To be clear: The company is currently not working at full capacity due to covid outbreak. They had planned a 2022 release but it has been pushed back till at least January 29, 2023, a week after January 22 chinese new year holiday. Showz, tfsource, and Bombusbee are estimating February 2023 for mass consumer release. The cyber key is a preorder bonus from the distributor not affiliated with TR. Showz and Bombusbee will get it thru their distributor. The review copies will differ from final versions, taking away redundant tabs.

I can hear Gary Chalk say "Our worlds are in danger. To save them and the galaxy we must find the four cyber planet keys before the decepticons can use them for evil. It is our mission."

Because many people may be wondering: There is a + shaped slot where the side windows were that the arms will fit into. It is *not* spring loaded and *not* compatible with leobreaker. If TR were to implement savage claw mode they'd have to design an all new peg and it would fit into the slot by friction alone. Even then there is no way to implement savage claw and super mode at the same time due to backpack not allowing one arm to fold back. Magmotion featured a video comparing TR02 with sonic wing mode. Promising, because there is nothing really stopping sonic wing mode from happening except there is no way to attach gun heels to the super mode feet.

I have the OG cybertron optimus prime. On the OG, the little crotch plate actually does softly lock the chest in during vehicle mode which is nice. The transformation is very similar to the OG, but with just a little variation.

Just got my release copy. All of the fingers disintegrated after my initial transformation. This figure came with a little baggy containing 10 replacement figures that seem to be made of sturdier plastic, but it was still shocking and frustrating having to replace them all first thing out of the box. Also, I'm so glad I watched how you transformed him into super mode, I didn't trust those thin black "backpack straps" to not break, but extending the shoulders like that did the trick! Overall, an amazing looking figure, I'm just sad I have to worry about the durability of the plastic.

I remember reading once that the unicron trilogy animation models were made in close association with the toy designs. If that is indeed the case, its unsurprising that a very good amount of screen accuracy is possible for these recent 3rd party toys without terribly complex transformations, since the designs were specifically made to make that possible. The really complex 3rd party transformations are often a product of the general sloppiness of the G1 animation, or the complexity of the live action animation (and if TFP or Earthspark ever get 3rd party toys they'll be in a similar place)

I am going to be on the lookout for this Optimus prime for definite. Great review as aways I look forward to seeing your next one.

Still own, and absolutely love the original Cybertron Prime toy. It's big, durable, and still display worthy. Only nitpick I had then was the unpainted Cyber Key which was call in a blue transparent plastic. This third party rerelease definitely does this toy justice, and the paint aps all around are spot as are the colors. Interesting differences. The original I believe lit up as well as fired missiles. 3 in total, and the feet had a spring joint of sorts to extend them for the commander mode. Really surprised how well this toy has held up over the years with no breakage issues whatsoever.

I managed to preorder one thanks to your video!

I love the original version which i still have in combined mode with star saber, is really a straight foward clone with some twist and a lot of diecast and it looks insanely beautiful.

I almost fell in love with this figure since TNR had released gray prototype. Can't wait to get him in hand

Hopefully this can spark ideas in other third party companies heads about getting more unicron trilogy and maybe tf animated characters from them, it would be great to see some of the characters we never got to see as figures from animated

The OG Cybertron figure was my absolute favorite. My mom had actually sold it at some point during my teens and I was devastated. About a decade later (last year) I found it again at a Frank N Sons near me. The exact same one. Since my dad put my name on all my toys 😂😂

The only concern I had with TR-02 CoS was the fact that the arms that attached to the cannons were too long or even uneccessary when in robot mode and flight vehicle mode. And while there was no way to recreate the cannon opening gimmick on the left cannon from the show, the mechanism looked powerful enough to open the outer "jaws" of the cannon

the og cybertron prime had the key insert into those lader things in vehicle mode which could cause flashing lights in the one that opens and closes akin to a croc/alligator or those 2 bits within the other ladder part can pop out via a spring also dont know if he had lights and sounds or not, his wheels weren't rubber per ray but he still rolled really well, and he was a hefty boi (not nearly as much as metroplex mind you) also idk if the one in this videp can combine with leobreaker or that other one for either savage claw mode or sonic wing mode

Where do u get ur high quality studio series transformers figures cuz when I buy my figures there so low quality loose joints and pieces tht don't tap

Hey Prime I love your video I have been sub for 4 years Autobots roll out.

