First Figure from Transformers: Age of Extinction
The battle against extinction begins here! As the Age of Extinction dawns, the Autobots find themselves fighting powerful new enemies from both Earth and beyond. The Autobot Leader Optimus Prime charges back into battle with a new alternate mode, a new design, and new weapons. This 10-inch tall Optimus Prime movie figure comes with the mighty Sword of Judgment and the battle-forged Sentinel Shield. Kids can imagine they're defending Earth with the heroic Autobot leader. This is also your first chance to bring home a figure inspired by the Transformers: Age of Extinction movie. It's not only the first edition of Optimus Prime, it's the first Age of Extinction edition of any Transformers robot!
Battle Decepticons and Defend Earth with Optimus Prime
he Autobots were perilously close to a destiny-altering defeat in the Battle of Chicago. Their leader, Optimus Prime, suffered heavy damage, but managed to survive the battle, dealing a crushing blow to his arch-nemesis Megatron in the process. While the Decepticon leader may have fallen, new threats have risen in his place. If the Autobots are to defend the planet they have sworn to protect, they must find a way to defeat powerful new enemies. In a world where their standing is more uncertain than ever, one thing remains constant: their unyielding leader, Optimus Prime, will be at the forefront of the coming battle.
Changes in 15 Steps
This 10-inch-tall Optimus Prime figure converts from a robot warrior to a semi truck and back again. Change from robot to truck mode in 15 steps and roll out. Reverse the same 15 steps to change back to robot mode and gear up for battle with the included Sword of Judgment and Sentinel Shield. It's the first Optimus Prime figure to feature the Autobot Leader's look from Transformers: Age of Extinction.
Includes: Converting Optimus Prime figure, Sword of Judgment, Sentinel Shield and instructions.

Were these objects in any previous series, or are these completely original?

Fits Movie Optimus though, I bet this is his execution sword and he uses it exclusively to chop heads off.

Or it's these guys. Also possible.

Hem, now that I think about it. The movies do take place in one of many alternate universes. And the Autobots have turned more violent and unforgiving than in most other universes. Optimus does enjoy executing enemies.
Holy crap, Movie Optimus totally is a Dark Judge. Calling it now, this movie ends with Optimus going all "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings, but true freedom can only be had when every sentient being is dead. Therefore we must kill everything to ensure peace!"
Would make sense.

That was one face, but if you look at all his fights, he always goes straight for the head, the man loves getting head.

Let's see... at the very least he got Grindor's, the Fallen and Megatron's. His rack must be amazing... His trophy rack that is.

His rack is amazing, bigger than most. But he's very protective over it, you can touch them.

A good video review with a nice transformation sequence.

A sale to clear out the overstock, which Amazon is known to do. A lot.
I won't pay full price for it, no way, no how. Plus, I'd like to see one without chrome. I think plain, painted plastic would work better. As is, this is just bad looking. Even if I could get past the mold, that deco hurts. So bad.

I have seen more than enough to know I do not want this embarrassment toy. If one comes along that is actually geared at people that don't suffer from the effects of a lobotomy, and it is screen accurate, then I may consider it. It's real easy for me. No matter what character it is supposed to be, if I don't like it, I don't buy it.

Backpack alert!
Those long blue pieces hanging down, you would think they would fold up to cover the tyres, as the tyres look thin enough to fit in, which would help to tidy up the backpack/kibble?

You should ask your parents for a refund.

Then HasTak would of had to change the 15 steps conversions words to 16 steps. Perhaps the Extra conversion step would have made this too complex for HasTak's targeted kids buyers age to play with.
3rd party companies are bound to create a jetpack to fit over the backpack of this toy to make it look better.
My AOE FE Optimus arrived in the mail today. It came in a really narrow short compact brown shipping box. When I saw this,I thought Amazon got my order wrong. Hasbro Also put this toy in a really compact Ultra sized box.

So do those two hanging pieces fold up then?

Guess the Wiki can replace the Shell-former/Kibble page's main pic.

Words just fail me. Now that's shell-former personified.

2 In 1, now you can play with two toys at the SAME TIME!
Also, called it, without the kibble it looks pretty boss.
