Only thing I don't like about this Prime is the chest.
Super easy buy for me.

 

Have mercy! That IDW Optimus Prime is so bought!

 

I just hope they stop with the exclusive retailer bullshit. Had Aurora and Hardbone pre-ordered at TF Source, it was automatically cancelled. Then I went to BBTS and pre-ordered them just to find out TF Source was offering them again, so I cancelled my pre-order at BBTS and paid for pre-orders at TF Source. I'm still waiting for them.

Chase looks great, but I'm a bit sad that the "car front feet" is gone.

Optimus - pass.

Brainstorm - YES. I was hoping for a full set of TW Headmasters. Just wished they were a bit smaller.

 

oh man, tough call between fp and the tw headmasters... I'm buying both sets until i decide what to do. i love the head on this brainstorm...

the throttlebots are all bought for sure.

the optimus prime is a pass though. I've got enough good optimus primes.

 

How big is Optimus supposed to be? Voyager size? I'd totally buy the Optimus if that's the case.

 

okay okay okay...I need that Optimus pretty bad...

 

They've got a real hard on for suvs. Prime looks great, if Hasbro have one planned they'd better announce it soon. Not Brainstorm looks cool, much more appetising then the fp one. Just got their hardhead and I really dig it so I'm down for more from them.

 

Considered it til i considered the blow to my wallet lol. pus, i like the compatability of putting the headmaster in the vehicle. May not work with a headswap.

 

Looks like the truck is sitting a little low, otherwise they all are looking good.

 

I have to say, I'm preferring ToyWorld's Headmasters more than what I've seen of the FP versions. I like the chunky retro aesthetic and greater degree of accuracy. On the other hand, they're still a bit pricey and I'm not sure if I need Headmasters THAT badly.

Personally, I think TW is wasting time here... they SHOULD be busy repainting/remolding Hardbone into Megatron. That would be a license to print money!  

Optimus looks really good, but I think he would have looked better several years ago, before Faith Leader and MP10. Still, since his main competition at this scale is Classics Ops, I think he's still a winner.

Chase... meh. The toy actually looks really good, but as far as feeling like a Throttlebot, he's too far off for me. I really would prefer they kept the traditional transformation mechanic and style. They all look like great robot toys, but I feel much less inclined toward the team now...

everyone go wiki chase and freeway if you have to, compare heads, then come back here and tell me this is chase and not be lying.
THAT IS FREEWAY!!!

 

wow, that optimus is fantastic ,
beats Hasbro 30th anniversary prime's out of the water

 

lucas maximus beat me to it, but you can tell it's Freeway by the straight across visor and the weird mouth.

 

Chase has a faceplate and Freeway has a mouth. If you have to go by the head this is 100% Freeway. It is definitely not Wideload or Goldbug and Rollbar and Searchlight are already out.

 

Oh Hasbro. You missed the boat again.

Guess who is getting my money?

Please do a new voyager-scale seeker mold before someone else does....

 

ah, yes!! i'm not the only one now! thank you!!!! 

 

This. Plus I still kinda dig G1 headmasters. They have nostalgia and their molds (besides not being posable) are pretty good for the characters.

 

I agree but I'm sure there will be some kind of crazy internet arguments until a picture of a colored prototype is released.

 

Can anyone digibash the Brainstorm or Throttlebot molds?
