you should do one of every "legacy" character who has gotten new figures up to this point (Starscream, Soundwave, Shockwave, Prowl, Mirage, Ratchet, Jazz, Ironhide, Sideswipe, Arcee, Hot Rod, Ultra Magnus, etc)
I feel like Siege Prime deserves an honorable mention for being the first modern Prime figure after Hasbro settled on a universal scale and aesthetic with the WFC brand relaunch. Most generations figures before siege had super wonky proportions, limited articulation, no standard ankle tilt etc. so getting Siege Prime felt revolutionary at the time. It's the figure that got me back into TFs.
Earthrise was the figure that got me back into collecting Transformers as he looked like the original G1 figure but updated. Once I got him, them I went and got Siege Optimus Prime, which is also good.
@@PrimeVsPrimeI am so glad that you put earthrise at second and Armada at first. You're the best. I'm getting earthrise in a few days and have been trying to find Armada since it came out
grew up during armada, had the original one gave it away (shouldn't have done that), but when i saw this legacy on one i just had to get it and started my transformer collection all over again
My top OPs G1: Earthrise/Netfilx/Selects/Shattered Glass Pre-earth, SS Gamer Alterative universe: legacy Armada Post Earth: WFC Siege, this figure looks more or less like he already visited Earth and returned to Cybertron and been in a lot of battles and had to replace parts and without the need to blend in on Earth, he let it go I look forward to Haslab Omega Prime set, to see what they done with that OP in terms of transformation Desire, a mainline update of Power Master OP with Aplex armour, AKA God Grini Honourable mentions: Classics OP, the desgin that took OP back to his roots TFP First Edition, the figure that paved the way for modern figures in terms of complex transformations on a smaller scale Cybertron Leader, one of the coolest desgins OP has rocked over the years and being able to combine with Wing Saber, makes him look even cooler ROTF leader, a figure that was far more faithful to the movie desgin and also troublesome to transform
*My personal Top 3:* The 35th "Cel-shaded" Siege Prime, the Netflix earthrise recolor with the yellow battlemasters, and the Legacy "Laser/G2" Optimus.
I'll keep living earthrise optimus if I get that one I'd want to ask someone to customize him into an earthmode nemesis. I respect the siege but respect pass
@@blueraccoon1088 I enjoy Siege Nemesis Prime being a slightly different mold from Earthrise Optimus Prime. They are similar but very different characters. I understand why you would want an Optimus Prime clone as your Nemesis Prime though.
Amazing vid (as always!)… if you haven’t yet seen it, have a look at the ‘Missing Link’ Optimus Prime (C-01 & C-02)… …it’s a G1 Optimus Prime, but with articulation… …and, it’s AMAZING. (…and it looks like you have images of this very version sprinkled throughout parts of the video…) ‘Til all are one! \m/, 😊 ,\m/
Nice list! Suggestion: add on-screen text for the figure series / release date as well as the number in the list, e.g. "#2 Earthrise Optimus Prime (Leader class, 2020)".
I have a special Optimus prime collection. I don’t even have any of the masterpiece or rare ones and I still have well over a few dozen, not counting repaints
NGL, i was so happy to get some Armada figures in the legacy line. Never had the chance to get any as a child, now theyre my favorite Transformers i own. Cant wait for Tidal Wave this summer.
Just restarted my Prime collection after many years. I gave away about 95% of my collection a good 5-6 years. Had mostly figures from the Armada, Animated, ROFT and DotM. I regret it somewhat but I had at least kept the Prime figures I had. My new collection has Optimus from Rise of the Beasts and Animated Prime, both Voyager Class Figures I believe. I also have a ROTF Legends Class Optimus (and Jetfire). Lastly I have a little die cast metal Prime from the 2007 film as well.
Armada prime is my favourite but has 2 problems. The shin pads that store the feet/hands can be very tight and has caused some people to break. Easy fix is to open them and sand down the posts that the shins swivel on. 2nd is the grill going into the back of the trailer causes the metallic paint to strip. I have been using metallic gundam markers to repaint and a topcoat to seal. The super mode hands also have paint strip if the gun is held too close.
