Who has had luck finding this toy in stores? While he has been out in the US, there is not enough stock at the moment to answer the demand which has lead to high prices on the secondary market. But is this toy worth it? We have a review below for anyone interested in knowing the most about Studio Series ROTB Optimus Prime from the Buzzworthy line.

chuckdawg1999 wrote:The Rise of the Beast figures released under the Studio Series line have been fantastic. Optimus Prime finally joins their ranks and the figure is great! Transformation is smooth and rather intuitive. My only complaint is that I feel his arm cannon seems a bit small. If you can find the figure at retail it's definitely worth the purchase.

I had one preordered through target and pulse, since they have been less reliable lately with preorders. My pulse one shipped and should be here tomorrow, so i cancelled my Target order which was backordered to August 10 as of my cancellation

I managed to snag mine last Sunday. Got lucky, the target that sucks actually had a lot. The new 3 pack, leader gridlock, prime and low line.

I need help with getting Studio Series ROTB Optimus Prime.
Hello. Lets get straight to the point, I do not live in the US, UK or Europe and i cannot order myself a SS ROTB Optimus Prime which is why I have to ask for help. There is a service in my country that can help me deliver packages from UK or US and if your local Target(or any other store) has him and you can purchase multiple of him, please contact me. I need 3 of him for myself and my friends. I will pay for the 3 figures and shipping. Thanks in advance

You should probably tell people what country you do live in rather than the ones you don't if you want people to commit to helping you.

If you're looking for Tow-Line be sure to check everywhere. It has a tag on the main aisle endcap facing electronics, but for whatever reason they stuck him on the back endcap with the clearance stuff (at full price) at my local Target.

I am still waiting on Target's app to get the listing for Towline and the Scourge's Victims 3-pack. I won't be anywhere near a Target for probably a month now

Well, I got IronProwl on Wednesday, Tow-Line on Thursday, and Prime on Friday. I was hoping the app would put the new 3-pack up for sale, but I'm scared that every Target I go to won't have it. Same goes for Beast Weaponizer Arcee.

I got my corpses and Prime, I'll talk about them more in their main threads. But for these purposes, the corpses are hilarious and I love the fun I am having, and Prime is pretty good.

Meanwhile in Canada, nothing new. Still the same Kingdom/Cyberverse leftovers clogging the shelves on perma-clearance. >:oP

Finally found Ironhide and Prowl last night in Ontario. Keep looking!

I'm glad Pulse restocked Towline, I finally got him. Target really let me down this time

Think I finally got a configuration for Towline that I like. I wanted him to stand different from Scraphook in his modular parts area

The mainline 3 pack of Wheeljack, Nightbird, and Cheetor was finally in stock at Toys R Us Canada.
But of course, the time it took me to put the thing in my basket and fetch my credit card, it was sold out.
FUK YOU, BOTS!

At the moment Towline is relatively easy to locate in my area, if anyone wanting one is willing to do a straight trade for Toxitron G2 Dead End please PM me.

I finally found the Scorponoks at my local TrU so I got 2 sets to troop build some minions for my ROTB Scourge. They are pretty damn awesome, despite the obvious hollows.
