Prime looks like he's been bench pressing devastator
If only Devastator existed in this continuity.
That's because...he has. He's uniting his fellow bots inn weight lifting compatitions.
"Autobots...Transform and buff out! LOL 😮
And he's been shoulder pressing scorponok
More like Omega Supreme
GAINS
That prime looks like he’s been doing 30 pushups every second of everyday for 10 years
Unpopular opinion: animated has optimus’s best alt mode
Facts
Transformers Animated came around when I was pretty depressed and gave me something to help keep my head above water. Very fond memories of that show.
They've done a very good job mixing the Animated and CHUG aesthetics. The look of this figure is unmistakably that of Animated Prime, even if he's on the blockier side. There's no mistaking this for any other take on the character. Legacy's come a long way with stuff like that since Prime Arcee and Bulkhead. Unlike with Bulkhead, I'm not going "This is a good Optimus, but it shouldn't have been sold as Animated Optimus." This is a genuinely nice take on Animated Prime.
Funny enough Legacy Bulkhead genuinely works better as Animated Bulkhead than he does as Prime Bulkhead. A customizer on r/Transformers did an amazing job of converting it into an (admittedly rather ripped-looking) take on Animated Bulkhead.
I'm waiting for the retool for bulkhead. I saw the custom, its so good and it looks like he prototyped his custom with paper and tape so a retool for a proper animated bulkhead is too easy for hasbro not to do. Especially since they've remade that figure like 3 times already, im waiting for the inevitable 4th that has a better chest and shoulders and head paint. But it really just comes down to paint. I mean if they want to make the shield look like it isn't just made of fabric too, that would be awesome too. Hell, I might even just grab the prime version of bulkhead if there's an upgrade kit that releases with a new riot shield and alternate chest. Idk there's just too much different with bulkhead as is for me to jump at it yet, but I definitely agree that it works as a legacy animated bulkhead better than a prime version any day
I just really hope they aren't counting that original Legacy Bulkhead as the "Animated" version, because it looks more like a hypothetical G1 version of Bulkhead.
Maybe Bulkhead started hitting the gym and laying off the oil
I absolutely agree about the shelf presence of this guys. He just looks heroic. I hope we eventually get some Animated Decepticons to go along with him and the rest of his crew.
I would kill for a Lugnut
I adore Transformers Animated because they all transform like magical girls.
My partner and I are watching rn and she loves the "sailor moon transformation sequences". I told her everybody does, and supplied power rangers as supportive evidence in addition to TFA and TF in general. But everybody loves a good transformation sequence 💚
I like how they molded in a steering wheel and dashboard into the chest even though you can't see it in either mode
And how they did the chest solid plastic with inserts instead of doing it full clear plastic painted like Bee
Even behind the shoulders, have seats
@@lalo198080
There's Sunglasses Holders in the roof of the cab
I'm so glad they skipped the facemask because Animated Optimus is the only version who just looks more "right" without it. I can't wait to get this guy, I'm so glad Best TF Cartoon is finally getting more love.
Although this one could've used a hint of paint near the lips. It was so faint I thought his chin was his mouth for a second.
true but i wish they included it as an optional accessory
I wouldn't be surprised if they do a facemask headsculpt if they release a wing pack version of this guy.
@@DevinGatesit looks a lot better in person. Owning it in hand, I was surprised to see it looking like this on camera.
@@Andyjoe522 I'd be okay with that, but regular Animated Optimus just looks weird to me with the mask so I'm glad the general release doesn't have it. I wish he had the pouty lips, though.
I don't see it as an update, but as another interpretation yes and it complies with what a current figure should, no, it is not going to replace the original version, but it is a good alternative.
Honestly, without the striking stylization of Animated, all the smooth lines and stuff, the figure loses a lot (not all) of what made Animated Prime's design work.
that lower torso in particular is a huge eyesore
Now we just need animated ratchet
I haven't even watched Animated, but this is still an Amazing Prime. His "presence" as Emgo calls it, is very real on my shelf.
what i found neat was the detail on the inside of the chest
And back of the shoulders too.
Broooo this prime was my childhood
Mine as well. I grew up on Animated and the first two films.
