I dont want this lengthy post to go to waste. So, posting what I think of all the DotM toys I have so far:Why not say what are
THE BEST of Dotm?
The ones I like the most are:
Leader Sentinel PrimeHe's one of the best TF ever. He's fun to transform, the vehicle mode is awesome, and the robot mode just plain KICK-ASS!
Ultimate Optimus PrimeThis one cost a lot. But even with his flaw, he's suprisingly fun and easy to transform. He look great in every modes. He's displayed in ultimate mode with his cannon up and I added some more mechtech in his hands. Totally worth it!
Voyager SkyhammerThe robot is very nice, the helicopter is so great, and he transform like a charm. Get him.
Deluxe TopspinHe look great in both mode, transform easy, and he come with a shitload of weapons!
Deluxe StarscreamI love Starscream. Both movie and classic incarnations and everything in between. The Voyager RotF repaint is ****, but the deluxe DotM... man, the thing is so perfect, I bought him TWICE to display him in robot and jet at the same time.
Voyager MegatronYes, he's a tiny,
tiny voyager. But his overall design is so perfect. Both modes are totally bad-ass looking and he transform like a charm.
Deluxe Optimus Prime (Wallmart Exclusive)At first, I was sceptical about this guy and his huge backpack. But once you start to play with him, you notice how much this guy is great. His transformation scheme is very clever. The truck mode look perfect. And the robot mode is not too bad looking. He's quite a nice surprise!
Fun fact: Deluxe DotM Optimus Prime and Voyager DotM Megatron are perfectly in scale with each others:
These ones, I feel neutral about. They're fine, but they are not ground-breacking. I could still recommend them, but they all have some flaws that keep them for acheiving greatness:
Voyager SoundwaveHis tank mode is a big pile of nothing and we cannot put his cannon on his left arm. But the robot mode is very cool.
Deluxe RoadbusterHe's just average.
Voyager IronhideRobot is great, but the thing I don't like is the big mess that is the inside of the truck's trunk.
Cyberverse Optimus PrimeI have both versions. The one with the jetpack, and the one with the trailer. The trailer is not worth transforming into that pile of scrap. The figures themselves are fine enough. They are kinda essensial for my Optimus Prime Collection. I swapped the Optimuses. Meaning Jetwing have the trailer in truck mode and the one who came with the trailer with the more plain paintjob is in robot mode with the wings. They display fine, but they are kinda just for the Optimus Prime enthousiast.
Last two are the one I like the less. You can call them "worst", but they are not bad toys... well, except for the damn RotF Starscream repaint. But that one don't really count.
Deluxe SideswipeThe vehicle mode is awesome. But the robot is ugly as hell and this TF have the lamest paint job for any TF ever.
Voyager Optimus PrimeThe robot have weird proportions. The truck mode have a gaping hole on the back. I was very disapointed. This thing don't hold a candle to HftD voyager Battleblade Optimus Prime.
Any other missing DotM figure from these lists, I just don't have them. So I have no right to say anything. To end this post in a bang, have a picture of my DotM Optimus Primes!
