I was playing with my Voyager Movie Optimus Primes yesterday, the latest three (so DOTM, AOE and TLK). I really enjoy how they are completely different toys and all worth owning in one capacity or another. There were definite diferences and you could feel the improvement. Dollar to value ratio is tough to compare since the new voyagers cost an arm and a leg now in my country, so I will only look at the toys.

DOTM is shorter and skinnier than I remember. I still love his leg transformation (very unique amongst Optimus toys) but the arms are clunky). When all three are side by side (pics coming later, maybe), the newest one is the beefiest, most imposing and more sparkly. But holding them all, the AOE voyager is easily the better toy for me. He feels so good as a poseable toy and as a transformer. He has less kibble than either and feels far more solid. Nothing unpegs, which is kind of amazing when you realize that his torso is just made up of free floating bits of the truck. Its really miraculous how you get such a solid connection. Him not being a shellformer in any way really makes him stand out and the elbows arent as bad as I remembered. plus the paint on the evolution one I have is plentiful.

I think I like him best followed by the new TLk voyager with DOTM taking a back seat 9but I did still like him back when I got him).

I've got all 3 of those guys. Never really liked DOTM Prime. TLK Prime is pretty great, but Evasion Prime blows him out of the water.

Anyone else get the Tiny Turbo Changers? $3 and a helpful code is hard to resist. I got Soundwave and Lockdown, who turned out to be fun little surprises though they needed a bit of paint:




Plus they scale rather nicely with the Cyberverse toys:

(obviously this pic was taken before I painted the little guys, heh)

[D-Maximal_Primal]

I have 7 of those little dudes, and they are loads of fun!

Also, these 3 looks pretty good together:

Those animated posters really are cool. If only actual posters for my wall could be animated... Have they still not developed such things yet?

Do you own the INCREDIBLE HFTD Battle Blades voyager Optimus? It's like a mini ROTF leader with a similar transformation. It even have a hidden Matrix that is removable.

I have it TWICE if you wanna trade something.


HFTD and TLK look pretty boss together.

I keep getting outbid on that HFTD on eBay. Definitely a great Voyager figure of movie Prime's original robot and truck modes.

I was tempted by getting a black TTC Grimlock, but without anything to complement that purchase, well...

[DedicatedGhostArt]

Could the new trailer give us a clue as to why some of the TLK toys have parts-forming? Maybe Bumblebee has the same un-assembling gimmick in his later toy as in the trailer?



If it's the case, that is an awesomely clever way to cheap out on designs!

So, i am browsing on facebook this morning, and came across this

is this means we will be getting MPM barricade soon?

EDIT: never mind, didn't saw the news at the front page before, my bad

TFW2005 member AutobotMirage has found the second wave of Transformers The Last Knight One Step Changers at a Target in East Amherst, New York. This set contains Grimlock, Megatron, and Berserker. If you'd like a better look at the Megatron or Berserker One Step Changer this article features a video review of both.

If he has ball joints then he should go to pieces pretty easily.

Can anyone tell me who's the bot beside Barricade??

Where, what picture are you looking at?


Here?



That's Megatron, and Decepticon Berserker.

[Stuartmaximus]

See i was right, i knew i wasn't imagining it, that there is a TTC packet going about with the letter S on it, mind you i still dunno who the hell it is

[ScottyP]

I'd heard some rumors about a deluxe Bumblebee variant, so I took a look for myself and yep, there is one. Behold - launch day purchase on the left, today's purchase on the right:



You can see the black paint not only gets onto the roof, but portions of the rear of the vehicle as well.

In robot mode there's no difference that's really noticeable. The shades of yellow are my lighting setup being crappy/me being not great at pictures. Trust me on this, the yellows are the same despite what it might look like here!

However, when it's in the package, the roof pieces are left flat on the back. I've posed these oddly to show you how you can identify the variant in the store. The easiest way is to look at the rear piece, as the black "leaks through" a bit even when viewed from the front. The roof panel itself can be helpful in this but it isn't as reliable.

Given that the assortment codes are the same, I don't know of any other way to identify them while in the store, outside of being a total prick and opening the package in the aisle (do not do this.)

Not in that pic but in the video ending where Optimus' toy joins the other toys standing.

The animated poster?

The toys standing at the end are (in order) Barricade, Slash, Prime, Bumblebee, Grimlock, Berserker. All wave 1 figures. And two of which are in the photo just above too. They're angled in a V sorta shape so the ones on the sides Barry and Berserk, again same as the photo above oddly enough but reversed positions) look much smaller than they are.

Fellow Seibertronian bacem has pointed us towards a new image of in-package Voyager Scorn from the Transformers: The Last Knight Premier Edition toy line - courtesy of the usual Weibo account - and we've mirrored it below for your viewing! Check it out, and let us know what you think of this upscaled dinobot so far!

[-Kanrabat-]

Just pointing out that Scorn is a DELUXE.

...
Unless they made an upscaled version just for TLK?
Naaaaah...

that pic is taken at toyfair. As you can see, he is bigger than deluxe steelbane on the right.

And yes, this is a new mold for TLK

Oh?
OOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..................

Well well well, a (somewhat) NEW dinobot!
Deluxe Scorn is a great mold. So I expect the new voyager to be amazing. Nevertheless, it's an unexpected want!
