I generally take the batteries out, the sound bites annoy me after a while. Especially ROTF Prime. His came out straight away, while I was in the middle of transforming him.
'I am Optimus Prime'
'I am Optimus Prime'

Yes I know you're Optimus Prime, now please be quiet. This is hard enough as it is
Hahaha, yeah... him and SUPAH FI-YAA CONVOOOY!
Oh, and Energon Scorponok's stupid tail sound...
I don't find Sentinel Prime's gimmick quite as annoying as ROTF Leader Prime, Energon Scorponok or Super Fire Convoy though, I guess cos the button for his sound gimmick is relatively more out of the way. I only triggered it off by accident once or twice (whereas you lose count with those other toys!)
I know its been said, great looking bot, but extremely fiddly to transform.
My Sentinel Prime arrived yesterday morning. I was originally somewhat disappointed (not least of which with the fact that mine came without instructions! I was a bit worried when I opened the box that I might have have been 'missing' missiles or accessories that would have come in the instructions-bag, but I don't think I did so it's not that big a loss.) I transformed mine to vehicle mode for the second time today and my second impressions are much better. Now that I've got the feel of it, it's a good solid toy, and as long as the parts are aligned, they click into place creating a nice brick of a fire engine toy (even better with the shield and sword locked away.) The shield is great fun too - I've spent many a minute clicking that thing back and forth from shield to scissors and back again. In robot mode the feet are clever and the guy is memorable and imposing enough to be a new Transfomers icon. (And hopefully, like all good Sentinel Primes, he'll be a jerk.)
My one question to people whose toys actually came with instructions and didn't throw out their boxart is - what are the grey rear-nozzle-hose/high heels/soft-serve-dispenser parts designed for? They don't seem to do anything in either mode.
What part exactly are you referring to?Quote:

You're meant to flip them out for his vehicular assault mode.
