I want to curb stomp whoever had the idea of making rotb optimus an exclusive. If he was a normal release, me and everyone else would’ve had him by now
PREACH IT BROTHER!!! The only reason I got him was because My local store that sells opened and unopened figures from anything from the 80's until now. And I bought him at shelf price $36 had the owner knew the difference between the figures when he buys out collections it would have been $75 or higher. That's also where I finally found ROTB Scourge which Never hit our shelves here in north Alabama. Both came from a single person's collection and literally all he did with them was turn them into their vehicle mode and displayed them like that. Blew My mind it still had the brand new smell! I hope you have finally gotten one by now because I know this is an old video.
6:29 I have to point this out: that's paint. The mid-section sides and crotch piece is made of blue plastic thanks to the molding and painted over in that pearl gray. You can see the blue peaking through from the wheel hinges at 7:20. Same case of the grill like you pointed out, being casted in blue then painted over in red and silver.
@@jeremiahsacks2868 I didn't mean it in that sense. Just that those parts are on the blue sprew instead of proper red. I know there's a proper term but idk what it was.
@@chadderbug7587 it's when the clear runner is the only mould with enough room to put anything because all the other sprues are full so they put the opague part on the clear plastic and dunk it in the opposite color paint
@@theyamformerreborn706 I sure hope it's not fake. I was lucky enough to get a Buzzworthy Optimus but because so many people missed it that 2 pack needs to come out. I do hope the colors are different if it comes out because if the Optimus is tha same it'll take away the value the Buzzworthy one has.
@@omegamaximus1727 because Hasbro sucks ass when it comes to their distribution, especially with exclusives like SS 102 Optimus Prime. and apparently from what I’ve read on Hasbro Pulses comments on ROTB Prime, there was a slight restock for him on the 30th of last month… but of course, it sold out… again.
Excellent comparison review! Thanks for clearing my doubts on which Optimus Prime to get. My money is definitely on the Bumblebee Movie version; great robot and truck mode. 😉😁
The back of ss102 can be explained the figure was on a remold budget it was supposed to only be a slight remold of ss 38 but the designers sought to make it as close to the movie as possible so they compromised the on vehicle mode if they had a larger budget they prob would’ve made adjustments to the back of the truck that’s also why Primes axe comes with Primal
25:18 I didn't want to add this to my already very long comment but yiu transformed ROTB Optimus a little wrong. The panels yiu said look ugly next to the smokestacks rotate down and the little peg on Optimus' shin plugs into the groove on the panel. Just wanted to let you know.
I have the bmb version and plan to eventually get the rotb version just for the sake of having both and being able to compare the two and formulate my own opinion because the only place that has a clear cut objectively true answer to which one is better is the vehicle mode. However, from the looks of it, the rotb one has a lot of places where its slightly better, some places where its tied, and one or two places that are slightly worse, but the few places that are way worse are *way* worse. The rotb one also has some parts that confuse me, such as the hot rod shoulders, which never fail to bring endless huh??? factor when implemented on anyone that isn't hot rod, or how the entire back piece is blue plastic painted red. That, and I highly doubt that Hasbro was being truthful when they said that the windows and wheels were the only things yoinked from the bmb version.
FYI, those panels that you said were pretty ugly on the ROTB truck mode actually l\flip down BEFORE YOU CLIP THE ARMS IN. The really do help to secure those shin panels into place.
Honestly I can't stand the ROTB truck mode. I WANT to like it sooooo bad, but I can't. There's just always a new problem with it. The back is atrocious, no side mirrors, that hinge that cuts through the side windows, the top isn't color matched, the grill isn't complete, the smoke stacks are too long, it's just... Pain. The only thing it has going for it is that it's a licensed FLA, which is GREAT. But the ball just completely dropped.
So happy you did this comparison. Your Bayverse original toy vs Studio Series videos are some of your best so I was looking forward to your comparison between these Optimus'. I definitely think Rise Of The Beasts is the superior figure. Love that Robot mode so much. Truck could be better but I only display my Transformers in Robot mode so the truck doesn't bother me that much. I'm a person who likes when the vehicle mode has some sacrifices msxe for the robot mode, like the legs. The truck suffers for it, but they look much better in Robot mode in my opinion. Great video 👍
That is why I like your review. Because you try to show the comparisons and in-depth review of these figures which other sometimes lacks to show. Keep it up man!! And awesome review again
I had a bit of trouble with getting SS 102. Because all the targets in my area suck, so I pre ordered it instead of getting it at retail. I was supposed to get it August 2-7 but because so many people ordered it, it got delayed to August 22, which is fine. When it was the 22nd, it was delayed again to the 29th, getting annoying now. When it was the 29th, it got cancelled for whatever reason
For information the reason the ROTB truck back looks bad and incomplete is because the designers literally ran out of money they had used the budget up on the rest of the figure
In my opinion, though ROTB Optimus Prime's truck mode is not as clean as Bumblebee Prime's truck mode, it is still a lot better. I know Bumblebee Prime is from 5 years ago, but that doesn't change anything, the new Prime is more scale accurate, has better articulation, has a better head sculpt, and has a better truck mode despite its flaws. I'm glad to own Bumblebee Optimus only because the ion blaster he comes with is better than ROTB Prime's accessories.
SS38 has a better truck mode. SS102 has a better robot mode. I like them both. But I prefer robot mode than truck mode. I prefer better articulation. So for me I prefer SS102
Umm, SS-38 is very inaccurate? It's accurate to the concept art that the RoTB was based on, but it is a farcry from the finalized design seen in Bumblebee.
Personally I love the bumblebee movie prime it looks amazing it has good articulation and it has that g1 look and on the rotb I just don't like the front ram bar thing it doesn't look good to me so 100% bumblebee wins
102 is the most movie-accurate Rise of the Beasts Optimus in both robot & truck mode. Not to mention that he comes with movie-accurate weapons, while the Mainline Voyager doesn't.