Oh god my CHILDHOOD!!! Just wish he had his trailer to make him a full Fire engine
Also, that trailer should be his powermaster armor that he was supposed to have in the unfortunately canceled 4th season of Transformers Animated.
I wouldn't be able to pick a favorite trailer, I hope 3rd part makes all the versions. His emergency lights come off so he can recreate the look of one episode when he had the classic trailor. Idk this figure is great
One of my favorite versions of Optimus, I am so glad he and Bumblebee were among those picked for Transformers Animated representation. And where there is Optimus, Megatron is sure to follow! I can't wait!
Megs will absolutely follow hopefully, but I would love to see Animated Shockwave/Longarm be updated as a legacy figure.
@@servosmash7588 WOOHOO!!!!
My favorite incarnation of Optimus Prime, especially the phenomenal voice performance of David Kaye. I like him better than the G1 version.
Did you know that the handle of the axe is also bloosh compatible?
I also noticed how your original Animated Optimus Prime had the rare grey Autobot insignia.
Seeing this honestly makes me curious if we might potentially see a Legacy Animated Lugnut and Blackout.
Finger crossed for animated blitzwing
Oh I'd love to see Lugnut. Also Soundwave
I love how he basically uses the same transformation as the old deluxe animated optimus
You mean votager right?
(Its just that but no automorph waist probably)
@gabrielchee8470 Nope, this figure shares similar engineering from the original Animated Deluxe class Optimus Prime, earth mode and Cybertron mode.
@@gabrielchee8470 No, indeed the original Deluxe toys. The way the chest, backpack, and arms transform is the same as the original Deluxes
Awesome figure, hope they do more TFA figures
I'd take a new Wreck-Gar. He dares to be stupid!
I agree more TFA characters would be nice, And a Wreck-Gar with a flippable Autobot / Decepticon insignia would be nice.
I agree with both of yall, I would also like to see a updated lugnut as well.
I'd love a Ratchet and a retool of Legacy Bulkhead to look more like his Animated counterpart. A customizer on r/Transformers proved the latter to be a very promising idea.
I hope we get a Sari Sumdac figure for the Legacy toy line. Her season 3 design would translate well into toy form.
16:19 the rising bit never ends
This is an amazing figure and an amazing review
I am almost done with a simple/small armor set for this figure. hopefully people will like it when I am done. if it does well I have it in mind to do a large armor set to make him look like a full firetruck in truck mode
God i want this figure to have it next to my voyager animated prime
Hasbro finally acknowledges Animated
Easy Roman reigns
@@Gett_Raccd Oh, yeah. I forgot about that.
Yes, it was awsome!
I wouldn't be surprised if Hasbro reuse him to make heatwave. All they have to do is repaint him and change the chest and head.
We're getting a motor master out of it
I won't be surprised if he gets redecoed into Animated Universe Toxitron.
And a Animated Universe Nemesis Prime
16:24 animated Optimus: who are you and why do you look like me?
G1 Optimus Prime: I look like you because I am you, just a bit older.
Animated Optimus Prime: Oh.
Bros bust is giving shockwave a run for his money
David Kaye voice as Optimus Prime in transformers animated
"Well that's just Prime.".... wait, wrong Optimus.
Good, he looks really cool
This probably my favorite figure, period sine the Animated line. It makes me feel like a kid again every time I look at it.
Same. I got prowl and bee, bulkhead has me tempted even tho he's the prime version. I'm waiting for a retool to be the animated version, cuz he kinda works better as an animated bulkhead than a prime version
Yeah, I'm sold. I never had the original and this guy is an almost perfect update to him, think it's time to rewatch Animated.
I’m planning to get this soon.
I can definitely understand why some folks are disappointed at these toys for not going more fully with the Animated (or Prime) designs. Personally I like them a lot, and I justify it as these designs not "replacing" the original, but being new forms that Optimus or Bumblebee or Arcee take when going on a universe-hopping adventure to say, the G1 continuity. I would love to see a comic or even just a digital novel with that concept!
