>>9097379There he is. The toy that really put movie toys on the map.
Hasbro and Takara put all the growing pains and learning curve of '07 behind them and boy does it show.
I don't think it's too much of a stretch to say that the 11 years of movie toys since were built almost entirely on Prime's momentum.
Transformation is just like riding a bike. I could never forget. My fingers were already swinging things into place and moving on before my brain full registered how far along I was.
I even almost got through transforming him before Optimus introduced himself.
Prime just has such a presence. Even with the light-up gimmick leaving his eyes dead most of the time. They light up green, that's a bit strange.
Crazy that this is the worst looking version of this mold. Takara released it like four times and they all look fantastic.
