HAHAHAH...... Orion Pax starts holding the Matrix and his chest starts glowing with radiant blue light. *Wind Blows on Cybertron for 4 episodes while he screams with hair metal in the background* Voice: Arise Optimus Prime. Orion Pax: .....Primus? *lightning reverberates around his body as the ground craters beneath his new form.
You know, a few years ago, I had an idea where Optimus Prime was kind of an alter ego to Orian Pax, as in no one knew the two were the same person. With this toy, it is totally possible to pull that off.
Personally I could still see going either way. The trailer and truck mode on Earthrise is better, but this one's evolution gimmick makes it much more worth leader than Eartheise imo.
Essentially, this is a retooling of Powermaster Optimus Prime, the trailer becomes the larger body/armor for the cab portion. It's also similar to how Saber transforms and combines with his V-Jet to form his powered-up Star Saber mode.
I bought this because of your review. I love the mix of Orion evolving into Optimus. Also the scale works beside my Voyager Delux line up and my Giga Snarl and Siege Jetfire Commander Class.....I often turn to your reviews to get an understanding of what I want for my personal line up....You and Toys are Russ for G1 love.
I just want to tell you Emgo that I really appreciate your humor and the fact that you do a lot of comparisons. I closely followed this figures release, but I did not know that the Orion Pax part was basically a Voyager. That is amazing!!! Also, I'm glad that you compared him to Combiner Wars Megatron! Merry Christmas!
An Optimus Prime figure that not only comes with the trailer but lets you do something with it, I likie. Reminds me of the Ultra Magnus figure you reviewed, the one with Minamus.
One year ago, we all know that you lost someone important that night during Christmas eve, here's a comment to remember about it Rip lorie's dad /emgo's father in law Till all are one
Personally, I like this more than MP-10. It's only slightly less tall than MP-10, but still nearly Masterpiece size regardless, and it comes with Orion Pax. The backpack is weird for sure, but I see that I can just mistransform Orion Pax slightly to cover it, and that makes me more than happy.
Yeah, what's up with that anyway. I was looking at Siege Megatron next to Animated Megatron, and I just went "Wait... THIS is leader class?" The engineering, size, heft and articulation isn't what it should be.
This is my favorite Classics Optimus Prime, which is saying something for me, as I've never been a big fan of the classic look. I have this guy and Generations Rodimus and Generations Optimus Primal on my christmas list so I hope i get them. I think they were very creative on how they did these toys and Would be very happy to support more figures like this!
I feel like the trailer itself looks really cool and IMO, this look for Optimus prime with all the bulk and sliver panelling is fantastic, it’s legitimately my favourite look for him I’ve seen yet
Idk why it reminded you of cybertron leader cause the front of the truck splits into the arms and yes the legs are kinda accurate, but lets be honest most optimus prime toys are like that. And for the head, instead of popping out with a switch, orion pax's head flips on from the back of the truck
I absolutely love this figure! I don't have the budget to get mp-10. The $500 he's going for now is beyond all comprehensible reason for me. He looks great with repainted blue fists, yellow arrows, new toe paint, painted headlights, new logo, silver windshield trim and a custom matrix mod I did.
Yay! Best Hasbro Prime since their MP 10 repaint! Thank you Emgo for being a great reviewer! I love everything you do! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!
Despite the truck mode with its flaws I still love this take on orion pax to Optimus Prime . I plan to get another and shelve the first one since I customize it. Emgo I look forward to your shows and reviews...I'm hooked!!! :)
10 months since I first saw this review, and after watching it again, I figured, you could actually store his guns in the back of his Optimus Prime mode, just plug the guns on the exposed Orion Pax hands seen in 17:48, maybe a homage to MP-10 where the folded rifle stores in back, but that's just me :)
19:20 shoot megatron in the face. Nice one 🤣👍 But yea the toy it really big! I didn’t expect it to be so huge! Im definitely buying it for my birthday 👍
Finally, after 11 years of the Classics Voyager Prime reigning supreme as THE CHUG Optimus to get, it's finally beaten by this wonderful Leader class. Decided to replace my AOE Evolution Classics Prime and my United Megatron with the CW Leader Megs and this, no regrets. And I guess with that crazy shoulder articulation you can even get this guy in the Gundam final shot pose. Amazing. Simply amazing. I can forgive this guy's faults, the old Classics Voyager wasn't perfect either.
Awesome review emgo! I usually watch a review before i buy a figure or a game. Just to get the pros and cons. This video convinced me to buy this figure immediately! :)
XD hot rod that and the whole ending "Ooooooooohhhh" "W-why what why did you do that" "Oh it just a glitch. I don't fell like getting it fixed, that and I don't want to" ~ Alpha Trion
Emgo, I believe Hasbro was going for the vintage G1 style for the stickers on the bigger TR & POTP figures. That's what comes to mind when I see the off centered cut look & application. But,who knows.
@@emgo316 Ah... Ok, gotcha. I've seen other figures in the stores that I passed on with the same flaws or either the stickers weren't applied straight is why I took the wild guess. Lol!!! But overall,good to hear from you. I really dig what you do on here, Brother.
For me emogo it's cool when I found your channel again I subscribed early and i saw big ad toy store and there toys are amazing thank you for the website 😀👍
I was five when i dreamed of owning the original g1 transformers opt prime. As i grew up and older that dream faded away. It wasnt priority and i had limited finances with a whole other things that pre occupy and a hobby that was enough to cheer me daily. 28 years later, i saw this because i passed by the toy section of walmart and my goodness does this remind me of that forgotten dream. Its no original g1 opt prime, but the resemblance is very awesome and it really twisted my arm when orion pax came with it too. Tossed it in the shoppig cart A.S.A.P.
With a little modification, one can modify this Prime into Ginrai. Just a change in the Orion Pax chestplate and adding the helmet for Super Ginrai in place of the Orion Pax head is a good starting point, and adding some hardpoints for God Bomber in the feet should help as well.
19:34: Thanks for the size comparison between two recent Leader Class Primes. I wasn't sure which Prime to choose. The new Prime seems leaner, slightly taller, and less cumbersome. His vehicle mode is sub-par, yes, but my Beast Hunters Prime also has a sub-par truck mode, so I can overlook that. With all that said, Powermaster Prime is still a good choice, too, despite his big amounts of panels and kibble. I still wish that he'd be on shelves at discount stores where I live.
First I thought Optimus Prime is to gray in bot mode, but then I remembered "Transformers the Return of Optimus Prime Part 2" when he was all gray, so I imagine this is his appearance after unleashing the wisdom within the Matrix of Leadership. :D
Great hommage to the 80s. Best Optimus since the original.

