Hey everyone, TF Yuki has tweeted some new images of Takara's TAV 21 Optimus Prime figure which was made exclusively for their market. This is in honor of the figure finally being out in retail and shipping from online retailers. These images give a very good indication of his large size which is in between Leader and Supreme class. Did any of you preorder him or are you waiting for some reviews? Anyone waiting on the retool instead? Sound off in the Energon Pub!

Sorry. Sunday morning headache (not alcohol related either!). May come across as grumpy. Don't take too much of what I say to heart today.

C'mon, guys. It's not that bad. It's the price to pay for a working trailer. Plus, it's not as bad as other figures like Original RID Ultra Magnus.

Rid Magnus! And that toy was all the craze in the best design thread back in the day:

Yeah, but you can't do a transformation like that on RID Prime and still have it look like the character. What they could have done is made the lower legs collapse an inch or so, but they clearly wanted to give him height.

Personally I'm not that bothered by the proportions, I don't think the legs are as ridiculously long as RID 2000 Ultra Magnus' legs and the proportions are the same as Warrior class Optimus Prime.

I'm surprised TFYuki didn't compare Optimus to his beloved Star Saber since he's the same size as Superion.

Compared to the show model, the toy have the lower legs a thigh leight too long. That's not perfection, but I'd still take this over the bricktastic mega 1/3 step changers.

He doesnt even appear when you search TAV, which is what I usually do to see the latest offerings http://slist.amiami.com/top/search/list?s_keywords=tav&pagemax=40&getcnt=0&pagecnt=1

Regardless, enough customers found him no problem it seems.

Weird thing is, it didn't show up in the Pre-orders until it was too late. Good thing I got the "Over-dude" when a stray "available" slot appeared.

You know what guys, I think Amiami is going to the old practice of using two online order pages. Years back, they had a Japan and International page. There were some goods offered at bottom floor prices sale in the former and none in the latter. I thought it was removed already but it seems, they're back to the old practice as Runabout simply evaporated.

I wouldn't mind getting a closer look at him. If you don't mind. Maybe a comparison with a warrior class or something whose size we are all familiar with.

Thanx K. :D

And done! Here's the pictures I took of TAV-21 Optimus Prime and TAV-23 Jazz.

Despite his finnicky transformation, Optimus is well worth owning and the infamous leg gap don't bother me at all. Also, Takara Jazz is a sight to behold!

So, enjoy!

Seibertron's very own Kanrabat was kind to snap a bunch of photos providing a more in depth look at Takara's TAV 21 Optimus Prime (get it? because the trailer has depth this time, I am here all week!), which is an exclusive Takara mold. He was released the same time as TAV 23 Jazz, of which Kanrabat also took some picutres.

I used EMS. It was a whopping 4000y of shipping, but the other option was SAL at 3850y. So, EMS it was. And MAN, that was almost Star-Trek Beam-Me-Up fast!

Try some Gary Chalk as Prime. It might expand your horizons of acceptable voice actors for robots named Optimus.

Thank goodness you chose a Cybertron clip and not one from Armada or Energon.

Though, Neil Kaplan and David Kaye are great Optimuses too, with Kaye working well as a young Optimus and Kaplan being self-proclaimed as "the George Lazenby of Optimus Primes". ;)
