But you see it's actually a good thing, because it's what's making your greatest dreams the best ones, and it's there to save you in your worst nightmares
@@PerspectiveEnd The only times Prime's mouth looked good (or at least looked good while in the right place) was Rescue Bots, Cybertron, Prime and the very, VERY mediocre RID 2015.
When watching your videos I feel as if I'm hanging out with an old friend that just so happened to bring a prize possession to show me. When you promote something you love over something just to make a buck it will always come across as a labor of love. Not just a love for that item, but respect and love for viewers and subscribers. I have been a Magic Square fan for a while and enjoy your takes and opinions on said subject and items alike.
I think that's cause my writing style is just how I've always talked. Internally I've always been a Reviewer, so even before I did this, it colored how I thought and acted, and wormed it's way into how I express my self. I write these to say the stuff I needed to say to get them off my mind. I suppose all that is just the long way of getting around to saying that I seem so genuine in these videos, because I'm just Genuinely being my self.
I gotta say a few things for you dude. First off, your respect for your subscribers and viewers is the best I've ever seen on this site in the 12-13 years I've been here. It's not some fake/over-hyped respect that focuses on the majority of viewers which causes them to ignore or even forget that their viewers are individual people and not just some number increasing over time. I wish the best for Caelan and for you to never lose your ability to respect every single one of your viewers no matter how much your channel grows. Secondly, you definitely convinced me to put this figure on my 3rd party wish list. It's a damn shame I can't afford any of them rn but as soon as I have enough money I am 100% picking this one up first.
That's what I fear man. One day there will be too many of you to keep track of and I don't want that to happen, but if I keep growing it's kind of an inevitability that I just won't be able to keep up for ever. Glad to have this ability for as long as I can. I hope this figure lives up to the expectation I've set for it. If I put my stamp of approval on something, I really want it to mean something.
Why Reeeee. Well this wasn't designed to be an Optimus Magnus, this was designed as a Regular Optimus Prime, and then just recolored as an Optimus Magnus.
@@PerspectiveEnd Interesting, I have no idea why I said Reeeee. I lost my tripod I use to record my reviews I'll have to find it before I do my G1 Constructions Reissue.
@@PerspectiveEnd I posted a video with ALL the Transformers figures I have in my collection! I also uploaded a second video because I forgot some of them LOL!
Man this looks so gooooooooddd!! The robot mode is sooo awesome!! The vehicle mode is perfect!!! No fake grill, accurate robo mode just 10/10,much love as always perspective end!
Haha! Mind reader! I *just* watched the video where you first mentioned this bad boy and I was meaning to ask you for more info. Guess now I have more info than I could ever need.
I think you will be quite happy with it when it finally arrives. I have great confidence that this is still just about the Best Optimus Prime mold there is.
Thank you. It was how I always planned on doing it, but it's just extra work for not a lot of utility. You get 90% of the point with me just listing off what they can do.
Im doing okay! Also thanks to you bringing up this figure before I have been checking on MS Light of Freedom figures on eBay and Aliexpress regularly for a good price! Or for a momentary lapse in judgement and spend $100+ dollars on a toy (which I do very rarely)
Well here's hoping you can find a solid deal on it. Also glad to hear it, but the way you said that made me think you were Caelan for a second there under a new account.
Thanks for the shoutout and yes I adore this figure so much and for me the price I got it which after tax and shipping was around 160 which might be a lot but for me it was very worth it and after I used super glue on some joints it is now perfect so I’d say pick your favorite color version and enjoy
Great review! You DID make me want this figure! Unfortunately it's out of my price range at the moment. However, I DO have the Legends scale Light of Justice metallic version on the way as a consolation prize. :)
Nice! I hope you love that even if it's not the same as this. I do know that the altmode is a bit less cohesive than this, as it doesn't have doors, and there are a few extra Gaps, plus no articulated hands. I still expect it to become the pride of your legends collection.
