Please, never stop making videos Your content is a breath of fresh air in the Transformers community. I truly appreciate the humor you bring to your videos and how you're always honest with your opinions. You've even helped me get back into Transformers. You're truly more than meets the eye, LinkFrostimus :D
Thank you SillyBilly I really appreciate it. To respond to your other comment on the Missing Link video, I've been heavily considering quitting ever since the begging of the year, simply because I've had the realization that I've been putting so much hours and effort into my videos only for them to not get the traction I think they deserve. I'm not trying to guilt trip anyone by saying this, it's just more a personal frustration I've had with this channel. I'm starting to believe spending all this time on videos is just a waste. We will see what the future wholes but I do have a backlog of stuff planned for this year and next year. If anything though I'm still proud of all the videos I made and am happy that they have that timeless feel to them; they'll always still be a good watch years from now.
I have the studio series and love it, but this video actually makes me want to buy the brave commander and hope i win the qc lottery, probably not for 90 bucks though. Great review as always! Love your style!
Studio Series' 112 Prime in my opinion is great, it's small and affordable, but I can't deny that Leader CLASS Optimus Prime looks cool also, especially that Vehicle mode
Honestly I never knew this existed until this video and Emgo video was on my recommended and this is everything I wanted studio series to do and he looks perfect tbh So I might pick this guy up for my birthday possibly Thank you man
Optimus Prime review with Doors Music? Killer! Also, I would not sleep on the SS Deluxe. The grey is only really bad on the arms and midriff, but the plastics arre more consistent and there is nust a feeling of solidity. He has his issues but for little deluxe they aren't that bad
Indeed, I feel bad your you guys outside Japan- I’m here for years now and no one does TF like Takara; I barely collect any Hasbro releases for years now like some great Studio Series and the Haslab Unicron.
Honestly love both this guy and studio series' proportions since well ss is more accuratr but brave commander kinda leans into a more erathrise style look which looks great (Also is 2:40 fucking x hunter stage 1 and 2 remix)
Just saw the movie, and so glad I preordered this one day one, despite the Q/C issues. Bottom line is Hasbro doesn't even come close to properly representing this iteration of Orion Pax prime in SS let alone Mainline. I may have gone with SS but the throwaway guns, and ugly brown/grey plastic were immediate deal breakers. While agreed, Takara could have probably done a lot better here for the price point it's still the best option outside of a non transforming version. Could have sworn he had an ion canon at the end of the movie so where's his ion canon? That final Megatron design definitely deservers the Brave Commander treatment at some point. Great music choice.
I have to agree! This one definitely looks better than Studio Series. I would like Takara to do a Brave Commander style Megatron too but I’m doubtful since they usually don’t make a Megatron either their “leader” Primes. Thank you! The Doors are awesome!
Oof, those loose shoulder joints/inability to hold the axe really hurts - surely there's a way to fix it? I'm still tempted to get him when he releases here (I can custompaint/fix nub-marks and basic "gunpla" shenanigans but not sure on how to tackle loose joints with TFs (need special tools for the pins n teeny tiny screwdrivers.)
I got him but without all the qc issues, no loose shoulder, wrist only slightly move when i attach the axe, but overall not too bad. And i got him around RM230 (8000yen). Its still do be expensive but idk i still like him tho hahahh. Wish he got more articulation
Lucky! I still like him too, and it helps that Amazon JP lowered him to 7000 yen so I'm not as salty about his price! But Hasbro and other places for $80 is too much
I know the Studio Series looks a bit ugly with the strange bronze (which is actually accurate to the original models, no matter how weird it looks) but mine has only 1 QC issue: the chest doesnt properly tab in, which could actually be my own fault. For a Deluxe hes big, his joints are tight but dont feel like theyre going to break, hes very articulated and the alt mode is really nice to compare to Animated Optimus, which might be one of many inspirations. Im sure hell look even better when the other characters come out, but yeah, hes good and he seems way more worth it than the Takara version
I think the colors are what's holding him back because he does look and pose phenomenally. Definitely think he's worth his price more than Brave Commander is. It would be funny if Takara brought back the Premium Finish line for the dead to make a better looking, more expensive deluxe prime lol
Yes. I already preordered Super Ginrai. As for God Bomber, I am debating on whether to get the special edition and if I do, whether to order it on Amazon JP or directly through Takara Tomy Mall now that I live in Japan.
I'd rather spend $25 on a great smaller figure that has a kinda ugly grey color that I got used to pretty quickly then spend $80 on this. $80 is way to much for the figure. $60 is pushing the most I'd even consider paying. I'm good with the Studio Series for now
I was about to say man, you are nitpicking the hell out of this thing, even the fact that you see through the arm gap on the back of the cab in vehicle mode, i mean really? What did you expect this guy costs not that far from the mainline figure, then you mentioned hasbro sells it to you for 80usd? Thats a lot. I ordered it in my country(phils) for 2.8k pesos(1k pesos more than retail mainline figures here) and 2.8k is almost half your 80usd. So, i guess you are expecting much naturally from something so expensive. But i think you are expecting a little too much. Some of your complaints are non-issues to me or probably many people, but hey, each their own. I enjoy you get to be funny while not being Jobby-annoying, i cannot take that level of adhd format editing. So kudos and to more videos
Legs = yes

