I love the WFC games and this Prime captures their look very very well! My only qualms with the figure are that I wish the blaster had a cavity for blast effects instead of a peg, as well as the smokestacks to make it look like Prime is boosting around.
Activision had to take down the Transformers games due to expiring licensing rights with Hasbro. As for why you can’t play them now, Hasbro recently said they were interested, but Activision claimed they lost the files…. Then said they DIDN’T lose the files. Still, nothing’s happened, and I’m unsure if anything will happen.
Honestly, it looks good. Still not gonna get it though. Do agree that the altmode needs more paint... and better paint matching on the leg panels connecting to the cab.
Honestly I find the weapon integration to be troublesome and brings up a considant problem I've always had with parts formers. You lose that detachable arm? That's a significant chunk of the truck mode just gone now.
@@KerzacTransformed Balt does this a lot too when he devalues an entire toy just because of one or two personal nitpicks. While I like this alt mode, I genuinely dislike the bot mode and all the "roided-up" designs of the WFC and FOC games. Obviously people like them but it's not for me and I have zero interest in getting this but Barricade does scratch my itch.
I figured out a way to get prime to hold his axe with two hands. You just have to use the transformation slider for the wheels and then the hinge for the arms in order to get him to hold it with two hands.
How does this compare to the original FoC figure? The form is greatly different. This one is very sleek. The vehicle mode looks like a Spider-man vehicle. Sold out on BBTS at time of commenting.
For some weird reason my other 2 comments on this video got deleted & haven’t been put up on this video. I do like the figure especially how it reminds me of the first rendition we got of it. I’m including the repaint to since prior to this figure being released, it was the current rendition of OP. I hope this type treatment applies to the other video game versions these tf figures like Bumblebee, Arcee, & Sideswipe.
Activision just publishered the games, Highnoon studios was the studio that actually did all the work and make the games. Unfortunately was ruin with the Dark Spark tie in game
5:19 Glitch; Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary! (Wish they could have made the action figure though.) 17:48 Not me though. I saw this alt mode from a catalog and I'm instantly loving it! And also I *was* planning to have the game and Activision pulled it?!
@@uainjansun Didn't know that, I'll check it out. Still, the vehicle has defined taillights on the back, so it's kinda unexcusable that this Voyager doesn't have it
Couldn't agree less, sure the sculpt is nice but the plastic is horrible, it feels like a cheap KO and the amount of hollow space has seriously made me consider buying any more product from Hasbro in the future, he's a massive disappointment to me and the only saving grace os that he's the best of a particular ropey trio, with bumblebee looking squat and barricade basically having no leg articulation. Not a good start to this gamer series IMO. Glad you like yours though.
Nice figure, wonder if Planet X will ever give us more WFC/FOC figures. Such a shame you cannot even get these games nowadays. Stupid Activision will never re-release or Update them.
It does suck that we can’t get WFC, FOC, & the other transformer games & all. But I think Hasbro did that because they were rebooting the timeline after RiD 2015. Since they wanted to avoid confusion between the timelines. If Hasbro wanted to release WFC, FOC, & the other transformer games they could with resources they have at hand.
2023 passed so fast. I didn’t realize that Gamer Edition is almost a year old.
The backdrop is actually the Kaon Prison, the place looks "Decepticony" to be the place where he got the matrix.
I hope they do a Fall of Cybertron figure too someday.
Way to show PrimevsPrime who’s boss. Doesn’t even have a video up for this one, lol😂
Surprising....
What the fuck did he do?
Why are you hating
@@That_One_Guy-mm1mhPVP is known to source figures early by…. not necessarily legal means.
“The Council will emerge when it’s safer. In the meantime; Ratchet, Bumblebee, you’re with me.”
-Optimus
Took me 8 months to find him, but I am not disappointed.
“It’s great!”
“Annnnnd it’s gone.”
This video makes it very clear why Hasbro just half asses everything nowadays
Yeah…
When you said Activision, the first things I thought of were Tony Hawk PSP and Crash Bandicoot

0:32 i thinks thats the KAON prison complex
Trying to keep my Optimus prime collection minimum and this one is on my list
Really awesome Optimus Prime! This new War for Cybertron line is looking good!
Absolute garbage!
I love that the guns released with these figures are all from the actual game.
I really wish they do the Foc dinobots. The Foc toyline was what made me find Baltmatrix and other reviewers.

