When Bayverse And G1 Finally Blended Together | #transformers AOE Evasion Mode Optimus Prime
I’m surprised we haven’t seen more Bayverse designs with G1 altmodes. Someone should display him with SS BBM VW Bumblebee.
Because is weird if the movies are actually did in 2000's time and not in 80's and 90's.
I went with the Wei Jiang version and I will agree that figure is an insane beast. I was so glad they made him in MP style.
For me, it's nutty to see a new review of this figure. Cuz I just dug mine out from storage after years of not playing with the figure.
I got this optimus prime for 12$
i still stand by that they could pretty much rerelease this figure with accurate paint and better tabbing for the torso and the shoulders and it would be perfectly in line with today's standards. its crazy how much they COOKED with this figure and has been a holy grail for me since i skipped on it for grimlock back in 2014. luckily i got it from a guy on mercari a couple months ago and i love it, he still holds up SO WELL today.
If they were to rerelease this, they should also do the fixes they did with the leader. It's pretty much perfect 10 years later
"You like evasion mode Optimus because G1 truck. I like evasion mode Optimus because rusty transformers are cool. We are not the same 👔".
Cool review btw. I just wish the rusty decos of this figure were more easily accessible.
Probably one of the top 50 optimus primes
I have the Movie the Best rerelease.
Back in 2014, I wanted this figure SO MUCH, and after almost 10 years I finally got him and it's one of my fav figures I own.
I also remember wanting this since 2014 and I got it in 2019 and was really satisfied
That is the best version of this figure 😊
Yeah man I even remember the takara variants with rust or the nemesis prime paint job
This is the design Optimus should've had for the entirety of TF 4 and 5. It's so much better than the Knight design. They should've just cleaned up his rust and given him his shiny reds and blues, just like on this figure. Missed opportunity 😔
I feel like the knight design could have been used as Nemesis prime if he was a different character and not a possessed Optimus
Nah, the knight design was perfect. This design is good, but this is them going back on their views of G1 design. Too little, too late.
@@aires425 my problem with the Knight design is he has no car parts that make up his robot mode. I feel like that should be a given with a Transformer, especially one with as iconic of a vehicle mode as Optimus Prime
Hot Take 🔥🔥🔥
@@aires425 The knight design is good but problematic when it barely had any truck parts on him and doesn't translate well into a figure, why else do you think most tf4/tf5 optimus toys aren't the best looking except for voyager tf5 optimus and some 3rd party company exceptions?. This wasn't them changing their views on the g1 design, even if it was, it was not too late as this design blends the two.
Tf4 needed more robotic designs with actual car parts, not metal humans or robot designs with no car parts but somehow turn into cars anyway
Evasion Mode Optimus is definitely one of the best Prime molds we've gotten, imo. The normal toy deco is definitely...lacking, though, yeah. Like you said, it's not a lack of paint, but instead that they just kinda slathered blue paint on that in place of using blue plastic and highlighting the various details. I still love the damn thing though. Loved it at the time, still love it now. Definitely worth grabbing at least one version of the mold.
I found out at the time that if you rotate the head while transforming, when you close everything the windows line up perfectly and the middle part with the grill gets kinda locked in place. Was an interesting hack I don't think many people discovered yet. Also another funny thing with this figure is how it kinda makes a g1 cosplay by having angled forearms, the double tires on the lower legs and a gun that can't be held by its proper handle
I remember always wanting an evasion mode but they never stocked him at any of my stores
Ahh yes interesting toy indeed. Owned this beauty and still my main prime
This is one of the TF figures I am searching for, though TF Cybertron Optimus prime takes priority
I loved him then, and I love him now
At the time I actually split the cost of the Platinum Edition Autobots Reunite set with a buddy, he got Crosshairs and Hound, I got Bee, Drift and Optimus, and I was happy with that deco!
