    It's interesting I like it.... I'm hoping the blades would still be in his arms.

    Wearing sharp gothic black was so 2009. In 2011, angelic silver is the new look and lucky for me i had another friend, Sentinel who was silver.. :ev:

    Are the people defending this thing just really hard up for movie primes ( u know, movie prime fanboys) ? Or just REALLY delusional? I never thought I would go into this thread with people trying to justify this figure. It's one thing to like transformers, but u have to admit when something is horrible. (like the MP rodimus debacle) .

    Well, Lets atleast hope the trailer can attach to ROTF Prime. If it does, then I suppose you've got a $70.00 brick that can attach to the back of Leader prime, and nothing more. MEH. Do you hear me? M-E-H!!!

    Hmm, were they going for a Gundam Seed Freedom Gundam or Strike Freedom look with the expanding wings?

    And are those supposed to be horns? Definitely underwhelmed.

    Upon re-examining the trailer, and the new comments updated, its definitely not going to be motorized for sure. There is just no room for a motor or gearing it seems. Sigh~ I hope this isn't how it will look in the movie. Takara Tomy, just make the ROTF Leader Class Optimus Prime with the new "Aile Strike Gundam" jet pack and new gun weapons. Thats all we hope we need to justify the DOTM line.

    So far I'm not impressed. The smaller voyager scale is just ruining it for me.

    If they were smart, they'd release a trailer add-on for RotF Leader Prime that turned into battle armor in a similar fashion as Jetfire. But they could probably make it work even better than JF, b/c it wouldn't necessarily have to be one honking piece stuck on the back of Prime. They could split it up.

    Where are his giant jet thrusters? the big ass guns he was dual-wielding? His sword?

    This isn't just a step back, this is evolving back into a fucking fish.

    All the good combined modes for previous Optimus Primes we've gotten, this looks only a bit better than the crap Armada Prime transformed into, and I actually owned that brick.

    Damn hasbro decided to bitch out on this, same as Jetprime. I'll be skipping this for sure.

    Possibility of something epic..... Nah lets just make it as simple as possible and charge $80 for it.

    Thanks but no thanks. So glad nothing from this movie excites me in the slightest.
    Saves the wallet from futher damage.

    Would it have been so hard to achieve this? In the movie aesthetic?

    im going to point this out as i did on other sites. I dont think there is any combining with this toy. The Prime you see with the large front fender hands is really the cab of the toy and the trailer is the second Prime with Prime INSIDE the trailer. You dont combine the cab prime with the trailer as two different pieces... they are two toys. You can have Cab/truck Prime as a stand alone or you transforme the trailer and Prime is inside it as filler and is attached already to the shell.

    I hope the guys at FansProject are watching this thread. All the money I save on DOTM will go directly to them if they make me a trailer armor to go with my ROTF Prime.