both are great but i def prefer the new buzzworthy one. the bumblebee one has probably the best truck mode of all mainline primes. however, i got the go better upgrade kit for the buzzworthy prime which imo is a must have because it makes the legs and especially the truck mode infinitely better.
I love the bumblebee movie version so much but I just wish it had less kibble like the rotb one. I also kinda don’t like the rotb head sculpt although, I guess I could swap the heads like you showed. ( if I get the rotb one 😂)
I feel like the new SS-102 Optimus Prime is the much better figure sure he’s hard to find in targets luck for me my target which was a bit far from me had 3 had to pick up one of them and he’s a perfect figure great accessories, Paint Apps, And Great Articulation if you can’t find him theres a KO coming out soon
I'm getting the ROTB version for my birthday (in 2 days) and although I don't have either of the toys as of rn, the back of the truck on the rotb version doesn't really bother me. Videos n stuff sometimes do make things look either better or worse than how they are in person imo (example, SS Scourge: The neck and things like the back of the truck and holes in the side of the truck don't bother me as much as they used to when I was watching reviews on it so see if I should get it or not)
The SS 102 is getting more intriguing for me. Mostly because of the robot mode and posability. I didn't really want it cuz my SS 38 is enough (and holds sentimental value since I got it for my birthday), however it's beginning to show it's age, the silver paint is just gone and I need to fix his hips however the screw head is destroyed, so if I find this figure I mind as well get it.
I wish there was a add o kit to turn the bee movie prime truck look simmlar to rise of beast truck mode with the grill I wouldent mind if it became a shield that would be awesome for bot mode
In many ways, I prefer the Bumblebee Movie version, but in others, the Buzzworthy Prime ain't bad. Posablilty and over all bot mode goes to Buzzworthy, transformation and truck mode goes to Bumblebee Movie. I still don't like Buzzworthy's shoulders though, waiting for the DNA kit to fix all that, that kit will probably make him an easy 9-9.5 out of 10.
If I wanna get a tf figure I always want it to be the best in both modes and while ss102 is absolutely amazing in robot mode and articulation wise it's one of the most posable transforming figures I've ever owned only 2nd to optus pexus... The truck mode is unable to be excused in any way So for my money I'd rather get ss38 which I did get
These things are both overhyped as hell And to explain ROTB Prime’s back in truck mode. It was originally supposed to just be a slight retool of SS38 until somehow the design team basically made it a new toy. So considering it wasn’t supposed to be a complete new toy, they didn’t have the required budget to fix up the truck bed. I don’t even know how they afforded to make the upper body as different as it is at all
It's NEITHER. I'm getting the Baiwei KO...or is it 3rd Party? Idk, but I got SS38 instead of his wave mate Rampage, and the ROTB Prime was A FUCKING EXCLUSIVE to Target. Been to 5 DIFFERENT TARGETS and they ALL said they haven't gotten any.
@@Jcc2224 I don’t understand all the differences between all the different Optimus figures, beyond that they are grouped and modeled after some categories, like: Original, Bay-verse, Live Action (Bumblebee/Beasts), and all the other various shows/movies. In terms of the “class” like “commander”, I don’t understand all those. I am looking for one that looks like the Bumblebee/Beasts, or even a hybrid between those and the original, is under $200, has Leadership, good windows, no ridiculous backpack, the and has a near-prefect robot and truck mode.
If your budget is $200 or less, you have SEVERAL options! The ROTB Voyager I showed here- very solid but with some minor flawa The Beiwei you mentioned, which is a KO of the ROTB voyager with some improvements The original Bumblebee Voyager, shown here The Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee movie Optimus Prime. It's around $100 but it's larger and seems pretty nice, although has a few minor flaws. I'd say grab the Beiwei, it's only 20 bucks so it's no biggie if it ends up being replaced!
I have a Ko bbm optimus, got him off Temu with ten other things for seven bucks, managed to get bbm prime for free. And honestly. For me even though it's a Ko, it's leagues better than ss102 bot mode looks great, yeah they could've hidden the kibble a bit better but I don't honestly care, Vehicle mode is great, its accurate to real life trucks for the most part looks Way better than SS 102 articulation could be better but I'm not gonna complain sense I got it for free pretty much. I'm not going get a good prime with a mid vehicle mode Especially if it's an exclusive. The only Target exclusive things I'm fine with is the Hg Gundam breaker battolouge kits.
Me personally, I only saw Bumblebee recently, and was extremely disappointed. The movie fans call “the good one” was just the same garbage i’d expect from Michael Bay. So I have more of an attachment not to the Bumblebee design, but the old Studio Series toy specifically? So i like that one more
it pains me to say Bee movie is better and shame the only one rise of the beasts toy Im not buin is the one I wanted the most, so no Im not gettin rotb studio series optimus, maybe on clearence but that wont happend in my country. And there is no excuse for that like many fans would say, like no one will be displayin it in vehicle mode, but still that is half of the toy, if you dont care for vehicle mode, then why even bother to buy one. Just stick with the yolo part or whatever the name was and stop protecting this toy. This is grandious fail on HASBROs side. And in my country this will cost like 50€,and if I want it to be delivered from another country its gonna cost even more, for uncompleted toy, FOR A TOY. stupid plastic with joints. So no to studio series rise of the beasts optimus prime.
why are all of the hasbro figures now lacking so much paint. just leaving a horrible grey unpainted plastic on every single figure. I have the mainline optimus rotb and display him in truck mode since it hides it all.
Rotb prime here has a lot of paint, just not in the right areas. The grill piece and mid section are cast in blue plastic and painted over in red and silver on the grill and pearl gray and yellow in the torso. Probably an oversight in the gang molding, but oh well.
Just for info, on the rotb one you can moove the grey parts next to the smokstacks so they go down in vehicle mode
I want to curb stomp whoever had the idea of making rotb optimus an exclusive. If he was a normal release, me and everyone else would’ve had him by now
Facts I been had the cash to get him but nope hasbro just hates money
I want to take his face
Hasbro said that they had to make him an exclusive because they used up the rest of their studio series slots with other figures

