We finally have seen Leader class megatron: http://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=81&size=2&image=46 http://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=81&size=2&image=47 And even leader Bulkhead. I thought this was Leader class Optimus: http://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=81&size=2&image=57 http://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=81&size=2&image=56 http://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=81&size=2&image=55 But it seems it's actually a voyager. So I am wondering if there is any pic of leader class optimus.
It looks like they're holding off on a leader class Prime, the only ones announced are Megatron, Bulkhead, and Ultra Magnus. And really with two deluxe Primes, Voyager Prime, the $50 Prime, and who knows what Legends, FABs, and what-not they're releasing as well... it'd be overkill. Still annoys me that we dont have a full fire truck Optimus yet though...
A trailer is also what I am expecting. Right now, I don't consider all the Primes seen as the "official" (sort of) earth mode Optimus, the one I will put with the other, if you know what I mean (tough I have to admit the voyager one look nice). A leader class for Optimus seems like the obvious thing to come for me.
I have my doubts as to whether we will ever see a full fire truck Optimus. Hasbro has stated that due to plastic costs they don't want to do the trailers anymore. While I can undersand that, personaly I would take a smaller figure at the leader price point if it meant we got a trailer. Animated Prime is supposed to be smaller than Megs anyway.
They're making a full fire truck, but it's a big rig blaster. And I hope We don't get a leader class. So far Every(mainline) animated Optimus has a Megatron Counterpart.(I don't think the $50 one counts) The Battle Pack has an Optimus and a Megatron. Deluxe Class Cybetron Mode Optimus has Voyager Class Cybertron Mode Megatron. and Voyager Class Earth mode Optimus has Leader Class Earth Mode Megatron
I generally dislike trailers anyhow, unless they're used to make additional armor like the Cybertron Prime (or even Armada Prime, as badly executed as THAT was.)
So we have currently: An Battle Bumper Optimus Prime An Activator (Scout) Optimus Prime An Deluxe Cybertron Prime An Voyager Earth Prime The exclusive Deluxe Earth Optimus in the "Battle Begins" box set An Supreme Rollout Optimus Six so far. For a Leader, I think Rollout Optimus is you're best shot. I know I'm getting them all, but not those Battle Bumpers....
I would really don't like to have a leader Prime, the rollout looks awesome enough and the voyager is in scale with the rest of the autobots. Plus having a $40 toy, when you already have the $20 and the $50 ones is not a wise strategy.
Agreed. Unless Prime changes forms drastically at some point, I'm happy with the ones we already know about.
