I saw this figure at Toys R Us last week, but seeing the 3,000 Peso price tag made me put it down and made me want to rethink my life. For a mainline toy, I thought it'd be significantly cheaper since it's more "kid-friendly." But at that price, I feel like the Studio Series version will be way better overall.
@@sigerlion8608 Hasbro has ran back studio series 38 Optimus on their website like 3 times lately at $34.99 , this thing here is like $1 less than that Lol...for a friggin mainline
Maybe the shrinkage paves the way for them to make a movie Unicron... Actually, it kind of makes sense for them to rescale the deluxe and voyager figures because it will be easier for them to design combiners and titan class figures. The build of this RotB Optimus is quite good for a Hasbro figure. The lack of paint apps sucks tho. This only means I will have to wait the premium edition repaint to come out.
@@speeddemon5339 im from the states,, I haven't seen one Target/Walmart that has Prime/Primal mainline for just $24.99 ...I haven't seen anyone's toy hunt videos that have them at that price either, the instant complaint from everyone was the ridiculous price point for a mainline
I picked it up today. It is kinda small, and i def wish it had more paint, but as expensive as the studio series primes have become it isnt a terrible stand in, I have the unofficial ss 5 ko star leader and it is fantastic. Def gotta pick up the baiwai ironhide.
I'm honestly over collecting any more optimus prime figures outside of a studio series 86 optimus and megatron. Otherwise yeah no thank you, same with bumblebee!
Muy buena figura tiene una bonita transformación pero se ve delgado buena articulación le falta pintura en las piernas además es una opción para que no tiene su versión studio series 38 su tamaño está pareciendo un deluxe en modo camión Seve muy bien me gusta está figura
I paid almost 40 us dollars for legacy twincast at Walmart. I simply can not afford to collect like I used to. I used to buy everything that came out. Now it's specific ones. Also the shrinkage with the figures plus rise in cost? I'm all set. I'll keep watching your reviews though. I enjoy them
Great review. Looks good but for the price and size it think it's not worth it. Much better to wait for the KO imho. Speaking of KOs. The 2 primes is KO comparing it @7:50 . Did you get another Baiwei Prime? or just fix the one that got broken?
It's mainline but a good figure and good articulation. But bit disappointed with the voyager scale. Why voyager size is getting smaller??😕 I really hope studio series maintain the voyager size
hahaha this is a good figure bro, but if you just want one Optimus Prime figure from the movie, I suggest you get the Buzzworthy Bumblebee Studio Series 102 RotB version of Optimus Prime
@@chefatron I was thinking the same after I saw your review for it tbh haha. thank you and was wondering if you were getting the new jabiim obi wan, no way home 3 pack, or any of the new black series figures revealed for the next few months thank you
@@jordansingh2388 no prob I did get jabiim owk and the spidey 3-pack but sold them off immediately without opening or reviewing them... buyers regret I suppose
8:20 😂what’s funny is that this is the exactly size in the actual movie especially him with bumblebee while the new studio series version is too big and I actually like primal being almost or the exact same height/size as prime because he’s looks weird being shorter than prime like I get that he’s a gorilla but that’s my opinion.
we'll see... but the studio series is already so good, I doubt they'll still do a mainline leader... they've got the kiddie versions of scourge though...
Its sad that the main line figure is more pricey than the studio series, i got the cheetor and bee studio series much cheeper and much better than the main line, the ss bee is 1500 than the mainline bee 1900 but ss bee is much better and dont get started at the cheetor comparison hahahahahaha seeing that prime broke my heart that price point is way way off specially for mainline figure but i really want this fig
too tiny, too grey, too bad proportions, and we´ll see about movie accuracy... he had that stupid hand-turns-into-cannon in the teaser trailer, so already a fail in there. Not that I like the transforming hands, mind you, but... trash. 10€ would be a fair price.