I'd had my eyes however on this one version that was like- I'm pretty sure it was a Japanese exclusive that basically perfected the rusty truck look that the set with that Skids redeco had. Finally found the thing by chance, being sold on it's own, second hand in like 2022 or something, and I still love it, super glad to have it now
That 3-pack with rollbar and Vehicon was an Asian exclusive
oh it was?? well either way- the Evasion Mode deco that came with that one, the Japan version turned up to an 11 and basically perfected@@skybite
@@Mystic2760 wish it was easy to obtain
This is my favorite optimus toy, so fun to transform! He proudly sits on my desk along with aoe bumble bee and aoe crosshairs lol
i wanted this version of prime but I can't find cheaper sellers
I've always wanted this guy ever since he came out. I saw it at a store back in 2014 but sadly my mom didn't let me get it. I hope I can get my hands on him one day cause I've always thought he's really cool
you can always get a KO, I've seen a few of them for quite cheap
Me personally, I prefer the modernized truck mode. While I love G1 Prime a lot, the movie’s vehicle design was unique like no other Optimus. (It doesn’t help when Hasbro has chosen to jam G1 OP down our throats recently)
I really hope we get an SS version because I love this look
i still have mine. and as for the legs why change whats not broken? keep them for future optimus prime figures i say. if it works keep them i say.
My Favourite Optimus Prime Toy!
(However, I lost the toy when I was little and I don't know where it is?)
as much as I dislike AOE I love this design for Optimus Prime. I hope they release the Studio Series version soon.
Why would they retire the use of the evasion mode mold? There's nothing wrong with the mold so why would they bother to make another new one?
My evasion mode Optimus Prime’s arm broke in that spot
I want to add to my comment that evasion mode Optimus actually sorta transform Like the movie because in the movie, you can see his head pop out the front just like invasion mode
Has bro will sill use the evasion mode led for the new evasion mode optimus prime
10 years of AoE damn i feel old
Yeah me too. I feel this is around the time when I stopped following and buying these things regularly, with the tan coloured version of this exact toy (I think he came packaged with a blue crankcase repaint) being the last thing I bought before losing interest. They're both still on display, but after that I've only bought a few randomly through the years. 10 years is a long time, but maybe it doesn't feel like it.
i personally wanna see a G1-ified Bayverse where they stick with the 2007-2011 cars but the robots look like the G1 cartoon like what the Legacy line did
As if G1 wasn't overused at this point.
3:10 on my copy it loosened over time
I got this for a buck at a thrift store. Very happy with my purchase. One of his chest things broke off tho so that side looks funny with super glue. Still works tho
I've always wanted this figure especially the takara repaint
Highly recommend the Movie The Best version 👍👍
me and a friend actually came up with a toy line where to would be bayverse robot mode with the g1 alt mode
I had no idea there was a Powermaster Optimus Prime upgrade kit for this toy, that looks sick
One of my favs 👌
The 10 year old AOE Voyager Evasion Mode Optimus Prime
im planning to get aoyi mech's version of this mold since it's the upscaled version of takara bumblebee legendary optimus prime except it has flames and additional bits of transformation which is why it looks cool to me
If Hasbro used this mold as a concept g1 evasion Optimus Prime I wouldn’t mind or even use for the regular evasion mode
I still have this same toy from way back in 2014
I loved how he looked all in all and I felt like he lacked silver paint (I get the vibe theys tryna go for here)
This is my second favorite Bayverse Prime figure, and it's second banana only to The King of Fighters, the Battle Blade mold. It was a ballsy play on Hasbro's part to include the shotgun from DotM Megatron, not knowing who would've actually HAD the old DotM MechTech Voyager figure to begin with.
Between how badly they fumbled the ball on SS91 AoE Galvatron's truck mode and the thrown interception that was every dumb design decision that went into the back half of SS102 RotB Optimus Prime's truck mode, Hasbro should just simply do a repainted reissue of AoE Evasion Mode Optimus Prime for Studio Series. Would that scale correctly? No, but that went out the window way back with SS14 Ironhide (and the fact that SS05/32/44 Optimus is just way too small). They did it with SS25 TLK Bumblebee, SS39 TLK Cogman, and SS79 AoE High Octane Bumblebee, sooo...they should just do that for Evasion Mode Optimus, TLK Voyager class Knight Optimus, & TLK Voyager class Megatron...
