    So I have PRID Powerizer Prime already. Been wanting FE Prime but aftermarket price was too high. But now that BBTS has them for sale I'm wanting it to replace PRID since it looks better. But after some thought I could get Weaponizer for about the same price and it's bigger than FE Prime. I only want one or the other. So which do you prefer? FE or Weaponizer?

    FE Prime. The Weaponizer doesn't look that great, IMO.

    How is this even a question? FE Prime. Unless you like shellformers with huge backpacks and inaccurate gatling gun weapons.

    watch some vid reviews for the weaponizer if you're not convinced. that thing looks like a disaster compared to FE.

    Oh definitely the FE, though I actually really like Weaponizer Optimus. In fact, as I said in the feedback thread, it's my favorite TFP OP figure after the FE Voyager.

    The FE with absolutely no question at all. The best figure in this line, IMO.

    First Edition. Weaponizer looks like it'd be a whole world of regret.

    Thanks for the replies. Looks like it's overwhelmingly FE. So FE it is. I guess bigger isn't always better.

    I'd go with the FE Prime myself. I chose to pass on the weaponizer version. It just seemed to gimmicky.

    First Edition. He is almost completely screen accurate and scales perfectly with the deluxes.

    In addition to the larger size, I personally like the proportions on the Weaponizer better. He had the best proportions of any Prime Optimus so far, he even got the feet right which many releases have too small. However he does have that gigantor backpack and the exposed arms in vehicle mode, so if you can't stand those then go with the FE.

    I like the size of the Weaponizer but FE all day long. You can even toss your RID Voyager Prime if you ended up buying on earlier. Unless you want to keep him in alt mode forever :lol

    just gonna make a custom nemesis out of my rid one. I still like the rid voyager, but he'll have to serve another purpose once I get my FE.

    rid bulk is gonna be a bit harder to figure out what to do with. maybe an ironhide.