Ayoo
I really hope the new Optimus isn't a pain to find up here, so far I haven't seen a trace of him. Still baffles me they made him exclusive.
Good luck to you man, I’m hoping to find one but I’m not sure of my luck. He’ll probably get a more traditional rerelease or repaint at some point.
They’re doing a two pack with Scourge eventually that will be more widely available.

There is one more thing Bumblebee movie Prime has over ROTB Prime: it’s more readily available!
Facts
What are you talking about he’s just as hard to find if not harder since ROTB is coming out in February (at least February on Amazon)
@@CaptainRex332 this was made when he WAS more readily available before he became scarce again, you’re a year late bud.
@@Soundwave0fKaon93 I’m not a year late I tried getting him when this was first released and it was impossible
@ he was also available for a good while when the ROTB version was hard to find, around the time this video was released.
Lucky that you got Studio Series 102 Optimus Prime. Too bad I couldn’t find this toy at my local Target in Fresno ,California nor Hasbro Pulse.
I live in California too, and according to the target app.. it seems to be out of stock in almost every target location in Cali.
Ugh 😩. Why ?

I ended up getting the Black Mamba ko. Great job hasbro for making it exclusive, I hope the amount Target paid you makes up for the loss in sales.
SS 38 KNOCKS SS 102 OUT OF THE WATER!!
I find both to be weaker than the Baiwei 1030 Ko of ss102. They basically completed what Hasbro didn’t have the budget to do.
Honestly I can't stand the ROTB truck mode. I WANT to like it sooooo bad, but I can't. There's just always a new problem with it.

Dang they both look awesome
For me, it's the Bumblebee one, cause it's NOT A TARGET EXCLUSIVE and you can get it in more places
Imo the new one looks hideous, Im so sad we didnt get to see the bbm design again
You’re making some damn fine Transformers content. Keep up the awesome work. 😎
I store arm cannon inside his chest in robot mode. The cavity his head slips into us perfect size for cannon piece
I don’t mind how the back of the truck is on the ss 102 it’s not the worst thing
my dark commander bootleg came today and i've been flipping it back and forth non-stop, i'm super happy with it, best £15 i've spent on anything
I like the BB Optimus better. Better balance between the 2 modes had me sold on it over the RotB Optimus.