Thanks for mentioning this, unlike many ppl who praise this figure to the moon, whilst completely ignoring its glaring flaws. I'm sorry, but I'm not paying £100 for something that I'd need to manually fix, because it could break otherwise. I'm not a kid, but I like to be able to regularly transform my figure, without fear of it getting damaged, as that is the literal point of a Transformers toy.
I wish I could get ahold of the reactivate one. I was undecided on that or the Gamer Edition but after handling the Gamer Edition I want to try out the reactivate one
i already knew earthrise prime would be near the top of the list, such an amazing figure says there's gonna be a reissue coming september, or at least that's what bbts says, so maybe i'll get my grubby little hands on this guy at last!!
I just got my Armada Prime and I’ve been absolutely blown away by how damn good he is. Any chance you’ll be doing a video on his DNA designs upgrade kit? I’m still on the fence about ordering it.
@@mintygreendays I wouldn’t say random. Articulated hands, doors for the truck mode, larger chest piece, and something to clean up his mudflap all seem like very good ideas. Cartoon accuracy is great and all, but adding new posing elements to a figure that’s all about improving on the bricky original seems the way to go.
After getting the Reactivate 2 Pack, it’s easily one of my favorite versions of prime to date. Phenomenal truck mode, intuitive transformation, and fantastic robot mode. I CANNOT wait for that game. I’m also in love with the ROTB SS Prime. Wish the truck mode was better, and wish the shoulders weren’t so clunky, but the overall robot mode is the best looking live action prime to date.
IMO, MP-44s is easily one of my top favorites ever and compares to MPM-04 Prime in complexity of transformation. But Armada Commander Prime is also insane. I do enjoy most of em though, VNR, Lunar, C-01, GE, Reactivate, ROTB Mainline and SS, and Animated. Not getting that Earthspark one though. Waiting on MPM-12 Bumblebee Prime, Legacy WFC Prime, Commander 86 Prime, and Omega Prime. And really can't go wrong with most of the SS Primes, just wish I picked up the DOTM SS Prime, also missed the Buzzworthy version too. Hoping they re-release him.
The hype is even greater now for the SS86 Commander Class Optimus, I can't wait for your review..... Also I can't wait for a review on the KITT Colab Project Knight.
0: original 2007 prime 1: armada prime 2: reactivate prime 3: earthrise prime 4: animated prime 5: bayverse prime 6: wfc prime 7: rotb prime 8: volvo prime 9: bbm prime 10: laser prime
I grew up with Armada and *loved* the recent update. One of the best figures of all time! The original leader was wild, too, with that trailer that transformed on its own (even if the motor was a little weak). I hope we get Jetfire and Overload at some point in the Legacy line.
My favorites have to be the Siege and Ss102. I massively prefer how the siege looks compared to the earthrise, it just has way better proportions. Ss102 is also really good.
I find the proportion problem with Earthrise to be caused by the legs. They have seperate pieces that connect to the crotch to form the pelvis, making them way too long, compared to the legs of Siege that just connect into an already formed pelvis. The torso of Earthrise also doesn't look long enough.
@@An-Eva-Enjoyer Thats exactly the issue. The crotch doesn’t look like the crotch, it looks like part of the legs. If they had made the hip section thicker or a different color, it would probably look fine. But as it is, he basically has no crotch and goes straight from torso to legs.
Glad to see Reactivate Prime land so high on the list. He really is a great figure. It really shows how much these figures depend on some kind of on screen representation to push them out. I hope they continue kicking out Reactivate figures.
The reactivate Optimus was one of the first Optimus prime figures I bought when I first started collecting. It’s still one of the best figures in my collection. Let’s hope that the game actually comes out.
