This alternative build looks stellar! Also, glad to know I wasn't the only one who thought the axe looked nothing like the original one, or you know like an axe at all.
Excellent job conveying an extremely underrated Optimus Prime design in Lego. Not to mention, this is above and beyond work for a "B" build MOC. It nails all the angles, even the subtle ones above the hips, (I imagine that had to be a pain since the original set is NOT heavy on technic parts). Not only that, but you still worked in details, and barely sacrificed the color scheme.
@@ripleyfuriosa5701 How is it based if there never was a status quo? It's like telling an accountant that they fell off, even though that this is them probably at their best/prime.
Back in 2019 I built a 3ft tall Optimus Prime based off the version seen in the Bumblebee movie. I submitted my design to Lego, but they said it would be too much to get the licence. At the time, I believe Mega Blocks had the Transformers licence. It's nice to see they finally obtained it and put out a model, but it woulda been really cool to see my massive model as like a UCS set.
@@maciejmarchlewski7215 lego made a fat optimus prime the Excuse is it transformes and i didnt like it at all mech should look perfect from every angle
Got done building this a couple hour’s ago. Man! The robot mode is such a beast! I much prefer it then the G1 version. I never was fond of that one in robot mode. Much preferred it in truck mode but found your video here and bought the instructions and built this one up. Had to disassemble him from the stock which was no fun lol but think it was well worth it. One thing to note though and this was on me i think. Was missing some part’s but ended up winging it and just using other part’s from the set that didn’t necessarily need so all is good. I do also wanna say what’s kinda annoying is definitely build this brand new cause left with piece’s that have the sticker’s on.
Outstanding! Well done! As an Optimus Prime fan this video made me very happy and impressed. You just earned yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the great work!👍🏾
@@mixolivera you can do that with anything, this things still gonna be a fragile piece of crap and and it's nowhere near "Better than the original by a very big margin"
So the beauty of YT of me seeing TommyCBricks video a few weeks ago about his 5 mods the the new 10302 set and talking about his "dream" look to this set. Then fast forward to yesterday and me seeing his new vid review on your alternative build mod for the set...this morning, I purchased your instructions, was at the door waiting for the Lego Store at my local mall to open at noon, and got the 2nd to last OP set they had to build your Alt build moc! I do have 1 questions starting off is: "do your instructions go with the Numbered Bags OR just open bags, sort part, then build?" Awesome job on the build and looks sick! I wasn't planning on purchasing this OP set but once I saw what you did with it... I had to purchase and build it myself! This is my second alternative build set I've done for the first one was the new 2022 version of the Batmobile you had to buy the Lego 1989 version set to build it. So I'm looking forward to building this!
You’ll need to open all the bags and sort the bricks. I do recommend sorting them one at a time though… Chubbybots made a great video about sorting for MOCing and I think it works for building MOCs too: ua-cam.com/video/OLvOwXZ2rxI/v-deo.html Thanks for the kind words and support! Send me a private message on Rebrickable if you find anything difficult to follow 🤗
The part about him can’t transform, that mean he not only IDW Optimus Prime but he also Action Master Optimus Prime since AM Optimus looks really slim and have more articulation than Truck Optimus.
@@RansomFern Lame joke, I know. But, as you said at the start of the video, he has hidden features that not everyone sees. So, he's more than meets the eye. Again, I'm horrible at jokes. Please burn me at the stake.
Kind of Figueroa's style. He applied more anime mecha proportions and decals to transformers. I think it fits seeing as several G1 character designs were by Japanese artists or retools of other Japanese mecha.

I tought this was the set plus some extra pieces, but after finding out you used just the set I was stunned, great job.
I'm so glad I bought 2 Optimuses ... I just finished your model and couldn't be happier with the end result! Thanks man
This honestly tempts me to get a second Prime set to build this
lol wtf is that profile pic?

@@ripleyfuriosa5701 I don't know... I'm out bessh
the voice-over makes the video so much more engaging
You know, I actually wouldn't mind if Lego makes another set based on IDW designs, Stealth Bomber Megatron would be a banger of a set
Im gonna be honest this is my all time favorite creation made of lego ever
( including mocs and real sets )
Dang good job you’ve been doing pretty good with these limited pieces like the iron man bust and figure
0:47 I discovered this EXACT same thing my LEGO Prime and I uploaded to my channel as well!

Do you still have it or any picrures of it anywhere online at all then do you?
This looks much beter then the official set 👍🏻
I still prefer the version that transforms

I’m glad you enjoyed it! It required the spares that comes with the set and also bricks from the accessories, including the base of the plaque
😌 I purchased your instructions on rebrickable and I have to say… you’re a genius!
Outstanding! Well done! As an Optimus Prime fan this video made me very happy and impressed. You just earned yourself a new subscriber. Keep up the great work!👍🏾
WHEN YOU CAN PERFECT TJE PERFECTION
Just finished building mine, honestly if it wasn't for this alt, I wouldn't have got one, this looks so much better
This is amazing!!!!
That looks awesome
Amazingly done 👏🏼
I really enjoyed the video too 👍🏽
I was on the fence about getting another set to build this until I found out I had 2 baby blue quarter round pieces laying around. It was meant to be.
Wow just wow 👍👍👍🤖🤖🤖
That is amazing
I might get the OP Lego Set simply for this
I want you to connect dinosaurs, robots.😊
I dig it! Better than the original by a very big margin ❤️
Falling off plates and elbows that can't hold up his own gun, stability is better looks buddy
@@shiverfan4867 good point. However, those can easily be fixed and further improved.

