New Upcoming Toy Images: New Bot Shots and Weaponizer Optimus Prime

Hallow base prime.
That voyager looks wierd. maybe mis-transformed?

Interesting. That new Optimus looks promising.

That Prime does look better than Powerizers Prime.

Could that be the leader sized "Weaponizer" Prime? I hope that dual shoulder cannon thing is detachable though.

And I instantly regret buying the powerizer Prime, as this looks much better. Oh well.

That optimus maximus looks SICK! Wonder how long we will have to wait for that one?

i don't quite understand why people are using the term powerizers and revealers.. aren't those names just the gimmick term? it still says deluxe and voyager on the packaging.

anyways. it seems like they always do this.. they release several different molds of the same character.. each mold does something very well.. but they can never add them all into one. for instance.. the legs on this new figure.. why couldn't they just use the RiD prime's legs? i just hope there's some way to make those wheels disappear a little.. or at least move back further.

For the moment he looks like he was built out of spare parts of other Prime's...Wreck Gar I'm looking at your direction.

Dear Hasblow,

Please release toys of different characters.

The red, blue and especially yellow cells in my eyes are over-strained from all the versions of Optimus and Bumblebee on both my, and toy aisle shelves. I refuse to buy additional versions of the same character, in the same deco anymore.

Thank you.

That's the Leader Class mold of Optimus. Almost impressed me until I saw the flaps sticking up on his shoulders. Reminds me of TF1 Optimus.

PASS.

I only like leader lass figures if the character in question was meant to be enormous. But this is just another case of them making a leader class prime "because Prime always sells" which is just bullshit and doesn't really work that well. Whatever it sucks and I don't care.

Weaponizer Prime doesn't look very good for a leader size figure. He just looks... off.

Bass Prime doesn't look as promising as I thought but it's too early to tell.

So now we can have an army of mini Optimus Primes, a Target Master Optimus Prime, and a Head Master Optimus Prime operate a giant Cityformer Optimus Prime?

Sounds about right. Did you know Brawl and Bonecrusher had a baby? pic proof ^

It certainly does look better than RiD voyager Optimus, but it doesn't look like it'll beat First Edition. It's got Bulkhead levels of bulk in his chest but with normal proportioned limbs. And let's give it up for a (possible) leader class figure without painted rims.

Optimus Maximus has me intrigued but I doubt I'll bite. I know I'm probably wrong but that shot makes it look like he's got a G1 Ultra Magnus head.

Leader-class Primes are usually the most in-scale with other figures, particularly with Deluxe cars.

Prime Weaponizers - Leader Class figures. Choose from Bumblebee or Optimus Prime who was on display, these new larger scale figures feature 4 modes of play with concealed weapons, Prime himself had a set of gattling guns which can flip out from under his hood in truck mode or mount the shoulders in robot mode. They have been simplified over previous leaders so the core audience of children can transform them more easily.

Well, I didn't have very high hopes based on the initial description; but that actually looks quite good. Here's hoping we get a Megatron in that size class. (Especially after seeing the initial reviews of the Powerizer Megatron.)

can we please just call it "voyager" megatron.. not powerizer.. as it does infact say voyager on the packaging. lol

Dangnabbit, I was going make a comment about Deep Desert Brawl, but now you got me thinking it's a hate-filled love-child of two of the Cons from TF1.


...And now I want it to actually be a bouncing baby Bonebrawler.

I'm anxiously awaiting pictures of Optimus Maximus in alt-mode. The sooner I see it the sooner I can be crushed because it sucks, and the healing process can begin.

(I've been wanting a new, real baseformer for a very long time. The best we've had since the end of G1 was Cybertron Metroplex, who pointedly did not actually transform into any kind of base whatsoever.)

Yeah, just go and simplify Transformers. For years kids have had to transform complex figures and managed just fine. Why now is it so hard. The level of complexity is a signature part of the Transformers brand. Leave the simple transformations to the Gobots!

I disagree with the above post. I think it's refreshing to have a more easy to transform line now. After 3 movies of thin panels not completely folding into place.
I like complex transformations, but I also like the Armada line. And that killer Euro exclusive line (wish they actually had articulation).

I already have a few First Editions and the RID line will be released in Holland in april. So I'll see.

In terms of Vehicle size this would be accurate. But I go by bot size.

He's either voyager or Ultra class. I simply prefer voyager due to the lack of over encumbering electronics. Also Megatron would have to be the next size up.

So perhaps if they release an ultra class Optimus and leader class Megatron? The problem being, at this time I have my doubts about them releasing a leader class Megatron to match. Since the only Megatron available is a voyager, my Optimus should also be a voyager.
