I just noticed that the actual trailer hitch ends up on his lower back like it’s supposed to. None of the other Leader Class figures have ever done that. That’s amazing attention to detail.

To me, both are great looking but deep down in my heart, I love the dark of the moon Prime a lot more. It's more appealing to me, I love how it had truck parts made into robot parts, he looks a lot more heroic and leader like, and i guess he does resemble G1 Prime more with the blocky look and colour combination. But the Knight version of Prime does look cool too, because it's something new, something great and very badass and warrior like for Optimus.

I agree, I think in general the old designs where better because they where a lot more plausible for how they transformed into robots, like now the vehicle parts just disappear and the robot modes are a lot more "fantasy" looking rather then being realistic
Still watching the review but so far it's looking great Paul, thanks for putting these reviews out man, also really appreciate how you're probably one of, if not the only reviewer who transforms both ways. Thanks and have a good one
Hate to tell you this, but the pinstripes ARE accurate. They're just wildly out of scale. I've seen the truck in person and they're there, but they're about as thick on the actual truck as they are on that toy. Very tough to see on a screen. They're also white and not silver, if I remember properly. If I'm not mistaken, they talk about the guy who painted them on the DVD extras. Apparently, Michael Bay demanded they be painted by a cholo. His words, not mine.

maX Volnutt not to mention that’s another thing that rotf leader class Optimus prime gets right. Mpm looks nice, however I think rotf leader class Optimus is all around a better figure as far as proportion and size. It also scales better with the other figures as well. I don’t even want to talk about buster prime, because he’s better than the original rotf leader Optimus. Especially the paint job, which includes the white penstripes that you mentioned.
I have been waiting so long for this! Thanks, Paul! Appreciate everything you do!
the silver around the pin striping is accurate, it's just way more defined on this figure. The movie version is thin to the point that it's only visible from certain angles.

If you pay attention to Optimus Prime's forearm guards, they actually do have the orange fade in robot mode.
@SuperSpinky4
3 жыл бұрын
@Julian I get why people wanted the orange to fade into the red, but considering the fact that the chest pieces are just behind the grill section and in front of what would be the forearms, we would’ve then had a different problem being the inaccuracy of having the orange fade on the chest instead, and then we would be right back to square one with the arms still not having the fade.
I know this vi\d is old but in the end at 51.00 you said you might want a more premium pant job rotf mold optimus instead. Did you ever find one or have recommendations?
do you still have the symbiote snap venom figure because I would like to buy it
I really like this figure except for a few things. My biggest problems are the missing yellow paint, the grill not being die-cast, and the finicky transformation into alt mode. I may eventually buy him because I never got rotf prime. But I just got bumblebee, so i need to save for a bit.
Sorry for being this late but... if I still have the Revenge of the fallen leader class Optimus Prime do I have to move to the MPM-04? Or can I keep my Leader Optimus Prime?
so november is the release date for this?
The review is fantastic! Even though the video is 54 minutes long, it's still very awesome! Very detailed review! I hope that you will have the review of MB-11 Optimus Prime!
The japan version has a bit of extra silver painted in, and even on the places that arent painted, the unpainted plastic is made with a lighter gray(similar to the og rotf mold) which color matches way better to the parts that are painted silver and does not stick out like a sore thumb like the dark plastic on this release.
thanks optibotimus, i could get my christmas wish of getting the fully TRANSFORMER MPM-04 Optimus Prime, i got it in the truck mode, so I had to transform it, and im not the most qualified to do that so thanks.
Just picked this up yesterday at toys r us for $34.99. It was misplaced on the floor and the store honored the price. Great review, reason why it made me want to get this one a lot more lol
Finally (i smashed my phone display when i saw the notification)
The Wei Jiang version fixes all of these issues.
Hey dude, I know this video is more than 2 years old but you should look into Black Apple's Commander Thunder Leader, it's a massive improvement to this mold and looks absolutely gorgeous and very movie accurate, apart from the finicky diaphragm bits. I think you'd very much love it!
Great review! Thank you for bringing out all of the positive and negative of each formation. You're the Absolute best reviewer out there.
The RotF Leader Prime was one of the best transformers made at the time, and is still a great testament to a high standard in figure making. I loved it, and to this day is still one of the figures I look warmly upon. However, this figure far and above is worthy of taking it's spot on the shelf. It's not really because of faults of RotF Prime, but more of what MPM4 does better. The scaling is better, the paint (even where it isn't accurate) is better. It is a toy, while not looking AS much as a toy as the RotF mold does. Even in this paragraph, I can't do it justice. I think people, like Botimus says, just need to sit with it for a while. Take it in. I especially liked it a lot more when I stood it next to the DotM Leader Class Sentinel Prime. They look good together. That Sentinel had a sleekness that the RotF Leader Prime just didn't match up with. The MPM4 really shows how the Primes were cut from similar cloths design-wise. The difficulties in vehicle mode come from them trying the utmost to get the robot mode to be amazing. I think robot mode IS amazing. It looks great. It plays great. It poses great. The vehicle mode sacrifice isn't that big a deal, because it will transform, and it will look good in vehicle mode, it is just really hard. With that, most people honestly won't have it in vehicle mode that often. That is more a criticism of the design in the movie and translating it. I think it is almost unfair to expect their to be no compromises.

