    First look at the TF5 The Last Knight toyline? Looks like this could be legit. Reminds me of the leaked Titans Return deco sheets we saw earlier this year.

    If so, this is more accurate than the TF4 Primes(which is to be expected but given how things have gotten cheaper since 2011, still surprising).

    Looks pretty nice, and a much more solid figure overall than AOE Prime.

    Though with Titans Return burning such a hole in my wallet and attracting most of my collecting attention, I can't really say I'll be all that into the TLK line.

    Still looks like partly shellformer (but to be fair, what else can they do?)... Looks like an AoE Voyager Galvatron-type shell on his back. But hey, I ended up liking that Galvatron a lot. And the kibble is way more condensed than the AoE Optimus figures, so that's a huge plus.

    But I wonder what size class this is... Almost looks like a Voyager.

    And yeah, it looks nicer than any of the Hasbro release AoE Optimus figures. Maybe not as nice as Takara's Armor Knight Optimus, but we'll see.

    I can't deny it; I'm already excited for new movie figures. I know some fans hate them, but I love them.

    First they leak Broadside, then they leak the entire fucking TR line, then they leak TF5 Optimus?

    The lack of painted rims convinces me this is legit. :confused: :(

    Awesome!

    Already looks better than the "First Edition" Optimus from the last movie.

    The "knight" aesthetic still looks crap to me and it still results in the bad kind of shellformer toys.

    Good catch! From what I've been reading it's rumored to be a leader class figure. I've been looking at the pins in the shoulders. At first I thought it could be a deluxe. Do you guys think it's voyager or leader class?

    I like how it doesn't have truck panels hanging off of the waist/hips unlike the TF4 leader figure.

    Nice! This is a big step up from aoe. Still going to suffer from a big backpack but that's the price of cgi magic.
    If this is leader class (looks it) then I'm sold.

    I have hope since the backpack in the photo is smaller than I expected it to be. I like the layering going on too in robot mode. Looks like the upper arms and legs will be molded in gunmetal with silver paint to accent some parts. I'll take gunmetal over light grey any day.

    The more I look at it, the pins make me think this is a Voyager. But we'll see.

    Terrific looking truck mode.

    I kind of wish the sword was a little bigger.

    Since this is a sword wielder at the very least I want wrist swivels. Preferably swivels + hinges like on RTS Laser Prime.

    Pretty underpainted, but that's not very surprising. From what we can see, the mold looks alright, but whether I'll buy it will be determined by how tall it is, and how big its backpack is.

    Looks really good. I hope it turns out amazing. I want the second coming of ROTF in terms of the toys and Optimus. I really wanna see Megatron though.