Well that's just PRIME.
Same. I ended up getting him on Amazon.
Robot Mode: Rise of the Beasts
Truck Mode: Bumblebee movie
Doesn’t matter, AOE Evasion Mode clears both, lol.
If you mean the rusty version, then I can sorta agree… otherwise, not even close.
For information the reason the ROTB truck back looks bad and incomplete is because the designers literally ran out of money they had used the budget up on the rest of the figure

I prefer better articulation.
So for me I prefer SS102
they are both strong solid figures
honestly love both of these figures ❤
This was a really good comparison bro! You really know what your talking about! Great video!
I've been summoned
Umm, SS-38 is very inaccurate? It's accurate to the concept art that the RoTB was based on, but it is a farcry from the finalized design seen in Bumblebee.
The ROTB Prime toy is a soulless recreation of the Bumblebee Prime toy.
SS 38 is still the goat. But the Reactivate Prime might give it a run for its money. I should be getting him today !!
Personally I love the bumblebee movie prime it looks amazing it has good articulation and it has that g1 look and on the rotb I just don't like the front ram bar thing it doesn't look good to me so 100% bumblebee wins
102 is the most movie-accurate Rise of the Beasts Optimus in both robot & truck mode. Not to mention that he comes with movie-accurate weapons, while the Mainline Voyager doesn't.
Ss102 wins for sure to me. Love it way more than the ss38
i own ss38 (knockoff) and imo its the best. it can also work as ROTB prime.
both are great but i def prefer the new buzzworthy one. the bumblebee one has probably the best truck mode of all mainline primes. however, i got the go better upgrade kit for the buzzworthy prime which imo is a must have because it makes the legs and especially the truck mode infinitely better.
also the one I have has mettle chestplates or window things
Is this ss38 Optimus Prime? The thick boi.
TBH, I would have split the arms. Like shoulder and forearm. Since imo, BB Optimus has better shoulders and then ROTB Optimus has the better forearm.
I love the bumblebee movie version so much but I just wish it had less kibble like the rotb one. I also kinda don’t like the rotb head sculpt although, I guess I could swap the heads like you showed. ( if I get the rotb one 😂)
Agree with ya 100 percent, the new ones head looks hideous, the bbm version looks sooo much better imo
I still love that mainline Prime
I really want to see you do an old vs new on generations and earthrise wheeljack
I feel like the new SS-102 Optimus Prime is the much better figure sure he’s hard to find in targets luck for me my target which was a bit far from me had 3 had to pick up one of them and he’s a perfect figure great accessories, Paint Apps, And Great Articulation if you can’t find him theres a KO coming out soon

They need to stop releasing Studio Series versions until they perfect the figures. They should focus on the mainline.

can u put my name in next video im subbed also just so you know on rotb prime they ran out of budget on the back
I think SS102 is better than SS38 there’s nothing wrong with SS38 but 102 has better proportions
I subbed❤
I prefer the Ss 102
Same
I have both so win win lol
I'm content with the BMBB version. I really dislike the ROTB head sculpt.
Same brutha, it looks hideous
My MZM supreme commander(rotb prime upscale and massively improves the legs) is so much better than the voyager
Me personally, I only saw Bumblebee recently, and was extremely disappointed. The movie fans call “the good one” was just the same garbage i’d expect from Michael Bay. So I have more of an attachment not to the Bumblebee design, but the old Studio Series toy specifically? So i like that one more
i think both are the same
Definitely the ss 102 optimus prime is way better
Its hideous
it pains me to say Bee movie is better and shame the only one rise of the beasts toy Im not buin is the one I wanted the most, so no Im not gettin rotb studio series optimus, maybe on clearence but that wont happend in my country. And there is no excuse for that like many fans would say, like no one will be displayin it in vehicle mode, but still that is half of the toy, if you dont care for vehicle mode, then why even bother to buy one. Just stick with the yolo part or whatever the name was and stop protecting this toy. This is grandious fail on HASBROs side. And in my country this will cost like 50€,and if I want it to be delivered from another country its gonna cost even more, for uncompleted toy, FOR A TOY. stupid plastic with joints. So no to studio series rise of the beasts optimus prime.
why are all of the hasbro figures now lacking so much paint. just leaving a horrible grey unpainted plastic on every single figure. I have the mainline optimus rotb and display him in truck mode since it hides it all.
Rotb prime here has a lot of paint, just not in the right areas. The grill piece and mid section are cast in blue plastic and painted over in red and silver on the grill and pearl gray and yellow in the torso. Probably an oversight in the gang molding, but oh well.