The axe for me is a very important accessory in the MP OP, most likely because as a child I had only seen the three first episodes of G1 (I don't really know, at least I remember the one going to the Earth from Cybertron, the one of the petrol station and the one of the jam), and that is my nostalgia pic on Transformers
@@PerspectiveEnd, I mean, with G1 style masterpieces I think is ok to come with, because a masterpiece had to have some accessories to justify the price (I'm not syaing that it had to have the trailer and all that stuff to have like $400+ price, but at least some weaponry and alternative faces and stuff like that to justify the $100 or $200 price of the figure), also it's allways good to have some melee weapons to your figures, and the axe is the iconic melee weapon to any Optimus encarnation
Glad you liked it, I may or may not continue it. It really adds to the length of the video, and I know a lot of people really don't care about articulation.
@@PerspectiveEnd I feel like if you added time stamps to the video it would also help people jump to the essentials for them. As some people prefer the accessories the transformation etc
It’s such a pleasure to finally own this figure. Me and my father figure went to a classic toy show and there was a guy that was selling one of these for 100 bucks. From his collection. wasn’t the Optimus Magnus version. It was the original paint scheme. And i like making it flip off.
Great review. One thing though, the MP scaled Light of Freedom figure came out before the Legends scaled one. The original release was not the best because Magic Square used little to no paint on it, making it look kind of faded and lackluster. They ended up doing a metallic version instead and all the other subsequent releases thereafter (including the Legends version). They downscaled the MP version that's why the Legends figure was so good. I ended up using the Magic Square as my Magnus and TE as my Optimus.
Interesting. I wonder what motivated a Legends Company to Make a MP Scaled figure before they made something more in their wheel house... Either way, I guess they really recognized what they had in their hands with that mold. And I kind of ended up doing the same thing, even though I am Eyeing that Metalic Version... Also the crystal version because I'm stupid, and crap like that appeals to me.
@@PerspectiveEnd I actually missed out on the initial metallic release. I was tempted to buy it from Ebay for $350, but luckily they announced they're doing a reissue.
@@PerspectiveEnd After watching this video, I'd really like to see you review MP-44. It would be cool to know your opinion about it (maybe review the ko instead, they're pretty much identical).
The only other time I’ve seen Optimus with an axe is in Netflix siege, prime wars, and cyberverse and that’s recent shows. It’s been he has a sword like the starsaber, swords that come out his hands, or he uses blasters. Heck even Megatron flail doesn’t see much show action
Yeah Axes are kind of his defining Melee weapon, but I'm more talking about the Pure Enegery one that comes out of his hand. Don't get me wrong I don't hate it, but it's becoming like the Matrix where every new version has one, and it's getting tiresome.
I don’t mind a optimus prime with a fake grill but this figure amazes me with how great the engineering is. Honestly feel they made this figure with the same engineering and articulation as this figure but it looked like Transform element OP leader I would be sold
The magic Square light of freedom has a lot color variants if anybody wants it be it optimus magnus ,nemesis prime, shattered glass optimus and optimus being dead not joking it's ms-01s gray
Yeah they also do a Crystal Version, so if you want Ghost prime you can do that too. Not going to lie the Crystal Version tempts me, because for some reason I'm a Sucker for that BS.
6:09 well those who want to recreate a pretty iconic moment from the first episode and anyone who wants to pose prime in a fight using meelee weapons And before you tell me no such people exist the nemesis has become iconic with Gwoners despite appearing less, skywarps teleportation hardly appeared more yet is his most iconic trade. And do I have to mention the final battle accessories included every single release ever, the amount of people caring about star screams coronation gear?
Are you going to use this ugly small version to do that? The Nemesis Appeared in a Lot of episodes. It was only shown flying twice in G1, once in Episode 1 once in beast wars, but it's still the base for the deception's for the first two seasons. It's just barely less prominent than the ark. I don't want Starscreams Coronation gear more than once either.
@@PerspectiveEnd nope only the ark appeared after episode one the decepticons have a random evillair and yet it still popular with truck not monkey people
Nice! Good way to be sure. That does bring up the question though that maybe the actually made this first, and that might have been a down scale instead? Weird that a legends company would go for an MP first. Either way they REALLY recognized what they had.
@@PerspectiveEnd Magic square’s first figure is MP scale prime, then after the obligatory nemesis prime/SG/Magnus recolors they downscaled this into a legends figure and has been making legends ever since. They are reissuing MP prime soon and I hope they get back into making more MP after this.
@@PerspectiveEnd It's the gesture you performed in the time stamp. It was a popular trend a few years ago, and it basically was done in comedic effect after someone has said something stupid, often accompanied by a vulgar lecture. Or used as a term of exclamation.
