Damn, I think Voyager Movie Prime is going to give Armada Bendy Prime a run for his money in being the most repainted Prime figure ever! :shock:

lol, I love that that driver's still in there, sitting there as if nothing happened at all.

This may be the only repaint I get. Or possibly hold off on normal Voyager Prime and get this one.

Smells of a fan custom. Time will tell. In box pics should be around the corner.

Looks a lot like gray paint overspray Prime to me. I'll stick with my Robovision.

To bad its only paint apps and no remolded parts like Jazz. But i want him. I only have Robo-vision prime and still cant find normal voayager prime so ill have to pick this one up. He'll make a nice addition to my battle scene. And this way i can put Robo-Vison prime back in his box.

to be honest im not fond of battle damge figures... they look wasted, silly me they are supposed to be like that! :P

Just another custom paint job. You guys should verify your sources before posting stuff like that. :)

Meh, I've always been against buying two of the exact same figure if the only difference is a cosmetic change. I'll pass.

the scrapes on the legs seem pretty cool but in all.... too over the top
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268587)
Posted by Fury on August 7th, 2007 @ 3:10pm CDT
Man, ok. Hasbro needs to stop this now really. If we want some battle damage on our bots, we will paint them ousrselves k? And if this was done by a fan, he should keep practicing a little more...

Some details are well done, but overall, its not looking too good. Not worth it.
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268589)
Posted by Unicron's Head on August 7th, 2007 @ 3:10pm CDT
Funny, the majority of the damage is in his left waist/hip area. I don't remember that being a focus in the new live action movie, but that's where Megatron blasted him eighty bajillion times back in the '86 version. Kinda neat. "I fear the wounds are...fatal"
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268591)
Posted by lanzajr26 on August 7th, 2007 @ 3:11pm CDT
I'm not sold on all the "battle-damaged" repaints. I suppose it's better than trying to do your own but it's starting to seem like overkill.
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268597)
Posted by tom brokaw on August 7th, 2007 @ 3:17pm CDT
im not impressed. the grey/ silver parts dont look worn at all. it like he's half clean and half dirty, but no actualy damaged parts. whether it is a custom or really from hasbro, im not feelin' it....

It looks fan made....i can do a better job than that, and i just acquired a voyager prime as well.

Posted by softimus_prime on August 7th, 2007 @ 3:26pm CDT
i'll be broke if hasbro hired porfessionals on the paint application dept. then they released all the movie figures with realistic mettalic paints with no smudges or no paint passing though others surfaces with proper washes...






which i think is impossible... :cry:

Well that sucked!

If Hasbro wants to start doing Battle Damaged figures, I wish they would take a page from Gundam's book and do some retooling as apose to crappy paint aps.

I'd rther just get a plain one and take a lighter to it!

Kinda like this...

I like the damage to the front of the truck and the arms. I do not like the paint on the head, looks like they just dipped half his face in glue and then in coal dust. Better the give him a new head that had sculpted damage.

pretty impressive i like what you did to the legs! the paint is very detailed! :grin: :P

Finally, Battle Damage that LOOKS like Battle Damage rather than just 'dirty paint apps'! The robot mode is missing A LOT of damage paint apps. A wash on the feet, hands, guns, head, and chest would have helped a lot.
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268742)
Posted by Skowl on August 7th, 2007 @ 4:37pm CDT
Looks alright. Too many Primes in this line though... and the Voyager mold is the weakest.

I'm still waiting for a larger Bonecrusher figure...
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268784)
Posted by CloudBreaker22 on August 7th, 2007 @ 4:58pm CDT
I really like this dirty Prime,It has a lot of detail to it. I may just have to wait and pick up this one.
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268819)
Posted by Slumble B on August 7th, 2007 @ 5:16pm CDT
I like it. The paint apps look better than the battle damaged Bumble Bee AND this time the bot mode is damaged as well.

If I don't ever find the Leader Prime I will get this one just to have a movie version of him. Otherwise, probably not.

Posted by Flint on August 7th, 2007 @ 5:20pm CDT
It's funny because I have never even seen regular Voyager Prime or voyager Megs for that matter and now here's another version that I probably won't.

I am perfectly happy with my leader Prime.
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268841)
Posted by D-340 on August 7th, 2007 @ 5:25pm CDT
Looks cool. The only way I'm getting this one is if I can't get the regular Voyager. I like this Prime, but I don't see any reason to get the same mold multiple times.
Re: First Images of Movie Battle Damaged Optimus Prime (268873)
Posted by shortround on August 7th, 2007 @ 5:46pm CDT
WOW it is the first battle damaged figure I'm thinking about getting. He looks amazing I really like the grill which looks a bit more metal than the other voyager primes. He also seems to be missing the driver but that is cool.

Okay, they took a screwed up looking Prime and screwed it up more. Pass. Are Universe Classics here yet?
