See the images of the toy by clicking here.

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay....

[FellintoOblivion]

I hope his axes is able to be hidden in his vehicle mode.

[i_amtrunks]

Paint quality is closer to Cybertron levels than Movie Toys, so that is a relief.

Hope the Head sculpt looks that good in person. (and by good I also mean show accurate)

[Sideshow Sideswipe]

I sleep all night and I work all day...

[JazZeke]

Uggghhhh...

That is the one thing I love about this line: all the figures are totally show accurate. Looking back, it took 20 years to get a cartoon-accurate Prime. These are virtaully identical...and to be honest, I really like it.

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch, I go to the lavatory...

[Megatron Wolf]

Ill be using him as Orion Pax Jr. the son of Optimus Prime.

[PrimulArchangel]

Feel sorry for the guy paying all that money for a 10$ toy LOL .. I never understood the guy that got to be first in owning something lol. Some people have no patience what so ever llol.

I agree about them being show accurate though, this will be one toy line that i will be collecting. As goofy and some look, they are a pretty cool line of toys.

I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow'rs
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars!

Looks like a wonderful figure, I can't wait for the upcoming series & toys!

[Grahf]

Damn, 190 bucks after shipping for a $10 deluxe? I can wait for this one.

[Briggs]

That is funny. I really don't understand people, unless it's a true prototype figure. Do we ever see these things for sale later on, "Prototypes"?

I can understand if it's maybe a year in advance, but these thigns are coming out soon.

Anways, cool fig, sorta. Not my favorite deluxe, but part of that is because I know there is a super amazing cool looking voyager class Prime I want instead! And only 1 prime per collection

[Liege Evilmus]

Who ever paid $160 for this needs "gotta have it" help!

Hell, $20 more could have gotten you a Dai Atlas.

Hell it'll be out soon enough for $10, and even that'll be a rip.

And I don't wanna here that "amazing new style beats G1" crap cause whoever has bank like that to roll over a poopy figure like this is not new to collecting.

So to said collector I say, learn patiencne, stop living free in Mom's basement and buy a house.

If this burst your bubble, GOOD!

[Cyber-Kun]

This Prime looks great, and I'm very excited about this new Transformers show

[Dr. Z]

Those pictures are not new, I've seen them in a previous auction from the same seller (he listed it at least twice for $160 but it never sold).

And what's with mean comments toward fans who can afford paying top dollars for stuff in advance? If they can do it, it's their thing. If I could, I would. Some people buy toys MISB and never open them. Silly, isn't it? They pay top dollars to stare at sealed box. Are they living in their mom's basement as well to be able to waste money like that?

[Jazzz]

he's not even fully painted. who'd pay for that?
blue tires?

[Dr. Z]

Are you color blind? Because the tires are black. :p

[Nekoman]

This is the second time today my news was missed.

[Supreme Convoy]

Looks good!

I'm really impressed by the Animated toys.

[Bluesummers]

Looks like a FAB in vehicle mode...hope these things grow on me soon.

Hey collect as you will, but most items that cost that much are vintage, or rare import and you won't wanna take them out of the box(at least not for long). This is a loose soon to be mass released $10 figure.

That mark up is exorberant for a eliminating a 2 month wait.

Wiether it be by the rich the poor, the mombound or otherwise, that's a $150(plus shipping) pissed away!

[Dr. Z]

I'd rather overpay for toys I can enjoy than overpay for boxed toys I will never enjoy. If toys were meant to stay boxed, designers wouldn't bother making them transformable and we would get statues instead. Some collect for fun, some collect to invest, some collect for bragging rights. As you can see, it's just a matter of perspective.

Or you could just wait it out a bit and have it both ways with a $140 savings

I have alot of figures most are loose, some are boxes. However most of my boxed are dups, and the others rare and/or vintage so that argument don't fly with me.

Hell when your collections are up in the thousands, you start choosing between playable and prosperity so don't give me that!

Here are some pics to prove I'm not talking out my ass, look fo the rare and exclusive figs that by all rights should be kept boxed...

[NightFall]

I don't want it, too plastic and strange. I don't like it at all.

[Black Bumblebee]

He just doesn't look like Prime to me, sorry.

Not bashing the cartoon or anything... he just doesn't look like Prime.
