I saw a prototype last Saturday, the piece was very nice, and the final version should be even better.

That is AWESOME, but please tell me they'vee given some consideration to where Prime can stick his Axe...

er, in vehicle mode. Otherwise, I'm not fond of random loose prop.

I'm not entirely certain yet that I want to invest a lot of extra capital into the WFC subline of figures.

Yes it looks awesome, but there's only 5 figures coming out that we know of and I'm not sure that's enough for me to keep that line.

We shall see thoguh.

It is a nice axe.

You must have HATED G1 then.

Did everyone use a Ziploc bag for all your TF weapons in the old days? I think we needed two of the gallon ones...(sigh)...

...damn I'm getting old.

Oh, back on topic...WOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO! THAT IS SICK!

It's very nice item but it's not worth the $345621345 it'll cost.

meh. Nice axe, but it's elaborate details don't go too well with a plainly painted figure.

Sweet jesus That is gorgeous!!!!

Sure it's nice, but what I can't understand is why they didn't release the axe to go along with this figure in the first place?

Honestly, it might be because they couldn't get a good mold of it with that plastic that they have had to use with Bludgeon's and Drift's sword, so they just left it out. That's the only reason I can think of once agian because of those wonderful child safety laws.

I think I just wet myself as soon as I saw the Axe, it's so badass-looking and scary.... :lol:

thank God for third party makers.

Venksta final product looks awesome, can't wait to own it!!!

by **WolfDawg** » Tue Sep 14, 2010 6:31 am

Looks awesome, and considering the fact that WFC Megatron holds MP Megatron's Mace so well, it works out perfectly.

I don't think it looks that good really.

I hope that's not the final version.

Badass Battle Axe is Badass.

No, honestly, i think it is a tad oversized, but i know that`s the supposing. But how much will it appromaxtly cost?

axe looks big concern does it go anwhere in truck mode, it does look bit oversized for him will this company do the same with other figures in the same toyline soundwave & megatron dont have weapons

you want to talk about child saftely laws gijoe, starwas, powerrangers, many more weapons are more dangerous than making prime figure with short smokestacks those weapons for those figure are made of plastic not soft rubber as drift sword & gijoe comes with many weapons babys could swallow them & choke, gijoe weapons on there vehicals they could shoot there eye out with spring loaded missles or sharp pointy guns & swords of theres that come with figures or there tanks & role playing weapons are far more dangerous than little plastic axe to the eye such as this here.

this would be great if WFC optimus's perportions werent WAY off, he's on par with energon optimus prime IMHO #-o

VERY nice axe! I like it a lot.

by **r3devi7** » Tue Sep 14, 2010 9:41 am

I like the idea, but I would like a weapons add on set. Fusion cannon, null ray, rocket launcher...

by **Joker'sRequiem** » Tue Sep 14, 2010 9:41 am

The axe looks good, but it just makes me wish I had a larger WFC Prime to get it for. The Deluxe is a great figure, but is VERY undersized when Bumblebee is almost his height. But depending on the price, I might consider getting it anyways, because with WFC it might make a pretty good display piece.