Hey, my collector's card, that came with the toy, has an orange trim and a different symbol. It names him Optimus Quintus and says he: "Imparts great wisdom to new life."
I recently got this figure!! Orion Pax/Optimus Prime is really cool and it's a nice hats off to the original G1 Optimus Prime. The only sad part though is the Optimus Prime form his hands are Silver instead of blue...
The titan master have a great hinded feture If you flip the legs back over the head when it is in the figure to the formnt of the head you can have a duoble barrel gun on to of any titan master head
Always felt this mould lends itself better to the Nemesis Prime or Star Convoy retools as they're presented as super modes rather than 2 separate dudes.
Finally an Orion Pax that actually looks like the G1 cartoon.
Henry Thrun Nah he didn't transform in the G1 cartoon.
I’m happy we got a better one from legacy/generations
@@FunnyBurgr not better in the slightest, thank god this got a reissue, still the best pax yet, in bot mode anyway.
16:35 Almost in tears over how beautiful that headsculpt is. Suddenly I'm a kid watching the original cartoon again.
Orion Pax: *Fool, this isn't even my final form!*
T h i C C *the touch starts playing*

Just like an Ironman suit.
Kyle Langdon except everyone knew who Ironman was by the end of the first film
@@bedflopperstudios2191 There are other Ironman stories.
Kyle Langdon fair, but you never specified which one, so I was going off of the MCU.
Always wanted Optimus to use his trailer in his transformation.
I can honestly look past the bad truck mode because the engineering is impressive.
3 years later what do you think? Do you prefer this or the earthrise?
Personally I could still see going either way. The trailer and truck mode on Earthrise is better, but this one's evolution gimmick makes it much more worth leader than Eartheise imo.
@@griffinkimball2454 yeah, Earthrise Prime is a rip off, the trailer did nothing to warrant the leader price point.
I just got this from Target and I really like it but I’m curious will the trailer fit for the earthrise Optimus Prime
@@Widow-Maker2k23 wow! How much was it? Was it more than before I mean more than 6 years ago as I think as it should have!!
"Orion BackPax"

