The Benscollectables video shows these points: (4:30 for hand swivel) and (5:50 for ankle tilt).

I saw the wrist rotation but not swivel or should I say tilt? It looks like it does move slightly on a ball joint but you can't make a talk to the hand type pose. It's a shame because its something relatively easy to do just add a joint with a pin at the wrist. Its simple but adds a ton of possibility options and styles.

For those interested in this big bot Premium Collectables still has some places in round two pre orders, and for the price and size I think it's a great deal, would make a nice centerpiece for any collection

Ok, I see you what mean. I don't think Ben mentions a wrist swivel in the video and I can't tell. It doesn't bother me though, as IMO the articulation is already superb.

This Prime is going to make a great centrepiece. Bring on Megatron!

Quite a number of pics are surfacing on FB of this guy.

Have to admit, these made me chuckle. Pics courtesy of Jack Lee on FB:

Beefcake!!!

Now comes the wait for my PO to arrive!

I regret not placing a PO for this :(

The poseability is off the charts, I hope I like it as much as I expect to. now I just have to find somewhere to display the monster.

I'm thinking i may use mine as a permanant desk buddy at work

I want one. I don't think I realised how big and how good it would be.

Yep I'm so glad I pre-ordered this guy, he is amazing! And that's just the pictures.