👍👍👍
I think that's a great way to view Legacy's aesthetic for Animated and Prime. If I wanted a 1:1 of the original figures, I would have tried harder to buy the Animated and Prime when they were releasing. Lol
@@terrorofdeath3280I would be cool with the concept of it if there was a show or comic for but is a toy without that backing it it’s dumb
This probably has one of the cleanest robot mode of any of the most recent figures. The engineer did a great job tucking everything in. Only thing I'm iffy on is the axe handle. When it's retracted on mine it never stays still and I have to extend it if I want him to hold it in a certain position.
Prime looks good
I just got this figure at a Walmart yesterday, and this Optimus Prime looks fantastic! As a fan of TFA, this modern update to this version of Optimus Prime is one of the best figures from the Legacy toy line.
YES
This is a very nice updated version of Transformers Animated Optimus Prime. I'm definitely getting this one. Hey, EmGo. Awesome review, as always!
Glad they are still rising.
Finally. It showed up at my local shop. I did not hesitated and regretted buying this. Optimus prime animated version has been a part of my childhood memories and the reason I love Transformers franchise. Waiting for megatron animated version.
Yes! Yes! Yes! It has been far too long since.... We RISE!! This Optimus looks great, and I can't wait to add him to my collection. Animated was an all-time great series.
I love Animated Prime, But I love more of his old toy and legacy one, the legacy reminds me of Minecraft Transformers and animated Optimus prime from McDonald’s, I had this figure once
I love Emgo316's skits. 😂😂😂 They always make me smile and laugh.
Seeing G1 Optimus giving Animated OP praise was both funny and nice to see
Well done
I’ve Ben waiting to see this review
It's been all deluxes for me for a while, this is the first bigger figure I'm gonna splurge for when i find it
Anyone else hoping for a "flight pack" expansion? It really feels like the removeable lights and the ports on the feet would support such a thing
That and/or the rest of his fire truck mode.
Cant wait for the Motormaster and Toxitron releases!
I'm personally waiting for an Animated Soundwave with his Laserbeak guitar. I want my bots to be able to bring down the house with the power of rock. LOL
Not going to lie I feel like Emgo gets some of his inspiration from Rick and Morty for his ending skits 😂
I love the details inside the chest with the steering wheel and dashboard and behind the shoulders have the seats
Another nice review but that skit in the end is pure brilliance !
Prime stole my protein powder :(
I love his design, Imagine though an Animated Show Toxicus version of this legacy figure 11:12
Huge Axe
Hasbro is killing it with these figures lately.
Im really liking this design. it's time to place him on my Optimus shelf.
I'm not sure what it is, but there is something I REEEEEEALLY like about this mold. Not sure about the older one, the axe that comes with the older one in particular is...questionable, I think. This one looks like a fairly unique transformation and I appreciate that as well. Might pick it up at some point, cool review man. :o)
it's actually reused engineering, the torso is almost 1-1 the delux animated prime toy transformation, the only difference is the wheels didn't fold down on the original delux
So glad they updated the axe cause the original was a total peice of crap
Hollow Hasbro keeps them upgrade kit makers in plenty of business.
We’ll probably get a DNA design upgrade kit for him
I've had some luck finding legacy united figures recently! I got all the core class and Tigerhawk now, hoping to find the deluxes and voyagers soon. I pray Animated Prime isnt rare 😭🙏
Honestly don’t get the hate for this guy. He’s just Animated Prime, I don’t see much different between the heavily exaggerated animation model and this. I’d say HasTak did a good job with him
It could use a bit more paint in some spots, but they genuinely did a great job mixing the Animated and CHUG looks with the Animated toys so far, with this guy and Bee being even better than Prowl who I already liked. They've certainly been taking the feedback they've gotten since Prime Arcee and Bulkhead to heart.
my only nitpick of it is the hidden third wheels by the bumper up front I know he only had two sets in the show but the way they did the second set that far back throws the proportions off for me... i would have liked the front ones to be uncovered but i understand why they did it to keep it somewhat show accurate.
I like the interior that they gave this TFA prime
For the future wave they have already announced Animated Motormaster, which will be used this mold. I think this is great news.
