Finished watching it. I'm actually one of the few people who love this Optimus Prime mold. I am a fan of how they integrated the trailer into the robot mode, leaving no excess part that will be lying in the shelf/box when Optimus is in robot mode. I'm actually impressed with BMB's take on the trailer transformation, making the whole trailer kibble work on the legs and remove it from the arms. I quite like that. Also the larger truck is a big bonus. Honestly having seen the review, I'm really interested in getting one to play the figure in person. My only wish is that BMB consider making an OS Combiner Wars Megatron to scale nicely with this figure, as they would totally be a great addition to my shelf. Sidenote: At 11:20 you actually mistransformed Orion Pax's head for the trailer mode. You need to turn the head around 180, and it should expose a peg hole for the trailer truck to fit in nicely. :) Anyway, thank you for the review and have a good one! :)
Just picked him up. The bot modes... Both of them... Are glorious! He is huge! And he really looks the part. He's standing in for me until I get MPP10. I love him! Two complaints; obviously the hands, but someone will release replacement ones (or maybe you could do a video about the ones you mentioned?) and his alt mode. Hate the alt mode, but I'm not displaying him in alt mode, so whatever.
Want it! I'm just going to display him as a standalone prime in between my riff raff transformers. I don't anything that he will look good with, but I must have him.
I don't mind the silver on the original or the truck trailer kibble on the arms. The black hands is a bit jarring though. I'm hoping they fix that on the actual release.
hopeful someone makes upgrades for this figure. it is beautiful. I love the Orion. He is going on my shelf. But, the OP looks damn good too. Hope that some company makes an upgrade like the did for the POTP figure. Maybe something to fix the shins too, and blue hands. Still an amazing figure
1. All blue Matrix? Possible tease of an oversized Optimal Optimus KO??? 2. Orion Pax's thighs...WHODAAAT!? They did admirably filling in Optimus's thighs, but Orion's are still a hollow mess... 3. The revamped transformation of the trailer is brilliant...why didn't Hasbro's engineers have that kinda sense!?
I hadn't realised this was oversized too. Having all the trailer pieces off the arms is great, the trailer and truck aren't perfect but I'm definitely interested now even just for Orion Pax that big. Official would cost me £40, I can get this now for £47, so much bigger, better colours, very tempting
I really appreciate the improvements these companies do, but they make them waaaay to big for my taste, mainly due to budget and space concerns, if they made them the same size or just a tad bigger it'd be perfect.
@@ssjMaximum22Goku look at Weijiang, they up the game with each bot that they launch, but the prices remain a steal! And they are all competitive with each other, that will secure the prices for us.
im so torn on this figure. it looks so good and is as close to a MP as Hasbro is going to put out without an anniversary, but also I don't like the trailer panelling (as in, I wish they could make it blend more) and the large backpack made by the legs. Not an issue if displaying from the front but it still bugs me a bit. This KO is better and also you can do the sticker application yourself. My autobot stickers are slightly off kilter in my POTP version
This version is superior to the official. More tabs keeping things together, for one. But his truck form is just ugly. You have Orion's head turned the wrong way for truck mode. If you turn it 180 degrees, the trailer hitch is exposed. You can see it properly on the official version later in the video. It's an inelegant truck form to say the least, but the Pax robot form is _stunning_, and the full Optimus robot has a fantastic amount of detail. I love that the trailer kibble is removed from his arms in this version.
for that price i could buy a few trassformers, and mp-01 as well as an mpp-10 for his price, or a toyworld constructor and something that's a little less than 100. he is just expensive
On one hand, you have almost an entire year to save up for MP-44, on the other hand, for that same price, you could buy Magic Square MS-01 Op, Transform Element TE-01 Op, and "almost" a full MP-10 Optimus with his trailer, or at least, an MPM-04 Optimus and have a bunch of change leftover. You'd also have the benefit of not owning an Optimus strapped into a diaper and a bulky backpack.
Great video, but terrible bot. Looks cheap, gappy as hell, and sounds hollow every time you move it. Also, anytime I see the giant hollowed out backs of pieces all I can think of is dollar store toys. Probably doesn't help that I am not a fan of the robot within a robot gimmick.

This KO figure should be remolded into a Powermaster Optimus Prime figure, don't you think? Because this is what it feels like.
Well sir you sold me ...again! Thank you for the Review! Just placed my order for this Big guy! Can't wait to add him to my collection! CHEERS
Want it! I'm just going to display him as a standalone prime in between my riff raff transformers. I don't anything that he will look good with, but I must have him.
Just got this today and man, the sheer size of this thing
Hope Nemesis Prime gets upscaled too.
With this head mold as an alternate option
u can get two bots in one figure plus u can get the back part of the truck mode as well compared to other models, and its cheaper
Wish the hands were blue. Definitely an issue I have with the original

I can't wait to receive mine
The blue handle and blue body of the Matrix of Leadership is the deal breaker for me.
i just ordered mine from taobao. i cant wait

great video as always. how much of him is metal? it's hard to tell.
Absolute massive *LEGEND.*

Orion Back-pax :D
this makes Orion Pax a load-bearer, same as Minimus Ambus
I want it for Pax but it looks really good
I need that truck mode sorted out then I’ll buy it.
I need Nemesis Prime Oversized Ver.
Pretty sweet. I wonder if they'll do one for Nemesis Prime as well.
Which Sunstreaker was that? Omnigonix?
Cuanto cuesta y como se hace el pedido
Man... super missed opportunity not moulding some jetback boosters on the backpack in mp mode...
I wish a company had done something similar with the combiner wars Ultra Magnus mould.
Yeah, me too!
Do you think they will make this star convoy ? It would be great if they did . Thanks for your video and keep up the great work
how many inch in height of this figure (after transformed into robot mode)?
30cm
I'm surprised that they didn't find a way to cover the shin.
no star convoy version? sad
13:04 what prime is that??!!
Third party companies will save us from the MP Optimus prime version3 next year by evil takaratomy
Evil Takara Tomy sounds like a good ko name. =)
KO companies will also be a saving grace for those who still want the official mold
@@johnbutner2570 🤣🤣🤣
Unless they follow suit with Takara and hike their prices too...

Did Orion not transform in War Dawn?
Tom K nope
Nice.

Oh lawd...

Blue Hands tho
I love the figure, but the truck part needs more work. It's really a big mess in the truck mode
Ben what's your thoughts on MP-44?
Sucker's too damn expensive lol
@@_AlexB_ true, I'd rather buy MP-10 over that expensive piece! 😅
Going with amazon japan drops the price significantly but still not to a satisfying number
for that price i could buy a few trassformers, and mp-01 as well as an mpp-10 for his price, or a toyworld constructor and something that's a little less than 100. he is just expensive

we'll hello their what is it you store here ???? Pax is worth it
I am soooo glad I held out and refused to buy power of the primes... prime... lol
I really hope the nemesis will get a release in this up scaled form. Urh i feel dirty just being amazed about how good this looks. 🤢
the name "Flame Robot" makes no sense. If they had OS'd the PotP Rodimus it wouldve made perfect sense to name him that.
Great review as always. Genuinely terrible mold, no matter how much paint and die-cast they added.
awful alt mode, but forgivable for the bot mode. and the price is pretty cheap
My God that thing is ugly.
