I love how Optus Pexus feels so much that I almost just want to get this one too, even though it's almost the same mold. Maybe if I skip meals for a week...
The colors are so interesting. As someone who collects all kinds of primes, I try to get a different paint scheme whenever I can. That being said very happy to add this super uniquely painted prime.
This is my favorite version of the mold as well. Not only the colors but the head sculpt has been improved imo. Plus, the extra accessories are more than welcome! One of the best molds of Optimus Prime in general.
btw @Peaugh, since you've reviewed 52toys megabox/beastbox figs, will you be getting and reviewing Dr Wu's Energy Dragon(which is basically a 52toys thing)
I've got Prominon on order. Is it actually taller than the others versions? The shot around 23:25 makes him look a bit taller than the Shattered Glass version, but maybe the legs are just extended a bit more. Already have the SG and Nemesis versions.
MMC is REALLY milking this mold for all it's worth aren't they? I say even though I would be hella tempted to get a second copy if I can get it in green and purple.
I've been holding off purchasing this figure alongside the Powerlinx recolor of Naval Commander but your review on this figure really made me pull the trigger on this and I figured I might as well pick up the powerlinx Naval commander as well considering considering that I don't think I'll be able to find one in the original deco lol! Great review as always!
I saw this and had to pull the trigger. I love the colors and the accessories that come with him. This feels like an upgrade from the original mold. I can't wait to get him in hand. Definitely a B.A.M.F figure.
Ok, seeing as they like reusing the mold... add wings to the shoulders and long cannons and paint it up as Optimal Optimus. The truck would work well for OO's ground mode, almost like the old titanium figure.
I am so glad I held off on buying this mold in hopes we got a more accurate Stormbringer version, can't wait to get mine in
I hope you enjoy it. He’s fun!

And pre-ordered thanks to your review. I have no experience with this figure so I'm looking forward to messing with him
Awesome! I hope you enjoy it!

Hey peaugh they released a recolor of the prominon mold (nox prominon) definitely worth buying and reviewing
this retool actually makes me really like the War Within design.

Agreed!
I love that this matches Optimus' appearance in IDW's Transformers: Stormbringer.
what about a "burning" recolor, black with orange flame bits - and a new head to make him the Fallen?
Oh. That would also rule.

Considering it.
Why haven't we seen a Matrix sword more often?!

Praying we get a Stormbringer Megatron to go with him
I like the darker blue on Optus pexus

I can see that looking nice too.
@@peaugh Hell I will even commission that if I have to.
Since those are 'my' colors for things.

The powerlinx Naval Commander is also quite nice.
Love all 3 version but this.... Does put a smile on my face

Yellow Splendid Convoy when
Or Green Beast Hunter
Oh, yeah, both of those would be cool. Get weird with them.
I'm happy with this purchase.
Optus Pexus, Supercop, was ok as either Pax or Prime (who just got the Matrix). This one is unmistakably Prime.
Did not realize this version not all the previous weapon options AND better guns. I might pick him up as the Optimus of the 13 primes.
I have the previous 3 versions and will probably get this one too. One of my fav MMC products
I had to cancel my preorder unfortunately. I’m hoping that it’s still available in a week or two. I’m dying to pick this up!
It should stay available for a bit since it just came out, hopefully.

I don't think retreading the recolours makes sense. They should do new stuff like Diaclone or Fireguts or something.
Damn this mold looks amazing the head is so much better
Yeah, the mold was already great and this is possibly the best version of it.