It's for the Transformers one movie I think

He makes a 'not so bad' substitute for MP-10 for those on a budget
Hell NO, I rather buy a used MP-10. LOL
I think that title now belongs to Siege Optimus Prime
Ian Romero-Gemmell agreed definitely one of the best g1 Optimus prime he looks awesome especially if you put the Toy Hax labels
Ian Romero-Gemmell now it belongs to earthrise
@@Spam_Raimi can I eat you?
Hot Rod has learned the true terrors of being the chosen one lol

The best G1:y Optimus Prime after mp10.

jgfjgfify nah that goes to siege prime
Earthrise: inhales
Ironthanos21 Gaming lmaoo
One year ago, we all know that you lost someone important that night during Christmas eve, here's a comment to remember about it
Rip lorie's dad /emgo's father in law
Till all are one
Rodimus Unicronus The sentiment is nice, but could you have worded that any worse?
Setlas ni tonday, till all are one
Rodimus Unicronus he is one with the spark
Gerardo Gonzalez check the qna video he posted last year, he mentioned it
Rodimus Unicronus I lost one of my four dogs just Saturday....
Personally, I like this more than MP-10. It's only slightly less tall than MP-10, but still nearly Masterpiece size regardless, and it comes with Orion Pax. The backpack is weird for sure, but I see that I can just mistransform Orion Pax slightly to cover it, and that makes me more than happy.
How
Great review! That truck is a mess though, Hasbro really didn’t think that through. Both bots are great!
and so, we finally learn why Alpha Trion keeps doing that.
edit: YOOOUUUNG warrior!
Yoooouuuuuuuu- oh something popped
He makes my leader class Earthrise Optimus look so small.
Yeah, what's up with that anyway. I was looking at Siege Megatron next to Animated Megatron, and I just went "Wait... THIS is leader class?" The engineering, size, heft and articulation isn't what it should be.
Brilliant vid emgo, can't wait for your reveiw of hun-gurr
Emgo your endings for the videos are awesome
This is my favorite Classics Optimus Prime, which is saying something for me, as I've never been a big fan of the classic look.

Wow Truck Mode Is So Small
**Transforms**
*HOLY JESUS HES FREAKIN HUGE*
Merry Christmas Emgo! It’s perfect that you reviewed him in Christmas.
I lost it when he put the matrix on hot rods body 🤣
I am here in 2024 because this figure was re-released on Hasbro Pulse and I ordered it!
He has A G1 look. So To All Are One Merry Christmas and have A Prime New Year.
It's B E A U T I F U L ! ! !
It's also *Prime time*
Optimus Prime mind if I give you a giant pizza bagel?
Optimus Prime Merry Christmas to my favorite Autobot!
Optimus Prime finally you haven’t ripped off someone’s head for Christmas
I agree
Budget MP10
And then Earthrise prime happened
@@funnychimp7738 And then Studio Series 86 happened. Budget mp 44.
I feel like the trailer itself looks really cool and IMO, this look for Optimus prime with all the bulk and sliver panelling is fantastic, it’s legitimately my favourite look for him I’ve seen yet
6:33 - Hot Rod doesn't want to let go of the Matrix. XD
The transformation to Orion Pax kinda reminds me of Cybertron Leader Optimus.
Idk why it reminded you of cybertron leader cause the front of the truck splits into the arms and yes the legs are kinda accurate, but lets be honest most optimus prime toys are like that. And for the head, instead of popping out with a switch, orion pax's head flips on from the back of the truck
Happy Holidays everyone!
adolhein Thanks and you too!
Happy holidays ;)
Unhappyb hellidays
And to you to
And to you to
Awesome review. I need to get this one. Merry Christmas everybody.
SoCal_Collector same to u to
I'm getting nemesis because I have too much Autobots.
Head sculpt appears to be based off of MP-10's head sculpt.
There it is. And merry xmas!
Great review brother!!! And a Very MERRY CHRISTMAS To you and your family...
I want this so much, and it's better than the Siege and Earthrise version, mainly since the trailer plays into the transformation.
I absolutely love this figure! I don't have the budget to get mp-10. The $500 he's going for now is beyond all comprehensible reason for me. He looks great with repainted blue fists, yellow arrows, new toe paint, painted headlights, new logo, silver windshield trim and a custom matrix mod I did.
6:25 had me rolling, laughing. Emgo, my man, you are too funny. ;D
Star saber would have been perfect in this line it’s a shame we didn’t get
Yay! Best Hasbro Prime since their MP 10 repaint! Thank you Emgo for being a great reviewer! I love everything you do! Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!

