    Looks like a robot sitting down. Even more so than Cybertron Metroplex. Not digging it.

    Ok, with it being a mech Suit he pilots that is kind of cool. Reminds me of the giant Krang toy from the old old playmates TMNT line.

    Will I buy it, doubtful. I still haven't gotten any Prime Figures.

    Great design hampered immensely by hollow limbs and limited articulation.

    Hadn't seen the clearer pictures of Optimus driving him from the chest until just now. That and the lower than expected price tag are making this guy really hard to pass up.

    Interesting idea, but the completely awful base mode kills it. Not thank you ma'am.

    Has there ever been a city bot that doesn't just spred his legs and flip them open to form the city?

    This Prime is no different than any other city bot we have gotten.

    Anyone else feeling this would have been more suitable for the movie cyberverse?

    Erecting an unstoppable death station in the visage of the vengeful god king, Optimus, seems more like something the psychopathic movie bots would do.
