    So.... Shittimus is about the size of a Ultra, and the Butterfly suit is a little under 2 feet in height, interesting, but don't like it.

    I'll say this, DOTM Butterfly Prime surely put ROTF Supreme Crapastator too shame.

    I don't have much experience with Ultra class, but I'd say so, at least in terms of the truck/single robot size. That's assuming my estimates are correct and I could be wrong. I don't think I am but it's possible.

    Really? But you were so positive about it earlier in the sentence. :p

    The sarcasm is strong with this one.

    Seriously, most of my hatred is biased due to ROTF Ldr. Optimus Prime, but whatever. I will say he is pretty nice looking, but if OP was more accurate looking, (wheels on his legs, wasn't a twig, lower arms didn't look too much like the truck's nose), I could ignore the "Butterfly suit's" flaws, and besides, it's not like there aren't other figures in the DOTM toyline to buy :D

    ...is this really necessary? I mean, we'll have good shots of the thing soon enough to settle this debate.

    The Mech Tech integration and proportions(if "fixed", and not what we saw of it sans armor at Toy Fair) will make/break this thing for me. Seeing the trailer hyped as being some huge ass Mech Tech port without seeing the mech tech weapons on it is like a cake without icing.

    Strange how absolutely no one got their hands on Ultimate Prime yet. Even Sentinel was leaked early, but the only glimpses we get of Ultimus are the official reveals.

    Got mine a few weeks ago... If you have the popeye arms positioned a certain way, they really don't look too terrible... The transformation for trailer & truck are pretty fun & involved as well... Is he as accurate as ROTF leader prime? No, not by a stretch... But was he worth every bit of the $75 I spent on him at Walmart? Yes, he was indeed worth it. In powered up mode, he makes for a great display piece, I have him behind my MP Rodimus & they both compliment each other very well... The lack of leg articulation is a downer, but he has a mean power stance! And overall in hand looks great in vehicle mode, also pleased with the Prime by himself... He's definitely worthy of his own space... As I keep leader Sentinel & leader ROTF Optimus in another area beside each other... It's a great figure IMO, pics make it look far worse than what it really is...

    His head is FAR too small, I see it in person today, i was not impressed.