Can’t recommend it enough. I passed on him and missed a bunch of sales, had to settle for secondhand. He’s absolutely peak though! Usually I keep my commander class figures on display for a long time because it’s such a task transforming them, but I haven’t been able to stop bringing his big ass down from the shelf whenever I have a spare moment to transform him.
While I feel this a pretty spot on list, Siege which In my opinion really kicked off this new philosophy of quality/articulated TFs more than deserves a spot on the list. Earthrise definitely improves upon the design, and excited to finally add him to the collection when he again releases as it's a great fun, and quality mainline release. Surprised to see Bee movie Prime rank higher than the ROTB, but only owning the premium release of the first despite the fiddley bits this is phenomenally good for a SS release, and probably the best/cleanest truck mode we've seen for Prime. Excited for the 86 Commander as it could finally be after all these iterations/attempts be the one definitive Prime to command them all. Legacy Armada raised the bar pretty high for Commander class so hopefully he's as good if not better.
Prime is awesome in any form, but nothing beats G1. One that I found really cool was the Power of the Primes Optimus, which turns into Orion Pax or combines with the trailer to make Optimus.
Man I really want that Reactivate Optimus! The Gamer Edition is literally for game figures, why would they not release him in that line! The BBM Optimus is kinda slept on nowadays, but it really was a great figure and walked so the ROTB one could run. The BBM one actually does some things better though, like the shoulders and truck. The WFC one is great, but was about 85% complete 😪 I think I actually prefer the RTS Laser Optimus to the Legacy one, was so poseable and had a great silhouette! And yeah, defo agree with number 1, that is one of the best Transformers figures of all time! Nice list mate!
Since I don't own anything else other than Earthrise and Armada, I agree with your list. I limit myself to what Optimus Prime I buy cause there's just too many of them. If that SS86 is a lot better than the Earthrise, I'm replacing it on my shelf and I might sell that Earthrise version as well. That's just how I go with how I collect. If there's a better version, I sell the old one for the most part. Keeps my collection tight. I only keep them if they're like the original of the original version but if it's just a modern take, every time there's a better version, I'd get rid of the older one.
Easy ...... Leader ROTF mold. I have the regular mainline version I bought at TRU back in the day, also have the non mainline versions, Buster Prime and the Asia Striker Prime version. Love it!
The Classics/Henkei voyager Optimus Prime is probably my favorite. Yes, it has kibble, and the articulation is dated, but I like the proportions and unique guns that can be stored on his back.
Soo mamy Primes, seriouslyly OP Video. Yet we could add more. 11. Missing Link versions 12. Siege Cybertronion Prime 13. Galaxy Force/Cybertron Prine 14. In short order, TF Ine Orion Pax/Optimus Prime 15. SS Commander G1 definitive Optimus Prime 16. A rumored Deluxe OP in Legacy United. No idea what thqt figure looks like or if it still exists. 17. Core Class Optimus, just to mention the Pocket size travel convenient version. 18. Mainline RotB Optimus Prime. Not Perfect but still a unique enough figure to be mention worthy. 19. Lunar Rover Optimus Prime-a pretty crazy idea. But One I really hope to get somehow. 20. Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime. Just got reissued, which is always appreciated. Personally hoping they also reissue the Nemesis Prime repaint so I can get that one.
Prime vs Prime - I agree, though I dont have the Armada figure. But nice to my fave Prime at least in 2nd place. Please do another one of these for Starscream/seeker molds. My guess is that the newly released legends Cybertron Starscream takes the top spot.
I know the giant shoulders on the G2 Legacy Prime is supposed to be missiles or guns or something, but they look like speakers to me. So he's Party Prime to me, blasting out the tunes (Jazz is DJing though of course, he's just the equipment)

