I was hoping this G2 Laser Prime mold would be used for Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus, but Hasbro went with Ultra Magnus' Kingdom mold, but oh well, at least we get Magnus' Diaclone colors and a very nice swappable Shattered Glass head!
I'm hoping Toyhax comes out with graphic decals for the trailer that hearken back to the original G2 deco. I've always loved that image of Prime reducing everything in sight to burning waste. OCTANE!
You forgot to flip down the rocket booster panel in the backpack during transformation. And it's neat that the matrix can plug into the ax all sword of primus like. Great review as always, normally I'm not that hyped on toyhax and just like watching you sticker them up to see the change but in this guy's case I might have to buy the inevitable toyhax labels for that trailer and g2 stickers. Might just paint them eyes though don't like how dark they are.
You know. I think the only time I've flipped that down was the very first time I transformed him. I totally forget about it. It's almost an irrelevant step, just a gap filler. Toyhax is gonna make this guy pop.
@@PatriotPrimeReviews it is just a gap filler, hardly matters really but it's a neat lil gap fillers that makes a fat lil backpack into a cool rocket pack lol. I appreciate the thought from the designer honestly. Looking fwd to your toyhax review of him.
Thank you for another great video. I picked this guy up a few days ago, and it is awesome! I do have a bit of paint missing from his faceplate, but I figure that ToyHax will give us something to cover that, and if not, I'll pick up a chrome pen to fix it..
Hasbro has used the wayback machine to bring us Optimus Prime from G2, into Legacy. Like how he looks in both fuel tanker truck and robot with huge shoulder pads mode. But yeah, wish he had the G2 Autobot symbol. With Jhiaxus on the way, hope for more G2 characters in this multiverse Legacy toyline. -Hope for him to be repainted as Black Convoy aka Scourge. And maybe as the cancelled Universe 2003 Toxitron.
Like Volvo Optimus, I got this for my birthday & I'm really happy with him. I like the idea of Optimus having a tanker trailer instead of his usual container.
Amazing review of Legacy Laser Optimus Prime, PPR! Yeah this is a really awesome figure in my opinion. I have two minor issues with the figure, but other than that, he's a really well done, fun figure to mess with. Keep up the great work as always!
"Yeah this is a really awesome figure in my opinion." Until you objectively compare it to the almost 30 year old, 1995 original figure it's supposed to be an update of you mean. Then when it comes to the robot mode, there's very little that's a positive that isn't cancelled out by a negative. Worse still, when it comes to the trailer, it's so completely gutted compared to the original, that it's a pale imitation of it; it's an identical story with the accessories. Hasbro might be able to get away with not bringing their A-game with updates to some figures, or not giving the updates an adequate budget, but when it comes to a figure like this, which was arguably the best figure in the whole of G2 and whose features were a culmination of virtually every single gimmick in the whole of the G2 toy line, failing to do so, means a failure of an update. When you objectively compare G2 Laser Optimus Prime with the Legacy version, a failure is exactly what the later is as an update on the former.
Great review. I dig this bot. I have much the same complaints as you do, and defo looking forward to the inevitable toyhax set, which I am sure we will see here as well. Dig the scourge appearance, and I forgot the TR fig was an homage to this ..shoulda remembered that myself.
Amazing job Patriot, I have this pretty ordered and can't wait for him to arrive. Your review just confirmed to me how awesome this Prime is. Can't wait to see your other Legacy reviews!
Great review!! i cannot wait to see what Toyhax is going to do for him. they are going to have a field day with him. lol Also there is a panel in the back pack that has some what looks like thruster detailing that flips down and fills in that gap under his back pack. there is also a peg at the bottom of the hilt of his sword that is a pain in the butt because if you dont know its there it seems like the sword wont go into his hand. you have to have that peg facing away from his palm so it goes down the gap in the fist. its a cool figure i like him but as i said cannot wait for the Toyhax set.
I just got this guy, he's pretty cool. The faux grille popping off can be an issue, but there's one solution to that, you turn the windscreen section a little bit and then you open the grille a little bit, that will allow you to turn it the rest of the way round without popping the grille off.
Great review man! It’s amazing how much thought was put into Laser Prime’s trailer design as opposed to Earthrise Prime’s trailer. Night and difference IMO.
I think the head is tight on all figures because the ENTIRE head is painted blue and the paint is in the ball socket, still love the figure, my favorite Prime figure. Great review Patriot Prime👍🏼
I'm excited for wave 2 to get them all and the one I least like of wave 2 is tranchulus cause arachnophobia but I do love laser Optimus prime awesome to have
Great video. I’ve got the original G2 version with the chrome trailer and light up sword so I’m kind of on the fence about getting this one. Aah I know I’ll get it when the price drops a little!
