    Get both man, they are both unique enough to stand apart and be admired for different reasons. Voyager is more movie accurate and the robovision has a g1 color homage. Either version of the voyager has the Cullen homage.

    The leader one is just all kinds of awesome but tends to be more bulky but probably with a more satisfying transformation.

    I'm getting both.

    I can't really afford to get both, so I'm going with the leader version so it'll be in scale with the other autobots.

    Totally going to repaint the grey bits, though.

    Being a Target exclusive and an Optimus Prime, I hope scalpers don't glob onto this. I'm surprising myself by wanting one.

    The Leader Class isn't really all that much in scale, at least I don't think the truck is, he should be an Ultra, not a Leader. The bot mode is quite short and chubby so height wise it's in scale I guess. Leader Prime's Truck mode is bigger than MP Prime's yet his bot mode is quite a bit shorter. That's not really a good thing.

    I doubt they would. Didn't seem like the did with the magnus pack with skywarp. Besides, being at target and having another version down the line, I doubt he will be super rare/worth a ton of money.

    I hope you're right, Shin. But Magnus isn't Prime.

    I'm pretty sure there'll be plenty of these to go around.









    We might not get it full stop.

    Looks shiny and I'm kind of torn on whether I like this or the regular Prime more. This has the red borders of the windows but I like the darker blue on the normal one.

    One quibble, I hope these pictures are of a hastily put together mockup. Unless "heroically posed" means Prime is in a desperate struggle to hold it in.