I agree with you but he is not a regular leader class that his design errors can just be ignored in this pricepoint. I have sit arround 3-4 hours to get the altmode lock and tab it together for perfection (emgo's vid helped a lot) now it takes me just 15-20min for the altmode xD As for a "Masterpiece" u can expect perfection in engeneering. Look for the LT 02 KO Prime. They fixed all problems and get it a 100% movie accurate paintjob (i honestly dont like the black windows). Yes it is just a 1:1 copie but the mpm-04 should be that at the beginning. Sure you can do it always better if you have the base mold of a figure but that is another thing. I really hope that Takara release a 2. Version of the mpm04 like the Studio Series did and bring us a TRUE Masterpiece Prime. Dont get me wrong i like the Masterpiece line as well as the Studio Series. But in the future i think i will also buy the 3rd party version. I have only bought the official products yet ^^
Thank you Paul "Optibotimus" for this video review, I just love this figure and I have been looking for this video for some time now, I mean ever since I watched emgo's review of this figure which was great but he only transforms from vehicle to robot without transforming it back so that's why I wanted you to review this figure so thank you again and I hope that you post more videos of the new Transformers The Last Knight movie action figures soon
Yes... Finally. Been waiting ur MPM review
Anyone can tell me lt02 or masterpiece is better?? Cuz i once had ls03 and broke the chest part while transforming. Im afraid it happens to lt02 since its a cheaper version

I got the RotF leader Prime. He was tough to transform but I was always able to get it into a nice truck mode and eventually I got the time down to about 5 minutes. I later got the DotM leader with the jet pack and he was easier to transform. This one I can't get into a solid truck mode no matter what. I'm hoping one of the upcoming KOs fixes the transformation problems...
I love your reviews and especially your masterpiece reviews are you going to do ironhide soon?
Well, I better grab some popcorn for this.
im debating between buying this one or the rotf prime which one should i pick up and which one is more worth it
Great review, i purchased the Takara version. The figure is great but they should have designed it with more pegs for the windows and the door. I fiaally got mine into his truckmkode where all wheels youch the ground and it doesn't look like Megatron sat on it. The trick for me was to not peg the arms together. The window and hood look flush now, only thing that looks a bit meh are the doors they stick 0ut a bit.
It is molded wrong. You ignored the whole issue of the pipes coming from behind the toolboxes not connecting with the bottom of the exhaust stacks.
Shame he's missing a few paint apps but otherwise he's a fantastic figure. Great review, Paul.
Megatron:Who would you be with out me prime? Optimus Prime:Time to find out
34:59 bro u can hear the nervousness in his voice rn as he knows its gonna be a hard transformation 🤣🤣
This or MPM-3 overall like aesthetics in both alt and robot and the engineering/transformation?
Well done! I am looking forward to getting this guy soon. I have the Asia Premium Series Exclusive DOTM APS-01U Ultimate Optimus Prime and that thing is AMAZING! No battle mask but AMAZING! With that said, I actually like the size of this MPM 04 Prime. I think it scales perfectly with the other Masterpiece figures and the fact you can use the trailer from MP 10 with this guy is the icing on the cake. I do wish it had more paint deco on the die-cast metal parts and for a Masterpiece figure I am a little let down how some parts are only painted on the front of the figure and not the back. Again thanks for the review!

Good work Optibotimus your my favorite youtuber and nice review
Thanks optibotimus I've been a long time subscriber to you and emgo so thank you for giving shout out to him
Optibotimus, actually the reason why on the engine area (infront of the cab section) doesn't have the fading airbrush is because the front section of red (as you know) actually become part of the chest, and in the movies he didn't have airbrush on those bits, but he did have them on his arms. also, do you think they should make an MPM-(insert number here) Jazz? cuz I would KILL to have that figure.

