you should do one of every "legacy" character who has gotten new figures up to this point (Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave, Prowl, Mirage, Ratchet, Jazz, Ironhide, Sideswipe, Arcee, Hot Rod, Ultra Magnus, etc)
I feel like Siege Prime deserves an honorable mention for being the first modern Prime figure after Hasbro settled on a universal scale and aesthetic with the WFC brand relaunch. Most generations figures before siege had super wonky proportions, limited articulation, no standard ankle tilt etc. so getting Siege Prime felt revolutionary at the time. It's the figure that got me back into TFs.

Armada Optimus is best Optimus. Both in the show and in toy. Glad Hasbro and Takara did him justice with the commander.
Reactivate Prime also has an issue with not being able to hold his blaster properly
I was able to pay for my cousin to be able to have my Holiday Optimus Prime signed by Peter Cullen and my cousin told me that Mr. Cullen said he had not known that they made a Holiday Optimus Prime before he signed mine...so mine is most likely the very first he ever has and I will treasure it mint-in-box forever! I keep it in my safe along with my very first and most precious possession, a little yellow and brown teddy bear I was gifted as a newborn. Blessings! 🥰🥰

My top OPs G1: Earthrise/Netfilx/Selects/Shattered Glass Pre-earth, SS Gamer Alterative universe: legacy Armada Post Earth: WFC Siege, this figure looks more or less like he already visited Earth and returned to Cybertron and been in a lot of battles and had to replace parts and without the need to blend in on Earth, he let it go I look forward to Haslab Omega Prime set, to see what they done with that OP in terms of transformation Desire, a mainline update of Power Master OP with Aplex armour, AKA God Grini Honourable mentions: Classics OP, the desgin that took OP back to his roots TFP First Edition, the figure that paved the way for modern figures in terms of complex transformations on a smaller scale Cybertron Leader, one of the coolest desgins OP has rocked over the years and being able to combine with Wing Saber, makes him look even cooler ROTF leader, a figure that was far more faithful to the movie desgin and also troublesome to transform
how is it even possible to have this many primes??

(…and it looks like you have images of this very version sprinkled throughout parts of the video…) ‘Til all are one! \m/, 😊 ,\m/
I wish I could get ahold of the reactivate one. I was undecided on that or the Gamer Edition but after handling the Gamer Edition I want to try out the reactivate one
IMO, MP-44s is easily one of my top favorites ever and compares to MPM-04 Prime in complexity of transformation. But Armada Commander Prime is also insane. I do enjoy most of em though, VNR, Lunar, C-01, GE, Reactivate, ROTB Mainline and SS, and Animated. Not getting that Earthspark one though. Waiting on MPM-12 Bumblebee Prime, Legacy WFC Prime, Commander 86 Prime, and Omega Prime. And really can't go wrong with most of the SS Primes, just wish I picked up the DOTM SS Prime, also missed the Buzzworthy version too. Hoping they re-release him.

I mean, I also think that the Studio Series Bumblebee movie Prime has another glaring flaw: the wrong truck mode. His alt mode in the movie was a Freightliner, but the toy clearly transforms into the same Marmon truck that Optimus was at the beginning of Age of Extinction. L figure, easily falls outside of my top 10.
NGL, i was so happy to get some Armada figures in the legacy line. Never had the chance to get any as a child, now theyre my favorite Transformers i own. Cant wait for Tidal Wave this summer.

It’s a really good figure! Although I do anticipate what improves will be made once he makes his way into the SS86 line! 🤔
My favorites have to be the Siege and Ss102. I massively prefer how the siege looks compared to the earthrise, it just has way better proportions. Ss102 is also really good.
@Ebirah-N-Eva-Enjoyer
Ай бұрын
I find the proportion problem with Earthrise to be caused by the legs. They have seperate pieces that connect to the crotch to form the pelvis, making them way too long, compared to the legs of Siege that just connect into an already formed pelvis. The torso of Earthrise also doesn't look long enough.
@MassterF
Ай бұрын
@@Ebirah-N-Eva-Enjoyer Thats exactly the issue. The crotch doesn’t look like the crotch, it looks like part of the legs. If they had made the hip section thicker or a different color, it would probably look fine. But as it is, he basically has no crotch and goes straight from torso to legs.

