There are 184 new images of this fantastic figure for you to enjoy. Click on any picture to get started.

Great gallery. Sentinel is looking like a really cool figure.

Nice looking gallery Ryan. Still on the top of my DOTM want list.

I cant wait until the figures,game,and most importantly the movie he looks very great figure to have.

Interesting... looks to be in scale (based on crew compartment size) with Voyager Inferno. And he's more "Gundam" style than Movie, so he could POSSIBLY slip into the Classics shelf...

Great gallery. It's warmed me up to the idea of maybe buying Sentinel. What this gallery did for this figure that sold me on him was showing off how posable he is and his size. Rid Prime is a pretty sizable figure and SP is equal in scale.

Might just have to pick him up now.

From the very first time I saw him on a video review up until now he is my number 1 MUST have TF from DOTM. I absolutely LOVE that Leader Sentinal Prime. Is anyone taking preorders for him yet? I didn't see it on HTS or BBTS.

So far I will be getting 2 figures from the movie for sure, Sentinel Prime and Shockwave, still not convinced by the others yet.

We'll probably see a kitbash into Alpha Trion by someone

I'd already made up my mind to buy this guy, but this gallery just cements my opionion that this is one spectacular figure. Great job on the pics!

I love that RID Super Prime and Univ Inferno are more or less in scale.

The Sentinel Prime toy, in my opinino, is an incredible design achievement. It is amazing how this toy folds up into itself to transform from a fairly boxy firetruck into a rather dynamic looking robot mode that has very little noticeable firetruck parts from his front view. The remaining few panels are even arranged so that they resemble a "cape" of sorts. It is amazing how far Transformers toys have come over the past 27 years.



Sentinel Prime's entire design from the "cape", shoulder panels, and facial design are all very reminiscent of Alpha Trion to me.

Just wish he had a ball joint for the neck.

Way to go Big Boss, nice pictures.

So he IS shorter than ROTF leader Prime. I thought he was taller.

He's just a little bit shorter. Not sure which way is more accurate but they look great side-by-side.

I NEED IT NAO!!!

I don't think it tops ROTF Leader Class Optimus Prime, but it is a marvel in its own right. When you transform it for the first time and see the engineering first hand for yourself with how the figure folds up into itself, you'll be very impressed. But it has enough annoyances that you'll still keep ROTF Prime in his proper place on the scale of grandness.

DOTM Voyager Prime is a step backwards. One step forward with Sentinel Prime, two steps backward with Voyager Prime.

Just pure epic. I'm getting this guy on the first day these are out (that is, if there are any left).

And I swear our site owner is the luckiest Transfan in the world with all this stuff he gets.

Yes, he does look awesome, although, one thing bugs me. The fact that you can see his head through the front windscreen spoils the illusion of him being a vehicle. I would guess alot of previewers would make this comment as well.

But all in all, still a damn good toy/figure.

That's probably the biggest thing that I don't like about this figure. They could have tinted the windows to help out with the illusion but for some reason they didn't. Here's hoping for a running change with this at some point.

Dude, don't bother ordering this fig. It'll be everywhere in about another week.

As for the fig itself, I admit it's impressive how they hide the truck kibble, but this ain't even close to being the second coming of ROTF Prime. The panels are very frustrating to get all in place. I love complex transforms, but this is much more pain in the ass than complex. It's like Death Star Vader lining up all the panels just right. So I find Sentinel Pink to be only a decent fig. Probably will be one of the best DOTM figs, but that's not saying much.

cant wait to get this guy........when I get my bonus and go TF/cap america shopping in late May this lad is the first one in the trolley!!!

Agreed. I really hated lining the panels up, was really frustrating for me the first time.

I got him and it's a mixed bag of good and bad in my opinion.

On the positive side, his alt mode is pretty rockin'. It's tight, has interesting transformation aspects, and seems to keep its own scale. The thing feels solid, when and if you lock it all down.

Little things like this annoy the hell out of me:


See that part hanging down from the bumper? That's his foot...it's just crammed back there.

Another thing I have issue with is the color of the red plastic. This seems to be a Hasbro thing, but what the hell? Is fire engine red copyrighted or unavailable for appearances on fire trucks?


His robot mode is good, if not a little spindly. It has good presence with the cape and the stylized legs. With little effort you can get some interesting poses and the mechtech shield is A-ok.

But see this shoulder joint?


better hope you get a good one because a lot of that articulation rests on a little black clip holding firm.

Last little thing, you see in this pic how high Sentinel's torso sits compared to Prime's? That's not the toy's fault but it might be one of the things that makes me a little harsh on the design of the character:


Overall, this is one of the top three movie leader figures. Optimus Prime and Starscream tie for spot number one and Sentinel is an easy third. He's like a cross between leader Optimus and Megatron, or if you get hung up on getting the arms in vehicle mode, a cross between Optimus and Brawl.

is that ROTF prime pictured there man?