They do make the legends scale one, but I don't know how well it compares to this. But yeah this is the end of the Week of Ultra Magnus for real this time.
I'd assume it's because I'm a very harsh critic who doesn't just hand off his stamp of approval to like 90% of stuff so me gushing about this is a bit different than reviewer 94132 who gushes about every figure.
Hope you’re doing well, Caelan. Edit: On a side note, I am one of those people that thought “This is a really good deal.” And accidentally bought the legends version a few months ago.
How so? MMC typically has very good poseability, but I actually think that the company out there who puts out the figures with the most is actually Magic Square.
The newer figure poses better, but I like this version more. The Materials are better, and the transformation is more fun. Based on the prices you just said though, I think you are looking at the legends scale versions, so make sure that you are looking at the MP scale one's if that's what you want.
I’m really curious whether he’ll do a video on it. I really like the look of the figure, but I’m already hearing horror stories about the plastic quality. I’m thinking PE’s view on it may decide whether I get it or not.
Nowhere near the topic of the vid but man the figure that got me into collecting (aka started to make my wallet cry) was Netflix soundwave and I love it!!!!
I really like how you love the design because you think it looks good, and not because it’s G1. Just cause it’s G1 doesn’t mean it’s automatically good. A figure should be judged based on its aesthetic and overall design. All that aside, this figure looks gorgeous. I’d buy it if I could. I can always rob a bank for the money I suppose
Case and point Huffer. No one needs that as it was shown in G1 in their lives. I don't think you need to go THAT far, its not that Expensive. Maybe you could go for the Legends version. It's definitely not as good, but how much worse could it be. It should only be about 40 bucks.
What actually made me buy this in the first place was that color scheme, I had no idea what it would be like outside of that, I just thought it was pretty.
Rewatching some older vids of yours and I agree on the point about an Optimus that transforms as we saw. Something that's been a curse since Classics Prime is the legs being backwards and having to swivel it around. Siege Prime kinda solved it but the legs still do this on the knee joint. Oddly enough the first Ultra Cyberverse Prime kinda transforms perfectly, only difference is the legs fold in on themselves for the back of the truck like FOC Optimus. Speaking of cybertronian figures, I got Origins Bee today. Megatron and Shockwave were my favorite Siege figures, now they've been dethroned. Yes I count him as a very delayed Siege figure and whenever the inevitable selects Cybertron Wheeljack happens I'll count him as one too.
@@PerspectiveEnd Mhm! I was worried I missed out on him too like I did with the micromasters and battlemasters. Doesn't help I've started watching the Unicron Trilogy and they give me Mini-Con vibes. I dunno if I'll like the rest of the trilogy but just hearing Gary Chalk and David Kaye again is a treat itself so I'm giving it a shot.
Even as a fan of Jobby, I find it weird when he complains about masterpiece accessories that reference single episodes, while loving the axe hand for OP and Mace for megatron. Like I enjoy all that kinda stuff as options (as long as it's not used to justify a huge price), for example a welding torch for ratchet so he can repair a damaged autobot or an energon cube for Soundwave all add display options. Plus when it's masterpiece you can expect the adult collectors to be a bit more careful with their spare parts.
I'll tell you the Accessories I want to complain about, it's all the crap that keeps coming with EVERY VERSION of a character. Like does every Megatron on Earth need the Key to Vector Sigma. I have almost as many of those as I do Matrixes.
@@PerspectiveEnd I don't know why there hasn't been anyone doing a vector sigma itself, I know it's just a ball, but someone has to want it. ButI've noticed you've not been happy with the number of Matrixes you've been getting. The funny part about that was Masterpiece was doing okay letting their figures share, like hotrod taking in MP-10s matrix rather than make two. Then there were like 5 MP's that came with a megatron in gun mode.
I think you might be mistaken. I never talked about the Prime Version before. I've only ever talked about this one. Though I did cover this figure in WTB Optimus prime. Anyways. I'm glad you liked the video.
If I’m not mistaken, I think MP-10 has the real grill for his truck, shame his proportions are just a bit wonky. I have this guy ordered, hopefully I won’t be disappointed. Love the white color on this version
The mp 10 does not have the reel grill for his Abbs. The real grill ends up inside of his chest just underneath his head, the ones that becomes his Abbs is stored on the underside of the truck in altmode.
