Very impressive gallery, Ryan!

wow top work, argh to get Voyager or Leader?

He looks even better than I imagined. It's insane.

One major crit though (and not with the gallery) about the figure...

His waist is awfully small compared to his torso. I do fear that in time, it could easily wear out and break. (Probably could buy the figure again during the sequel films, if they stick with this animation model and what not...)

Perhaps I'm wrong. Did it feel sturdy to you, Ryan?

Congratulations. That's a great gift!

Wow, just wow. That is one incredible toy. And definately looks he fits well with the other versions of Prime. I know longer envy you, I'm out right jealous.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

okay yeah

BEST PRIME EVAR

Nice to see him with the MP Trailer! It seems to fit nicely.
Articulation is surprisingly good.
He does blend in well with the other Primes.
Awesome gallery!

Is it possible to fit the motor engine blaster inside the truck?

I'd rather get the Voyager version. The Leader class is so obese.

What? Where's the Beast Wars galleries? You lied to us!

Heh, get some sleep mate. After seeing that awesome gallery, you deserve every bit. Congrats Ryan!

Pretty spiffy figure....but does anybody else think that Masterpiece Prime still looks like he could take a heavier beating?

Also.....light-up nipples?? WTF??

I'm not sure what the point of those chest lights are, or what they're supposed to represent.

Remember back in the 80's when Gobots would talk and their Windshields would light up while in vehicle mode? I think that's what they are there for.

His windsheild becomes his chest without cheating!!!!

I have been praying for this day a long time-the movie and all its assosiated bit offically rock!

I've been thinking about that for a while, too.

This is a must have figure! Hes PowerMaster Optimus Prime size!

Must have ... I like... kant have spent all mony on MP Megs... Ebay f**k mp Megs... Megs in limbo I... Hate ebay!!
nice gallery

You take such damn good pictures - you're making me want to buy one now! I'll probably just stick to the Voyager Optimus, though. I still gotta eat, y'know.

Hmm. I like it. A lot. Much better than the official images make it look. Now we just need to convince Hasbro to send you a Prime helmet so I can buy it off of you.

Thanks, Mulla!

I have posted the new Beast Wars galleries as of this morning as well which you can view from the toy section.

As much as I generally dislike the design of Movie Prime, I have to admit that this Leader version almost looks better with the Alternators than MP Prime does, both in terms of size and style. That alone could motivate me to buy it.

Ryan, if you have some extra time, some quick shots of him next to a couple of Autobot Alts in bot & vehicle mode would be most appreciated

it's cool, seems so miss-mash though, red and blue every were. jackson pollock optimus prime. Mp prime is still better. but I will probably get this guy.

Ahhhhh, the rewards of having THE #1 TF Site ... ON EARTH! Keep em coming, Ryan!

If it means you'll get cool stuff in the future and that Hasbro is paying attention, I get all my news related to Transformers from here. I buy figures based on the galleries and info I get from this site. I hope Hasbro is able to get you more stuff in advance.

It's GLORIOUS! As I knew it would be! Articulated TOES, dude!

Now all we need is a White repaint called "Ultra Magnus"...

Something about the paint scheme just doesnt seem right to me. I dont like the head, looks too bug like to me.

So do I my friend, so do I

Thank you, Lord Cthulhu, for what looks to be the sweetest transformation I have seen in a long time... a long time.

Now if they would make a leader class everybody... okay just Ironhide and Blackout, I could die happy.

So, Seibs... where do you live, exactly? j/k

Crap... I was set on getting the voyager class.

This is convincing me to buy the leader class. Very cool figure!

we all know it's coming...ugh.

Who knows? Maybe they'll mix it up and repaint him as Thunderclash

Fantastic gallery Ryan, and one of the most spectacular transformations I've seen in quite a while! Roll on June!

Nice gallery, Ryan. He definitely looks better than in any previous pics.

I knew i shoulnt've looked. I need to find these damn movie toys. That prime is kick ass. I guess the try me thing is for the automorph feature. Cant wait to see this guy on the big screen. I like the pic with all the primes at the end. You should take one with all the Optimus toys. From g1 all the way to cybertron and clasics.

Awesome Gallery Ryan. I wish Hasbro sent me free Leader Class Figures

He's looking good. Looks like an Intricate Transformation.

I think i might just cave in, get him.

Many thanx for the galleries. And Congrats on the cool surprise by Hasbro.

hey thanks for the pictures made my decision alot easyier leader class all the way to bad they didnt make it where they have every transformer for each class that appear in the film more detail the better with me thats how i like them.

The try me button is used for him to remove his mouth shield when speaking and scar your G1 childhood.

Actually I was wondering what the try me but was for as well. I also want to know what Robo Vision means. Do you look through a hole in the back of his head and see everything through Optimus' optics like Emporer Zurg in Toy Story 2?

Cool gallery .

One of the greatest pics ever(and I'm not even a Prime nut):



One thing: Why does Voyager class Prime get two cool looking rifles that can clip onto his front for some firepower in vehicle mode, and leader class Prime gets a little pistol?

It's not a little pistol actually, it's his arm. It doesn't translate well into plastic, but in the movie, his entire forearm becomes a BFG of doom.

From what i can gather from the Ryan's amazing gallery, he has a Forearm weapon, and a gun that attaches to his arm, but is infact removable.

Forearm gun:



Detachable Gun:

I like this figure, as long as I don't think of it as 'Optimus Prime' nor a transformer. Really digging the truck, as always (but I still don't think it's Prime enough). Using the fuel tanks as battery compartments is a great idea.

I couldn't care less about the lights and sounds (not worth sacrificing an interior complete with Peter Cullen figure!). Glowing tits and maybe some horn honks aren't that cool in my book.

The automorph thing looks FAIL to me. Pulling a switch to pop up his head? That's actually pretty handy (though hardly 'advanced')! But having the switch split up his chest, one of the only G1 parts of the figure?? That's a punk move. Is there a way to keep the head up and keep the windshields together that doesn't involve opening the chest and screwing around?

He will be mine...oh yes...he WILL be MINE!

Now that I've looked at every picture of that gallery, things I overlooked have killed my enthusiasm. Last time I looked at the gallery, I liked the figure even though I didn't want to, know I don't like it even though I'm trying to.

I really think they should have ball-jointed the head. What's the point of having light-up eyes if he can't look forward nor up due to what looks like backheaviness?

Oh well. I'll drop the 70 bucks on a kickass Lego set instead.

The gun is detachable to deter breakage. Nothing else. That is indeed his forearm BFG of doom.

I think today is the biggest traffic day that we've ever had on the site because of this gallery. It's not as big of a day as I had hoped, but it's certainly close enough. I think we're going to hit around 390,000 pageviews for today. Our previous record was when I posted a gallery back in January of diablien's prototype of Voyager class Starscream. I think we hit around 378,000 pageviews on that day.

This is interesting ... look at which galleries are in the current top 4:

Mind you, I've only been tracking gallery popularity for about 3 months now, but still!

79,540 images of 1,157 figures? Only 20,000 more pictures to reach 100,000!

hi guys,

not sure if this has been asked before but what is the difference between the Hasbro Movie Leader Class OP & the one that is going to be released by TakaraTomy (MA-01)?

No chrome? That's about the only thing this toy really lacks...