Bro mine broke
I love this thing
Like they made an Official Knockoff third-party figures😂
I think it's funny how this voyager optimus prime toy from a movie that now 11 years old still hold up to this day.
This is what Optimus should've looked like in the Bayverse! Just tweak the color separation & hes perfect! He should've stayed like this in the whole movie that was AOE. It wouldn't have made the movie any less weird or not-so-good, but it'd be an improvement, if at least a little. Maybe he could've stayed this way in the movie & instead of scanning the Western Star, he'd scan the Western Star or any other truck to just get the colors? Idk.
Also, they really should release a SS Evasion Mode Optimus, then rerelease it in Concept Series in G1 colors to reference this figure & BBM Legendary Optimus.
Knightverse Optimus is the best Live-action Optimus design ever, especially RotB, but this isn't a bad look for Optimus.
Prime honestly should have stayed this way from the 4th movie on… as much as I love the knight form, this form is so much better looking, and the figure itself laid the groundwork for the AMAZING SS38 which pays homage directly to this figures truck mode, and SS102 as well! I finally got this figure in my collection and it’s cool to finally have the figure that set the stage for all G1 style movie primes going forwards.
To anyone with this figure, if you’re struggling with the loose arm, I recommend putting a little superglue around the back of the elbow where the Truck mode window is. Hope this helps!
If hasbro in the future mixed this figure with the HFTD voyager prime figure to make a new bayverse Optimus figure it would literally be perfect.
Also with the new leaks of a leader SS aoe prime figure has got me really excited, for a new figure to replace that 2017 figure. It worked for the time but is very outdated and is literally a shellformer.
Literally one of only figures I impulse bought from this movie line. Still a solid and fun voyager that is still subjectively better than any of the SS Bayverse primes. Always liked the missile firing shotgun accessory though never like how stupidly Prime holds it. That Power Master prime upgrade is the most random thing ever for a Bayverse Prime but owning the original Power master Prime and I think Apex armor or whatever it was can definitely see where the inspiration came from.
I highly recommend you go for the Movie The Best version - to me it is the best (lol) version of the mold. According to TFWiki it suffers from mold degredation but on my copy everything is fine.
The Rusty Ver. Optimus Prime from Takara is also very nice - in truck mode at least. The robot is quite a letdown, but the way they handled the busted and rusted up deco sure is something to behold, it almost looks like they printed everything onto the truck mode parts. If you prefer more color, go for the one from the Breakout Battle set.
I can’t wait to see third party company TMT’s take on this guy. I know their bumblebee movie B-127 was awesome and they have the renders of this guy already
Also available in cookies & creme, new chrome trim, and G.1.
I somehow ended up with a chromed version of Evasion Mode Prime. It 's the same figure and looks exactly like this but the silver parts are chromed. It came in a two pack with a gold Grimlock.
Bro my cousin gave it to me and he lost the gun, and like a year later I dropped it accidentally somehow, the wheel snapped off clean💀💀💀
And y’all remember that Counter656 video of this Prime fig and menasor?!
While I never got rid of my Evasion Mode Prime, it's still in storage, and I have never broken it, however, my copy has the loose left elbow. It's still a great toy, though.
Evasion Mode Optimus looks better with the toyhax stickers, especially for alt mode.
You should say
"This video Is for Adult Collectors bc this figure and this film will have 10 years in a few months"
While I like the Knight (AoE and TlK) design for Prime, he should’ve stayed the Peterbilt in all the movies.
I actually owned 2 versions of this figure. The original copy has the issue in the video where the portion when you flip the arms in/ out did break for my 1st copy but I remember 1 year after I got the Autobots united pack and it has a variant of evasion Prime but it has the mask on similar to the Bee movie leader class but without the swappable head and there is much more silver pain apps on the figure which despite not being film accurate i adored as a kid and adored back then and I highly recommend getting the pack since you get the main cast of AOE.
