Weaponizer Optimus Prime - Wallas Toy Reviews - Transformers Prime

Wallas · 05-19-2012, 01:10 AM

Courtesy of Polish division of Hasbro, I present you the newest addition to my Transformers collection, the Weaponizer Optimus Prime. Hope you like it.

Available in 720p HD.

Personally, this toy's redeeming qualities are very subject to what you like in your toys. Front views of both vehicle and robot modes look astonishing on the shelf and the weapon gimmick is neat too, but some might be turned off by the back (back pack and hollowed out lower legs). I know that as a person keeping my toys on the shelf most of the time I will be keeping mine because it serves the frontal display purposes more than well.

Wow, that's pretty early a review! It's rather late so I just managed to catch a bit of it, but really lovely footage and very detailed. I loved that view of the back, at least I know the arms aren't that conspicuous now, at least not as much as I feared. Thanks for this early look!

A very thorough review. Just too simplified for me.

Very very nice! Many thanks for sharing this with us!

Awesome and very thorough review. But the magical backpack world of gimmick on this thing kills it for me. Might just get it to go with my other Primes/Convoys. Do better, Hasbro.

im not realy bothered by all his faults and the thing that bothers me the most is the light blue that they used on the head and legs. I like his size, i like the detail, theres a better paint apps on him. the weapon gimmic is pretty neat too. also i see a ultra magnus repaint in weaponizer primes future

i HIGHLY doubt it.

there is so much ridiculous kibble.. it's ridiculous.

absolutely no thank you.. the only way this thing would come home with me is if someone broke into my car and put it in there.

Neat gimmick, but 'Damn' them legs are lazy. Especially in truck mode.
It's like they just gave up.

I really appreciate the review!

The figure itself has its ups and downs, but when comparing with other more kid friendly, larger bots, I think this one has a good balance. His legs being hallow is probably the worst part, but at least they maintain good posability, and the gimmick looks actually pretty good. I'm ok with the backpack.

Not necessarily as good as FE Prime, but if this really turns out to be $29.99, I think he will be worth the money.