Ironic that a video game design can’t reach a full T-pose.
big ooooo 1:41
Unboxing my Optimus right now. This is so exciting! Awesome review
Both the robot heels and vehicle open back problems could've been solved by some extra parts.
Honestly, it looks good. Still not gonna get it though. Do agree that the altmode needs more paint... and better paint matching on the leg panels connecting to the cab.
This is the version of a Cybertronian Optimus Prime that I need for my series and my collection
WLC is perfect and it has cool video game designs for the characters. ❤
You had me at 'distressed vacuum cleaner'... 😅
I just put this figure into my traditional “Rider Kick” pose, and it looks really good doing one.
oooo 1:33

I can see that being a problem. Even if it’s authentic to the video games, a work around could’ve worked better so that you couldn’t lose that arm.
How can people dislike this altmode? In my opinion it was the better of the two and looked much more like a Cybertronian truck should be.
People focus in on a problem and act like its the whole figure

All the holes that look like missiles are just lights that are supposed to illuminate if you refer back to the video game or images
the background actually shows the Kaon prison where you rescue Zeta Prime
I was very lucky to find gamer Optimus prime at my local Walmart and I bought it on the spot
Lol a skateboard.
Also reminds me of a casket. But I still like the mode.

The vehicle mode looks like a Spider-man vehicle.
Sold out on BBTS at time of commenting.
I got mine at GameStop
Imagine if the do the combaticons from this line
PLEASE
Ok. Now we're talking.
6:14 Maybe the space in his back?
Couldn't the arm fit into the backpack?
Nope. It's to THICK.
@@baltmatrix
Shame.
It actually does. Just have the fist up and palm facing forward
I do love my Old Deluxe version.
Can we get this in black like the that one too?
Excited to get ours
This prime can do rocket punch 😊

I really want this but i cant find it anywhere even on Hasbro's website its soldout
I saw it at gamestop in four seasons mall
How do I get this one most I see has two different photos but it’s not 100% sure which one is the legit pic
The alt mode was fashioned tp look like a fist
Ive had the figure for like 2 days now, and it's my new favorite voyager prime. I never got the earthrise/kingdom one :'(
Activision just publishered the games, Highnoon studios was the studio that actually did all the work and make the games. Unfortunately was ruin with the Dark Spark tie in game
Signature Simple Lines of Swoosh
12:18 like a criminal undercover
Really missing the red highlights from the game the ones there is are nice but some are hidden behind the fact Prime is red anyway
I want him so much
You flipped “pronation and supination”. Supination is what you were showing, like holding a bowl of soup
I got mine on Amazon
paint the robot fingers pink and it will serve as tail lights just like in the game
Not like we saw g1 prime cybertronian mode
5:19 Glitch; Finally! A worthy opponent! Our battle will be legendary!
(Wish they could have made the action figure though.)
17:48 Not me though. I saw this alt mode from a catalog and I'm instantly loving it!
And also I *was* planning to have the game and Activision pulled it?!
You can still get used copies of the games.
Awesome!
It looks like Optimus Prime butt is about to flip the bird when his arm is on his butt
By the primus... optimus prime shit out a fist out.
Funny enough the arms showing in the back is apparently also accurate to the game 😂
Uh... what? The vehicle in-game clearly has a back component, even the old WFC Deluxe did
@@fabiomura08heres a gameplay footage where it shows it. I think neocybex or whatev his name is has a pic of it
@@uainjansun Didn't know that, I'll check it out. Still, the vehicle has defined taillights on the back, so it's kinda unexcusable that this Voyager doesn't have it
@@fabiomura08eah and super weird the pic from the game also has it. Btw did you check it out?
His arm can plug into his other forearm 🤷🏻♂️
Why can't you do a t pose?
It works on mine ok
0:35 Kaon Prison @Baltmatrix
I dont like the axe, like at all. Ill be hoping for a 3rd party axe
Awesome
HERE WE GO
Why would you shave the forearms down? If it’s part of his design, it’s part of his design lol

that is not studio series primal, sir. that is a mainline figure
The alt mode looks like a shoe.

Very curious about this guy

Oh they also pulled sky landers from stores, I FREAKING HATE ACTIVISION!!!!!
CURSE YOU, ACTIVISION!!!
Pien. I was planning to have the game.
*B E E F*
Stubby legged mass of plastic. Such a shame.
Proportiond are accurate to the game and he's a superb figure.
damn sold out