So basically trading fun for cool
Yep! Also I’m stealing this for the title
I need more videos from you I’ve built both your iron mans and the Optimus I need more
I think i may actually buy the optimus set now
2:23 lmao the arm just makes me laugh.
The part about him can’t transform, that mean he not only IDW Optimus Prime but he also Action Master Optimus Prime since AM Optimus looks really slim and have more articulation than Truck Optimus.
Honestly I would make him look more like his Travis knight bumblebee movie optimus prime but this looks good
That thing is made from the Prime kit parts alone? Amazing job dude!
Imagine this transforms :o
Sooo … Bayverse Prime next?
It's very much a, touch with your eyes, kind of build
I do shake it quite violently on camera at one point in the video
Excellent job. Your version takes a sh2#$&--t on the norm.😝👍
yeah, sick
Kind of disappointed that there’s no articulation on the knees but this definitely looks cooler
I was considering doing this to my optimus! What pieces would you suggest to help "finish" the rest of this build to help him be more sturdy?
Dude i freakin loved Idw transformers phase 2 and 3 so this is pretty cool. Is this from phase 1? I never read phase 1
You should let jobbythehong know this
handsome fern
The real challenge is making an alt build of the Fender Guitar set
Awesome alternate build!! Do you plan on filling it out with additional pieces? I'd love to see instructions and a parts list if you ever do! ^_^
Next do a power master Optimus Prime
That's crazy.
You vs the guy she tells you not to worry about
so smart
Pls make video instructions
Hidden features? I guess you could say... he's more than meets the eye.
ಠ_ಠ
@@RansomFern Lame joke, I know. But, as you said at the start of the video, he has hidden features that not everyone sees. So, he's more than meets the eye. Again, I'm horrible at jokes. Please burn me at the stake.
noice
Turns out Lego Optimus have a sailor moon transformation 🤔
Awesome, is this build using all the parts already in the box / set from purchase please? Tempted to do this your version.
Hola Sh*T
Is Amazing
It looks like the own from transformers prime
Great job though I'd prefer the official sence it looks authentic to the original cartoon.
What if G1 optimus Prime became a IDW optimus Prime?
What I would like is for someone to figure out a method to allow the original Optimus to have working knees.
At first i was sceptical when I was buying the Lego Optimus,but after seeing this I’m definitely gonna buy him now 😃
See? Not Iron Man
Do you need extra peices
Still waiting for video instructions
looks more like a gundam now
Kind of Figueroa's style. He applied more anime mecha proportions and decals to transformers. I think it fits seeing as several G1 character designs were by Japanese artists or retools of other Japanese mecha.
I failed on building it, it got destroyed and I couldn’t find the right pieces
Tell us how to make PLEEEEEAASSSE!!!!
Lego tumbler 76239 moc
💯💯💯💯
LOOK HOW SEXY THAT IS. GREAT WORK.
Wow, does it need any extra parts other than what comes in the original set?
It does not. Everything you need is in the box
Thanks
Tutorial of how to make it?
Aaaaaaa pls do video instructions
Can you make a moc with set 71766
Any instruction for the trailer?
How you do that?!
I only will need the Optimus Lego set to make this? Nothing extra?
Everything you need is in the box
@@RansomFern awesome thank you incredible work I hope you're getting many purchases on these instructions it's masterful
Wow...
I don't even own the set and I want to build this
How do you find a pin comments?
no offense but did you voice the asian characters in family guy?
I am asian. This is just how I sound
oh well thats cool
How tall is this moc?
Well that's just PRIME.
Why would you sacrifice a LEGO transformer that actually transforms for a non transforming transformer?
So... what can you do with 2 sets? heh...
Does this only take one set to make?
Yep
@@RansomFern Dang, that's impressive!
@@RansomFern thats hella impressive, for the sheer size i thought itd take at least 2

i apreciated and subscribed to uour chanel
You're forgetting that the original set didn't have knees. Plus, I don't even own the set, not yet of course.
Mine doesn’t either
I tried buying the instructions but my payment got denied twice. Checked my account and shows that two transactions went through. What’s the deal?!?
Send me a private message on Rebrickable
I see someone doesn't like stickers lol
While this version does look cool, half the fun of the original IMO is that it can transform. This one unfortunately can't.
That looks cool but no thank you legos version is perfect basically
So you sacrifice a well put, stay together, figure because it looks "cooler" not worth it
Does it transform?
It does not
@@RansomFern well at least it looks nice
Can someone please be a bro and upload the instructions to somewhere public
