Transformers Legacy United Animated Optimus Prime and Bumblebee Revealed

I'm liking the Optimus more then the Bumblebee. These are both pick ups for me. As long as they keep doing a good job with my favorite TF series I'll add them to my collection.

Also I'm glab they showed Primes. If there is one Prime that should always show his face it's this one.

Optimus looks the best one yet, we know what else will be in this wave don't we from leaks?

Yes, tons of good stuff

JTPrime teased the name almost a full month ago.

"Once all is revealed hopefully the toyline will finally be United."

Prime looks pretty good, his legs look a bit messy with the cheap looking wheels but not minding what they have done with the forearms. vehicle mode going to 6 wheels intead of 4 might have been needed for rolling purposes. At voyager price he should have the faceplate gimmick though or interchangable heads.

Bee might look better with the rims of his feet painted black and shouldnt look too much like all the other non animated bees that have the bumpers on the feet pointing forwards.

On a personal note,his transformation seens based on the deluxe toy, so that is a win for me.

Great work work Hastak!


Day 1358 of waiting for Transformers Armada Masterpiece news.

Bro, you got or are getting Commander Armada Prime, right?

I like these animated reveals even though I wasn't a fan of the show or aesthetic. One thing that kinda disappoints me is that Prime doesn't have the flip up face plate and his axe doesn't look like it opens for a double sided blade.

Optimus looks pretty good. The lower legs are a little iffy but the upper body is spot on, love the axe and love the face sculpt. I wouldve like a mouthplate gimmick as I've always preferred Optimus that way but this one looks solid either way. Maybe there'll be a variant down the line with a mouthplate in a buzzworthy pack or something

That being said, I'm on the fence about this guy. Might get him and headcanon him as Orion Pax or something

On the fence about Bumblebee too. Looks great, but I might wanna wait on a Prime universe Bee down the line

Can't wait to see Tigerhawk
That'll be an instant preorder

Also really excited for tasmanian kid and thundertron

Looks really good. Not feeling the stubby feet though.

Glad the spinny waist gimmick was done away with.

The lack of face mask is a bit of a downer though, and the stubby feet are less that great, but otherwise, he's a decent attempt.

Will go well with Bulkhead who I still sustain looks more like Animated than Prime.

Bee is fine. Might just pick him up.

That leaves Ratchet for a "complete" season 1 Autobot cast.

Will we get a Grimlock? Lockdown? Seeker?

THe Original, for those wanting to compare:

Just a couple new photos of the Legacy UNITED Animated OP:

In one of the designer Instagram posts, it was admitted that Legacy Bulkhead's altmode was instead inspired by AOE Hound, and that the Amazon Wreckers redeco was made to give the figure an even bigger resemblance to Hound. So they just straight up admitted that they chose not to base the new Bulkhead figure directly on either existing Bulkhead.
