Hi Wayne, just wanted to say thanks for inspiring me to get this model set for myself. Really impressed with the level of detail shown plus the actual weight of the metal pieces. Only complaint I have so far is that step 02-6 was so bleeding fiddly to do. Especially with those tiny frickin EP screws! Looking forward to pack 2. Both on here and in person.
I've avoided this build simply because it is the same type of build as iron man which was abs plastic and metal. Going on that I am thinking that this will be top heavy and will need considerable support to keep up Good to see you tackling this and it would be great at the end to compare fanhome next to agora version
It's interesting that the neck is actually an electrical connector. I suspect that there may be a larger power unit in the torso that can power the head as well. If so, that's a really clever design. You have the small batteries for now, but later you get a single power unit rather than multiple like Iron Man was.
@WorldofWayneUK Nice thing is they were very prompt in sending not just the wiper but also the whole issue for free. At least if needed, I have spare parts..lol
Well, I see a problem with this build right off. The battery compartment is buried under 2-plastic parts - with (1) part screwed in. Now, what possibly can go wrong with that over time? These Transformer builds are really nice, and I can see how much fun it would be to build them. But for me, I'll hold off until I have a kid in my area asking for one.
Mr Wayne could you help me please I took your advice fue months back now to look out for the re launch of enterprise as I got part way in the build up to pack 9 I were keen to complete it The problem is I can not get past the payment bit . Do you know if any one else is having problems . I have bin on to customer service 5/6 times and still get no were I am a a loss to wot to do next If you could help that would be great if not no worries Thanks Colin
That would be cool, although it probably be a bit of a nightmare for some people. Alternatively could just buy a 1:48 scale size model truck either plastic or diecast, and have it displayed next to prime when he's all done and built.
This optimus is the one I ordered to be built. I was hoping was the first g1 optimus u built but oh well at least it is still an optimus. Also we're u get the foam mat thing u use for some parts for your models.

Hi mate, can you recommended a good screwdriver set that would cover most models, currently doing the Iron man and Eddie stobart truck. Thanks in advance
3:15 Umm, wait a minute, is this a Hasbro licenced model? Because on that page in the magazine with Bumblebee, Powerglide (red bot) and Beachcomber (blue bot), that Beachcomber is not a Hasbro or Takara product. That is an unlicensed, 3rd party product from a company called X-Transbots in China. 3rd party Transformers are big business but Hasbro and Takara get no money from them at all. They can't do anything about it though since they aren't technically knocking off a product that Hasbro and Takara made. If this is officially licenced, Fanhome just legitimized a 3rd party product as a real Transformer. Also, unless I'm mistaken, that Powerglide is an oversized knock off of a toy Hasbro released in their Combiner Wars line. It was from yet another Chinese company called Machine Boy. Well done Fanhome. I'm wondering if these magazines will get printed. Also, if they showed this magazine to Hasbro before shipping, the rep that approved that image is probably getting fired.
Hello sir, I've been wanting to get the subscription but Im not sure how it works. Is it a monthly subscription or you pay for each pack? Thanks and God bless
It's so sad it can't transform. If Lego could release a transforming Optimus prime surely Fan Home could do it, especially considering the price people end up paying for the model when it's completed.
Wonderful! Love this. The son of a friend of mine used to call it "Hotimus Sprite" when he was little 🤣
Optimus prime is an awesome Transformer and so are all the other transformers
Loving the new build.
Stay safe all.
Hey Wayne, I signed up for this build yesterday, so its great to see you started too! Great tip about the M vs P screws!
Been waiting for this one to decide whether to get this for myself or not. Cheers Wayne

Looks great Wayne, but I still prefer the original Optimus. That's what I grew up watching.

I kinda think that the headlights on the torso will have some LEDs in them. Maybe the gun will light up? Or the swords 😅
Love the channel Wayne. A little bit bitter sweet though can’t get fanhome hear in Australia.
Looking a nice build when done thanks lee
HUHUUUUU
Schön das du ihn auch Baust...Klasse...
Ganz liebe Grüße aus Deutschland..
LG Thorsten
You should show off the other Optimus Prime model with this one. Give people a comparison so they can decide if they want Gen 1 or Movie Prime.
Just competed mine on Monday now I wait for stages 3-6 to come next month
Looking good dude.
awesome video
really wanted to get this prime build but no longer in uk now so gutted
I had unfortunately lost the issue 2 windshield wiper. Is there any way to order that specific part?
I’m not sure. I would contact them to find out
@WorldofWayneUK Nice thing is they were very prompt in sending not just the wiper but also the whole issue for free. At least if needed, I have spare parts..lol
Do you know where to get screws lost a pack of AP screws on first step
You can try and use some similar size plastic metal screws from another build? They are the ones with threads more spaced out
can anyone tell me what the total cost of this kit and how many months does it take to get all of it. please answer asap thank you.
What kind of screw drivers do you use for the smaller screws on Optimus Prime?
Ph00
Can you get that anywhere like home Depot or Lowe's?
Well, I see a problem with this build right off. The battery compartment is buried under 2-plastic parts - with (1) part screwed in. Now, what possibly can go wrong with that over time?

