I had some low expectations for this because of initial pictures. But having him in hand, he's actually pretty good. I wish the feet articulation was a bit better, and he had more paint applied. I can say it's better for me than the original even if the old one had better engineering. And the accessories are good.
@@treclassified2438i believe he uses stolen figures and reviews them, way before they are released or even announced. This gives him an unfair adventage against other toy youtubers, who use legitemate copies for their reviews.
Played Transformers War for Cybertron when I was younger. My parents knew I was mature enough to play it. And I still love it years later. Got the toy and thank you for covering it
The old deluxe figures shouldn't like Bee and Cliffjumper come up to Prime shoulders, more to his waste instead. The scale is off. With Planet X, those two scales are fine with that Prime.
Message to Hasbro: You'll find incredible success in bringing High Moon back to make more of their Cybertron games. The developers had true passion for the characters and universe which is apparent in the writing, art style, and characterisation - and there's so much unused content that another 2 games could be made using it. There's concept art for a prequel game and hints toward a game based on the journey from Cybertron to Earth. Even cut mechanics like triple changers. These games were truly peak content and I've seen so much love from the community for them. It's a big gap in the market just waiting for something to be made. Hopefully these figures are only the beginning and you realise the potential they had, and continue to have a decade later. Bring back the High Moon Cybertron games ❤💜
This. I haven’t bought a Hasbro Transformers figure since the Age of Extinction movie line. As soon as these War For Cybertron figures were revealed, I immediately preordered all 3. It’d be wise to keep doing these designs.
Unfortunately High Moon was brought up by Activision Blizzard and was dissolved. That is why the poorly made third game where they tied it into the dark side of the moon movie, and had another company that has no idea and reused High Moon stuff to make a poorly designed filler game. I got it on the PS3 it is painful to play through and see how it kills the series. Should have been left alone after the second FOC, once High Moon was gone.
Hasbro can’t do anything with highmoon. High moon is owned by Activision, who dissolved the studio. People need to realize the games have nothing to do with Hasbro beyond the name.
I got this guy a couple days ago and I literally can’t stop playing with him. I’m still hoping they make some of the characters that were in the multiplayer. (scattershot, Demolishor, slipstream etc)
I think it's rarer to say that Fall Design > War design. At least, that's what I've seen online. I personally prefer the Fall design though. Something about it catches the eye more to me. Plus, it fits incredibly well with Prime in some of the best moments in the game (Metroplex killing Megatron and the duel on the Ark).
Got him yesterday since Hasbro decided to reissue the figure. Thankfully, the right hand on my unit isn’t loose so it’s not an issue for now. It’s my first ever Optimus and I was initially interested in the Deluxe TFOne but I felt like a weapon was missing. I would rather have a complete Optimus, both the Ion Blaster and Energon Axe. I’m glad I got it since I love the WfC/FoC designs. I look forward in getting the Legacy G1.
I found him at my local Gamestop with Barricade an these 2 figures look amazing that i can't wait for the reveal of Studio Series Gamer Edition Megatron
we really are spoiled when it comes to these voyagers. Inferno, Tarn, Cyclonus and Prime have been arguably some of the best voyagers we've ever gotten. they're just so good
Dude! Loved that intro!! Haven't even watched the rest of the video and had to say that this one is probably the best one on UA-cam!! Keep up the great work! And the "Posing Solo" was great too! Could you do a video with like a "Top Five Poses" for a few characters?? I've amassed a large collection and the only thing keeping them in the boxes is the thought of posing them on display.
I got into Transformers at a very young age, around the time when the first live-action movie released and those little Core Class toys were absolutely everywhere. It's been so long since I last played with a Transformer, but this figure right here rekindled my love for the toys. Such a banger figure, and I really like the posability, which you showcased here really well!
These game are peak Transformers media and I can't believe we're finally seeing these figures rereleased and some of those figures are gonna be released for the first time ❤️🥰
Got this figure recently alongside Barricade, I just started collecting this new line after realizing that they were producing them, starting with the Decepticon soldier. I haven't gotten figures since the Cybertron/Galaxy Force era, back when I was a kid. I absolutely loved the High Moon duology, and I can't wait to see how they improve upon the FOC Optimus design since this figure is just so neat.
i impulse preordered the figure because i was deep into the cybertron games after roadrustle's video on them when it was announced. glad to hear he's that good, can't wait to get him!
I absolutely have to pick this up! I mean I planned on picking it up anyway, but I’m even more excited now! His WFC design is in my top 3 favorite Prime designs so there was no way I was passing this one up. Also, great review man!
I'm honestly in love with this design. Haven't picked it up yet, but the High Moon games were like my first big Geewun media outside of the IDW comics, so I'm super super excited to have them back. I'm hoping sometime down the line they release some headswaps in different colour schemes, so we can recreate our multiplayer OCs. That'd be amazing.
This figure is amazing! i only have 2 issues with it. the arm is a little too skinny with the gun and it doesn't look like it transforms out of the arm maybe if there was red on the gun. also the battle axe is hideous but it is epic
I actually found one of these guys on my local Walmart for its original price!!! All the other stores that have it either sell it for higher or well (shipping 😅) Couldn't be happier
Inb4 Hasbro uses Gamer Edition as an excuse to reissue older figures that were hard to get the first go around but with that crappy “toon shading” in order to create Devastation figures Not saying they’d be bad, just that the cel-shading would look weird
Great figure. If you twist my arm, i'd say the designers could have made the energron axe fold into a rectagle to cover the fists in the rear panel. Weapon storage and coverup.
Using the slider as a joint is a great idea if you want some dual handed axe poses. He can even do an overhead swin if you position it right. P.S. I purposely put off this video to avoid spoilers, still struggling with his transformation thought.
as a testament to how awesome he is to pose, i recreated the box art pose with the help of a figma stand, and i really felt like i was 8 again (i was 8 when War for Cybertron came out)

The chest sliders were bugging me a bit too much so I thickened the shaft piece and tabs with a bit of superglue. It seems to have solidified it well
Fun fact: if you scale it with the older figs it scales pretty awesome!