I see why you love this figure so much. Actually in my opinion, i prefer TE-01 Back proportion more than this one, it's cleaner and more accurate in movie. The back of TE's truck is cleaner and flatter too. But, in term of accesories, articulations, and transformation, MS is a clean winner. TE transformation is not G1-ish enough for me, and it use fake grill. Btw i think you forget about the matrix.
I totally did forget about the Matrix because it was in him and I didn't have to pull it out of a Drawer. Damn. I'm with Jobby on the TE being a little too flat, and the transformation on the TE is not only not G1 it's just not fun in general.
Did you want to get hit or something? Do you have the legends version? I hope it's pretty solid at least. I mean you can like the axe, but do we need it EVERY SINGLE new release?
@@PerspectiveEnd t'was an account of tomfoolery The legends one is good, but its a weird Size and almost nothing like this one (still ok, The plastic sucks tho) Fair
There is a somewhat easy way to make the transformation just like the show for the chest at least. U can use springs to have the grill be pushed forward when push and click in the parts on the side if the grill
Imagine if they made a figure of Optimus with his mouth plate missing drawing error in the season 2 episode "Search for Alpha Trion." I would buy it even if it costs a million dollars.
I am a Giant Worry Wart about other people. Every time a Member of my family gets in a car I worry they are going to crash. Now I have all you guys to worry about. I'm going to go insane.
managed to find this thing at a flea market near my area completely new insanely lucky find considering this thing is out of stock almost everywhere most online stores just have the light of peace now
@@PerspectiveEnd like 90 bucks i think (converting to USD) open markets in general are really underrated places to look for transformers there are some great vendors there if you can find them side note why are all the best third party figures so scarce now

The only other time I’ve seen Optimus with an axe is in Netflix siege, prime wars, and cyberverse and that’s recent shows. It’s been he has a sword like the starsaber, swords that come out his hands, or he uses blasters. Heck even Megatron flail doesn’t see much show action
Animated one had an axe. Actually makes sense for him because war is over and it's more of a tool
Yeah Axes are kind of his defining Melee weapon, but I'm more talking about the Pure Enegery one that comes out of his hand. Don't get me wrong I don't hate it, but it's becoming like the Matrix where every new version has one, and it's getting tiresome.
I don’t mind a optimus prime with a fake grill but this figure amazes me with how great the engineering is. Honestly feel they made this figure with the same engineering and articulation as this figure but it looked like Transform element OP leader I would be sold
I mean this does look a lot like the OP leader, they aren't so different?
@@PerspectiveEnd I know but I would like him to be a bit slimmer
Their legends 2.0 has been shown off. I love both MS-01 and MP-44, so I just adore 2.0.
What are your thoughts on it?
They're making a second edition of the Legends version of this figure. I'd not heard that. I'll have to look into it.
I can't help to like the irony of someone who got hit by a truck asking you to review a truck.
Doubt they meant this kind of truck, but Ironic none the less.
The magic Square light of freedom has a lot color variants if anybody wants it be it optimus magnus ,nemesis prime, shattered glass optimus and optimus being dead not joking it's ms-01s gray
Yeah they also do a Crystal Version, so if you want Ghost prime you can do that too.
Not going to lie the Crystal Version tempts me, because for some reason I'm a Sucker for that BS.
6:09 well those who want to recreate a pretty iconic moment from the first episode and anyone who wants to pose prime in a fight using meelee weapons
And before you tell me no such people exist the nemesis has become iconic with Gwoners despite appearing less, skywarps teleportation hardly appeared more yet is his most iconic trade. And do I have to mention the final battle accessories included every single release ever, the amount of people caring about star screams coronation gear?
Are you going to use this ugly small version to do that?
The Nemesis Appeared in a Lot of episodes. It was only shown flying twice in G1, once in Episode 1 once in beast wars, but it's still the base for the deception's for the first two seasons. It's just barely less prominent than the ark.
I don't want Starscreams Coronation gear more than once either.
@@PerspectiveEnd nope only the ark appeared after episode one the decepticons have a random evillair and yet it still popular with truck not monkey people
Legends version has a “B” in its product code i.e. MS-B18W. The MP scale is MS-01W.
