Product Description

Takara will modify the paint schemes on all the Japanese Classics figures. They are introducing completely different paint on Megatron and Astrotrain, and the other figures all will have chrome added along with slightly different designs to their paint scheme. Classics Optimus Prime looks a little like a mixture between the Gen 1 concept and that of the Dreamwave War Within series. Prime is equipped with his Laser Gun, and a second larger blaster rifle contained with a transformable back plate. The truck mode is an armored juggernaut geared for the annihilation of Decepticon obstacles. Optimus Primeâ?TMs Classics profile portrays him as an archetypal hero, a reluctant warrior and an ultimate countermeasure to Megatronâ?TMs destructive appetites. Cannily, Prime is described as the personification of justice and the measuring stick of all other heroes.

dear customers, i purchased this version of Optimus Prime over three weeks ago and i am still very impressed with it.unlike some usa made versions this one had die-cast metal parts and while not for a very little child :3-5yrs it is vey durable, easy to transform and well worth the price i do wish they had mentioned it stands in robot mode about 7 in. tall but over-all a good product.if i had the money to afford it i would buy a second one to keep in its package. it is that good. five stars over-all

As a big G1 fan and collector, I decided to give this figure a shot seeing as how it is much closer in appearance to G1 prime than most figures. It is a nice figure and a nice homage, with only a few minor problems. It has a nice die cast grill in the front in truck mode, unfortunatley the design put this in the back in robot mode, and you get a painted gill instead. speaking of the back, it has quite a bit of kibble and excess bulk in the back in robot mode, which looks wierd. The transformation isn't too complicated, but some of the parts don't always seem to fit right, and need to be forced into place. The smokestacks make the gun in robot mode, which is kind of cool, but if you want him holding the gun, you won't have smokestacks in robot mode. A bit small for a prime figure, but bigger than the other figures from this line, which is cool. The detail is nice, and is probably as close as you'll get to G1 prime without spending 100-200 dollars for a masterpeice or original. Seems to be built pretty durable and again, is very faithful to the original in truck or robot mode. So if you don't feel like opening up the wallet for masterpeice,20 anniv., or original, then this is the Optimus for you.
