aintitcool.com has got first hand toy images of upcoming Transformers: Prime - Optimus Prime & Megatron figures. The images also showed the robot mode & alternate mode of the famous leaders.

Other than that, figures of the Autobots' human friends - Jackson, Miko and Raf are also featured. However, it seems like the human figures have no articulations.

Prime lookws like a power bot..Megs however looks amazing..totally screen accurate..the little human figures though, I'll let my dog chew on them

Out of all of them, BB, Arcee, Screamer, the humans and Megs all look awesome. Prime looks terrible. Hopefully he is wildly mis-transformed.

While I won't get them for myself, it looks like the TF dad in me is picking up one of each for the boys.

The one TF: Prime figure I was excited for the most is the worst looking. Prime just looks bad, hopefully mistransformed a little. He looks like a scout class figure rather than a deluxe and the rest of the figures.

Megatron on the other hand, another mold full of win.

So does this grouping imply that the kid figs will come in an Op/Megs vs. pack?

If they are deluxes, then hopefully that Megatron mold will also be sold individually, since the amateur kitbasher in me wants to take a crack at 2 or 3 of them.

Prime looks a bit plain, but otherwise I'm pleased. Starscream still looks the best of all the TFP toys so far to me. And we're getting toys of the humans?! That's unusual for TFs, but I kinda dig it. Besides, Miko's hot.

After seeing that kickass Bumblebee figure, seeing Prime is a total let down. He looks awful! The worst part is his fake windshield chest. Ever since Movie 1 leader Prime, I never want to see another fake windshield chest. Those human figures... are stupid. I hate how every TF series has to have obnoxious children that hog up the screen time when all I want to see are the bots. Of course, they are made even more obnoxious due to the ridiculous anime hair

Megs looks great. Too bad by the time he hits shelves he'll most likely have lost all that nice finish and just be gray plastic.

Prime looks very bleh. I was worried how his CGI aesthetics would translate to plastic. Turns out not very well, at least for this size class. And he looks like he has the least amount of paint apps of the entire line so far.

Prime's alt mode looks really good, too bad they had to sacrifice his robot mode for it.

Prime looks like crap, the rest are good.

Oooooo, I get the annoying kids to melt down in a frying pan!

by **Pr1meSuspect** » Mon Feb 07, 2011 8:35 pm

Prime looks allright, some better pictures could really do him some justice though. Megatron looks great except for his head sticking out of the top of vehicle mode. Man, with the new Generations, RtS, DOTM and now Prime figures I'm gonna be broke :sad:

I have a very strong feeling that you're right. The figures both look simplistic and deluxe-sized. Given the accuracy and quality of the other figures we've seen so far, these figures aren't at all what I'd expect. I wouldn't be at all surprised if we'll get Voyager or larger figures of Prime and Megs. Hopefully we will, because I was hoping for a larger Megatron figure.

So the human figures are like Kevin Smith's InAction Figures.

Great, now I have to get a third shift job at Walmart whiling working my other 2 jobs in between selling drugs and panhandling in order to afford the stuff that is coming out this year!!! I want these.

i love them! i wouldnt mind if they were deluxe, but it would be sweet if megsy and bulky were at least voyagers :PRAY:

Zero posability, zero points of articulation, and zero action for the movie that had zero box office!

Yeah, I got a couple of those guys. I have Dante and Randal in my collection room, having a conversation with E.T.

I do think Prime is a little bland. I do like Starscream and Megs. I'm sure a few of these guys will end up in my collection.....

prime doesnt look bad but hes not awesome either and megatron looks like gigantor and why are there human figures no one is going to want them, still not feeling this toyline.

I'm in agreement with most here. Megatron looks great, while Prime is a little simplistic. The kids, I don't case about one way or the other, they'll just go in the box with the rest of the unused accessories.

I wonder, maybe these are just small intro combo pack versions of Prime and Megs, like the Battle Begins pack in Animated?

Great looking figures. I cannot wait for the TF Prime line.

News Credits: 2 · by **ubertenorman** » Mon Feb 07, 2011 10:23 pm

I love that Megatron. Easily my favorite of the TFP figures. However, I really hope there's going to be another Optimus. Parts of this one look great-then I see the chest, the feet, the backpack...

These look fantastic.

It's a cryin' shame that these look better than anything the DOTM line has to offer. (Aside from Ironhide. He won me over.)

I can't wait for these guys.
