Studio series bumblebee movie optimus prime doesn't really match to its final design we saw at the end of the movie, it actually resembles the the cab truck in age of extinction before he chose the semi truck, the one we got after the movie was different

Personally i think the beds of past primes have been the least of their problems. But you probably are right about it being the thinnest and best at hiding the feet.

We don’t deserve your effort in these stop motion scenes. Just fantastic!
I really love the Studio Series take on Prime's gun, it looks like a powerful smei-auto canon that will pump lead into Decepticons and shred them into scrap all while flinging casings out the sides
I think my favorite part was when you went on about how you didn't in fact spend ages making mudflaps, and then in the next shot the supposedly nonexistent mudflaps are applied and I bust out laughing

I always parts form off the arm kibble, and it honestly makes the figure so much better
the only thing I don't really love about that figure (and design by an extent) is the head, it's good but not as sharp as it could have been. fortunately the ball joint is The same size as the siege galaxy optimus base robot, which is the best prime head I've seen since the mp 10 one
That transformation! Sooo clean
i think the studio series bb figures (at least, after the first three shaky deluxes) are some of the all-time best transformers, especially at retail prices. they’re just so fun and they look great
7:36 - Ooooh, that is slick! Good use of the fancy new software you're using. lol "And quite honestly, I think this is what everybody was sort of expecting in 2007." YES!!! ALL THE YES!!!! Oh my god, so many forum post and youtube comments like "Making them look just like the toys would be stupid!!!!" Yes. Yes it would. That's why we give them THIS kind of treatment, where they look enough like their original counterparts to be immediately recognizable and hit you right in the nostalgia, but also with enough detail to look like they're real robots instead of just blown-up toys. Was this REALLY so impossible to achieve?!

I just realized something, granted this isn’t about the review, as great as the review was! It’s just a detail I caught… g1 primes blaster is held past the trigger, so is evasion mode primes gun. They were making the reference to the toy, even down to the gun back in 2013!!!!
FINALLY, A REVIEWER WHO GETS TRUCKS!
If you want to go the cheap route you could use that beginner airbrush kit from testors they sell them at hobby lobby or 3d print a holder and use a compressor with some gundam markers
I love how smooth this looks! Can’t wait to see more!
Love your work. Honestly you are one of the best reviewers around. Studio series barricades arms can be made smaller. You left them fully extended. Looks far better with them retracted. Also i recommend a pinch of silver on the faux windows. And black on the clear forarms.
“Like; come on guys, I’m not THAT obsessive of my vehicle modes.” (Says the one who puts moulded mud flaps o the truck mode in the very next shot of the video)
I love looking at this guy next to my g1 magnus and marveling at how far we’ve come
It took a spinoff and four movies to get right
I wouldn't know it's Optimus Prime because the torso has no Autobot logo but that has the best articulation I've seen
Dude! The animation is soooo smooth! I absolutely loved the part where WFC Prime’s gun was stolen one year old, then he just rolled out with the original sound effects!!! I’ll be watching more of these moving forward!

I have lost track of your channel for so long and I finally rediscovered you and I see the bump of stop motion quality. Its amazing
From the moment I saw this announced I was impressed, but when I actually GOT it...man, this is one of those figures that make you fall in love with franchise all over again, because it is so. Damn. GOOD. With our local currency losing value against the dollar, most figures I get nowadays are either second hand or I wait for sales, but this one...no, when I found it I knew it would fly off the shelves, I paid full price(around 35 dollars) and I don't regret it one bit.

Holy Moly, that production quality though. Seriously great job, fantastic review for a fantastic figure.
Great review! Your stop motion skills just getting better! I didn't get this figure, but I did get the AOYI black version to serve as my Nemesis Prime to my Earthrise Prime, and it's awesome!

I don't have to watch the full rant about the forth Transformers movie to say, I couldn't agree more! Yep, I agree with everything you said! It's about frak'n time we got a decent G1 Optimus Prime!!!!!
I also realized that if you flip out the gas tanks in robot mode and those things on his knees, his knee bend is even better!!! Not exactly 180°, but close enough.
your reviews are awesome, all the hardwork of the stopmotion is great, you are great, thanks

People would lose their minds. G1 fans have it good. Miscellaneous fans nowadays can't even get a Bulkhead without them making him square and giving him a nose ;u; I kinda wish Legacy did the movie designs, cause I think they have great concepts that just should be simplified. The thing I love about the Bay movies is that they actually realize these creatures are robots, so they shouldn't be just confined to a human body type. Skipjack moves around like a jackhammer. Sideswipe has wheels for feet. Robots can be so many shapes an sizes, there's no reason they all have to look like us, right?
