Newly Revealed Cyberverse Toy has a Live Action Movie Optimus Prime Robot Mode

Why does that look like a better Bulkhead truck than Legacy?

I think THIS is the Optimus based on Bulkhead that we will see in Legacy.

Very very strange.

Robot mode has definite Bumblebee movie Prime parts, arms, chest, legs, very much pointing to BB Prime.

Alt mode however point to the Legacy Prime repaint of Bulkhead which is even stranger.

Is this supposed to be a mashup of different Primes? Or is this what that Bullhead repaint is going to look like?

It's clearly not Earthspark Prime in any way, so is this just a one off? A new line of Cyberverse figures based on the Legacy designs?

This seems super out of left field even for Hasbro.

Haha, and yeah that's the confusing bit. We'll see what happens in a month and a half. If toys don't come out then they reoriented themselves in time for the packaging phase.

People in the know (supposedly) are talking online in various message boards now that this toy has been shown. I covered that here, though I guess the discussion will continue here.

Warrior Snarl is a pretty neat toy. So good that I can forgive his partsforming tail.

The tail even serves a purpose in robot mode, as it's the sheath for his sword.

Of course. If it work as storage for the dino mode, it work as storage in robot mode as well.

Still, it baffle me is that in no way the bot can wield that tail as a club. That's one hell of a design oversight.

It can, just insert the sword in and stick it on the hand.

Still no dual wielding unfortunately.

So i found the Officer Class Optimus Prime at Ollies tonight, and decided to try him out once I realized how many joints he had and how he looked in hand.

And, he is good. Like, surprisingly good. First of all, he is very solid, this is a toy designed to be played with. He is also surprisingly posable: all the arm and leg joints you could want, he has ankles but no wrists mind you, and both of his heads are on swivels. So he can throw some moves.

He also has a nice design. I like the Cyberverse Prime design, and this one, like the deluxe, does a good job of capturing that look and those proportions. His base head is nice too. But then, that armor is well sculpted, and the super mode head is super awesome, I love Prime with extra faceplate details and a visor. I only wish there was some silver paint on the chest, but that is a minor thing for how good he is.

The chest armor also tabs into place, adding stability for the armor piece. Weapons are cool too, the shield design is neat, and I like a big ole sword.

So yeah, he is fantastic. Well worth the buy. He surprised me in the most pleasant way.

I have the first Ultimate with the annoying chest gimmick and the one with the Ark armor as far as the really big Primes go, they're both pretty neat in their own ways. I almost bought that one when I saw it on clearance a few weeks ago, but thought I had enough big Cyberverse Primes, but now your pictures make me think I really should get it sometime.
