Is he really worth getting?

I have him and he is a very cool figure. His blue paint job is brighter than the blue on the regular Voyager Prime that will be released later. He has additional flames that will not be present on the later Voyager release as well. And right now Target has him on sale for the price he should be in the first place.

He is a great figire and I would definetly say he is worth getting. He is my favorite from the movie line. He is just so poseable and comes with the 2 big guns. Not to mention the nice Peter Cullen homage in the drivers seat. Just cool all around.

Check on the endcaps of the action figures and hot wheels aisles. I walked past Robovision Prime like 3 times before I noticed him sitting there. He's smaller than you expect him to be, so keep an eye peeled.

It's you. I see 'em all the time. I say get him. But between him & Leader Class Prime, the latter of the two wins. Robovision Prime is nice, but his transformation gave m more trouble than Leader Prime did. Althoguh I do like that he has two missile launchers instead of one....... :-? get 'em both!!

They had like 30 of them at Target in Joplin, MO. I got one, I like it. I also got a Bumblebee there with the correct tabs.

I just got mine but im having problems with it.
*Circled in red* Is this part suppose to click down in place? because i cant that part to stay far down like its shown in the picture
*circled in green* Theres a somewhat big gap between the two sections. it doesnt really blend in nicely. this is probably due to the problems im having with the top part not going down all the way.

:BOT: My Target restocked and they had a gaggle of Primes. Huzzah!

I haven't taken it out of the box yet, but damn does it look sweet.

And Target had a sale on it for $19.99.

On top of that, I bought another toy: a Canon SD1000. Can't wait to test out the new camera.

New figure... new camera... I could use both at the same time. :CON:

He's simply put.... a badass!!! I love him, his color scheme makes him look more like the video game version not to mention his more skinnier and accurate body structure.. A definite buy!!!

I'm hoping for a target exclusive Leader class Robovision repaint and a Megatron movie accurate repaint under the robovision logo.. :PRAY:

The targets here in Jersey have hundreds of this guy... 19.99

i picked one up over the movie prime i had the chance to mess around with both and this one just does it for me.

i didnt like the missing paint apps but some paint and a little while later hes identical to the movie model (at least as close as can be) i reccomend him over the leader class anyday

:BOT: Is there any other use for the robo-vision decoder? It'd be pretty lame if I could only use it for the one image on the box. And it also seems kinda pointless considering the Target website has an online version.

Though I could use it for old school tech specs... :CON:

That part you got circled in RED. Taht is the part that i had problems with for hours. I thought it was a problem snapping it together around the part where you circled it green. Hold the bottom of the truck with your thumb, and then snap that part you showed in the red circle. That part there on the edge of the roof has a slot (between the roof and the bottom chest piece of Prime). Just hold the truck with your left hand and put your thumb on the bottom and use your left hand index finger to push the legs( the legs should be snapped together to themselves) towards the driver of the truck diagonally. If you look at the inside behind the roofing, you'll see Prime's chest. it's red with two screws. You'll see the slot for the legs between these red parts and it is aligned with the exhaust pipes sticking on the side of the roof.

Red circle part goes into Blue circle part. Just make sure you take the legs (blue circle part) as close and touching the rooftop as possible before snapping it downward.
