDD01 wrote:Hey I found out about it before you guys did

Yeah, yeah, you did, but you didn’t title your thread Auction for TFA voyager Prime, you titled it “Check this auction I found”, someone wouldn’t know if that’s a funny KO or voyager prime unless they take time to actually look at every thread they haven’t already read, which would be a pain.

Next time you find something you should PM a news mod or use the submit news function.

Couldn't have put it better (or more politely) myself.

JDD01, I merged yours with the news story. Sorry I missed it, but I added you to the credit. Just e-mail, or PM one of us next time okay?

Okay people, here is just a recap for all of you seibertronians that might have your facts wrong.

From this, we learn that there will be THREE Optimus Prime toys and THREE Megatron toys.

Optimus Prime will consist of: A DELUXE Cybertron mode, a DELUXE Earth mode, and finally, a VOYAGER Earth mode with a small trailer. He is small in size, as was Classics Prime, but may be tall in robot mode.

Megatron will consist of: A DELUXE, gray, Cybertronian mode, a VOYAGER, pearl white, Cybertronian mode, and a, most likely Voyager, Earth mode, which should be an Osprey I believe.

Thus, the previous news of the Voyger Prime was indeed the scaled down Deluxe version with no trailer.

as of yet there is NO evidence whatsoever of a leader class prime circulating the public domain. the cnn report visuals made it very difficult to determine relative sizes of the toys, the earth megs looks small but when the reporter puts his hand down towards it the size distortions become apparent. evidence suggests the 3 leader figures are earth megs, bulkhead (and headmaster??) and ultra magnus.

because somebody at hasbro decided that would be the way he was to be packed

Why is he facing that way?
I wish they gave him light blue and red lights.
And blacker windows.
hasbro used so much plastic for Prowl, but they use so little for Prime?
but he's not my favorite character in the show, so I'm okay.

are you saying that prowl has more plastic than voyager prime? i can guarantee that is NOT true.

Mr.Bond007 wrote:Rather small, there's an awful lot of empty box in there

theres probably a reason for that. Habsbro is using a standard size voyager box that can accommodate the largest voyager toy in alt mode which is so far probably starscream (he may have the longest single dimension) prime in his alt mode is quite compact, i'll be suprised if the robot mode isnt around 7.5-8.5 iches tall.

Liege Evilmus wrote:They couldn't have found a bigger box huh?

You know on this show outside of the first episode he's just been a cab. He's blocked up so I can't tell if he comes with any type of atachments, but they realy should give him some.

It's not like there's no room to fit more stuff in there!?!

Oh, and for the $20 price mark on what looks to be a $10 sized figure, PASS on pricipal alone!

you are most certainly talking nonsense, when voyager prime is released compare his size to that of the $10 toys and you can bet he is as proportionately massive as any $20 is to any $10 that weve seen since BW>cybertron/movie.

$122 for a figure that will be released in a short time anyway?

Optimus Primes with Fry Cook spatula action!

A little faction symbol like the 3 inch titanium guys have, something like that would make nice filler, and you know they have tons of them boxed up somewhere.

Or a weapon. I don't know, I'm just saying. It'd be much more useful than a crappy faction symbol.

They could just put the axe in its open position in the box. I'm sure that would look cool.

I couldn't agree more, weapons are always fun and the more the merrier!

I was just saying for the sake of argument though in the case of say Classics Prime, I understand they want to keep the figure with weapons self contained, so I mention random filler.

Still, load these guys up with gear, I can't see to many complaining about that!

wheres the rest of him. in the cartoon he had a trailer

and it seems the axe is shaped diffrent....

Sorry if I came off sounding like a jerk, mate. That's not what I intended to do!

I'm not really sure what you're saying about Classics Prime, seeing as how his shotgun was seperate from the cab to fill space.

Just being a smartass! I understand what you mean.

Looks nice, but I'll wait until it's on shelves, just wish that the axe was more show accurate.

I meant plastic types.
sorry I didn't make that clear.
Prowl has got black, grey, clear, clear red, clear blue, clear yellow, clear green, and kinda tan color.
While this Prime seems to consist of:
red, black, blue, grey, clear blue.
lazyass hasbro.

I know what you mean. Hasbro looks like they were kinda lazy on this figure.
No big firetruck mode.
His alt mode looks just a little bigger than Bumblebee.
Weirdass axe weapon when the deluxe version's was pretty cool.
Theres also a gun but Prowl is a deluxe and he has ninja stars that go into his wheels AND a traffic light nunchuk that has 4 plastic types and string. All that engineering used in a deluxe's weapons while Prime has... a fugly axe and a little cannon.
DX
good thing he's not my favorite character.
P.S. Nice new sig. Liege!

ah, ok. im not sure i understand your point though. The number of colours on a toy has nothing to do with its size class, it depends upon the individual design specification, more is not necessarily better.

No, aparently not.
