One of the three new Transformers toy lines is Generations, and it is headlined by the figures for the War For Cybertron Video Game. Whenever we happen to get a new Transformers brand, it also means we usually get a new incarnation of the face of the franchise. War For Cybertron Deluxe Optimus Prime looks much like any of his predecessors in previous Transformers eras. He comes with a blaster, and transformers into a futuristic tank/truck, similar to War Within Optimus Prime. TFClub has acquired the figure, and has taken several pictures of the Autobot Leader. There's shots of Optimus in both robot and alternate mode, as well as comparisons to WW Optimus Prime. Since Optimus Prime also wields an Axe, there's also shots of him wielded Animated Prime's weapon. Check out the gallery below!

You can find more images over at TFClub here.

He looks pretty good. Can't wait to see a voyager version.

There are a couple design elements I'm not very happy with but I like it overall. It has personality.

Awesome as this fig is, I have no use for another Classics Prime. I'll wait to see what repaints he bears.

I'm wondering how long this line is going to be in stores...Or if any of the figures will be exclusive to certain stores..It's going to be hard to turn this line down..I'd like to expand my classics-esque line..

You bring up a great point..How many repaints did classics prime get? I count 4( not counting takara) This fig would look sexy as a nemesis prime..

Edit..One thing though..I remember watching a video with some of the games developers and they mentioned that in the game he is reffered to as simply "Optimus"..Not Optimus prime.. He's not even the leader of the autobots yet, just a high ranking officer..I forgot who they named the leader..Just thought I'd point this out

Man this thing is awesome but I don't really care for the pink bits.

The toy itself is 'Cybertronian Optimus Prime'

Zeta Prime is the current Prime in WFC. Optimus becomes Prime by the end of the video game, so that's why this is 'Optimus Prime'

he looks cool atleast you can remove the back kibble to make him look a little thinner and not as. . .obese

personally i think the red should have been darker

Posted: **Sat Apr 24, 2010 8:39 am**

Wow, okay, THIS is how you show off a new toy. First time he's looked awesome to me, and now I want him. Dang it...

Posted: **Sat Apr 24, 2010 9:19 am**

As I have said before, I can't wait for this awesome figure to add to my OP shelf (trying to get all incarnations) his look is unique compared to the rest and I am thrilled we get to see him with war within OP. That is a comparison I have been waiting for!

That's an awesome looking robot. Too bad that a) it's yet another bloody Optimus figure and b) it transforms into a lawnmower.

Posted: **Sat Apr 24, 2010 9:45 am**

Cool! Can't wait to see Megatron and Bumblebee! Hopefully, they'll make Starscream, Ironhide, Ratchet, and maybe even Trypticon or Omega Supreme!

What kind of lawnmowers to you use where you live...?

And also, I really hope we get a Starscream, but more importantly, Skywarp and Thundercracker repaints of said Starscream.

I wouldn't say a lawnmower..more like a cybertronian Zamboni

Looking a little pink, but good. This is the first gallery that makes me feel good about the shoulders.

Posted: **Sat Apr 24, 2010 12:44 pm**

Looks better everytime i c him!!!

Posted: **Sat Apr 24, 2010 1:41 pm**

Man I want a gritty repaint and a Nemesis made out of this.

Posted: **Sat Apr 24, 2010 2:17 pm**

It hasn't been said yet, so I'm just going to say it...
I am naming this mold Batman Prime.
Look at it. Think back to Tim Burton's take on the Batmobile. You can't miss it.
IT there ever is a repaint. I really hope they don't botch it with that effed up Nemisis blue paint ap.

Yeah, you got a point there. He does look like the Batmobile. Now that my love for the figure has died because of this pic, I'm gonna kill myself :BOOM:

Nah jk, now I just gotta get rid of that awful memory