I have a feeling , Animated Optimus Prime is going to be in a lot of people's top ten for 2024 but we still have a whole year to go
Maybe the slots on the underside of his feet hint at a jetwing upgrade in the future
They definitely put a lot of effort into this voyager class David Kaye. Wonder if they’ll do a leader class variation with the battle mask and the wing set
Admittedly, very refreshing seeing a prime that doesn't transform the same way as all the other ones do
I think is the only iteration of Optimus Prime to ever laugh
G1 Optimus laughed.
Man, this is a deluxe. I swear all the class sizes nowadays have shrunk down a class. What's a voyager now would've been considered a deluxe back in the good days. 6:25 case in point. THAT'S a voyager.
I feel like they set the front wheels too far back myself (the ones you can see anyways) personally I would have liked the third front wheel to be uncovered by the bumper and have it looked like a real 18 wheeled fire truck, but i can kinda let it slide because hey, future fire truck and all that... it just makes the proportions a bit off. but it does match the original's bumper a bit more.
Can you please review those Legacy United core classes?
Faithful to the show or not, this is still an impressive prime even if animated isn’t exactly my cup of tea
I absolutely agree Prime. That is truely an amazing statement. 😮
Perhaps we could get a trailer or armor pack… i remember seeing a pic on the net about Prime’s alt mode having an extended section to make it look like a full fire truck similar to Cybertron Prime
Who knows. Something like that may be in the cards down the road. I wouldn't be surprised if they put out a leader class figure later that is slightly reworked to incorperate that. Hence the trailer hook port. Although I wouldn't bee shocked to see a 3rd party company do that for them either.
In the mean time we can transform and buff out with this beefy Prime.
@@ZedMazaus480 Indeed and I would love to see a Supermode Animated Prime concept...
In the show he often had a full fire engine he hauled around. Allegedly if season 4 had happened we would have finally gotten a toy with that fire engine trailer transforming into Power Master armor for him.
@@Andyjoe522 Huh, I didn't know that. Grant it I barely caught any of the series, or get more than a few of the figures.. I'm still kicking myself for never picking up the animated safeguard back then. That would be an amazing updated figure If they made it with current engineering. I just wonder if both halves would be deluxes that would combine into a voyager, or would they upscale them since they're 2 jet robots that become 1 larger robot.
This is Optimus after he became Optimus Magnus in Season 4.
Not a bad figure at all. I just don't need anymore OP's. Now if they give this mold to Thunderclash or Sentinel Prime and we've got a deal!
Hopefully someone makes filler parts for primes arms and legs
Man, looks like Robot Kingdom is a little ahead of the curve! I just got an email from BBTS saying that my preorder will be in soon, but it hasn't even shipped yet. Is Robot Kingdom generally a good company to work with?
I was going to avoid picking up Animated Prime, just so I didn't have a 2nd Prime in my budding collection, but this figure looks too good not to get. Plus Animated Prime just holds a special place in my heart.
The wheels feel the cheapest. I hope the add-on sets fix it
It’s time to unite the evolutionary legacy of the kingdom’s rising siege
This guy looks like he could be Figure of the year material, and we're only in January.
Between this, the upcoming SS86 commander, and any other surprise Optimus toys, we might be in for another year where half of everyone's top 10 Transformers of the year are Optimus Primes. Especially if we get some good Optimus and/or Orion Pax toys for Transformers One.
RISE!!!!
Need a animated Megatron in his Cybertronian vehicle mode, before the helicopter
Once the Titans Return it'll be our Legacy of the Power of the Primes to Siege the Earthrise Kingdom & win the Combiner Wars with the Evolution of the United Autobots!
This reminds me of how small figures are
I hope to find this Prime at a store because I never got one.
Custom to Thunderclash
I'm actually confused about the original voyager one, the voyager I had was different and had an actual axe
Maybe you're thinking of the Deluxe class Earth mode one or maybe even the large Supreme class one.
Let's hope they do animated Megatron
Ifs like if jhonny bravo was a transformer he would be this one
Is time to Unite the Legacy of Rising
How this not become a meme
Prime of War anyone? He just gives me those vibes
You see there Animated Optimus Prime is drawn for attention.
I do like how he poses but it could be more better
Bro you can't ASK for anything better
Not perfect, but so close to it it seems
Do you mind sharing what type of camera you use for your videos? They look so good!
Sony FDR-AX43
Any recommendation for a cheaper one to start?