Earthrise prime is great and was my staple for a bit, I think it's replaced by reactivate. I like to think it's his upgraded form. Hope to see more reactivate toys in the near future
Loved this comparison! Can you please do the same for the other 3 main characters of the franchise, Bumblebee, Megatron, and Starscream? I along with @primusthecreator would definitely wanna see what you got for Bumblebee.
A few primes in ny collection, got the Earthrise (dead version), Legacy G2 (Scourge) but my favourite recent one is the gamer edition as I loved the High Moon games. And my daughter loves her mainline ROTB Prime but she's 7 so I'll forgive her slightly poor taste.
If it wasn't a list of "mainline" figures, I would have had the Takara Tomy Lunar Prime in this top-ten easily. It's a really cool take on him. Are you planning on reviewing it at any point? (In fact, being honest, as a figure I would probably have had it in the top 5! I love it!)
💥Who would want to see a 40 Years of BUMBLEBEE or MEGATRON ranking?!🤔
Megatron. (About to release an edit for him so that’s why)
Meg
Megatron Please 🙏

@@PrimeVsPrimeI am so glad that you put earthrise at second and Armada at first. You're the best. I'm getting earthrise in a few days and have been trying to find Armada since it came out

same!
Absolutely mine too! Very engineered figure!
grew up during armada, had the original one gave it away (shouldn't have done that), but when i saw this legacy on one i just had to get it and started my transformer collection all over again
wish it had a minicon tho
@@braydentaylor3851That’s exactly my thoughts on that figure! All it needs is Sparkplug!
Armada Optimus is best Optimus. Both in the show and in toy. Glad Hasbro and Takara did him justice with the commander.
Still waiting on a proper 86 Optimus prime. Not a restyling that takes inspiration. Just a straight up 86 Optimus prime
A studio series commander class 86 prime is coming soon.
Commander for this year
What so you guys think of the recent ss86 prime?
My top OPs
G1: Earthrise/Netfilx/Selects/Shattered Glass
Pre-earth, SS Gamer
Alterative universe: legacy Armada
Post Earth: WFC Siege, this figure looks more or less like he already visited Earth and returned to Cybertron and been in a lot of battles and had to replace parts and without the need to blend in on Earth, he let it go
I look forward to Haslab Omega Prime set, to see what they done with that OP in terms of transformation
Desire, a mainline update of Power Master OP with Aplex armour, AKA God Grini
Honourable mentions:
Classics OP, the desgin that took OP back to his roots
TFP First Edition, the figure that paved the way for modern figures in terms of complex transformations on a smaller scale
Cybertron Leader, one of the coolest desgins OP has rocked over the years and being able to combine with Wing Saber, makes him look even cooler
ROTF leader, a figure that was far more faithful to the movie desgin and also troublesome to transform
Reactivate Prime also has an issue with not being able to hold his blaster properly
*My personal Top 3:* The 35th "Cel-shaded" Siege Prime, the Netflix earthrise recolor with the yellow battlemasters, and the Legacy "Laser/G2" Optimus.
We are optimuses prime.
Pov non binary optimuse prime
We Are!!!!
Till all are one
We are coming

YEEEEAHHHH BOIIIIIIIIIIII
no.
I Think My Favorite Optimus Prime Figure Is Commander Class Armada Optimus Prime!
This was probably one of the most interesting videos I've seen in some time!
Armada prime is my favourite but has 2 problems.
The shin pads that store the feet/hands can be very tight and has caused some people to break.
Easy fix is to open them and sand down the posts that the shins swivel on.
2nd is the grill going into the back of the trailer causes the metallic paint to strip.
I have been using metallic gundam markers to repaint and a topcoat to seal.
The super mode hands also have paint strip if the gun is held too close.

It’s a really good figure! Although I do anticipate what improves will be made once he makes his way into the SS86 line! 🤔
A bunch of people really thought that this was gonna be the TF1 Optimus
4:20, looking forward to that upgrade kit! Hopefully, that trailer you just showed will turn into his wingblade jetpack from the series finale.
I’m not a huge fan of Armada, but I had to get him. The figure is fantastic. So much fun to transform, too.
I just got my Armada Prime and I’ve been absolutely blown away by how damn good he is. Any chance you’ll be doing a video on his DNA designs upgrade kit? I’m still on the fence about ordering it.
The DNA Designs upgrade kit for Armada Prime genuinely sucks because it's just random ideas and not stuff to make him more cartoon-accurate.
@@mintygreendays I wouldn’t say random. Articulated hands, doors for the truck mode, larger chest piece, and something to clean up his mudflap all seem like very good ideas.

You might be right but mp 44’s price is astronomical. And I still prefer mp 10 even though it’s less accurate
I completely agree with all of the rankings that you have done and I am so glad that the Armada Universe version of Prime took the number 1 spot.
You left out siege prime 😢

Honorable mention:
- Siege voyager Optimus Prime, who is the first modern Optimus Prime that we ever gotten.

