The Transformers Facebook Page has released a new picture for us to check out, this time in the form of the toy packaging for the upcoming voyager class Premier Edition Optimus Prime! The new packaging features a new image of Prime charging out out of the lower left corner, with the toy itself visible through the window, much like the regular voyager releases of late. It also has The Last Knight logo on the bottom below the name, along with Transformers printed vertically along the right side. Check out the image below, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

I think I'll pick this up when it's gone on sale.
The box design looks the same as aoe, so at least it's consistent.

I kind of wonder how this is going to be released. Is it just going to be an early release available at general retail or is it going to be exclusive to somewhere? I can't imagine it being that much different from the real voyager like First Edition AoE Prime was (or leader class, you know what I mean).

I think I'll wait to see what the Japanese do with it.

Bit weird it has two different Transformers logos but does that mean the vertical red font one is the overall brand logo (with the one used above The Last Knight is for movie stuff?) Overall it's like the previous movie boxes but just... nicer.

Correct, the red vertical logo is the one for the overall brand and used in all lines. It's been like that since Age of Extinction, and it's used by both Hasbro and TakaraTomy no less.

Though, Takara has inverted its colors for the Legends line, using white letters on a red background instead.JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:Carnivius_Prime wrote:Bit weird it has two different Transformers logos but does that mean the vertical red font one is the overall brand logo (with the one used above The Last Knight is for movie stuff?)

Take this with an entire bucket of salt, but it appears that a user on /toy/ has found a leaked image of what seems to be the leader class version of Optimus Prime from the upcoming Transformers: The Last Knight live-action movie toyline. The image, mirrored below, is a grey prototype with blue helmet and sword - check it out, and speculate away!

Now this looks like the new-trilogy prime toy we've been waiting for!

My AOE Prime is practically in the trash can already. If this thing has a decent vehicle mode, then I'll pay up. That's some Masterpiece level engineering! ![:BOT:]( "Autobot")

Let's hope this is at Toy Fair. I wonder how many people are going to buy the Premier Edition knowing this is potentially coming later?
If this is real then it's nice to see Hasbro finally realizing that a movie that'll likely gross a billion dollars is worth a toy line with a big budget. They seemed to forget that with AOE, but this could be a sign of them returning to the level we saw with the RotF and DotM lines. I'm thinking we might get a proper Triple Changer Drift in this line.

That looks... off. I mean, it's been compressed and blown up to hell, but still everything's flat and angular (what's up with the belly?), and it sorta looks like somebody built up on an existing figure than having engineered a full new (transforming) toy.

I don't think that's it and if it is then it's a tiny one since there's nothing behind his lower back. I think those are hinges and he transforms similar to CW Megatron with the entire chest folding up to form the top of the truck hood.

Thats because its a 3p figure:

And I guess its their take on Optimus from Prime, not the movie universe. But both take hint of one another so it could go either way.

That's definitely based on the AOE Optimus design. No other Optimus has those torso pectoral pieces, that shoulder kibble, that knight skirt, and that pair of back-mounted triple smokestacks.william-james88 wrote:Noideaforaname wrote:That looks... off.
