    Given that Dutch is just about the same size as Hybrid Prime (10.6cm vs 10.5cm), maybe these pics will tide you over for a bit.

    A few(i guess all) of the big reveiwers arn't really legends collectors although Ben seems to be getting there, they don't cover that stuff - some of the things legends collectors would want to know. He does confess in the video he doesn't know how he will end up in terms of scale saying wait and see. We do know he scales with dx9 stuff...

    Anyway, i think he looks brilliant.

    Isn’t this enough of a comparison to get a pretty exact idea of the size?

    Or do you guys mean comparisons with other Optimus toys?

    that'll be fine after all Prime has a bit before he makes his mark so in that time I'm gonna try and hunt down a DX9 Megatron or buy Metroplex

    Maybe Scourgatron missed that part of the review. Or maybe he means something different by the word 'comparison' than the rest of us? :lol

    I'm not really to fond of the sunbow chart but it's probably just me because I don't like Galavtron being shorter than Optimus or Cyclonus being shorter than Magnus

    At least that video did give me a sense in how well he goes with Galvatron if he's standing next to DX9's Soundwave

    I have the plain one and I think it matches their aesthetic more, but that's just me.

    Prime and Soundwave look ok together but Megatron is too tall now. He was always too tall but I figured Prime would be closeer to him than Soundwave. I don't plan on transforming DX9 Megs so I may cut him down in the legs. Dammit DX9.

    Yeah, one of the couple things keeping him from being my Prime.

    You might be able to easily get them closer in height by removing Megatron's feet. I haven't transformed mine in forever, but I don't think they're crucial to gun mode. Then you could just put new toes on him instead, which would give him more of his G1 toon foot:

    Yeah, but I wouldn't hold that against them. And I'm sure it won't be too difficult to correct it with a can of... oh, you meant that as a good thing, didn't you? ;)
