Hi All Thought this may be interesting But TWF2005 Have what they claim as Official picture of the new L. class Premium Optimus Prime.

TWF2005 Link 1 (http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?p=1841468)

And apparantly, it is also going to be a widespread release as well.

TWF2005 Link 2 (http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=162448)

Also, I went to Transformers.com and apparantly they have a survey going on.

"Apologies, in advance if any or/all above has already been mentioned"......:o

The blade on Prime reminds me of the hat on Malibu Stacey. ;)

Indeed! New head plus sword switch paint = increased cashflow.

+1.

The sword just doesn't compare to those custom one floating around on eBay either. I'd rather pay $20 than $90 for a better sword.

Might be the only Premium I bother with as I skipped Leader Prime for the Robovision one.

The Premiums are nice if you don't already own the Leaders already. Otherwise I don't think they're worth it.

Thought you whould all like to know but someone has noticed that......

"they had to make cut-outs on the cab roof for the extended antennae which ruins the vehicle mode."

Yeah, I think the "normal" version of Prime is enough for me! I am very surprised that this version doesn't have lips... ie, no faceplate! With all the discussions of the "importance" of Prime having a mouth so he can "emote", there's no Prime figure without a faceplate! (Not that I would buy that one anyway ;))

On the other hand, the new Bumblebee with battle mask does grab my attention...

Want!
I've just recently finished my repaint of the movie Optimus (leader)
And am really looking forward to this new one too!
That said, I *am* trying to get me one of the Transparent Orange Optimus Blade Customs floating around on ebay as well as a Premium Op...
Looking very much forward to these! :D

Well, yeah - but that's not what I'm talking about. I was referring to the movie series! I mean, everyone went on about how important it was for Prime to have lips (in the movie) so he could "emote", yet none of the movie toys have Prime without a faceplate!

I just find it funny that Hasbro and Michael Bay seem to be on different wavelengths (another example - Brawl/Devastator)

Toys don't really need to emote more than once tho

Also, Hasbro know lips suck :)

apparently optimus had collagen injections before each scene to make his tiny lips stand out

ROFL... yes - I don't think my sarcasm is getting across ;)

I guess what I've been trying to say all along is that Hasbro (like the rest of the intelligent TF universe) thinks the lips suck... unlike Michael Bay! :rolleyes:

It's an even more startling revelation when you consider other people's reactions (including people in other threads on this board) to how Hasbro doesn't always listen to/agree with the TF community.

Oh well, maybe they got it right by accident!;)

I'm sure they've learnt from their mistakes - bring on TF:2!
