Movie Legends Optimus Prime

ALTERNATE MODE

The big (tiny) rig actually looks good with flames on the front and doors, silver accents and painted windshield (pictures don't show it). Working front and rear (1st set) wheels, the very rear ones are actually molded and hide a pivot point. Strangely, it only has one smokestack (on the right). It looks smaller than the Spychanger Prime, but they're actually the exact same size.

TRANSFORMATION

Nothing too fancy here but it's another interesting take. Split the top of the truck and fold down the halves to form the arms. Holding the arms/torso, rotate that whole unit to the back. Now split the front of the truck in two and fold back the halves to form the lower legs. Fold down the arms and you're done.

ROBOT MODE

Articulation is limited but decent : shoulders (ball joints) and hips (ball joints). Torso has painted windows on the chest (nice touch) and some cool sculpting on the chest and legs. Colors are kinda reversed compared to the other movie Primes (blue top, red pants) but I actually like it. Headsculpt is very nice, I wish the bigger Primes had that edgy feel. Overall, a much better toy than LOC Prime imo.















Light was too bright, I'll post other pics later.

I'm surprised that there hasn't been a leader class "Prototype" leak

SPX has one in hand, but he doesn't want to sell it.

I for one love the Legend guys, and the movie line looks like it'll be no exception. ^_^

Now that right there shows up what my problem with the Movie Legends is. The vehicle modes look great, but because all the paint apps are focused round the vehicle modes, the robot modes suffer. I just can't get past how underpainted those robot modes look. (though Megatron is actually quite good)

Wow - they actually look pretty good!
If they put in a little more effort and painted the arms (the inner side) with a little big gray and red, it would've been perfect.