I'd love movie masterpiece versions of just about every figure LOL I loved the Human Alliance line and this is a step above that
Mine has a factory error where one piece is placed in the wrong way and cause the Vehicle mode front to be not flushed forever
I don't see it on BBTS nor do I see a link in your description.
He does actually have pin striping in the movie. It's just that it's very thin, and it's colour is inconsistent. In truck mode it's blue while in robot mode it's silver.
Arrghhhh is such a shame that this figure didn't get just right. Is so beautiful but at the same time it's got something wrong in both truck and robot mode, that you explained very nicely. The colouring in the truck is very nice but not perfect. And in the robot mode... the colouring is incredible, the legs look great, the back kibble is non-existent and the forearm is a big improvement. But, as you said, the chest isn't great and the size is a bit of, but it isn't a big deal. I'm thinking in getting an Optimus Prime Movie figure because is a big hole in my collection, but I'm so undecided between getting the masterpiece figure or getting, for example, the DOTM one and try to re-paint it😕 But, great review by the way, good job👍🏻
LoL you and peaugh got me interested in the toys and made me want so much things for christmas when I was younger XD

Pretty much hidden
I was watching seance the transformers prime backpack prime and every time I see your video once I know how to transform a transformer so keep it up and don't let people stop you from what you do
Mpm has the paint job upperhand but the rotf Prime has better proportions. Thing with painting is, you can apply your own paint jobs on the figures, can't really mold it again. So is a solid win for rotf Prime for me.
which is better in your opinion?mp10 optimus or this?btw i'm your biggest fan and i luv your videos man and i'll keep watching it:)
Super looks like the backpack is what's adding a lot of visual bulk
Good they made him smaller. Hopefully he scales to Leader Sentinel in both vehicle and robot mode.
I think the emgo fans are squealing in joy that optibotimus mentioned emgo
if I had the money he would be in my collection right now this is how much I love optimus prime
When you pulled out the Matrix chamber during the transformation I think you hyper-extended it, I can't move it that far/ resting on top of his arms without risking breakage.
Man, what sucks is they could have had a figure very similar to this, maybe a bit simpler to transform in the arm region, way back in 09 if they had just not bothered with the battery pack and the Mech-spin-whatever they called it back then. Those improvements to his backpack and his overall svelteness come from the fact that they were able to shove a bunch of stuff in his now empty chest cavity.
Dose anyone know if the feet are known for chipping?, I’ve seen KZreadrs make fun of his painted feet but I’ve seen no reports of his feet chipping
I think the best looking movie prime you can get is a painted up version of the ROTF leader prime. I like its transformation, its advanced but not tedious, and its chest is much more accurate than the mpm
I think this figure is good, but something about it throws me off. Especially the chest area and the vehicle leaves many things to be desired. I personally think the bumblebee is better, and that's what I already have on my shelf. I'm still gonna watch your review, because I enjoy seeing your thoughts. You're also one of the only other reviewers who thinks the rotf mold is better, like myself.
To me watching these videos are more helpful than trying to understand what to do with the instructions

I wonder if it is because of the Collaboration between Hasbro and Takara why the figure and really running like the standard Takara Masterpiece figures. It would be nice to see Takara come out with their own.
Thank you paul have a good day
optibotimus I need your opinion on two things one: what optimus prime do you think is better tlk calibur optimus or jetwing optimus two: what do you think is the best leader megatron from the movie toys

Hi I love your videos I've been watching you every since 2012 I just like the you're mp-10 Optimus prime and it's nice that your doing mpm-4 Optimus prime I love the movie style I like your videos keep up the good work.
Don't know where the bits to connect the smokestacks are? I wouldn't be surprised if your copy of the figure somehow didn't even have them; EmGo's MPM Bumblebee was missing one of the collar pieces straight out the box. Such QC issues sound like Hasbro level QC to me. That chest looks odd...kinda like the Dark of the Moon Deluxe Optimus.
The pin striping IS present on the movie model and actual vehicle, but is much much thinner, almost like a cartoon outline, than the bolder striping on this figure
i think this would be best displayed in robot mode next to vehicle mode mb-11
Bro 6 years ago when I was 7 I saw this on the shelf in my toys r us and I wanted it but I couldn’t get it😢😢😢
