This has to be one of the most accurate OP's to ever have been manufactured. He looks like he jumped right out of the G1 Cartoon. Both my son and I's favorite Figure in our collection. Just for the overall simple brilliance of it.
indeed which is why this is pretty much the best generations/chug optimus prime we've gotten. poor siege optimus didn't couldn't enjoy the fame for long.
I just use Six Guns as his jetpack. The Siege Optimus has 2 holes on his back and neither is in the middle, meaning the jetpack is only on one side. Which really sucks. This optimus has one in the middle. Siege, tho, has 2 back holes for both of his weapons, but i gotta give it to this optimus, since he has holes in the trailer.
"I'm just cruise what their going to do for the third series?" well unicron is looming in the background of the box art. So maybe...............Unicron attack? *damn autocorrect*
I picked up my Transformers Optimus Prime at my local Target store. He has replaced my siege Optimus which I have in my collection. this is my first earthrise and know I'm on the hunt for the rest of them
My mum has it ready to give it to me for my birthday and im really excoted because i have been looking for a generations prime with a trailer that isn't as big as the original one were he could turn into orion pax aswell
Honestly as someone who has always wanted a MP 10 Optimus this is fucken dope. And it comes with basically the same thing as MP 10 minus the little humans and small cart. Its fantastic fun to transform and fun to pose. Omg the articulation on this this is godly yea there are minor issues with the waist because of the tires on his ass that block him from moving much but honestly it's not that bad. My only actual complaint is the gray peg on his blast I don't know why but it irritates me so much I guess if it wasn't gray but black I wouldn't have an issue.
Ohhh...I don't know if it's totally certain, but I think that it's been speculated that you can fit a Micromaster in there. Not sure why the trailer is so tiny; a look at the G1, at MP04 (MP01 plus trailer), at MP10, or even at MP44 all show that this thing is too little). I'll still get him if I ever see him in stores around here...he's a great addition to an Optimus collection, and my original choice for a Classics sized Optimus - KuBianBao MP10V - just doesn't fit anymore as that's a REALLY big Voyager (just barely taller than Generations Springer, Generations Sandstorm, & Transformers Prime Shockwave), and Siege shrunk down the scale all around. Anyway, we need a G2 color repaint of this: darker red & blue (a la Takara MP10 or DotM Striker Optimus), black trailer with red stripe and "OPTIMUS" in silver capital letters. Still shocked Hasbro hasn't done that with the MP01 or MP10 molds by now.
I concur completely about this new Earthrise Optimus Prime, he looks way amazing and very G1-esque! And the inclusion of the Matrix is a great bonus, there are a lot of Prime toys out there that look really nice and have great features, this one is certainly one of the best looking, it's a homerun from Hasbro, totally! Can't wait to see the next Megatron now, I don't know how different he will look from the Siege version, we'll see. Awesome review, Paul!
Anything like this close to scale 1/32 or 1/43? I recently started to play Marvel Crisis Protocol and I would love to use some Transformers in either mode as terrain for that Marvel/Transformers cross-over like in some old comics.
Do people just not know War for Cybertron is a retelling of G1 full stop? Think the RE2/RE3 Remakes. I just wish the trailer was bigger/longer. Looks so dinky.
I was THIS close to picking up the Siege figure, but I just wasn't quite sold on the oversized roof so I held off, and now I'm so glad that I did. This one is everything I wanted in an Optimus Prime, and I was able to get him at regular retail price. I've been trying various diecast vehicles, and the $6 hotwheels 89 Batmobile currently in stores(the one with the opening canopy) fits perfectly in the trailer.
I really like this model, but kinda wished it only came by itself and priced as a voyager as it is really no different from the Cybertronian Optimus.regards in size
D3aThStrok3 if u think about it, a third party company would probably sell the trailer itself for over $50. Here you get all(except for roller) for $50. Seems legit to me.
G1 roller will also fit in the trailer if you do not have the add-ons for this figure it's a little of a tight fit but it works and the trailer can still close completely
I really love the look of the siege war for Cybertron earthrise Optimus prime. Or though I would have loved him if he came with Roller, or his energon axe we saw him use in one episode in G1 Transformers when he had a battle with Megatron on the dam
It's good, but the trailer in the Ultra Magnus and Movie Prime leader classes offer a lot more value for the same price point with trailers that are full blown transformers themselves. All this one does is open up. It isn't even big enough to house most other siege transformers or even have a roller. It's fine, but I wish they made the trailer larger and painted it better to offset the difference.
I wish the trailer were just a little taller, wider, and longer. It looks fine, but it's just a little stubby. And that his front wheels could have been disappeared into his torso like the Siege one. But again, it's still very good.
I like how this figure looks more like an updated version of the original 1984 action figure. I just wish they did a better job with hiding the wheels and grill. But all and all a great figure
I resisted buying today at Toys'r'Us today but ya convinced me Paul! Compare this to the re-release of G1 Optimus earlier and it's amazing how far the mass produced/released figures have come.
What a fantastic figure and great 👍 review and thanks for sharing this with us Optibotimus and I can't wait for this to arrive at a shop near me here in London so I can buy it and keep up the great work and as always till all are fun 👍🎉🐯
You can fit the Datsun bots, Cliffjumper and any legends bots in the trailer. Not sure about much else as I don’t personally have the figure. Anything slightly less width as sideswipe will fit.
That custom Roller looks great on its own, but is a bit too big to be properly in scale with this Earthrise Optimums. Maybe one that only seat two titanmasters would work better.
I have this one. I will ding it one point for the poor location of the hitch pin for the trailer. A real truck can turn past 90 degrees, but this trailer jackknifes into the back of Optimus smoke stacks in truck form at about 30 degrees. The trailer hitch location needs to be further down the back of his legs so the trailer can turn 100 degrees. I should not have to 3D print an adapter so the trailer actually works as a trailer.
@@optibotimus I know your review is fantastic. :) Optimus Prime being outstanding, I know that statement is not entirely true. I was trying to "dare to be stupid" and praise Earthrise Optimus Prime as much as possible.
Sadly don't have a 3D printer, so hopefully Hasbro will give us a roller at some point. Can't wait to open this figure, hope i can get the G3 trailer to connect somehow.
Hey i have question i got my figure today and i just notice that the back of the head is metallic blue and the front is regular blue it's suppose to be like that or is that a error the back matches the color of the hands and the front is the same blue as the legs
I don't know if that detachable butt plate is intentional or not but I do hope it's intentional and applicable to deluxe figures. Most deluxe figures have basically the top of half of the car just folded as backpack. Detaching it most likely improve the figure display and play value ten fold... Off course there's the issue one could lost the backpack, but it's a risk I'd take.
I see that this commented was posted 1 week ago from my comment. At that point, you could have ordered this figure on hasbro pulse, and get it shipped to you for free if u have premium. Now it is sold out again.
You are absolutely right about that. I pre-ordered mine from Hasbropulse.com. According to their website, for those people who actually pre-ordered that weaponizer package, it is supposed to be shipped in the early part of October 2020.
Was waiting for the whole Ops thing lol....trust me I was wandering were tf the shield was then ol derp me look at package and trailer and figured it out.
The kibble on siege optimus prime is completely accurate to the SIEGE,EARTHRISE,& KINGDOM it is really accurate Because it's...i think the design they went with,but the two of these figures are after all, Great & Awesome!!
I Have 2-Earthrise w/Trailers & An Old HUGE 80's #Kenmore Trailer Which I Use On My Repainted NETFLIX Optimus; As He's NOW #NemesisPrime! I Even Added BM; Pteradaxdon & BM; #Slitherfang, In-Place Of His Yellow Energon BM; Weapons!
I'm hoping to get him for Christmas this year here and I'll be buying that skeleton Kingdom figure next year when it comes out over here in the UK but it might look really good and him haveing Optimus Prime holding the axe in both hands
I’m so glad I waited and skipped on the siege one, something about it just seemed incomplete... it’s weird, then this figure came out and it all made sense they knew what they were doing. Release the subpar one first thats good enough, then release the mini masterpiece
Siege: I make the best figures.
Earthrise: Hold my beer.
Dank Palpatine earthrise is still siege right?
well technically. earthrise is just their earth forms.