I love u channel man

So, much like the MP Datsuns & Hot Rod, this guy's just the original Galaxy Force/Cybertron toy with extra steps. Nice!! (If I weren't so hellbent on tryna get the Eagle KOs of Thundercracker and Skywarp, I'd gladly drop that idea to get this behemoth!!)

Fun fact Gary chalked is the voice actor for the unicron trilogy optimus

1:56 I used to own the Galaxy Force redeco of the original figure, but it’s right arm broke off when I tripped and fell down the basement stairs of my house while trying to carry it to my room.

Still got my original Cybertron Optimus Prime, and this is pretty cool in comparison. Bits I like: the diecast in the legs, the feet and fingers articulation is better, the wheels that make the hip skirts have better maneuverability, and the jetpack section looks less bulky than the original. Things to improve upon imo: the Matrix doesn't look as accurate to the show as the original Matrix in the original toy, I prefer the little lever in the back of the head on the original to bring up the battle mask instead of flipping the face up and around, and there's no slot for the unique designed Cyber Key in the main weapons on the jetpack. Things I don't like: the waist section compared to the original looks a bit less stable despite providing much better maneuverability than the original, and if I'm being picky I prefer the head sliding up on a slider like on the original toy (but the cover on the back is so much cleaner!) and if the company were to produce their versions of Leobreaker and Wingsaber, I'm not sure how well those would combine - the toys were almost completely identical in-hand compared to how they combined in the show. Overall: an 8.5 out of 10, borderline 9 out of 10. This is a superb update to the original figure released from the show, with minor nitpicks to complain over, but this featured is only a sample piece so it will continue to get better. Will the final figure released be worth the asking price? Probably.

Man i might have the original somewhere at my folks, gonna need to visit mom to take a look at it and do a comparison

I reaaaallllyyyyy want to see a remake of Megatron from this series. This series.has some of my favorite designs of all time for both Optimus and Megatron. Still have both the originals put up safely

I have the Japanese re-deco which is black instead of blue and I'm missing the feet pieces for the super mode feet which is needed for the truck mode, and I love it. Though I would have liked it to be blue because it looks better.

Finally. FINALLY, I HAVE FOUND IT! Context: So, a LONG time ago, back when I was four, my second-oldest brother, Matt, used to have this exact figure. Him and my dad would never let me play with it, since they were (key word; "were") planning on selling it, and I hadn't seen it often since then... Until yesterday, when I went into the closet of my brother, Seth's room, and upon a shelf within, there it was, almost complete. It's got EVERYTHING (I think), except functioning electronics, since the batteries that were (and, as a matter of fact, still are) in there are all busted and stuff, but, hey, it's got the matrix of leadership, so that's all that matters, heh heh.

The original figure is arguably the best Optimus Prime toy. A great size, is pretty posable even by today's standards, and most of the gimmicks are in the jetpack so their's no compromises to the core robot mode. Plus all the other bots that powerlink with that further adds to the playability. Completely badass toy, see if you can find it.

Unpopular opinion: BEST DESIGN FOR OPTIMUS

wish he could do the savage claw mode

Double post the battle mask was only deployed in super mode

As someone who owned the original back in the day when Zellers was around, I can safely tell you that the original is fucking gigantic. A lot more robust with a tighter, blockier aesthetic. Not nearly as dynamic-looking as this 3P version but still hefty and incredibly durable, well-articulated, etc. The two main guns on the original were also mounted on the wings in one specific way such that they would point upward in super-mode and only able to come under-arm *from* beneath the wing. Otherwise, everything else seems the same. I do like how model-accurate this 3P is though. The OG figure was not accurate as far as having a neck, wrists, etc. goes.

This looks pretty cool, thou I feel they are adding some extra steps that could easily be scrapped for the final product, such as how his shoulder work with the back pack, thou I doult I'll get him, I wouldn't mind if Hasbro took another shot at him but at a commander price point, this verison, its transformation is 99% the same as the original with a few minor and pointless changes

Imagine if they’ve done Angrybirds Transformers

I’m thought about Optimus don’t have see in any combiner? For Wing Saber and Leobreaker????

There is but there were sacrifices that had to be made because the cannons are attached to longer, more flexible bars for super mode. You have to have them flipped up on top of the wings (not show accurate) or if they are below the wings they are highly unstable and flop down. Promo images are on showz.
