Review and In Hand Images of Commander Class Studio Series 86 Optimus Prime Showing Scale

Posted by william-james88 Aug 7, 2024 at 8:51pm CDT 95,222 views
Studio Series 86 Commander Class Optimus Prime was released in Hong Kong recently to anyone who attended their show. While some fans got their hands on them, that also meant some resellers could make a pretty penny selling theirs to reviewers wanting a first look. And that's how we got the review below, from Prime vs Prime. We also have a slew of in hand images showing off scale and poseability from Nathan and Shane, who posted on the Botposting Facebook group.

Agreed. Even if it's not a portent of the TARGET: 2006 pianoformer getting an official toy, its regular appearances in these reviews make it feel like a recurring character in its own right. Legacy Baby-Grand?

Op raising it up to finish Megatron reminds me of a Toyfare Magazine fantasy battle where Palisades Dr. Teeth was about to use his keyboard to do the same to Dr. Mindbender.

While I'm on the fence about SS'86 Commander Optimus Prime in lot of ways, the last 2 pics just make me hope more than anything that we get another batch of Commander Ultra Magnus.

Man SS Prime looks cool but I just can't put my finger on why I don't love it. The colors? Looks really blocky I don't know because nothing off the top is bad, just don't love it like some of the other primes realeased.

The legs being full on cartoon accurate by removing all semblance of wheels definitely makes the toy look blocker than previous releases

This Commander Optimus is a budget MP-44.

It is pure perfection with a nice transformation and a perfect look all over. Plus, for once, HE'S IN THE RIGHT GENERATIONS SIZE.

Can't wait to have mine!

Agreed, now I don't have to part ways with any of my SEK Primes like I thought. But again we'll see what we get down the horizon on repaints for this mold. :VEHI:

D-Max, your photo makes me wonder if they will re-release dead prime as part of the 40th anniversary. I think he might be the only version of the ER mold that wasn't re-released yet.

I passed on him originally because I really didn't care about trying to remake the dying scene, but now that we have a sort of sub line of the dead and dying, I would probably buy him if he got a re-release.

If you ever get Dead Prime, you can give his trailer to SG Optimus if you have it. That's what I did and I applied the Reprolabels to complete the look. It works perfectly. Toyhax used the Netflix Nemesis trailer, but I think the Dead trailer works better.

I'm putting this here since it's connected and I don't know where else it would go, it might be nothing but, TF:TM is no longer available on any streaming service that I can see. It used to be available for purchase off Vudu/Fandango home but not anymore. Usually when something like this happens it means a newer release is coming, perhaps we're getting a 40th anniversary release?

Welcome to the world of Streaming. They will take down anything at any time. Unless you have hard media, the odds are that ANYTHING you may like will disappear and you are not going to have choices. Already had issues with iTUnes/Apple regarding almost a dozen albums I purchased for download but they pulled.

I agree 100% ALWAYS purchase physical media when you can. However there are multiple layers to this. Thankfully, this seems to be the less invasive one for now. There are the times when an items become unavailable for purchase (but those who already purchased it still retain it, as seems to be the case with TF:TM see my VUDU screenshot, its still there for now). Then there are times when an item becomes unavailable, and even those who purchased it have it removed from their library.
