Video Review of the Transformers 3 Dark of the Moon (DOTM); Leader Class Sentinel Prime 

This really doesn’t feel like ten years. It feels like yesterday when I saw this.

I remember buying this after watching the movie when I was 5 in 2011

RIP to the actor who played him

Judging from what I remember from the movie, Sentinel and Optimus are roughly the same height in robot mode...

Man, I would LOVE to have this figure! Sentinel Prime is one of my all time favorite villains in Transformers, (Even though I was upset when he murdered Ironhide), and this figure does him justice!

I wished we got his rust cannon but I guess not. TO THE MODMOBILE!!!

Hearing about Leonard Nimoy's death made me think of Sentinel Prime, and thinking of Sentinel Prime made me watch this review again. Optibotimus, hang on to Sentinel Prime in Mr. Nimoy's memory.

"let's get this guy open, and see how cool he actually is..." AWW YEEEEE

I have all of the DotM Leader Class figures. And I have to say that Sentinel is the least fun to transform. Particularly into this vehicle mode. Like you said, it is a cluster flack of panels that demand absolute perfect alignment or else the whole thing doesn't work. Bare in mind that I admire what they tried to do, taking a robot that essentially turns into a brick on wheels and doing everything they could to keep him from being a "shell-former". But By the Matrix I couldn't imagine all of the pissed off parents who had to master that finger breaking rubix cube when they bought this "toy" for their little kid. Figures like this are probably the reason that Hasbro has gone for the whole "so simple the instructions are on the back of the box" approach for their Robots in Disguise line.

We need an studio series of Sentinel Prime

Thanks for being part of my childhood.

"Let's get this guy open, and see how cool he actually is.." JEEZ FINALLY, IT TOOK FOREVER

R.I.P Leonard Nimoy

Finally gonna get him on Thursday. Can't wait. He looks so awesome, and your reviews have helped me get a figure, and be able to transform them almost immediately. Also, I like the fact that you're probably the only reliable reviewer, considering you are the only one I know of who shows all the modes and how to get it into that mode.

The voice just made me laugh. "Eeh em Sehntenil Prehm!"

Another great review, love the way you do both transformations. Your the best, keep up the great work! :)

r.I.p ironhide

The fact you didn't get the chest part all together is so anoyying 😭

this review really helped with my transformation to vehicle mode. for the life of me i couldn't get things to tab in to their proper places. now transforming him is no problem! thanks optibotimus!

13:19 Great Sonic Impression. "MAH BAD."

THIS IS SO HARD TO TRANSFORM.

02:58 - 03:07 Huh, so that's why I've never seen one before in my whole life.

Oh man, I got this for Christmas when I was a kid... one of the best things I got

You helped me a lot Transformers transforming them into the car mode

Good character, good figure. But the bitch killed Ironhide.

aha! thanos ripped off sentinel prime's double bladed sword

Just got him a few weeks ago and I found your video extremely helpful on the transformation

These are figures we’ll never get again.

This is why we didn’t get a good Optimus for dotm

The only thing i don't like about him is that he killed one of my favorite characters, Ironhide... WAAAAAAAAAA

"And Sentinel Prime is ready ah to slash people." LOL!!!

I really like your review. Your really take your time reviewing the toys. Good job, I'm subscribing. Keep the good work!

Sentinel Prime Your figure and the way you transform to vehicle mode!!!

He's lucky he didn't have his gun which he killed iron hide with......but he had the sword he used to break Optimus's hand

great info and assembly. awesome dude.

you know when you have had a bad day and than you watch you videos it makes you feel a lot better. :D

Ummm.... mr.optibotimus? Sentinel Prime's chest parts can be tabbed more you did. Side windows can enter to more deeper chest. And the under red parts must be attached more than you did. I have the leader Sentinel Prime. Please understand my ask. Thank you.

Where to get those kind of transformers toys now days

O my god thank you so so much for your vid I was getting so mad trying to read the instructions, followed your vid job done keep up the good work.

I always try to get by transforming the toys by the directions before I resort to coming here to watch how it's done, but this guy gave me a little trouble in the legs and arms area when transforming him into vehicle mode and I just could tell what it wanted me to do. Thanks as always for the great reviews Optimbotimus!

It turns out sentinel was right i wish he didn't fail and he didin't kill ironhide.

My fingers hurt from transforming him into his fire truck mode, it's probably mine but a lot of joints are reaaaally tight, I'm scarce to break it and the stress marks in some places have me not wanting to turn him back and forth for long

your reviews are always the best !! i picked this guy and he is awesome !!

great review as always

damn! he is extremely hard to transform!

in my transformers collection sentinel prime is the best toys i have.. ;-)

Awesome, buying this soon

question in vehicle mode the side panels wont stay tabbed in?? did i get a crap one or am i doing something wrong?

Man I love sentinal prime he's so bad ass

where did you get it

Have you noticed a small panel that folds out below the wheels in robot mode on his legs? The panel on each leg folds open and covers up a hole in his leg as well as tabs in onto the back of the leg. I really liked that touch, and it really makes a difference.

(Subscribed) dude! u rock!! how awesome you're showing us how to transform it back!! thanks!!! :D

ROTF transformers line is best in my opinion

Sentinel prime is a legendary autobot NO HE'S A TRADER!!!!

Idk why but i cut the stupid backpack on the figures cuase i know i dont touch my display pieces unless i clean them

I got one in a car boot sale. The grey panel on the top not included. So complex. Broken. Still loving it.

