This Is The BEST Optimus Prime I Own! | #Transformers Prime First Edition Optimus Prime
Transformers prime Optimus prime is one of the best Optimus designs and I'd rank it 3rd best Optimus design
What are the other 2

@@therailfanman2078 I like your taste.
I'd say BumbleBee movie Optimus Prime takes #1 spot since he's basically a mixture of Michael Bay and G1
@@12oz-MAN I've never liked the bumblebee movie designs
I adore this figure so much, enough to make a stop motion. It is weird seeing a black Optimus repaint that's still Optimus (not like Nemesis or Scourge).
Dead Optimus Prime is another one that has a black color scheme although I think the only one we've gotten was a recolor of the Transformers Earth rise Optimus Prime figure
@@12oz-MAN There being a transformer of a corpse is very strange.
My favorite detail in this guy is the cab interior, if you look inside where the truck cab is there's a small radio, steering wheel and a glove box! And underneath his head plate you can see the seats so it's almost the full interior! It's something small but it's amazing nonetheless
Yo bumblebee
Head plate? What's that?! Please reply to me!

Best quality voyager figure of all time. Showed what hasbro can do when they dont try ro cut back for more profit. Amazing.
The red/blue one is way better. He really is.
Also , if you turn the hand 90 degrees and insert the sword or gun. It looks like it dows in the show instead of him holding them weirdly
I'm sure that's the way they intended for the figure to hold the weapons. The slants on the back of the weapons line up perfectly with the angle on the outside of the forearm.
It's worthy enough to be considered Leader or even Commander class in the current line.
The APC is very similar to First Edition Prime you have, from what I've seen.
The only differences is you get two heads (one with mouth guard and one without) dual blasters and dual battle blades, plus Skybreaker (however Red Optimus has black coloured blasters)
And the quality is better. No soft smokestacks, no floppy legs, no easily unpegged shoulders and shin.
I had this one for a while. It's an awesome figure. The deco is so nice and the transformation is superb, with the figure looking great in both modes. The first edition figures for TFP were so good. And you're right that the sword is the only thing that sucks.
The Prime toys didnt exactly have spectacular availability here in Australia anyway TBH, I dont think the first edition ones were released here at all? I certainly never saw them, anyway
I got the Japanese colored APC one cause I liked that it came with the star saber and a pair of swords and a pair of guns for a decent price. It’s hands down one of my favorite transformers that I ever owned. Just everything about it is great. I wish I could get this version cause it looks pretty amazing, but I don’t have 90 dollars to shell out on one voyager. Great review as always
First edition optimus and ROTF leader and voyager optimus were like the first figures I remember that showed that hasbro could make extremely accurate figures if they wanted to
Omg I was getting some chills just seeing the shots with the Optimus figure and megatron figure in the poses when they were working together
Was SUPER lucky to nab this one back in the day for about $60 ish, and it's still a prized trophy of mine.
Dang it, stop making me want it again haha
I grew up with G1 and prime, having almost the entire autobot cast, and the RID Version of TFP Optimus was the one I had, absolutely love it for sentimental reasons, but I’ve seen first edition ones go for $200+ CAD and it makes me cry 😭 such a much more beautiful portrayal of my favourite Optimus Prime Design. One Day.. I’ll have it
From what I read, these colors on Prime Optimus Prime is supposed to represent Prime utilizing armor that protects him from cyberbiohazards... whatever a cyberbiohazard is.
The plague that blinded him and almost killed him
I own the APC toys one and LOVE it, comes with so many weapons!!
I have this mold for Prime and Ultra Magnus, and I absolutely love those two. Very good figure, and very good review, I wish there were more 3rd party add-ons for these figures.
I think the reason I like this channel more than other action figure channels is just how positive you are about most figures
After G1 i think this is the best Prime design. I recommend picking up the APC figure since it's upscaled, two heads and two blasters and swords (though the swords are still on the wrong side)
I love the toys that I mean… you can see their truck kibble and that, but their sleek and so much transformed that they’ve changed shape completely and you can hardly tell their the same thing after transformation
Not like G1 designs where it is more obviously a vehicle that just had it’s back end flip down and twist around and split to form legs.
i wish that someone made a masterpiece version of this it would be such a gold mine
I remember seeing your video about PotP Optimus and when I saw one I knew I had to pick it up. I think the same thing might happen with this guy, he looks sooooo goood
I think this model has the best transformation of all time. It's so elegant and clever.