The parts holding the arms on mine are not broke, but one side is warped, which does not effect the robot mode but means it does not transform properly sadly, it fights back and does not peg in properly in the end. Other than that and an extraordinary loose elbow I have had fun with it and it was my definitive movie prime til I got SS 32. I got this guy 2nd hand which will explain some of the issues. Also the odd choice on the clear light piping over the blue always baffled me.
Idc what any Geewunner says, THIS is how he should've looked like in the Bumblebee movie
Hot Take: I always thought this mold was kinda ugly, til that anniversary figure and the upscaled third party versions came out
I don’t think the face is actually skinny. It looks skinny because the grills are unpainted, i painted mine and it looks much better.
I have the same toy except its right arm is broken, its left front wheel broke, its head missing, and its gun all scratched.
I wouldn’t call it a blend between G1 and the Bayverse it’s more like Bayverse prime as a cab over engine truck
The right elbow on my toy was super loose. I used super glow , it didn’t help , now the elbow is permanently stuck .
If you would like, I have my dotm voyager megatron available, I’m willing to lend him out so you can review it.
I had the weijiang upscaled black apple evasion prime. I believe that was his first design, before all things went haywire a few years ago and the person got into a bit of legal problem
I have the Takara version of this that actually has silver rims & flames painted on Optimus' shoulder pads.
I've got this guy but his front wheels and right chest plate have broken off
Yo, how many times are they going to reissue Optimus Prime? It's like he has an infinite number of editions lately.
please do a beiwai Optimus prime toy that’s in white and blue color scheme please I beg you I want to see a video of you reviewing it
Could one of the SS Bayverse Optimus heads fit onto Evasion Mode? Would it be tight or loose?
i had this figure and the chest broke(the grill) cuz it was really weak plastic i barely got 12 hours of play with it before it brooe
My evolution version, the one that came with the classic voyager, also has stiff legs, but also some stress marks on the hinges with the front wheels, so I don't transform him as often
We need a new studio series version, or two, one should be the rust, probs main release and then a buzzworthy, with these colours albeit a bit darker
One of the molds i need in my collection.
I remember having this as a kid
it was fairly decent from what I remember
There was a oversized version of evasion mode prime that looks like the cgi prime from the 1st bayverse movie
I really love age of extinction it was my first transformers live action movie my uncle to me to see it in the theater in the mall and I miss out on the first 3 because I was really young and am glad to see the first live action tf movie in theaters for its 15 anniversary and again age of extinction is still the best movie
It is really strange that he is intended to have gorilla arms because the forarms are sculpted to be like normal elbows
I think you got the Optimus prime I was going to buy yesterday well enjoy it
Loved prime was busted in the film but all he had to do was scan and reformat and all his problems were fixed
When will you review reissue skorponok he's very interesting to me I'm picking him up soon
Glad you finally got him! Definitely needs an SS remake!
i know alot of g1 fans would have been happy if this was the main bay verse prime design
Does anyone know where I can buy on without getting robbed of my money like on eBay
That Toy Guy, speaking of TF LA, will you be going ?
Hey, can you do a review on the fake version of the studio series is revenge of the fallen Megatron
I remember the takara tommy variants with rust or the ones with the nemesis prime paint job.
There's also a Fans Want It Jetwing upgrade kit for this.
SS Gamer Optimus kinda does the foot flip thing too now that I think about it.
I had a Nemesis Prime repaint of this and one of the legs and one of the arms broke
Is it just me or does anyone else absolutely hate the feet fold up design for truck?
This looks better in any of the rusty versions.
The last 2 micheal bay movies kinda sucked but they had some sick toys back then
If you want to find out what the chest plate is made of you can tap it on your teeth, metal feels a lot different to plastic.
They should have stocked with the 2007 to 2011 design
I just pulled him out of storage today, then I see you post a video about it an hour later lol what are the odds
Got him with the dx9 god ginrai upgrade kit. He is awesome