Nice! Good way to be sure. That does bring up the question though that maybe the actually made this first, and that might have been a down scale instead? Weird that a legends company would go for an MP first.
Either way they REALLY recognized what they had.
@@PerspectiveEnd Magic square’s first figure is MP scale prime, then after the obligatory nemesis prime/SG/Magnus recolors they downscaled this into a legends figure and has been making legends ever since.
They are reissuing MP prime soon and I hope they get back into making more MP after this.
@@maxdudomite Interesting i wonder what prompted a legends company to start with a MP Scaled figure.
7:34 True perfection will be achieved when we can get an Optimus that can do the "BOI" gesture.
What is the BOI gesture?
@@PerspectiveEnd It's the gesture you performed in the time stamp. It was a popular trend a few years ago, and it basically was done in comedic effect after someone has said something stupid, often accompanied by a vulgar lecture.
Or used as a term of exclamation.
Wish you had 2 more Magnusie to have a full week of these.I would probably buy this but Im not into MP scale figures and prices.
They do make the legends scale one, but I don't know how well it compares to this.
But yeah this is the end of the Week of Ultra Magnus for real this time.
Why is it that this video convinced me taht this figure looks and not every other video with this figure ?
I'd assume it's because I'm a very harsh critic who doesn't just hand off his stamp of approval to like 90% of stuff so me gushing about this is a bit different than reviewer 94132 who gushes about every figure.
Hope you’re doing well, Caelan.
Edit: On a side note, I am one of those people that thought “This is a really good deal.” And accidentally bought the legends version a few months ago.
Oh man that Sucks!
I hope it wasn't too big a Disappointment. How are you liking your legends version?
hope you feel better soon Caelan.
I think he will be. I know he's out of the hospital. That's how he was finally able to message me.
looking back this is the most MMC thing magic square has ever produced
How so? MMC typically has very good poseability, but I actually think that the company out there who puts out the figures with the most is actually Magic Square.
@@PerspectiveEnd it's appearance reminds me of a figure from ocular max
This figure is just plain spectacular. After watching this I really want the figure!
It's really good. I hope I didn't over hype people.
should i get the new B46A or the light of freedom? The B46A is 40, while this is 66. both look really good but i am kind of unsure.
The newer figure poses better, but I like this version more. The Materials are better, and the transformation is more fun.
Based on the prices you just said though, I think you are looking at the legends scale versions, so make sure that you are looking at the MP scale one's if that's what you want.
@@PerspectiveEnd sorry took me sec but the B46 is the legends and the light of freedom is MP scale. They seem to have reduced the price heavily.
Oh lord his power of convincing is working!!!
I am quite good at selling people something when I want to be.
Damn, I hope Caelan ok
I mean they are out of the hospital, so they should be doing fine.
@@PerspectiveEnd thats nice to hear
Can’t wait to see the sequel to this vid when you get the MS-02, since this is so highly recommended
I’m really curious whether he’ll do a video on it. I really like the look of the figure, but I’m already hearing horror stories about the plastic quality. I’m thinking PE’s view on it may decide whether I get it or not.
I plan to cover it.
It’s so weird there’s no MP ultra magnus that can turn into optimus magnus like the siege and kingdom figures
Ikr
There is 3d printed mp10 armor from printformers tho. Looks good but damn it's far from masterpiece
Wait Monologi O Robotach made a MP10 Upgrade Kit?
You'd think some Upgrade company would do that to make a quick buck.
@@PerspectiveEnd yes, a pretty impressive one but still far from masterpiece. More like proof of concept
Nowhere near the topic of the vid but man the figure that got me into collecting (aka started to make my wallet cry) was Netflix soundwave and I love it!!!!
I really like how you love the design because you think it looks good, and not because it’s G1. Just cause it’s G1 doesn’t mean it’s automatically good. A figure should be judged based on its aesthetic and overall design. All that aside, this figure looks gorgeous. I’d buy it if I could. I can always rob a bank for the money I suppose
Case and point Huffer. No one needs that as it was shown in G1 in their lives.
I don't think you need to go THAT far, its not that Expensive.
Maybe you could go for the Legends version. It's definitely not as good, but how much worse could it be. It should only be about 40 bucks.
@@PerspectiveEnd Wait what is the legends version of this? Do you have a link to a video reviewing the figure?
The return of the king
Is the King the figure or am I the figure.