PrimeVsPrime what music do you use for your videos?
"Well, that's just prime."
"Look who's back, and feeling prime!"
Funnily enough, I got Volvo Optimus for my birthday and Armada Optimus is my absolute favorite out of all my Big OP figures
Even though everyone should forget about the Kiss Players; I cannot stress enough how underrated Pickup Truck Optimus Prime is.
With Armada prime getting reissued, he'll be the next one I'm saving up for. Just got Armada Megatron too, so nows as good as time as ever.
Since I don't own anything else other than Earthrise and Armada, I agree with your list. I limit myself to what Optimus Prime I buy cause there's just too many of them.

I feel like Siege OP should be in there somewhere. Without that guy IDK if we would have Earthrise or Laser OP.

20. Movie Masterpiece Bumblebee Movie Optimus Prime. Just got reissued, which is always appreciated. Personally hoping they also reissue the Nemesis Prime repaint so I can get that one.
Prime vs Prime - I agree, though I dont have the Armada figure. But nice to my fave Prime at least in 2nd place. Please do another one of these for Starscream/seeker molds. My guess is that the newly released legends Cybertron Starscream takes the top spot.
Very happy I have all of these in my Optimus collection. Special shout out to the oddball in the squad, Optimus Exprime
What are the stand you used called and where did you get them
9:01... I had the one on the right growing up as a kid... And i want so desperately to get my hands on another one...
I know the giant shoulders on the G2 Legacy Prime is supposed to be missiles or guns or something, but they look like speakers to me. So he's Party Prime to me, blasting out the tunes (Jazz is DJing though of course, he's just the equipment)
Yo PvP can we get an updated version of your favourite SS figures?
I think I like the cel shaded Siege Optimus better than Earthrise
That is really cool too!

Why isn't Reactivate on #1? And why is ARMADA UNIVERSE on #1?!?!?
Because Armada is clearly the best one, with the coolest design👌🏻
I will not tolerate deformation to the name of Laser Optimus.
Earthrise prime is great and was my staple for a bit, I think it's replaced by reactivate. I like to think it's his upgraded form. Hope to see more reactivate toys in the near future
Loved this comparison! Can you please do the same for the other 3 main characters of the franchise, Bumblebee, Megatron, and Starscream? I along with @primusthecreator would definitely wanna see what you got for Bumblebee.
I’m so pumped!
I hope you enjoy it! 🤩
A few primes in ny collection, got the Earthrise (dead version), Legacy G2 (Scourge) but my favourite recent one is the gamer edition as I loved the High Moon games. And my daughter loves her mainline ROTB Prime but she's 7 so I'll forgive her slightly poor taste.
Earthrise, SS Gamer Edition, SS Bumblebee, SS RotB, SS Bayverse Optimus's figures definitely top tier!
I am Optimus prime, and I send this message across the multiverse, we are here, till all are one!
I personally believe you forgot to add TFP Optimus into the list in my personal opinion. But I still enjoy the list and agree with your picks👍👍👍
My favourite bot mode is the Gamer Edition Optimus from WFC. My favourite vehicle mode is the Legacy Armada Prime
The first studio series prime you showed. Was it in the 15th anniversary 5 pack?? Cause I don’t remember it have blue shin pads on his legs
this is gonna be good
Thank you! I hope you like it!🤩🔥
@@PrimeVsPrime loved it and i love ur content
If it wasn't a list of "mainline" figures, I would have had the Takara Tomy Lunar Prime in this top-ten easily. It's a really cool take on him. Are you planning on reviewing it at any point?
(In fact, being honest, as a figure I would probably have had it in the top 5! I love it!)
Missed the opportunity to include the number ranks on each Autobot transition!
If you had it where would you put the SS tf one prime? I know it’s a deluxe but I’m curious
Nice video can’t wait for all the reissues of these guys 🤩
United Animated Prime with the trailer is going to be the...(if it includes a functioning water hose) GOAT!