Hasbro, you’ve given us probably the best G1 Optimus Prime update. You can stop now!
The removable repair bay dude becomes a jetpack for prime if you fold him up. It looks odd but it works
Or a back gun
Y'know now that I tried that and added a stand and the beam effect parts from Sky Lynx, it actually looks pretty cool, thanks for the idea!

This is one of the best affordable figures in my option. Thanks for the videos so much 🙂
Best Optimus Prime since the first Robot In Disguise, aka Fire Convoy.
Cliffjumper, legends figures and Prowl can fit inside of the trailer.
I've been watching you since 2008... here I am still enjoying your videos! I just wanna satly thank you 😊
I appreciate that!
"I'm just cruise what their going to do for the third series?"
well unicron is looming in the background of the box art. So maybe...............Unicron attack?
*damn autocorrect*
Perhaps Unicron, but definitely not *Unicorn*. lol
For the third phase they'll probably put out a Leader Rodimus Prime with trailer that's actually good. That thing in POTP was a real disappointment.
I agree i got it its artwork was only stickers and i found it really hard to get the car in
Agreed
This has been an AMAZING 2 or 3 years worth of TF figures...simply amazing.
Part 3 should be Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge, Blurr, Kup, Hot Rod, maybe new earth Magnus, Junkions etc
Andrew McColl i need that hot rod to complete my prime killer starter pack.

Great figure, I especially like that Roller! Hasbro should have offered something like that.
I bet they hired a person who makes masterpiece transformers to make these

Same. I got some earthrise and siege figures for Christmas so for my birthday I will ask for this prime.
Cliffjumper and the Prowl mold figures fit in the trailer. That's all I've found from these line so far.

Hey, does anyone know how to use the red plastic to reveal something? It came inside the box
Yes theres a map on the box put the red plastic over it and it reveals the cybertronians location

G1 roller will also fit in the trailer if you do not have the add-ons for this figure it's a little of a tight fit but it works and the trailer can still close completely