Picked this guy up as just a personal figure i wanted. My favorite show and my favorite prime to watch it with me
The best Prime I own as well...the black and old gold is the icing on the cake
Port the gun through the bottom of Prime’s hand and it’ll fit seamlessly in that sideways/show accurate orientation
My guy you are a legend thank you for the content 🙏
That Dark of the moon model with the stars on it, i had that EXACT same one when i was a kid, got dam i miss that transformer so baaaad.
6:20 yeah the APC toys one(s) aint exactly available for cheap either...
Long ago I cut away part of the plastic at the ankle huge to give better ankle articulation so it would not pop the leg off. When you open up the leg panel and look at the screw you’ll see a thicker portion towards the inside of the leg. You don’t have to do it if you don’t like modifying your toys and that’s OK but for me it made a huge difference.
Damn man I had a very similar experience with Prime. It was the first transformers series (besides animated) that I grew up with as it naturally progressed, and I remember checking my target for new releases after new episodes, watching reviews of figures so I would know which ones I wanted and I had sooo many almost every NA rid release just because i was around the age to do that with this show I wish I could’ve got more first edition only ever got terror-con cliff jumper
i have the original first edition optimus prime, i bought it at universal studios singapore, and i'm so glad i had this figure because it has been my definitive modern optimus prime (better than bayverse if imo), but things have broken off, like the headlights on his faux chest and i lost both smokestacks, also i was stupid to scratch his eye back then cuz i have this figure for 9 years.
I’ve just picked up the apc toys version and I absolutely love it. TFP is my favourite version of prime so very happy to have him
Hands down my best prime and possibly best official figure, APS-01u. It’s the rotf leader mold and kind of an amalgamation of every version, its got the jetwing with different colours, bright colours from the striker variant, some darker tones from the da-28 version, all of the accessories like knuckles guns swords and hooks. It’s a pretty dope package that even came with a little die cast allspark cube
Just thought I'd mention that you can actually do show accurate guns with this gun, rotate the hands inwards by 90 degrees and peg the guns into the underside of the hands, I think they intended it as the cannons perfectly line up against the forarms
That mold is sick, i like that
2:28 is that an upscaled Cyberverse Prime Megatron? Never thought that was a thing. Cyberverse Prime Megatron was the most accurate out of all official toy renditions, and if it weren't for APC Dark Master, this upscaled knock-off would probably be the next best thing.
To be fair, Transformers Prime's designs were based on the movies. So the resemblance is not a big coincidence.
I remember when i had the original one (the original red and blue transformers prime optimus) and it was by far one of my favourite transformer toys
man i really wish hasbro would do more reissues for prime toys, especially with how theyre handling legacy. its my favourite tf media and i wasnt able to afford barely any of the figures back then besides cyberverse, and now theyre so damn expensive. at this point i dont even want them to redo the figures with modern technology, these first editions still hold up and id gladly take them! if we can get reissues for g1 and beast wars figures, i say we should do that same thing with other continuities like prime, animated and maybe unicron trilogy.
Still have my optimus prime first edition from back 2013, it got loose over time and the pipes got kinda filthy, but still is a beautiful toy to look at
Your videos are always amazing
i've had 2 experiences with the apc version of this figure one is the 1-1 paint (where its got the same paint and look as the original toy) and the second is cartoon accurate paint(where its made to look like it just jumped out of the cartoon) and both are amazing they did an amazing job with it just wish they sneakily included some silver lifted faction repro labels
dang u got the chrome apc figure, ur lucky
www i love tfp its such a good toy and to see a great figure like that for tfp thats making me happy
He does hold the gun sideways in the show I can remember it was my favorite show
I bought the APC version in the darker red Takara colors a few months ago. Had been wanting the First Edition version for years.
I hope someday we get another black and gold Optimus Prime
I used to have the original bulkhead, shockwave, beast hunters optimus, and knock out from the prime toy line
Bro that intro go hard 🔥
Side note, I noticed you were mentioning the show accuracy way of holding the gun. You can turn his hand inwards, then slide the gun in from the other side (the bottom of his hand) to give him his show accurate way of holding his gun!
You can in fact turn his hands facing up or down (I believe down is better) and insert the handle to the outside of the hand. It'll fit like a puzzle piece.
I own the apc Optimus and it absolutely is the same as the official Optimus. As far as I know it even fixed the slight bow leggedness
I just got this mold and I love it
4:13 he could, just rotate the hand to where the fingers are facing down and then plug the gun in the hands on the hood of the truck and bam, it looks great
Holy shit, you used to live in Australia?! *HELL* yeah, _AUSSIE BOYYYYYYYYSSSSSS--_
With the exception of the vheicon the first edition prime figures are just glorious.
bought the apc toys one, pretty pumped for it
DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST I OWN, and I have pretty much all of the good ones
The changes between the apc (1.0 not 2.0 aka the metalic version) are that he's the original deco, comes with 2 guns and 2 swords (that are NOT made out of rubber) instead of one each, he comes with the starsaber (with the thing to atatch it on his back) and an unmasked head so that's it...
