Hasbro- Transformers- Reveal the Shield: Optimus Prime



It’s funny to me that I never had a G1 Optimus Prime growing up. Hell, I didn’t even have a Prime until buying the RID fire truck version from the Car Robots Series (which incidentally is one of my favorites figures to date) and before that it was Optimus Primal from Beast Machines. So I guess that's why I don’t have a huge affinity for the character. Sure, I still have a bunch in my collection, but would rather a good Jetfire, Soundwave or even Ultra Magnus if given the option.

Pros: A nice little mini figure that is easy to transform, has a good enough likness and is pocket sized for on the go adventures.

Cons: Not sure how, but I think they could have done a bit more to form his hands as they just look like claws...
