Transformers Tribute 2007 Leader Class Optimus Prime

Well Seibertron.... we got an odd one for you. It appears that in celebration of the Transformers Movie Franchise's 10th anniversary, we're going to be getting some reissue's of past movie toys. It may even be a sub-line titled "Transformers Tribute" and starting with the 2007 Leader Class Optimus Prime! Thanks to some Facebook and Weibo users we have some images on him in and out of box, and side by side with other Movie Prime alumni. Specifically though, he's not a straight reissue as he has some different paint apps along with a pile of chrome, and is not the resculpted "Premium" release.

What do you think? Is it too soon for '07 Movie nostalgia? Sign in and let us know, and stay tuned to Seibertron.com: home for the best Galleries and Conversation around!

The Orion Pax/WfC Optimus Prime 2-pack is also part of Transformers Tribute. Which makes it hard to properly classify. Is it a Movie line? A Generations-themed line?

Eh, since Generations has encompassed Movie figures before, I'll put it with the generic Generations-themed lot for now, without a sub-line.

With two (3 if you count wfc) different universes in the line the Tribute line is more of a generations line then the current generations line right now ha!

I wonder if Transformers Tribute will replace the Platinum Edition line.

Bro that's a dope image I'm racking my brain thinking of all the figures I bought in the 21 years I been an adult collector and I got nothing it's NOT wfc Megatron maybe you can help me out. It has a Titans Return look to it but you said it's a pre movie Megatron. lol Looks dope tho! ;)

It's a digibash (digital custom) of Titans Return Twintwist, made to look like a "Pre-War" version of Megatron. I don't think it's based on any Megatron design in particular, moreso just an interpretation of the idea of Megatron from before he became a soldier/gladiator/whatever else, I believe.

EDIT: Whoop never mind

So anyone's that knows about this Leader 2007 "tribute" Optimus Prime I absolutely have to get him! I have a boxed loose complete 2007 Leader, a MISB AFA grade worthy of grade-9.0 2007 Premium Leader Prime (Premium L. Megatron too) & I always wanted a MA-01 Prime with the regular head but chrome & sword, this is the closest I can get to that. For anyone that doesn't know me I pretty much collect all Transformers & have been since 1996 at 19yo. I started in 1985 January but my mom put thr kabosh.on that in 1990.when I was at school sold ALL my toys for 16.00 towards my car. I wss pissed. Even at 14 years old when NO ONE collected toys as far as I knew.

Yep, gotcha! Seems like you worked it out (and changed your post accordingly) right as I was writing my reply, actually. ;)^

If I'm honest this line is giving me a movie trilogy vibe, meaning we're probably not going to see these figures at mass retail

Is there anything out there that says this Tribute line/subline won't just be all Optimus Prime related?

I'm looking forward for clear HD pictures of that 2007 Leader Optimus.
Even though the toy is flawed and not movie accurate at all, it's a great toy by itself and well worth owning.

Honestly, any collector who don't own the mold already should consider this release. Merely for the added pizazz of a special edition.

I wish it had the sword instead.

I'm glad this figure's getting a bit more love. It's not really movie-accurate, but it's still great. This is the one that got me back in the game after mistakenly thinking that I was too old for such things. I have definitely changed my tone now.

The robot's pretty cool but the truck is just so solid and heavy. It's awesome.