The top crown is metal.
Mr Wayne could you help me please I took your advice fue months back now to look out for the re launch of enterprise as I got part way in the build up to pack 9 I were keen to complete it
The problem is I can not get past the payment bit . Do you know if any one else is having problems . I have bin on to customer service 5/6 times and still get no were I am a a loss to wot to do next
If you could help that would be great if not no worries
Thanks
Colin
I would contact customer service by phone and try to update the details there. Fanhome will launch this again from the 17th July
Great vid 👍🍺
That part at 18.20 was a nightmare, you need a miniature screwdriver for that section, the supplied screwdriver was too big.
These Optimus Prime models would be a 1000% better if they were actually able to transform into their respective truck forms, too.
I would definitely agree with u there it would look better if he could change into the truck
That would be cool, although it probably be a bit of a nightmare for some people. Alternatively could just buy a 1:48 scale size model truck either plastic or diecast, and have it displayed next to prime when he's all done and built.
I'm three months into this model kit, and I got the right foot completed, still it's impressive.
Look up 'Black Apple Optimus Prime'
By far the best transforming optimus figure.
Yeah just a heads up to everyone on this. It takes almost 2 years to build.......
This optimus is the one I ordered to be built. I was hoping was the first g1 optimus u built but oh well at least it is still an optimus. Also we're u get the foam mat thing u use for some parts for your models.

How do you find out the total cost of one of these builds? The website seems purposely deceptive about how many packs make up a build like this.
115 packs, 1 € 1,00 2,3,4 € 6',50 the others € 13,99
Makes around € 1.550,--
That is about 1600 dollars us wise!!!! Wwwwoooww
Is this first issue available in newsagents ?
No. Subscription only
Anybody know if this model has voice?
Hi mate, can you recommended a good screwdriver set that would cover most models, currently doing the Iron man and Eddie stobart truck. Thanks in advance
Just get a hood Wera PH0. It will last ages. I list them in my Amazon store at www.linktr.ee/worldofwayne
Thank you so much
Wayne doe's this mean you are building 2 of these each from different companies or have i missed something ?
He is. He's also doing Agora's bigger G1 style model.
Yep
How many issues are there? Cheers
Strangely enough I have no idea for this one
The fanhome website says 115 issues.
Just subscribed to you and to get the model. What would be nice is if you could pay extra for the truck aswel
How much?
like you im building both versions of OP
Who is the manufacturer of this figurine?
Fanhome

I think it was still under licence from Hasbro at the time . tfwiki.net/wiki/Powerglide_(G1)/toys
Hello anything for etco 1 or kitt
Nothing has turned up yet
Ive seen that its 150 issues😮 how many issues will be sent each month? 2 a month would take about 6 years 😂
No you will get 5 soon. Most builds are complete in 2 years
I thought that you were already building this? Or is it a different one. I know that Lou is making one as well
This is a different one. This is based on the movie version
@@WorldofWayneUK Oh I see
Like video
Hello sir, I've been wanting to get the subscription but Im not sure how it works. Is it a monthly subscription or you pay for each pack? Thanks and God bless
Yep you pay monthly
It's a licensed product cause I see the Hasbro logo so there it's a licensed
how much packs are there?
115 I believe. I could be wrong
@@WorldofWayneUK i just checked you are right
Hi Wayne,
When can we expect the Agora Optimus pack 3 video?
Looking forward to that!!
Couple of weeks I think
Shame you didn't compare heads !!
It's so sad it can't transform. If Lego could release a transforming Optimus prime surely Fan Home could do it, especially considering the price people end up paying for the model when it's completed.
There’s plenty of transforming TF toys. These are meant for being nice robot mode detailed display pieces.
All these pieces are made out of metal
So far about 80 percent are
Looks as though they changed the premium base design. I don’t like the new design as much, shame