@@mintygreendays I wouldn’t say random. Articulated hands, doors for the truck mode, larger chest piece, and something to clean up his mudflap all seem like very good ideas. Cartoon accuracy is great and all, but adding new posing elements to a figure that’s all about improving on the bricky original seems the way to go.
4:20, looking forward to that upgrade kit! Hopefully, that trailer you just showed will turn into his wingblade jetpack from the series finale.
Honorable mention: - Siege voyager Optimus Prime, who is the first modern Optimus Prime that we ever gotten.
What a good collection of Prime like I had the most of it.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
If you had it where would you put the SS tf one prime? I know it’s a deluxe but I’m curious Nice video can’t wait for all the reissues of these guys 🤩
A bunch of people really thought that this was gonna be the TF1 Optimus
My favorite is bayverse prime, the jetwing version is very cool, even more if you install the dna upgrade kit!!
I feel like Siege OP should be in there somewhere. Without that guy IDK if we would have Earthrise or Laser OP.
So much leadership

I grew up with Armada and *loved* the recent update. One of the best figures of all time! The original leader was wild, too, with that trailer that transformed on its own (even if the motor was a little weak). I hope we get Jetfire and Overload at some point in the Legacy line.
The reactivate Optimus was one of the first Optimus prime figures I bought when I first started collecting. It’s still one of the best figures in my collection. Let’s hope that the game actually comes out.

These are all amazing in my opinion!
Just got the g2 laser prime since yesterday and i love it, but this armada prime looks like a worthy must buy
I have been playing with the hunt for decepticons Optimus prime and I think it might be one of the best
Say what?! And also I just bought Bumblebee Movie Sunstreaker Yesterday
9:01... I had the one on the right growing up as a kid... And i want so desperately to get my hands on another one...
After getting the Reactivate 2 Pack, it’s easily one of my favorite versions of prime to date. Phenomenal truck mode, intuitive transformation, and fantastic robot mode. I CANNOT wait for that game. I’m also in love with the ROTB SS Prime. Wish the truck mode was better, and wish the shoulders weren’t so clunky, but the overall robot mode is the best looking live action prime to date.
For a second, I thought it was one of those videos where they have all the optimism, and they transform them
Prime is awesome in any form, but nothing beats G1. One that I found really cool was the Power of the Primes Optimus, which turns into Orion Pax or combines with the trailer to make Optimus.
I completely agree with all of the rankings that you have done and I am so glad that the Armada Universe version of Prime took the number 1 spot.
The Classics/Henkei voyager Optimus Prime is probably my favorite. Yes, it has kibble, and the articulation is dated, but I like the proportions and unique guns that can be stored on his back.
this is gonna be good

With Armada prime getting reissued, he'll be the next one I'm saving up for. Just got Armada Megatron too, so nows as good as time as ever.
Even though everyone should forget about the Kiss Players; I cannot stress enough how underrated Pickup Truck Optimus Prime is.
Soo mamy Primes, seriouslyly OP Video. Yet we could add more. 11. Missing Link versions 12. Siege Cybertronion Prime 13. Galaxy Force/Cybertron Prine 14. In short order, TF Ine Orion Pax/Optimus Prime 15. SS Commander G1 definitive Optimus Prime 16. A rumored Deluxe OP in Legacy United. No idea what thqt figure looks like or if it still exists. 17. Core Class Optimus, just to mention the Pocket size travel convenient version. 18. Mainline RotB Optimus Prime. Not Perfect but still a unique enough figure to be mention worthy. 19. Lunar Rover Optimus Prime-a pretty crazy idea. But One I really hope to get somehow. 20. Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime. Just got reissued, which is always appreciated. Personally hoping they also reissue the Nemesis Prime repaint so I can get that one.
I know the giant shoulders on the G2 Legacy Prime is supposed to be missiles or guns or something, but they look like speakers to me. So he's Party Prime to me, blasting out the tunes (Jazz is DJing though of course, he's just the equipment)