Do you know emgo 316

Sentinel Prime is a piece of shit love the toy though.

Only in the movie did "Sentinel Prime" mentor Optimus Prime. In the show, there really wasn't any characters named "Sentinel Prime". He was actually a concept from Micheal Bay who wanted to pluck some heart strings with "An old wise father figure to Optimus who would be emotionally hurt at the betrayal" type deal. Now there was eventually named a character Sentinel Major, however this character never had any interaction with Optimus that I know of and obtained the matrix by other means.

Wow how that windshield disappears is really innovative

This is what happened to sentinal prime 👱=optimus 😃=sentinal 😃🔫👱

can i have some of ur Transformers :D plz

Absolutely fantastic figure. Aside from it falling down all the time, I wouldn't change anything about it.

I love this toy. It looks awesome! He's my favorite. It has awesome weapon storage.

"Now that he's returned his betrayal of the Autobots and the death of Ironhide is assured!"

I just got this figure, I love it, and if I didn't see this video before hand I wouldn't even know about this figure, I just wanna say thanks for making this video :)

Optibotimus: Dark of the moon is not as advanced as they used to be Sentinel Prime: hold my beer

My semtinel has the foreign sound hip that just says "sentinel prime" and yet I live in the uk. Is my one a factory error variant? Is it legal reasons? Or did they just ship the foreign one over to the uk by mistake?

@optibotimus I can respect where you are coming from, my brother is watching your review as I type this out and because of the few minutes I have heard, you have made the whole movie tolerable, and I thank you for that dude! I still feel Optimus took the easy way out and showed he is not any better than Megatron and Sentinel, imo. From what you explained from the book, I really do wish they added more to the movie. We sat for 2 and a half hours, we can make it through 3! Anyways great review!

Thank you for teaching me how to transform my fire truck

Optimus didn't kill Ironhide, he killed Sentinel & Megatron!

how did you get the roof snapped on as quickly i try and it takes a long time to do

I agree with opibotimus that weaponised vehicles don’t look ugly

i love your reviews man they have helped me tons and quite fun too. i wanted to ask if you knew where i could buy a shockwave

Ay man i love how you review the transformers keep it up and i hope you do a video on leader Bumblebee

Yea great vehical mode indeed! the feet got me abit angry lol thanks for the video!

move his ankles one click forward. he stands perfect. also transform your wheels on the leg and back cape properly in robot form it helps. I love this toy... its an absolute marvel in toy engineering... the fact that it hides all those panels, has weapons storage and turns into near perfect representations of his vehicle and robot mode is just astonishing.

I gotta cop this again

You're so awesome man, seriously.

got this as a present last year to go with my G1 collection. (i know, i know but my parents do try lol) i have to agree with the feet being such a pain when changing to vehicle mode. my only real problem with the whole thing tbh so overal happy with how it is.

I'm just going to say this; I've had this robot for a VERY long time, I don't even remember buying it, but my brothers lost a few pieces (The Shield, Sword, and the part where it is supposed to cover the legs in vehicle form), I was wondering if I could be able to replace those parts. Do you have any thoughts on that?

@optibotimus i bought Sentinel prime, but on his Right side (in vehicle mode), i cant make the plate that connects to the windo and the to little parts,connect to it. Why not? is it because the battery plate, might be in the way?

awesome review of a great figure, one point I'll add, if you do not mind not bothering with the electronics, just take the batteries out and his backpack is no longer a problem to posing him for balance.

love your videos

Awesome Reviews :)

@Optibotimus, what are the dark grey things that come with him. some people say they are hand cuffs but dout it

For the size comparison how did you get the gun for leader class optimus?

thx man for helping me out

@optibotmus Let me say that very honestly for the first time i saw you making a toy review of the transformers revenge of the fallen leader optimus prime i thought you were wasting a lot of time in transforming these things but now i really realize after i have bought sentinel prime how much you put great effort into making these reviews which helped me a lot in transforming mine and gave me nice hints, so honestly i want to give you a very big THANKS for your amazing effort & keep it up :))

those fire trucks are also use for riots when they spray them with the front hose

I have this Sentinel Prime toy. I thought he looks good and scales well with leader class Optimus Prime. If I may ask, where did you get this voyager version from? I've been trying to find it for a few years.

hey i was just wondering, are the voice chips different in the american releases? im from toronto and my guy doesnt say i am sentinel prime, he just says "sentinel prime" also he doesnt say "glad to see u alive optimus" and where is the all spark! he just makes shooting sounds. i tried with the mech tech too and still nothing, my friend has him too same thing. any insight would be appericated! great vid btw

by any chances do you know if there is a package of only mechtech weapons in it? Please respond

I have Sentinel since 2011 and only now watching your video I realize that you can move the wheels on the legs and the mirrors can be folded on the chest for accuracy. Guess I should read the instructions more often😂

Absolutely great review as always man. Finally got around to getting this figure & while I agree he is fantastic (there i said it for ya lol) quick question- have you had any issues with stress marks anywhere on yours? Mine are very subtle but they are there, & I just bought him earlier today!

And now we are getting a Studio Series Sentinel Prime.

I like to tab the chest together more in robot mode to make it more uniform and hide them ugly grey window hinges. There's so much folding going on you can really align it to personal preference.

I used to watch ur videos when I was young :)

He did not just mentor Optimus Prime; he also mentored Megatron as well

Right next to the 316 in truck mode there is a panel that opens to help hide the gap in the back of the leg.
