New pictures of Transformers Animated Roll Out Optimus Prime have surfaced on eBay thanks to power seller etoyshunter

In the auction there is a comparison shot of Prime next to (and dwarfing) Leader Class Bulkhead. To see the auction click here.

etoyshunter is also selling the Japanese version of Universe Nemesis Prime. The main difference between this version and the SDCC version is the colour of the windows and the colour of the weapons, while minor differences can be found in the paint scheme.
Check out this interesting auction here.

Love it. Bulkhead is gonna come with Headmaster! COOL! 8) That may be its only savings grace since it is small. Leader OP is a little on the chunky/bulky side. Unsure about him once again!

Leader Bulkhead ain't small, and you're not looking at Leader Prime in those pictures. You're looking at the massive Roll Out figure, which just might be what Ultimate Bumblebee should've been. His upper body auto-transforms as you roll him forward. Dang, he is huge.

Command Optimus Prime: I'm out.
1. So big he can't scale with any of the other toys.
2. Transforms automatically... giant activator? =;

Nemesis Prime: =P~
1. I only wish.
2. MMMMMM

Why does Nemisis prime have Autobot logos? He's nicer than the SDCC one anyway.

Man, those Animated transformers are gross.

I’ll be getting the US version since to me it sounds foolish to pay into the hundreds or so for red windshields. But it is nice though.

Supreme Prime however is the worst abomination of toy I have ever seen.

A couple of question, because I seem to be out of touch with... everyone :? :
1) What's this got to do with Nemesis Prime?
2) Why is everyone saying this Prime is so bad?

EDIT ~ Wait, I see. The guy's also selling Nemesis Prime. And yes, it does look better than the other one.

How is this Nemesis Prime? He's an Autobot. Seems more like a Henkai Nucleon Quest Convoy.

Thank God that is not Leader OP then. It looks like crap!

1) There's an auction for one
2) Well let's count the ways, crappy alt mode, no good storage for the axe, and the transformation looks really lazy.

Dear Santa:

Please bring me a 2008 Wonderfest Henkei Nemesis Prime this year. I promise to be a good boy. I won't nab Animated toys from children's hands when I got to Toys R Us. I can't promise anything with Universe though - I'm sure you understand. I'll also try not to criticize Hasbro's paint jobs, or Takara's quality control/chrome placement. I'll try real hard not to complain about scalper prices on eBay and how long it takes my orders to arrive. And I'll only mention Botcon Exclusive seekers if absolutely necessary.

Thank you so much Santa! Tell Rudolph I say hi.

-Kirb

P.S. If I bribe you with extra cookies, will it help? You can count on seeing more gingerbread this year!

Agreed. I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought animated prime had a large caboose.

That Nemesis Prime looks gorgeous, tho, IMO. He would be fun to have sit next to my Shattered Glass Prime.

Is it actually "Nemesis Prime" or just the "Black Convoy" repaint that they do in Japan? You know, like they did with both Convoy and Rodimus Convoy.

It's also awfully ironic to see the "NOT FOR SALE" on his shoulder. :P

1.Yeah, you do have a point, considering those are RED AUTOBOT Symbols on him. :???:
2. Not exactly good buisness selling a "not for sale" toy now, is it? :lol: :o)

Yeah, he's definitely a Black Convoy and NOT a Nemesis Prime. Hate it when Japan does that. I'd rather he have the upside-down G2 Autobot logo Scourge had than on his shoulders than a regular Autobot symbol. It looks like I may have to buy both Nemeis Prime and Black Convoy. I love black repaints, namely Nemesis Primes, and I love the Classics Prime molds. So that's excuse enough for me. One day I'll post pictures of my black TF collection.

I don't get why a Japanese toy would have English writing on it. Instead of "NOT FOR SALE", shouldn't it say something like "ない販売のために"?

Roll Out Prime looks like a giant turd.

Nemesis Prime looks infinitely etter, but oddly has Autobot logos.
Re: TFA Roll Out Optimus Prime and Japanese Universe Nemesis Prime on eBay (702385)
Posted by Mkall on May 17th, 2008 @ 1:11am CDT
I think that if the production model still has the bot symbols, then some stickers from reprolabels should fix that.

Blegh...
I cant imagine...

Who is Hasbro marketing the Supreme Animated Prime towards? It seems like a waste for people who like to transform their figures. And as others have pointed out, it doesn't quite fit in with the scale. If it's marketed towards children, I don't understand how they are going to afford it.


Does anyone know anything more about the Black Classics Prime? Is this an exclusive?

Many childred don't pay for their toys with their allowance any more. It's over-induldent parents and whiney children saying "I want it! I want it!" that this toy is marketed at.

With the newest post in the toys forum having an ebay auction for the Rollout Optimus Prime Supreme figure, many people are complaining the price of supremes will go up very high. But, based on Hasbro's online shop, he will only be $50.00. Still worth it?

I like the Voyager Class for Animated Prime better, as i find it to be the one that resembles the cartoon version more. As for this roll out version, i not liking the design much, especially Prime's bumper hugely sticking out of Prime's bottom in robot mode! I guess what makes it cooler is just it's size and gimmicks. :grin:

yeah i agree. but for me it's better for the weapon to be ugly instead of the character itself.
