And I was hoping to skip out on the second version of Prime.

That chest detailing is now forcing me to buy it...

Same here. Or better yet, these better be premiums from the start.

Clear windows, mirrors on the truck doors, very accurate; looks like the images from the movie website. Guess I'll be buying another movie OP.

I thought and hoped they'd release a more accurate version. I mean, they HAVE to have Primes on sale around the release time and following xmas period, but a re-release doesn't make sense.

well, i was hoping ROTF Prime would just be the original with some remoldings(like what they're doing with Bumblebee). unfortunatly, i gather from the description that he will be able to combine with Jetfire, and therefore, i'm going to end up buying this guy. this is a bunch of slag. i shouldnt buy him, but i will.

I'm trying to figure out what those 2 pipes are above his head. They're too big to be his exhausts, and they can't be guns if he's supposed to be more movie accurate- this is assuming he's staying essentially the same in the movie.

The cut-off image in the upper left seems to show his arm and energy blade. The main image doesn't really blow me away, I'll have to reserve judgment until I see more of him. Regardless, I'm buying this guy for sure.

Looks good, I'm sure I'll be buying it.

right onw my judgement isnt set yet on the buy until i see i see some full package shots of the fron or the back compared to premiume prime version only then i will decide if its a buy but the moving armor seems intersting to see on the figure.

i think he's got his arms sprad out, so his smoke stacks are pointing inwards, either that, or........................
I don't know. Could be part of Jetfire I geuss....

Stop with the goddamn gimmicks already. The figure sounds cool except for the truck sounds and that alive crap. Im sure ill be losing the batteries like the last one. Its very rare when hasbro makes sounds actually work with the figure. Most of the time they're out of place or just annoying. Cant wait to see the hole image.

From the looks of it one of primes mech alive gimmicks may be a flipping head gimmick similar to the first prime with his chest but I think the head flips out.

Cool, I thought they were just gonna repackage the first Movie prime and include some new gimmicks, but I guess not. Im looking forward to seeing him. The chest is pretty cool in that snapshot.

Two freakin swords??
Jeez....
But, whats the point if another totally awesome version of OP is come out in 2010 for TF3? Oh well, I'll probably buy it anyway....

Posted by Primus, Second-In-Command on January 3rd, 2009 @ 6:00am CST

well, if they come out with new molds for ratchet, ironhide, barricade and starscream, i'm really gonna have to stick to my money. hopefully, i can't get the new molds and...

Bumblebee - Cliffjumper
Optimus - Nemesis Prime
Ratchet - ???
Barricade - ???

all i know is that from now until june-july, i'm not spending ANY money AT ALL!!!

Looks sweet! I hope the mech gimmick is not some animatronic junk that limits articulation. I also hope the speech will be Peter Cullen and not some dickwat at Hasbro pretending to be him.

Posted by barricade2218 on January 3rd, 2009 @ 7:45am CST

I like the rest, was hoping for minor changes only that wouldn't warrant buying him and two or three repaints down the road. I will most likely get him, just hoping it is a premium voyager or leader size.

Posted by Sowndwave76 on January 3rd, 2009 @ 9:46am CST

Well, I've been telling myself that I wasn't going to buy ANY of this new movie line,
and just focus on the G1 Classics in Universe...

But since I only wanted/have the Nightwatch version of Prime...
I may have to get this one.
We'll see once I can get a closer look in store.