Go see the Movie the Sequel Depends On It🗣
I have the studio series and love it, but this video actually makes me want to buy the brave commander and hope i win the qc lottery, probably not for 90 bucks though. Great review as always! Love your style!
Thank you! If you do get it I hope QC favors you greatly
New sub man, loved this video
nice choice in background music the doors are one of the best bands to ever grace the music world
Studio Series' 112 Prime in my opinion is great, it's small and affordable, but I can't deny that Leader CLASS Optimus Prime looks cool also, especially that Vehicle mode
Definitely an awesome vehicle mode!
1:41 elita knows what hes packing
WOAHHH
Honestly I never knew this existed until this video and Emgo video was on my recommended and this is everything I wanted studio series to do and he looks perfect tbh
So I might pick this guy up for my birthday possibly
Thank you man
Enjoy him, and happy birthday!
@@linkfrostimus thanks so much man and Till All Are One
damn, hasbro done pissed lil bro off
Hasbro is safe… it’s Takara that pissed me off!
Linkfrostimus my goat 🔥

🤣 too many funny moments to count 👏
I wish the Studio Series had this guys grey colours becuase the one they used looks like it sat in front of a chainsmoker for 40 years
Takara definition dropped the ball on this figure.
Pop off, king!
Omg Kawen!
I don't even own it and I already NEED a Megatron version please
Wish megatron got the same treatment
Me too!
Why don’t they release this in the US? We deserve this amazing leader class figure too
It would be awesome to see it in store shelves ngl
@@linkfrostimus yep
Indeed, I feel bad your you guys outside Japan- I’m here for years now and no one does TF like Takara; I barely collect any Hasbro releases for years now like some great Studio Series and the Haslab Unicron.
Bro your editing is fuckin kino
only major flaw is that in alt mode, his windshield mirror shape is worng. it's the one for his second form, when he first gets the cog.
Honestly love both this guy and studio series' proportions since well ss is more accuratr but brave commander kinda leans into a more erathrise style look which looks great
(Also is 2:40 fucking x hunter stage 1 and 2 remix)
First time watching your video and I must say it's peak
Thank you 😌 there is more where that came from!
5:24 pause to sham the prime.
Soy latino y debo decir que me lleve un buen rato con este análisis muy divertido y único 😂 XD sin duda te mereces mi tiempo
Where the comments at??? Another banger bro
That's transformation looks fun honestly
Honestly annoyed me a lot at first! It's still fun but it is finicky.
@linkfrostimus dope bro, hey so do you live in japan?

❤❤❤❤❤❤
Honestly. I kinda want him, he looks great! Also, to me, the color miss match is barely noticeable.
He does look great! Unfortunately with how much color mismatching MP figures have I have a trained eye for it :C
Oof, those loose shoulder joints/inability to hold the axe really hurts - surely there's a way to fix it?

I'm sure there's a way! People always find a way for those things. Custom painting this thing will go hard too!
I got him but without all the qc issues, no loose shoulder, wrist only slightly move when i attach the axe, but overall not too bad. And i got him around RM230 (8000yen). Its still do be expensive but idk i still like him tho hahahh. Wish he got more articulation

Welp guess I’ll just buy the studio series and paint it if I want to
Some custom paintjobs I've seen really do it justice! I'm sure you're will look just as good :)
The chest is very small because it needed to faux form
I know the Studio Series looks a bit ugly with the strange bronze (which is actually accurate to the original models, no matter how weird it looks) but mine has only 1 QC issue: the chest doesnt properly tab in, which could actually be my own fault. For a Deluxe hes big, his joints are tight but dont feel like theyre going to break, hes very articulated and the alt mode is really nice to compare to Animated Optimus, which might be one of many inspirations. Im sure hell look even better when the other characters come out, but yeah, hes good and he seems way more worth it than the Takara version
I think the colors are what's holding him back because he does look and pose phenomenally. Definitely think he's worth his price more than Brave Commander is. It would be funny if Takara brought back the Premium Finish line for the dead to make a better looking, more expensive deluxe prime lol
So how do I get this guy for less than 90 bucks
That's a good question! I dunno.
now we need "Leader Class" Brave Commander line megatron to be fair.. but i do not think takara will made one
Yeah I don't think so either. It would be cool but historically Takara never does a Megatron to go alongside their Optimus :/
I want it, I never got it
will you sell your soul for MP Super Ginrai and MP God Bomber?
Yes. I already preordered Super Ginrai. As for God Bomber, I am debating on whether to get the special edition and if I do, whether to order it on Amazon JP or directly through Takara Tomy Mall now that I live in Japan.
My soul has been sold
Not sure if any one else pointed this out but he has the Orion Pax truck and not the Optimus one😭 The difference is the windshield size lmao
I did actually :P
@@linkfrostimus oh shit i didn’t realize😭
@@17_2nd_Studios Haha no worries!
Nah, it’s the mouth 😂
Does anybody elses right arm keep falling off when twisting it? It's really annoying.
I'd rather spend $25 on a great smaller figure that has a kinda ugly grey color that I got used to pretty quickly then spend $80 on this. $80 is way to much for the figure. $60 is pushing the most I'd even consider paying. I'm good with the Studio Series for now
I agree, even with $60 there is still much better "actual" leader class figures you could buy with that money!
This is very jobby-esque
jobby the hong is that youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu?

Half of 80USD for this guy is a steal, I definitely wouldn't be complaining as much as I did with that price
He's cool but not worth 90 bucks imo
Agreed!
I just canceled my pre order. I'll wait for a 3rd party company to make a better one.
@@papi12791 yup, that's exactly what I'm waiting for too
funny
bro is trying to act like Jobby
he's trying too hard to be funny
If your talking to me in English then you interrogate me in Japanese I’m wetting my pants
Every time this guy speak Japanese, *cringes into oblivion*
