Hmm, a robot with skinny yet muscular legs inside an exoskeleton is what it looks like to me. Looks wierd to me.

That is one damn fine figure. I'm on it like white on rice.

EDIT: Err, one question? How the hell did they get the figure? I don't recall any eBay auctions for him.

Posted by cellshock on March 22nd, 2007 @ 4:19am CDT

Awful. It's a big brick with wheels and a gay disco paint job. Even though it's the almighty Optimus Prime, I can't convince myself to like it. The voyager sized version, on the other hand, still has me intrigued. Hopefully they don't blotch it the same way.

i kinda like the way it looks

Posted by osiricon on March 22nd, 2007 @ 7:41am CDT

Nice!! I think he looks good I will get him. I really want to see Megs. I wonder what gimmick he has? The lights on Ops works for me,but it looks like his head lights are not on. I wish he had rubber wheels. Not the cheap rubber that cracks either. So far I dig the movie line figs. I will get them all!! Then I can set my plans for WORLD DOMINATION on to motion! AAH HA HA AAH HA HA!!!!

There was absolutely no reason to post the exact same thing that you posted on page 1

Now for Prime...
Lots of kibble.. I will most likely end up picking him up.

It shall be mine!! I want that in Masterpiece but in Movie proportions and with the empire magazine look..

That toy reminds me of M.A.S.K....

The front windows that become the chest look just a little bit off. It almost looks like if you remove Prime's head the windows and lower abdomen make a robot face, with the visor over the windows being eyebrows. Wierd.

I think it's the visors that bug me. And the coloring. Still, I don't think they bug me enough that I won't get him. Overall I think he looks pretty good. The articulation looks like it might be great from the pics.

whoever designed these movie bots should be fired along with the "experts" that ok'd all these pieces of crap. if you like a tf to be a clunky mess then i'm sure you love this "prime".

Nah, Kiss Megs dosnt exist outside of some rather disturbing mangas yet...

I dunno... He's not aweful, but something dosnt site right with me either.

And they could have atleast chromed his front grill.

The alt mode is the best thing about the toy. Ill buy it just for that. Luckly the robot mode looks good to.

Re: New Pictures of Movie Leader Class Optimus Prime (61249)
Posted by jonusjaxon on March 22nd, 2007 @ 11:07am CDT

Meh... I expected better for $40. It'll need a custom paint job.

I'm digging the truck mode. It's nice, but it doesn't feel "Optimus Prime" at ALL to me. The robot form is terrible and the light gimmick does nothing for me. I don't think I'll be buying it just for the truck mode. I'll have to pass.

Re: New Pictures of Movie Leader Class Optimus Prime (61306)
Posted by Maldroth on March 22nd, 2007 @ 12:12pm CDT

don't know honestly I'll have to wait and see it in the galleries posed to see if it will pass into my collection. I like it but something seems off about it yet.

I'd like the figure more in these pics if it didn't look like a monkey took the pictures.

Average at best for the moment.

Once this becomes available, I'd like to see someone take a photo of it with MP Prime holding it in a choke hold while pointing his gun at his head.

These dont look as good as the other pics, but it still looks worth buying.

Re: New Pictures of Movie Leader Class Optimus Prime (61357)
Posted by Overcracker on March 22nd, 2007 @ 1:16pm CDT

I like it. The voyager one we saw along time ago looked better. but this one is not bad. I'm totally digging the Truck mode.

As someone already said totally reminds me of Rhino from M.A.S.K.

I'm not sure i get the purpose of lights inside the cab, but it looks good.

I'm still gonna wait to see it in person before i make my decision. but its not bad.

Looks bulkier than the first pics we saw. I guess that's what the color does.
I've been wondering something...
How come they can get away with the long stacks now?
Also,
Isn't this one supposed to be the Ultimate class, which will be around 80 bucks?

Re: New Pictures of Movie Leader Class Optimus Prime (61407)
Posted by Basketball Jones on March 22nd, 2007 @ 2:13pm CDT

An intriguing fusion of trukk and munky, but approximately 30% more chrome would have drastically increased the aesthetic value of this figure.

Nope this is Leader Class Prime.

There have been no pics or comments about an Ultimate Class Prime. Only Bumblebee.

As for the smokestacks, i don't know they look kind of rubbery to me. Like Cyb Vector Prime's sword only in gray. Or they are going to put a disclaimer in the box saying:
"Caution Smokestacks may poke your stupid kid's eye out. No legal liability can befall Hasbro for this event."

Makes me wonder why they left the tall stacks off of Ironhide. Love the photoshop on the Ratchet mould BTW.

I have to give credit where credit is due hasbro has made me a beleaver in the movie toy line with this figure.

not a bad looking prime, but its a BayFormer....I just can't bring myself to like the BayFormers

Posted by Casual Matt on March 23rd, 2007 @ 8:59am CDT

Looks okay to me. Not the best of the lot but not the worst either. Personally, I think Ironhide and Ratchet are the best movie figures I've seen so far.

I don't know, as for your sig.. i just think movie ratchet should be colored in black and called trailbreaker, and movie ironhide should be colored red then it would make sense, as far as ratchet, he should be an amublance of some sort.. or military repair vehicle..

I don't know why they don't just put that on the box, so Prime doesn't have to have his man-hood chopped off...

Gee thanx. It was a real rush job actually. But i just had to recolor them to see what they would look like. Ratchet looks pretty good if I do say so myself.

I think Movie Ironhide should be Trailbreaker (Black pick-up truck), and the Ratchet mould in my sig, which is actually rescue vehicle in the movie, can take on a red color scheme and be Ironhide. He is a hummer and fits Ironhide pretty good.