But yea the toy it really big! I didn’t expect it to be so huge! Im definitely buying it for my birthday 👍
This is the figure that brought me back into the fold. Purchased on my 43rd birthday. Last figure purchased before that was G1 Hotrod when I was 12.
It's the best looking prime from the prime trilogy, in my opinions
Your skit at the end killed me 🤣😂🤣
Yay!Prime Time!Merry Christmas,Emgo,the viewers,and whoever reads this comment!
15:01 Orion "IM SO EXCITED, IM LITERALLY LOSING MY HEAD"
Hasbro is improving with these figures.
You could use Orion Pax as an escape pod so if Optimus gets shot his mind would warp into Orion Pax and he would be saved
LOOOOVE YOUR REVIEWS BRO THANK YOU SO MUCH, since my wife "accidentally " threw out my instructions while cleaning!!! Again bravo🙏🏼👏👏👏👏
All these years later, and he's still one of my favorite Primes.
Finally, after 11 years of the Classics Voyager Prime reigning supreme as THE CHUG Optimus to get, it's finally beaten by this wonderful Leader class. Decided to replace my AOE Evolution Classics Prime and my United Megatron with the CW Leader Megs and this, no regrets.

Awesome review emgo! I usually watch a review before i buy a figure or a game. Just to get the pros and cons. This video convinced me to buy this figure immediately! :)
If i had the g1 prime it is precious for my collection of transformers figures
And funny combination of hot rod and the core of the matrix of leadership
Happy holidays, Emgo!!
Patiently waiting for him to become available online. Also happy holidays @Emgo316 !
Just bought mine today! I plan on leaving it in the box.....but I've said that about all mine & they are all loose now. Awesome review as always emgo.

crazy to think this is now outdated by siege and earthrise optimus prime
Er prime is a shitty retool of siege prime. This is better.
Orion Pax looks amazing, I can overlook the over compressed look in vehicle mode because you get both versions of Prime
This reminds me of G1 Magnus, Merry Christmas EmGo!
coming back to this video\channel after years feels good to be back
Having the matrix core as a head reminds me of the twelve from IDW’s Lost Light series when they visit the alternate dimension
Happy holidays and keep up the good work ego your great
God I can’t wait to get this guy
Ps
Love your videos
Keep up the great work!
Happy Holidays!
Your enthusiastic voice makes me happy ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Dang my boy back with the optimus and the autobots power of the primes😄😂😁😀
If you use Orion pax’s hand in combined mode you can have either an underslung cannon like g1 megatron or a shoulder mounted cannon like perceptor
Great piece! Had mine for years. Unfortunately my smoke stacks came off when I moved . Is there a way I can find a replacement?
Merry Christmas emgo. But he actually looks good for a hasbro figure
I just really like that orian pax

I found this guy at my local target before the Transformers One movie. Rereleased it apparently
Mascot: it’s that time again
Me:ITS PRIME TIMMMMMMEEEEEEEE
You know that a figure is good when one of it's components could be sold by itself.
The best part of this was, "dun nun nun dun nun nuh AAHH!!"
Me: Now you know where your trailer is right?
Prime: What?
Me: Never mind…
And 6:18 IS creepy!! Damn Hot Rod! DAMN…!!
I recently got this figure!! Orion Pax/Optimus Prime is really cool and it's a nice hats off to the original G1 Optimus Prime. The only sad part though is the Optimus Prime form his hands are Silver instead of blue...
The titan master have a great hinded feture
If you flip the legs back over the head when it is in the figure to the formnt of the head you can have a duoble barrel gun on to of any titan master head
Always felt this mould lends itself better to the Nemesis Prime or Star Convoy retools as they're presented as super modes rather than 2 separate dudes.
ya know, painted just right, that Matrix core could make for a nice Octopunch head
i totally expected Mascot to end the opening monologue by saying "It's that time again. It's Prime Time!"