... That's not what I meant, but it's what I wrote because I wasn't thinking, and now I'm sticking with it.
@@PerspectiveEnd yes
@@PerspectiveEnd as i said, the return of the king (you)
5:10
Bayverse optimus is gonna need a can of ice cream after that lol
More jacked than fat... Great line.
It does have a certain Cadence to it.
Really hope optimus magnus gets some armour soon
I don't think they are ever going to make an armor set for this but it would be cool, and it would be a crafty way to make more off the mold.
That would make this thing the literal best transformers figures ever
@@shouryajaiswal8123 I would worry about that scratching the paint.
Man, that figure is really good. Especially the normal Prime version, but this version just looks really clean with it's color scheme.
What actually made me buy this in the first place was that color scheme, I had no idea what it would be like outside of that, I just thought it was pretty.
The Week Magnus of Ultra Continues
It will never end. This is an Ultra Magnus Fan Channel now.
By the way the legends one is called “light of justice” not “light of freedom” just so nobody gets the two mixed up
I probably should have pointed that out in the video.
i might pick up the ghostbusters recolor of this since i love both franchises
There's a Ghost Busters Recolor of the Magic Square?
@@PerspectiveEnd yes but i think its only the legends class one
Rewatching some older vids of yours and I agree on the point about an Optimus that transforms as we saw. Something that's been a curse since Classics Prime is the legs being backwards and having to swivel it around. Siege Prime kinda solved it but the legs still do this on the knee joint. Oddly enough the first Ultra Cyberverse Prime kinda transforms perfectly, only difference is the legs fold in on themselves for the back of the truck like FOC Optimus. Speaking of cybertronian figures, I got Origins Bee today. Megatron and Shockwave were my favorite Siege figures, now they've been dethroned. Yes I count him as a very delayed Siege figure and whenever the inevitable selects Cybertron Wheeljack happens I'll count him as one too.
Glad to hear you are loving it, I was confident anyone who gets it would.
@@PerspectiveEnd Mhm! I was worried I missed out on him too like I did with the micromasters and battlemasters. Doesn't help I've started watching the Unicron Trilogy and they give me Mini-Con vibes. I dunno if I'll like the rest of the trilogy but just hearing Gary Chalk and David Kaye again is a treat itself so I'm giving it a shot.
Even as a fan of Jobby, I find it weird when he complains about masterpiece accessories that reference single episodes, while loving the axe hand for OP and Mace for megatron. Like I enjoy all that kinda stuff as options (as long as it's not used to justify a huge price), for example a welding torch for ratchet so he can repair a damaged autobot or an energon cube for Soundwave all add display options. Plus when it's masterpiece you can expect the adult collectors to be a bit more careful with their spare parts.
I'll tell you the Accessories I want to complain about, it's all the crap that keeps coming with EVERY VERSION of a character.
Like does every Megatron on Earth need the Key to Vector Sigma. I have almost as many of those as I do Matrixes.
@@PerspectiveEnd I don't know why there hasn't been anyone doing a vector sigma itself, I know it's just a ball, but someone has to want it.
ButI've noticed you've not been happy with the number of Matrixes you've been getting.
The funny part about that was Masterpiece was doing okay letting their figures share, like hotrod taking in MP-10s matrix rather than make two. Then there were like 5 MP's that came with a megatron in gun mode.
I was quite surprised seeing this! I know you said good things about the prime version, so I have good feelings toward this review.
I think you might be mistaken. I never talked about the Prime Version before. I've only ever talked about this one. Though I did cover this figure in WTB Optimus prime.
Anyways. I'm glad you liked the video.
Yeah, that's what I was referring to.
If I’m not mistaken, I think MP-10 has the real grill for his truck, shame his proportions are just a bit wonky. I have this guy ordered, hopefully I won’t be disappointed. Love the white color on this version
The mp 10 does not have the reel grill for his Abbs.
The real grill ends up inside of his chest just underneath his head, the ones that becomes his Abbs is stored on the underside of the truck in altmode.
@@PerspectiveEnd oh my bad
I think we should look at Devastation for G1 Optimus’ design. They made a model for it so that there wouldn’t have any changes due to bad animation.
I agree with that sentiment. I'd actaully like to see a Line devoted to that Game honestly.
