And yes, there are two peg holes in truck mode that allow the gun and sword to peg on, but they just sit on the back of the truck like on the deluxe.

Thanks for answering man. Is he as fun to handle as Classics Prime?

I like his robot mode a lot, and he's fun to pose. The transformation, as I mentioned, is almost identical to the deluxe and the vehicle mode is kind of plain and blah. But if you only get one prime, definitely get this one over the deluxe.

I hate it when they made the sword totally rubber whereby the gun is of plastic just because of safety measures,ridiculous

The sword disappointed me, but he's still an awesome toy. Glad i picked it up.

Heres hoping some group makes hard plastic stacks and swords to replace the normal ones with.

Not really. I get why it's done. That sword in hard plastic could be pretty painful the way he holds it.

I just wish the hilt wasn't soft plastic. Maybe if the blue blade was soft and the rest was hard it'd be safe.

This one is what I've been looking for in Prime OP. He takes everything I liked about the deluxe mold, makes it bigger with better proportions, and has better sculpting. His sword will be stored away though, I think it looks kind of silly.

Frankly I don't like either of his weapons. The guns and swords of TF Prime are so generic. They all make the same noise, serve the same purpose, and look the same. None of them evoke the character of their weilders. Though at least they coloured his gun black to make it a little different.

Can his knees bend back more than 90 degrees? The sculpt looks awesome. I want the deluxe also because they are different sculpts, and I like having different molds of the same character.

It's kinda funny. The bot mode looks so nice. The chest even has the truck side mirrors...

Yet the truck mode doesnt even have side mirrors... Ha!

Nice work Hasbro!