I'm sure you've seen comments like this but if you rotate the hand 90 degrees you can have him hold his guns show accurate. It pegs backhandedly pretty much.
bested engineered transformers line of all time IMO
snagged this one at big bad toy store a while ago best choice i made
easy to miss out but he has an interior, the wheel, radio etc are in here in the truck mode
I have the Tokyo toy show clear color version of this prime. One of my favorite pieces in my collection
A place local to me has both that one and the Dark Guard decos. I'm really tempted by the clear colors because they look amazing, but I'm hesitant because of clear plastic's reputation.
Put the gun and sword underslung and swivel it to the side. One of the most satisfying discovery i made with a toy
Yup I have the first edition voyager prime and he is great
Fe bulkhead is fantastic to
Gosh dang it you might have convinced me to buy one off ebay 😂 anyways great video good sir
Studio series prime is actually a heavy retool of this guy!
It's not. It reuses engineering but isn't a retool.
I was browsing around the internet to find a transformer figure, and I found this: a live action (evasion mode), called "Ayoi Mech H6003-6 Energy Heart" it looks cool
I have this mold, but I played with it so much I wore out the hip joints, so it just kinda sits there now
Nice review on this guy, I got the Takara Tomy Arms Micron OP version of this Mold. For only 18 USD here in Manila. 2nd hand tho.
I have the first APC release, it’s very, very nice, but I understand if you want to stick to the official releases haha
OOH EDIT: You can actually turn the hands *inwards* to have him hold the guns outwards, like in the show. That’s how I’ve always done it.
I own both an official Hasbro and a apc version of this mold the apc j p has replaced all rubber with harder plastics making the smokestacks and swords better, the apc also tried switching up some of the locking elemne tee s with middling results such as trying to change the roof foot connection in vehicle mode. If anyone is looking for this mold I'd say the apc works excellently sss an alternative with great plastic, joint tolerances and even better accessories than the original so pick you favourite deco and get one of these great figures official or apc
I find it kinda funny that there's two completely unrelated Optimus Primes with a black and gold colour scheme
You can have the gun placed properly if you rotate the hand so that you plug the gun into the back of the hand
I will say tfp was my show back then and it still is has just got the DVDs for it but just like you I was never able to get most of the toys I had gotten a s3 camo prime with shoulder gun gimmick but one day I do want to make my own collection of prime toys.
APC Megatron, is elite bro, and you should get the APC Prime because they are just good, I own a FE Prime and i enjoy too much to fiddle with it which is why I got the APC
I side with you that it feels like a cartoon live action prime
This makes me wish I'd gotten the APC Toys Nemesis deco.
i got this one last summer cant say im not impressed
For the gun just twist the top of the hand inward and peg the gun at the back of the hand and there u go
finally, a true rival to shreddicus maximus…
I ordered apc nemesis after watched this!
Hey, 07 Legion Barricade can pooth.
I have it and it’s the best figure in my whole collection
i will be going to get a version of this mold hopefully, well if I can fork up a budget of 100$ that is
bought the APC 4th party Prime and it's just as good if not even better
Nice video
Where in Frick can I find this guy to?
I wouldn't even think that's a transformer if I seen it in truck mode on a shelf
I agreee
This figure was doing ankle tilts before it was cool.
The best design of Optimus for me was the RotF prime leader class. It just clicks for some reason. Second was the TLK challenger prime which is a third party one becuase it's movie accurate.
If it works if you can twist the rest inward and plug the gun into the bottom of the hand if you couldn't understand that
If I get this prime (I may not) i would grey paint gold spots,dark tint, yellow dot eyes as a MECH nemesis prime
Nice
I have this one in its original colours!
The apc one is the same just with more exceries
3:38 omg is that megatron a scaled up version of that one core class toy???
Legion/cyberverse*
@ same size class different name, plus idc about that anyway anymore I’m after the apc toys voyager upscale
all i got is 2 optimus primes
I have both this black repaint and the APC figure, and you're wrong about there being no difference. The OG version is great but the smokestacks are soft, falls out easily, and warps out of shape easily. The shoulders and shins on the OG figure are loose and unpegs easily. The legs flop back and forth easily and becomes hard to stand because the figure is top heavy.
THE APC FIGURE FIXES EVERYTHING ABOVE! I don't have to worry about the smokestacks and floppy legs. The only thing OG does better is that it has the Autobot symbols and the APC doesn't.
Oh and the weapons are not soft for the APC version.