Great review as always!!!... Maybe Patriot the legacy logo on the screen might make it smaller? I sometimes felt it should be out of the way!.. like when titans return comparison was theare.. sorry🙃.. We love you🥰
Rid2001 Scourge is rumored for that Walmart Velocitron line. Maybe a Toxitron repaint happens somewhere, like Selects. What I want is an updated of "Laser Ulra Magnus", maybe that will finally include a white version of Magnus Siege/Kingdom rifle. I do enjoy Legacy Laser Optimus though.
Honestly this figure is amazing BUT for me i just can't help it, Im gonna wait for the Black Convey/"RID Scourge" repaint of it that I know is coming soon so that it could be in my collection as the earth mode of the War for Cybertron Trilogy Nemesis Prime, since hell let's be honest RID Scourge was the OG nemesis Prime.
Fantastic review Patriot Prime!!! Laser Optimus Prime is currently my favorite figure of the Legacy line, I can not wait to find a copy to add to my Transformers collection. :D Keep on being amazing.
Hi i just bought this model for my little collection. I'm actually not that happy with this one. His left eye wasn't painted. ALSO his head doesn't seem to curve up or down, It also turns very roughly. I REALLY wanted that Armada prime.. But i ended up getting the Fans lobby MB-17 MEG-TYRANNO and MB-15 NAVAL COMMANDER.
So are the trailers interchangeable? 😁 Great review, I'm so looking forward to getting mine. The original G2 Laser Prime was my favorite Optimus Prime for very long time. I remember finding it at K·B Toys back in the day.
Man, how gullible can people be, that was a great joke video with the fruit loops. Awesome review again PPR, you are awesome. Great figure, I'm happy for anyone who's been waiting for this version, it looks like tons of fun.
I'd love if they gave him an alternate head to make him Powertrain but then I'd want a repaint as Ironworks. I'd love a retool as Octane too. Obviously he wouldn't be a triple changer but that wouldn't bother me.
Having had the original G2 Laser Optimus, I am seriously disappointed by the lack of weapons on this trailer. The original had a disc launcher as well as missiles. But in the end not totally disappointed with this. Would still like to add this to my collection. Yeesss! Scourge would be amazing!!
on my get list. only Legacy fig I preordered was Dragstrip in wave 1. I won't go in to why never had any G2 as said it enough. parental block basically. I expect to see the Black Battle Convoy/Scourge redeco easily on this mold. be stunned if do the correct faction symbol too. the upside down g2 bot symbol. Really great review. I. started laughing about people thinking the fruit loops bit was legit. though being hot with some kinda bug right now got to coughing.
One thing that bothered me with this Prime is it seems like he has light piping for his eyes and they painted over it. If you hold a light up to is it does shine thru some
Nice review! As for my Prime, for the price and QC issues on mine, very disappointed. Head keeps popping off, only “positive” thing about it is I was able to split the head and paint the eyes yellow and gorilla glued it back while attempting to pop it back in place but it just falls off. lol I should be mad but it’s funny at the same time. Smh Hasbro.
Me and my eldest son were constantly looking for this guy, finally got him, and honestly I was underwhelmed. This feels like the low end of a Voyager figure with lots of fiddly, overly fragile Deluxe level engineering. The aesthetics are good. He looks great, I definitely got a real genuine Generation 2 vibe of nostalgia and that was probably the era of Transformers that really meant the most to me as a kid. And speaking of kids, mine loves him. I would like to see Toyhax create some decals for him.
That's because it barely works, the back of my figure's head was painted over. I love light piping and try to point it out as much as possible. I have an extra overhead light to try to accentuate the gimmick when possible during videos.
My mistake, it looked like an old armada prime toy with bulky shoulders. I also thought by g2 you meant the rerelease of the g1 prime with the black trailer but when I looked it up I realized it was generation 2 you were talking about, not g2
@@PatriotPrimeReviews Cool. Our finances are down so I haven't gotten any Transformers in a while. For Christmas and my Birthday in Jan I got a couple, but yeah, just can't do it right now.
Uhm... Waitaminute... So, are the trailers interchangeable...?! Or no...?🤔 Sorry, the information wasn't very clear on that. 😁🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😁 I know, I know... Just couldn't resist THAT invitation, brother!😁
Hmm my prime will remain earthrise hands down, paint this laser one into scourge or nemesis prime. Mind you i also have voyager revenge of the fallen hunt for decepticon prime decision time for custom paint....