@@jasonwalker9963 I think this guy scales well with FOC Jazz, Starscream, Kickback, and old WFC Deluxe Soundwave.

Great review as always. The Jeff Dunham reference is gold and why I’m subscribed to chis channel for awhile now 😅
I got this guy a couple days ago and I literally can’t stop playing with him. I’m still hoping they make some of the characters that were in the multiplayer. (scattershot, Demolishor, slipstream etc)
Am I the only one who thinks the War design is better then the Fall design?
It’s certainly got a better chest design, bare minimum.
I think it's rarer to say that Fall Design > War design. At least, that's what I've seen online. I personally prefer the Fall design though. Something about it catches the eye more to me. Plus, it fits incredibly well with Prime in some of the best moments in the game (Metroplex killing Megatron and the duel on the Ark).
Depends on the character. Optimus yes, Megatron no.
@@bamaboyz8978 Megatron definitely looks better in war, it’s not even close
that's a pretty popular opinion
that transition was amazing. I never reacted to a video like this one.
Glad to see the games get attention. Optimus will go well next to the Megatron confirmed for later this year
0:09 talk about clean transitions
Cleanest intro transition for a toy review I have ever seen. 10000/10
That was so clean 0:28
“Marvel has the best transition”
ThatToyGuy:
I was able to find this guy at Gamestop a week ago, and I have to say, he's probably my favorite figure that I have gotten this year so far
Layer!
@@KingCujoBlue Local internet user discovers “opinions.”
Someone on the TF subreddit called him "Gamerus Prime" and i cant let go of the thought. I will now call him that.

The Takara United version of this Prime is still a personal fave in my collection. Hope this gets an upgraded deco soon, waiting on that one.
It's always great to see the High Moon games get the recognition they deserve.
we really are spoiled when it comes to these voyagers. Inferno, Tarn, Cyclonus and Prime have been arguably some of the best voyagers we've ever gotten. they're just so good
That transition… GYATT
That intro transition was something else ❤️
I hope we're getting a Leader class FOC Prime at some point. The FOC toyline was a bit of a hit or miss in the first place so it would be awesome.
0:07 - 0:15 bro made a really clean transition

CLEANEST transition i’ve seen in a while
These game are peak Transformers media and I can't believe we're finally seeing these figures rereleased and some of those figures are gonna be released for the first time ❤️🥰
They should make Gamer Edition Angry Birds Transformers
Yes. They should
I too have had this guy as a permanent desk toy, I forget that he’s a studio series figure sometimes
Upgrade kits for this figure are gonna be WILD I just know it 😳
I just finished replaying War and Fall. they are genuine masterpieces.

MAAAAAAN that transition
I'll be honest, the puppeteer mode sold me on this more than anything else 😂
i impulse preordered the figure because i was deep into the cybertron games after roadrustle's video on them when it was announced. glad to hear he's that good, can't wait to get him!
Bro that opening transition was cleeeaaannnn
Bro took the time to find a black cape to replicate literally five seconds of a scene in foc
That transition in the beginning was epic
Dude you're the reason I bought this kit. This channel my fav now. Why? He know how to pose a kit even when reviewing it!
So glad I preordered this guy the day he first went up, he’s absolutely incredible
You don't think we wouldn't notice that sick ass transition?
Bro just dropped the hardest Optimus Prime edit and thought we would not notice!!💯🔥🗣️🗣️
I can’t wait to get this and the megatron
That translation though! I love it
That intro was smooth as hell
This has become my favorite Optimus Prime action figure for 2023, so far.
Bro that opening fron game to figure transition went HARD
IS NO ONE GONNA TALK ABOUT THAT TRANSITION FROM GAME TO TOY BC THAT WAS EPIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
Pre ordered mine, cant wait for megatron from both WFC and FOC
That intro was sick bro. Absolute 🔥 🔥
The nusic in the intro was sick
This is Optimus' best alt mode. Fight me.

Imagine the Cybertron games sold as a package for full price on Xbox Series and PS5 in 4K, that would be absolutely amazing
I've never been a fan of the games, but this design is freaking awesome.
I just found an amazing copy of the OG wfc bumblebee in Comicon! I DID NOT GET TO SEE PETER PRIME THOUGH D;
Would have loved a more FOC look but I am just glad someone actually remembers these games existed
'I prefer Fall over War'

I love this version but best was transformers fall of cybertron
Optimus
Bro be running like a gta v character 😭😭
This figure is amazing! i only have 2 issues with it. the arm is a little too skinny with the gun and it doesn't look like it transforms out of the arm maybe if there was red on the gun. also the battle axe is hideous but it is epic

praying for a titan class trypticon from this line 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Now this is Hasbro correct? Cause yeah he looks good static and dynamic. Great true video.
Great figure. If you twist my arm, i'd say the designers could have made the energron axe fold into a rectagle to cover the fists in the rear panel. Weapon storage and coverup.
You just lied. You said "They (games) keep me sane" followed by "Sea of Thieves" and "Call of Duty".
that intro edit though

1:30 that’s The only problem I have with this figure they feel like they are going to snap
I haven't played these games, but this thing just looks so fun to mess with that I feel like I need it.
