Now Iv'e Mastered, the Bieber Bowel!
Sheesh...
And at the end, dontcha love how they show footage of Jetwing Prime? I mean, In the movie, his Trailer never technically turns into the jetpack, He says he needed to get to the flight pack, not the trailer WAS his flight pack. This trailer's just a mock up of what we could have. Granted, BB Prime can somewhat fit into it, making it kinda fun....

HA Leadfoot is amazing! Granted i watched a couple of youtubes on him cuz i was struggling with the doors in robot mode. I forget who it was that posted one where he is slightly mistranformed to get the doors up higher which i also did to display him and i must admit looks very very awesome!

i am very please with Leadfoot.

Why is Justin Bieber presenting this? lmao

by **TheTigerKing84** » Mon Sep 12, 2011 7:08 pm

Why do they always show him With The "x wings"? He looks way better with the top wings one click up from the horizontal position and the midwings one click down from the horizontal positions.Gives it less of a butterfly look. I hope they come up with an upgrade kit like the FWI-1. In Robot mode, where did big gun clicks,a twin rocket and two handguns. In vehicle mode, take the trailer remove mechtech gun and fold the read wheels in.Where the gun clips,attach bigger trailer wheels to match ROTF Optimus Prime and a trailer hitch to match.

i agree.. it's incredibly annoying that they have video from the movie showing prime with his jet pack.. that looks exactly nothing like what the figure does.

and prime does refer to his trailer as his "flight tech".. "they've got my trailer, i need that flight tech"

anyways.. his trailer does two things in the movie, he's got his flight pack, and his weapons bay.. and we get neither of them. we get some ridiculous looking/wildly inaccurate flight suit with a terrible base figure. if they're going to charge between $65 and $80 for this.. it should at least be accurate.. and at least have a leader sized prime.

hasbro truly dropped the ball on this one. they could've raked in the money if they had either given us an accurate version.. or at least the jetwing takara version.

Whats with all the hate?

He is fine toy,and many have said to like him.

by **Gorechyld** » Tue Sep 13, 2011 1:16 am

There's so much hate because people are anal retentive whiners. Just because YOU don't like it, doesn't mean its garbage, and if you want what YOU want. Go back to school, get some sorta degree in toy design and get a job with Hasbro and make what YOU want.

And if you're not gonna do the ladder, then just don't drop the 80 bucks on him. Or buy him, and enjoy the fact that we get a movie Prime with a trailer that does SOMETHING. Instead of being just a empty hunk of plastic like the voyager scale that was released earlier.

wait... isnt this being a bit of a hypocrit?

No offense but everyone has the right to complain if they dont like someething.. the thought process is simple... voice your opinion in the hopes that Hasbro will do something about it. This Optimus Prime is not good especially when compared to ROTF Leader Prime. Granted I want a Prime with a trailer... but this one is an easy pass.

Random question: why is cyberverse Blackout more screen accurate than voyager blackout? how is that even possible?

I don't care if it's not movie accurate, I love this toy. Best use of an Optimus trailer ever.

I already have Leader Class Prime so I didn't really need another one

by **Un_Chakal** » Tue Sep 13, 2011 10:19 am

I do not care much for Butterfly Prime.

I thought he said "Flight Deck", meaning the trailer contains it, but is not "It".

Yeah, it is.
first off, working with hasbro DOES NOT mean you get to sit around and make whatever the hell kinda toy you feel like, you need to follow plans, instructions, and very strict guidlines!
Secondly, and I humourously Quote:

Seriously? Did you seriously get on EVERYONE'S ass about complaining, then end your comment....with a complaint? so...rundown:
your complaining, about our complaining, while complaining? well, that's got more holes in it than ROTF!