While I was never a fan of the G2 insanity, aka crazy neon everything, lol, there ARE a few modern renditions of certain G2 figures that I have picked up as part of my G3 collection, and THIS guy is one of them! I did NOT like the original G2 "Laser Prime"(WTF even?!!🤣🤣🤣 I can't help but ALWAYS see & hear Dr. Evil talking about sharks... With lasers!🤣🤣🤣 anytime that stupid name is mentioned...🙄🙄🙄), and I especially hated that he was ADVERTISING HIMSELF AND MEGATRON, NOT HIDING OR DISGUISING, BUT BLATANTLY ADVERTISING, on the side of the tanker...! (I am hopeful that Toyhax WILL understand the hatred some of us have for the original G2 look, and provide 2 alternate options: 1) BLACK ROCK OIL, as an homage to the Comics, even though it wasn't G2, so at LEAST it looks like he's transporting a product, or 2) just plain silver chrome with optional product overlays (which could also be redone for the inevitable RiD Scourge/Nemesis Prime repaint, but featuring Decepticon sponsors...). Anyway, never liked the original, BUT really liked the RiD Scourge repaint version, as it was far enough removed from G2 not to be a thing. I bought THAT one and still have it, along with a few more modern updates & exclusive versions, including the Titans Return G2 Optimus (both versions),
looks nice & i like the shoulder mounted missile pods but other than that i am COMPLETELY ABSOLUTELY UNDERWHELMED! Let's start with the problems it has 1 the size it is small compared the original gen 2 & the year of the goat. 2 the price $45 & more plus sales tax is high compared to $20 to $25 plus sales tax for the original gen 2 back in 1995. 3 no play features, where''s the fun! this version has only turret gun & a claw arm compared to the gen 2 has light up effects & 5 missile launcher, 5 disc launcher plus a rocket launcher & the turret gun that if you put it in optimus prime's hand it lights up. the sword lights up and the headlights light up. the legacy laser optimus prime is an ABSOLUTE BAD JOKE AT BEST!
Your size comparison’s are god awful. I always have to pause the video because their so quick. Can’t you talk for a second while their standing next to each other?
Wow, you're the first person EVER to complain about the Size Comparisons in almost 5 years of me doing this. I do say "And now for some quick size comparisons." 😉
I apologize about being a little harsh. It’s just something I find myself doing while watching your reviews. Rewinding it then pause it because it goes by so quick. Maybe the patriot prime collective doesn’t feel that way. I failed to mention The scourge comparison was good. Anyway I kinda comment out of frustration yesterday. I do enjoy your videos and your opinion of the figures. Keep up the great work! 👍
Going off the few reviewers I've watched not mention it once, I'm guessing the instructions don't show that his matrix can connect to the axe? Scourge won't be Selects, btw. He's slated for the Wal-Mart Velocitron line. Supposedly under the Black Convoy moniker.
I was hoping this G2 Laser Prime mold would be used for Shattered Glass Ultra Magnus, but Hasbro went with Ultra Magnus' Kingdom mold, but oh well, at least we get Magnus' Diaclone colors and a very nice swappable Shattered Glass head!
Ikr? It woulda made sense too since Hasbro likes using alternate heads for some repaints!
0:01 that laser optimus prime with G1 optimus prime's trailer reminds me the live action bayverse movie version of Optimus Prime
I'm hoping Toyhax comes out with graphic decals for the trailer that hearken back to the original G2 deco. I've always loved that image of Prime reducing everything in sight to burning waste. OCTANE!

Amazing job Patriot, I have this pretty ordered and can't wait for him to arrive. Your review just confirmed to me how awesome this Prime is. Can't wait to see your other Legacy reviews!
I 1000% agree on the packaging point. Turning a car into a robot right out of the box is WAY more fun than turning a robot right out of the box.

It looks like his eyes are translucent blue. Maybe he was supposed to have light piping?
I think so, I really noticed that when rewatching in HD
You keep referring to laser Optimus Prime at G2 originally I thought he was in the machine Wars
Nope, released in 1995.
Machine Wars Prime was completely different.
Probably worth a Google.
This is based off of G2 prime? I though it was based off of one of his armada forms

broly: laser prime's eyes are trans blue plastic so it light pipes
That may have been the intention but there's no translucent plastic on the back of the head for light to pipe through.
Broly:@@PatriotPrimeReviews because they painted the back of the head as to hide it from you unless using the light on the ceiling
oh how he would benefit from chrome paint
In my defense... I thought you had the bowl ready because you were setting up a video on how ridiculous the swappers scammed you.
A joke? What are those? 😱 Yeah, translucent only work when the interior actually looks like an interior of vehicles like the alternators did.
God I really hate those skinny upper arms and the fact that the shoulder pylons are fixed and can’t be positioned like in the artwork 🤦🏻♂️
