The most epic Prime

The Prime with the biggest play value, best transformation, the fanciest gimmicks, the most comprehensive all round toy.

I argued Cybertron Prime but my friend reckons RiD Prime.

I also think movie Prime has one of the best built-in gimmicks (Automorph).

Cybertron Prime w/ wingsaber would get my vote if Prime had ball jointed ankles. Of course then it wouldn't be cartoon accurate if that was the case.

He probably wouldn't stand up too well either in sonic wing mode, even with wingsabers blasters attached to his feet.

MP prime is cool, but I really have issues with the alt mode.

I'm gonna go with Movie Leader Prime w/ a custom metallic paint job.

That's quite epic IMHO. Maybe one day Hasbro will get around to doing this one, they're repainting everything else ...

Have to go with MP01, you just arent going to beat the hype that still surrounds him.

The best and truest version of G1 Prime on a huge scale.
Voted best toy of ALL TIME by toyfare.
If that isnt epic than what is?

Considerable mentions for RID and Cybertron Prime. Gorgeous molds, beautiful transformations as well.

Seconded! MP Prime gave me the TF "itch". The guy is sturdy. Super posable. Has an innovative transformation. And has the best (or at least least annoying) gimmicks. And the price is decent too. To me, he's all around the best prime.

I also tend to like Powermaster Prime. I have to admit, my collection has fewer Primes than most.

MP Prime is good but this is my best of list:

5. G2 battle Prime
4. Classics Voyager
3.Powermaster Prime
2. MP Prime
1. THS G1 Prime

He is the best, brilliant articulation, cool botmode, lots of weopns, best Prime trailer ever, lots of detail.
he has Badass written all around him!

G1 Prime...seriously

He has decent articulation, a simple yet effective transformation, andsis pretty well constructed.

His trailer has tons of play value. Roller, launcher, firing missiles, repair bay, room to store other autobot cars...

No other Prime is as friendly to all ages, has such comprehensive play value, and is as iconic as G1 Prime.

Well sure, but since I don't use baseball bats to transform my toys; I'm sure that would never happen.

I vote for R.I.D. Prime. come on he has tones of play value cool gimmicks. sounds and phrases. has an armored super mode that's actually cool, and combines with Ultra Magnus to form Omega Prime. whats more epic than a big robot screaming "OMEGA FIRE!!!!!!"

I love the crapload of detail and tiny bits of truck kibble scattered over Movie Leader Prime. To me, he's the most regal and heroic looking OP out there.

My vote goes to the Primes that come with "the Autobot matrix". Gotta have the matrix baby!

Movie Prime by far. He has a slick look and has been updated with the times. Flat-nose trucks for the loss.
