The leader class is bigger, more detailed, and has more play value. The voyager has a vehicle attack mode, and is more like older optimises (sp?). I like the leader one more.

Surprisingly enough, the Voyager and Leader class OP have different transformations and look slightly different standing next to each other. Personally I think the Leader class looks more like the movie version than the voyager class.

They both have their pros and cons.

If you have the cash, go with the Leader Prime figure. He is bigger, and has a more fun to play with Transformation.
The Voyager figure has a very simple Transformation for a Voyager class figure, but still has a very good looking robot and alt mode.

Actually VOyager Prime looks slightly closer to the movie Prime if you ask me. I only have Leader Prime but he is awesome. He looks better overall.

I'll have to agree with Raymond101 on this one. Voyager Prime is more movie accurate. His legs are leaner and his build is much more athletic, like in the movie. Leader prime is very bulky.

Don't get me wrong, leader prime is overall the better toy ... but voyager prime is definitely more accurate to the movie character.

Um, no, I don't think the Leader Prime looks exactly like the one in the movie. Leader Prime looks way more armoured, has different leg colour placement (flames) and has a jetpack (I like to call it a jetpack). Furthermore, he's just tankier overall. I actually prefer it this way, and my customization makes him look a bit more metallic and shiny, although I'm not sure if I could do the same with Voyager Prime.

definitely leader prime. He is one of the few movie action figures that I personally feel needs little if any help from a customizer.

He looks great as is and I like to keep him displayed in his truck form just because I think it's the best truck form he's ever had IMO.

I have both, but I would recommend the Voyager class over the leader class. The voyager bot mod is way closer to the movie prime then the leader prime is. The Leader prime is more like blocky old skool primes. I can get voyager prime to make some really cool poses, but leader class is someone limited. The voyager class as cooler guns too 8)
