Wait so I haven't been keeping up, people are sure the grey hands are final and not just because of the painted proto? They were blue in the renders.

 

Per John warden, grey hands are final due to issues with the mold layout

renders are not final, look at siege barricade compared to his renders

 

I see, kind of a bummer then, oh well. Might just keep my Siege OP or pick this one on discount.

 

Finally, an accurate looking Optimus Prime we've all been waiting to get our hands on and not the siege one, the truck mode just looks... awful, but this prime is the one we've been waiting for a very long time that looks accurate and comes with a trailer and a opening chest with a removal matrix! Not a big fan of the yellow eyes he has though but when i do get him i'm going to swap his head out with siege's head instead because it has the blue eyes. He's definitely the Optimus Prime i'm getting for my classics collection!

To this day, I cannot rationalise how exactly all the reviewers were fine with CW Prime. The upper torso is just... disgusting. Not even Motormaster looked right, it’s too... w i d e .

 

He really does look like some kind of elaborate Playskool figure, doesn't he?

But they had a gimmick to enforce so... meh. Thank Primus we're over that and the gimmicks aren’t as intrusive now.

 

You put the Siege Voyager figure and PotP figure in the wrong spots.  

 

I didn't mind it for Motormaster as much because he's a brute, but for Prime I liked the white and gray version with the gold trim. Proportions just looked better in white plastic.

 

Soundbarrier is sold out every where ? Should I be worried ? only place I can find him instock is ebay which is charging like 4 times as much as he is sold in stores

 

Probably should be. Are you in the US?

 

ah thats too bad, oh well

Im in Japan right now and will be for a while, it was available for a very short time as a takara tomy mall exclusive but I missed that too

 

What? No, don’t be worried at all. RAMP will be everywhere and probably pegwarming in a few months. They’re not going to limit the manufacture of those connecting pieces.

 

hope your right, I really like how they look with Skylinx and would like to get a few for my boy

 

Oh sorry, I was asking if he was in the US because if he’s anywhere else, he’s screwed. the only places to get them in the Uk and elsewhere are online retailers, and if they’re out of stock, it’s gone.

 

Ah yeah, fair enough. Although I’m sure you’ll find some folk prepared to go to Target and pick up a few to ship once they’re widely available in a couple of months.

 

Saw this at a Walmart in Shelby Township, MI:
