    It looks...better.

    I'm still looking at this though and seeing a statue. If anything this toy will be a nice display piece that doesn't get transformed that often.

    After seeing some of the new images of Ultimate Prime...I just might consider getting him. At first I was turned off by the gorilla-like arms on the regular robot mode (considering how the wheels don't fold away or anything), but the super mode's growing on me.

    Ack, I can't afford for this toy to be this cool.

    I'm not even sure if it's objectively good, but it's COOL. It interacts with the ENTIRE line, it's humongous, the trailer can be its own robot...this is the kind of neat stuff that we always loudly claim that we want.

    Ultimate Op continues to look great. Still not sure whether or not I'll get him. I'm going to wait to see how big he is compared to RotF Leader Prime. Part of me is really hoping that his bot-mode is closer to Voyager size, as the chances of Leader Megs is getting smaller.

    If someone knows the dimensions of the Human Alliance boxes, it wouldn't be hard to mock-up a size comparison with the help of this picure (I'm assuming the DotM packaging will be the same).

    Or you could just guess his size just by looking at that picture of Michael Bay and Rosie holding this figure! :D 

    And if you really want to compare..at the Japanese premiere, Bay was handed a trophy with a ROFT Leader Prime on it...start up your photoshop engines!

    I'm assuming those 'wings' will be folded up in the box, otherwise he's going to eat a lot of shelf space in stores. :lol

    Hasbro said he's 22 inches tall, and the wings fully deployed puts him over two feet tall, according to the box.

    The truck appears to be Leader-sized or pretty close. Which is good.

    I'd rather not guess, tbh. I'd honestly rather use actual measurements than use guesstimation.

    22 inches to what though. His head? the gold things behind his head? "Over 2 feet" could mean six inches, could mean half an inch, not real specific.

    Been thinking about it, and I'll probably just keep to the Voyager figures for Prime, Megs and Ironhide.

    Armor wings extends over 2 feet. On another site 22 inches tall. I think it means horizontal it is over two feet . Robot feet to the very top of the wings is 22 inches. Cab size,still waiting.

    I tried it ,IMO the stand alone is leader size. I also did some other comparison before. But when I try to compare truck mode , U Primes seems smaller. Could it be just the vehicle mode is smaller, or the trailer is messing it up? Don't know.

    That actually wouldn't surprise me. The Leader Bumblebee is car mode is about the same size as the new voyager Prime. It seems like the engineers have gotten really good at getting tall figures into smaller vehicles.

    It's definitely Leader-class size. Not the Voyager-class size as mentioned before. Unless Michael Bay's hands are smaller than a normal adult. :lol 
    Plus it has Optimus Prime phrases. How can a Voyager-class toy have electronics & sound features?
