In Hand Images of Asia Exclusive Shadow Spark Optimus Prime from Transformers: The Last Knight

Where's the Optimus toy? All I see is Skywarp's shadow everywhere.

Did they run out of paint when they got to the feet and shoulders? They seem completely devoid of any wash or panel lining.

But they already have shown him.

So, that's the deluxe TLK Bee? Nice but I may get only on sale. My hive is full enough... But there is a place for the QUEEN.
I mean, the upcoming MP-Movie Bee.

I realised after I had a think about it that I had seen that Bee before - as I remember the wheels In the feet being an unusual feature.

I don't know if I like or dislike the gun being fixed (if it is fixed) I'm kinda spoiled by Bee's with moving face masks and transforming weapons. Also I feel he needs his Hammer (is it?).

As for Optimus - I don't mind he colours or the muted deco so much if it's well in keeping with the evil Optimus in the Movie - I would have liked a different colour sword and shield and perhaps a slightly different grey a shade darker and perhaps metallic plastic. I agree the lack of paint on the shoulders is very obvious.

It is a shame they didn't use the newer mould as that is much more fun with the changing face and the more possable feet.

It does inspire me to want to buy a KBB one and paint it like this or go out and buy the Wei Jiang battle damaged Commander though.

I think I'd have preferred a straight up dark deco one that wasn't so burned and scuffed - something that sat between Nemesis Prime and deco and the old 2008 Night Watch Prime (UK/Japan version that has bronze accents instead of allspark blue). Maybe a very dark blue almost black & a deep crimson would have been nice.

But it's an interesting curiosity piece.

I am aware they go there in the CGI model - I was just saying that Wheels in the feet >on the toys< are not especially common - they are usually on the outside of the ankles on the majority of toys - not embedded in the feet and if they are in the middle of the feet they are usually fake wheel like Nitro Bumblebee or TF Prime Weaponizer Bumblebee.

No problem - I should have been more specific.

I am still deciding on what would be my first Optimus so that might make my perception a little different since I want a figure to represent Prime in my collection as opposed to "here is a cool variant of his character".

Would it help your decision process to know that this toy will only be distributed in Asia and that there will be a mark up if you want to buy it from an importer? I would be surprised if this toy is available for less than $70 at BBTS. How much are you willing to spend on your first Optimus Prime? The Masterpiece is being reissued this year, plus there is a movie masterpiece coming too.

Berserker is getting a one step apparently.

This is his second known toy I don't think a non-movie character would get two since starting with Aoe they are starting to get light on toy only characters and besides Rollbar from Aoe who only had one original mold anyways most toy only characters have only one toy and they don't usually have their own mold for example Hotshot was just a repaint of Crosshairs with no new parts.

Wait is Berserker a police car in that one step or just a squished van?

Can't say for sure because the image is small and it's in a package.

Edit: Also 20 points news credits for Gryffindor Deadput!

That optimus.. i thought it was a tf:prime ultra magnus.. might as well be ultra magnus.. looks like ultra magnus.

Those Vehicons were based on cars in the movie akin to Longarm in 2007 and Rollbar in Aoe and they only had one original each mold anyways and it was not a deluxe.

As far as we know Berserker is not based on any particular vehicle in the movie and Berserker is also part of wave 1 with Bee and Barricade who are booth very important characters in the upcoming movie, yes Slash is in the same wave too but first it's a repaint not a new mold and secondly Slash or multiples of him were supposed to be in Aoe being in plenty of concept art so for all we know Slash is in TLK this time. most of these toy only characters come in later waves such as the Aoe Vehicon you mentioned who was an end of the line figure.

Also importantly Berserker has two new molds for him something Rollbar doesn't even have since his deluxe figure was just a repaint of a Generations figure as well as being in an exclusive box set I'm sure that Berserker is one of those hi and bye characters who won't be named in the movie but then again we also had no idea Nitro was a character until we saw him in a trailer then his toy and name being leaked for all we know Berserker never transforms in the movie.

I think Berserker is either one of the cons in the high security prison that was mentioned in early information or the junkyard with disposed cons who might or might not be dead which is for sure where Barricade comes from.
