    The ROTF and MPM figures may be better in terms of screen accuracy, engineering, and display, but the older figures still possess a nice playability not seen in years apart from the occasional new releases for the simpler lines.

    Another solid review, PVP! :D It’s such a shame I never picked this guy up back in the day as I really do miss how plastic toys felt way back in the day; strong, and sturdy with amazing, thick, heavy, ratcheting joints, and absolutely satisfying, snapping parts (honestly those are some of my favorite sounds of all time! I could listen to them for hours), and I’m glad to see that this Optimus Prime has hold up really well ever after almost 1-1/2 decades later! I think the only thing I don’t like about this figure other than it not being not quite film accurate is the auto-morph gimmick for revealing the head, and that’s mainly because I hate the gear mechanism when the head lifts up, or down, it sounds godawful to me, and I do worry about it wearing down overtime (that, and I think the figure is a bit too kibble-y, and could use just a bit more articulation, but that’s okay), other than that, this is truly a fantastic, well-built figure, and the Vehicle Mode is where this guy really shines! Even though I never got this guy when he first came out, he is still one of my favorite Optimus Prime figures of all time! Oh, and I think I’m fine with figures having playable gimmicks as long as they don’t hamper said figures’ articulations too, terribly much (of course, any toy that has electronics should always have an on/off switch). ;)

    It was Christmas of 2009 I was 10 years old when I opened up my Christmas present revealing the revenge of the fallen Optimus prime leader class figure. Ever since the first movie came out I wanted a leader class figure of Optimus prime and I got one and man I fell in love with that toy not only was it Optimus prime but to me it was the most movie accurate toy I’ve ever had. I played with that toy for years, I’m 25 years old and still have him. I did buy the ufo annular trailer when I was 17 or 18, for my figure to have the dark of the moon feels. Still have that to and it looks fantastic with my figure. I still love my leader class figure and will keep him for many more years.

  • @Optimusprime809
    @Optimusprime809 2 года назад +5

    Duuuude! I could only ever thirst for this figure when I was younger, I really wanted him! Managed to get a second hand version missing parts about a decade later, and then I bought another one that had some parts I needed and merged the two together to have a near complete version. Such a fun figure, I miss having such well built, well designed figures for such a good price.

    That little part where you went on about how you don't really see spring loading on transformers anymore just made me realize that Transformers nowadays are just glorified action figures. They aren't toys anymore. Look at the past few toylines: WFC, Combiner Wars, and Titans Return, no real play features to them. But look back a few years at the Animated and Movie toylines, you had Mechtech, Automorph, and(dare I mention it) Human Alliance figures. Almost every figure back then had some kind of play feature to them. Nowadays it's just: They transform, that's it oh and you get some accessories

    I miss fun gimmicks on figures too, honestly. I didn't have many as a kid but I had Vector Prime and Starscream from Cybertron, and Energon Optimus. I still regret getting rid of those figures, and I got the two Cyberverse Officer-Class figures to compensate. And while the voice features on those figures aren't great, they still have fun auto-morph gimmicks for their weapons and Optimus's armour looks fantastic. I do hope that maybe we can see more stuff like that in the main line in the future, maybe if the Beast Wars re-issues are received well so we can at least see missile launching gimmicks? Eh.

    Does anybody know what those things are called on optimus shoulders

    I had that one optimus prime where you press a button and a shitload of weapons pop out. I don’t think it transformed but I loved that thing.

      @@PrimeVsPrime Yeah, I think it was released around dark of the moon? Never got tired of playing with it. It felt like the precursor to the robotic Optimus Prime that just got released.

    Which version of the figure is this? I have the OG 2007 Leader Prime and I don't remember it having this much chrome on it.