I saw peolesdru's video on the light of freedom optimus. This is gonna be a good one
Don't know who Peoplesdru is, but I assume they had nothing but good things to say as well.
i ADORE that truck mode
It's sooooo good. Everything I want an Optimus to look like in truck mode.
@@PerspectiveEnd yes
When is MP 10 review coming for the week of Ultra Magnusi
Why would he be in the Week of Ultra Magnus?
Had this figure for my G1 Optimus since it came out/ It's fantastic!
It's just beyond Excellent. Like the new version I wouldn't even say is an Improvement, just a Sidegrade.
May I suggest a figure to review? Clone droid Sixshot.
Don't have one, but that does look like it has at least a Certain something special going for it.
I just went to Walmart and they for once had so many transformers. The had Huffer's Arce's, just to name a few.
Seems like maybe the stock is finally happening.
@@PerspectiveEnd I know, I think it's because were finally starting to get covid under controlled among other things.
They’re coming out with an accessory pack that turns this guy into actual Ultra Magnus
Are they now? Do you have a link?
@@PerspectiveEnd Well it turns out that it's for the legends class MP figure, but you know they're gonna make the upscaled version eventually
Hey look its Ultr.... I mean white prime, yep this is ultra magnus, the laziness sparkles
Please. Optimus Magnus.
The week of ultra Magnus is two electric Boogaloo
Indeed, but this won't be a full week sadly.
5:56 is it a 5mm Port?
No that's a good bit larger than 5mm, it looks smaller on camera than it is but it's probably around 10mm.
@@PerspectiveEnd oof, would've been awesome if it was.
I see why you love this figure so much. Actually in my opinion, i prefer TE-01 Back proportion more than this one, it's cleaner and more accurate in movie.
The back of TE's truck is cleaner and flatter too.
But, in term of accesories, articulations, and transformation, MS is a clean winner.
TE transformation is not G1-ish enough for me, and it use fake grill.
Btw i think you forget about the matrix.
I totally did forget about the Matrix because it was in him and I didn't have to pull it out of a Drawer. Damn.
I'm with Jobby on the TE being a little too flat, and the transformation on the TE is not only not G1 it's just not fun in general.
The truck completely missed me :(
Also, The legends one is much worse than this Chad of a prime (#newage gang)
Also also, i like The axe
Did you want to get hit or something?
Do you have the legends version? I hope it's pretty solid at least.
I mean you can like the axe, but do we need it EVERY SINGLE new release?
@@PerspectiveEnd t'was an account of tomfoolery
The legends one is good, but its a weird Size and almost nothing like this one (still ok, The plastic sucks tho)
Fair
7:35 Awh… he can’t cliffjumper with the BOI knife hand?
Tragic I know.
@@PerspectiveEnd Truly one only match by the death of Patroclus to Achilles.
There is a somewhat easy way to make the transformation just like the show for the chest at least. U can use springs to have the grill be pushed forward when push and click in the parts on the side if the grill
That could work yes.
Imagine if they made a figure of Optimus with his mouth plate missing drawing error in the season 2 episode "Search for Alpha Trion."
I would buy it even if it costs a million dollars.
That would be a hilarious Accessory.
If you want an official Optimus Prime that uses the same grill for both modes the Cyberverse Deluxe is a decent figure for it's price
Yeah but that's a cybervers figure, and therefor looks NOTHING like anything else in my collection, and would stick out like a Sore Thumb.
Found 2 decoes of this mould for the same price. Really hoping to get one. If I do, I'll let you know :)
Nice. I can to recommend it enough.
Perspecriveend has paranoid but for other People and good vid
I am a Giant Worry Wart about other people. Every time a Member of my family gets in a car I worry they are going to crash.
Now I have all you guys to worry about. I'm going to go insane.
I agree when he mentioned that not every detail on one thing
Yeah it's annoying how much people obsess about minutia.
Yeah just let it be a fun figure that we can just enjoy
managed to find this thing at a flea market near my area
completely new
insanely lucky find considering this thing is out of stock almost everywhere most online stores just have the light of peace now
How much did it cost? And congratulations, that is an awesome find.
@@PerspectiveEnd like 90 bucks i think (converting to USD)
open markets in general are really underrated places to look for transformers there are some great vendors there if you can find them
side note why are all the best third party figures so scarce now