Which PRIME is the BEST prime?!🤔
Prime vs Prime - I agree, though I dont have the Armada figure. But nice to my fave Prime at least in 2nd place. Please do another one of these for Starscream/seeker molds. My guess is that the newly released legends Cybertron Starscream takes the top spot.
"Well, that's just prime." "Look who's back, and feeling prime!"
I would've even added core class prime with the trailer
Since I don't own anything else other than Earthrise and Armada, I agree with your list. I limit myself to what Optimus Prime I buy cause there's just too many of them. If that SS86 is a lot better than the Earthrise, I'm replacing it on my shelf and I might sell that Earthrise version as well. That's just how I go with how I collect. If there's a better version, I sell the old one for the most part. Keeps my collection tight. I only keep them if they're like the original of the original version but if it's just a modern take, every time there's a better version, I'd get rid of the older one.
Man I really want that Reactivate Optimus! The Gamer Edition is literally for game figures, why would they not release him in that line! The BBM Optimus is kinda slept on nowadays, but it really was a great figure and walked so the ROTB one could run. The BBM one actually does some things better though, like the shoulders and truck. The WFC one is great, but was about 85% complete 😪 I think I actually prefer the RTS Laser Optimus to the Legacy one, was so poseable and had a great silhouette! And yeah, defo agree with number 1, that is one of the best Transformers figures of all time! Nice list mate!
0: original 2007 prime 1: armada prime 2: reactivate prime 3: earthrise prime 4: animated prime 5: bayverse prime 6: wfc prime 7: rotb prime 8: volvo prime 9: bbm prime 10: laser prime
Earthrise prime is great and was my staple for a bit, I think it's replaced by reactivate. I like to think it's his upgraded form. Hope to see more reactivate toys in the near future
Easy ...... Leader ROTF mold. I have the regular mainline version I bought at TRU back in the day, also have the non mainline versions, Buster Prime and the Asia Striker Prime version. Love it!
Oh Yeah!! Til All Are One!!
Yo PvP can we get an updated version of your favourite SS figures?
Missed the opportunity to include the number ranks on each Autobot transition!
Alright, well done, great list, now, let's see one without studio series figures to, even the playing the field
My favourite optimus is the rice of the beasts version or bumblebee movie version
My Top 3 Mainline figures gotta be Earthrise, Bumblebee Movie & Reactivate. Just managed to collect them all & it’s so crazy how high quality all of the figures are…. But I may have to take a look at armada Optimus…. RIP my wallet
If it wasn't a list of "mainline" figures, I would have had the Takara Tomy Lunar Prime in this top-ten easily. It's a really cool take on him. Are you planning on reviewing it at any point? (In fact, being honest, as a figure I would probably have had it in the top 5! I love it!)
A few primes in ny collection, got the Earthrise (dead version), Legacy G2 (Scourge) but my favourite recent one is the gamer edition as I loved the High Moon games. And my daughter loves her mainline ROTB Prime but she's 7 so I'll forgive her slightly poor taste.
My favourite bot mode is the Gamer Edition Optimus from WFC. My favourite vehicle mode is the Legacy Armada Prime
What are the stand you used called and where did you get them
I was thinking about getting Earthrise Prime, but I might wait for the Studio Series Commander instead
Till all are one And long love the last prime
Fully agree with number 1 !
I do have the Legacy Laser, Studio Series Gamer Edition Optimus Prime figures.

Can’t recommend it enough. I passed on him and missed a bunch of sales, had to settle for secondhand. He’s absolutely peak though! Usually I keep my commander class figures on display for a long time because it’s such a task transforming them, but I haven’t been able to stop bringing his big ass down from the shelf whenever I have a spare moment to transform him.
I personally believe you forgot to add TFP Optimus into the list in my personal opinion. But I still enjoy the list and agree with your picks👍👍👍
While I feel this a pretty spot on list, Siege which In my opinion really kicked off this new philosophy of quality/articulated TFs more than deserves a spot on the list. Earthrise definitely improves upon the design, and excited to finally add him to the collection when he again releases as it's a great fun, and quality mainline release. Surprised to see Bee movie Prime rank higher than the ROTB, but only owning the premium release of the first despite the fiddley bits this is phenomenally good for a SS release, and probably the best/cleanest truck mode we've seen for Prime. Excited for the 86 Commander as it could finally be after all these iterations/attempts be the one definitive Prime to command them all. Legacy Armada raised the bar pretty high for Commander class so hopefully he's as good if not better.
They should have used some of the engineering of the Laser Prime mold for G2 Legacy Prime 😮
Glad to see Reactivate Prime land so high on the list. He really is a great figure. It really shows how much these figures depend on some kind of on screen representation to push them out. I hope they continue kicking out Reactivate figures.
I would love to see if studio series can make a remake of bayverse optimus with the leader class mold from the rotf mainline
