Awesome review. My copy just came in a few hours ago from ShowZ, and so far, it's been great. Only a couple of too tight joints that have gotten better during the transformation, and the wheels on the truck cab are crazy tight - I literally have to push down on the cab just so they roll at all. 🤷🏽‍♂️ Definitely worth the eighty bucks.

11:17 lol glad I’m not the only one with this idea

You assembled that extra smoke pipe in the wrong way. It supposed to stick in from the button penetrate through the top and give you the retractable smoke pipe when you switch the robot mode and vehicle mode. But they are super tight. Not very easy to play around as the design

Excellent and very thorough review. I appreciate when people say "in my opinion" leaving it open to each having their own individual taste. It's polite and I wish that more people would do it.

Memo, Excellent job in being very thorough on your review even incorporating multiple prior versions to make your point across, Thank you. Everything I was wondering about you hit the nail right on the head, I really have no other questions about this newest version. I so hope others that are in the gray about this figure can find this review. Now as for my opinion this is definitely 100% a better version in Alt mode in every single way, in Bot mode I lean towards the one with the Waterslide decals more. I try to be faithful to the G1 series with my collection, and I've never been a fan of the translucent windshield. I also prefer the prior head sculpt as being more accurate to the G1 series. I think they made his eyes to big kind of like NA's Magnus where they look like they're wearing Aviators. Seems like it's never a win, win with MS but regardless he is the best Legends scale Prime period, not even my opinion, it's a straight out fact. Thank you Brother Always looking forward to your reviews👏👍

Dude, you did awesome on this one as well!!!

Great review as always!! my copy is a loose floppy mess, I just took the toon accurate bits and moved them onto the last release. Keep up the great work!

Great review! Saw the same issues on my copy. May I ask where you got the cell shaded stickers for this mold's windows? Thanks!

I wish they could dual mold the chest like the newage figure. It would be perfect to me if they fixed that.

Do you know what the exact name of this release was? Looking on ebay etc and not sure what to look for for this specific version. If this is still your preferred release?

Also do you have the white ultra Magnus version on the way?

Where u get the autobot logo for his shoulder from?

Which version is the one with the opaque blue - cartoon accurate - windows?

What scale is this figure?

Hola yo prefiero el ms b18

I wish they a issue a version of this without the trailer cause I like this optimus the best but I don't want the trailer
