Not only did it not have articulation it didn't even have legs it had these giant snap together pieces that Kinda looked like legs but even as a kid It totally sucked
new favorite trailer setup is attaching the robot mode gun into the the top of the little missile rack and having it point through the gaps at the fore end of the trailer. the gun will clear the top of optimus in truck mode, and can even act as an artillery piece by removing the trailer treads from their tab slots, and tilting the whole trailer up. the treads will keep it more or less balanced
It's nice to be able to rotate both arms 360 without worry or fear of breaking the wires. ^ ^ (The original Armada figure had a light up gimmick but I broke mine right away not realizing there were wires in the whole arm......)
0:17 cause people at Hasbro is compensating for something. The toy isn't even packaged that when you pull it out of the box it gives you a wow factor like MP's or other premium priced toys. He's just in the center and since I tend to keep commander class boxes, they take more space than I want them to.
I bought this without even thinking because of how good this figure is Ps: Also the front bumper peices can easily transformed if you grab by the outer edge and pull. It will pop out and easily will move to the the place for transformation
I remember my parents getting me the original figure for my 11th birthday when Armada was still on Cartoon Network; and I absolutely loved it. I’ll definitely be getting this.
Love this figure. Dont know if it's just me getting used to my figure or its some other thing, but the two issues I had with it (the front grill piece not clicking in right and the shoulder pieces popping off) happened less and less.
Pre-ordered the reissue. This is a massive step up from the original Armada toy, which I was lucky enough to own as a kid. Articulation for base Optimus is infinitely better, and I like that the smoke stacks are now just attached. The OG toy you could swap between a clear, smoke grey or a solid silver-ish which made them prone to falling off all the time. I also remember his joints being kinda loose, but that’s probably bc I played with him all the time. The super mode sacrificed pretty much all articulation for electronics and gimmicks. That’s just what I remember
One minor mistransformation I noticed on the Super Mode: the feet for Prime's regular mode flip up to fill in the gaps on the back of the Super Mode forearms. Doesn't affect articulation or anything, just helps clean the arms up a little more.
0:43 the rear wheels on mine also bended outward like that. Cant really lock it. That's the only thing I dislike. Otherwise its a superb figure and I like how chunky and heavy it is.
I owned the original when i was younger. that being said in comparison. the 2 share zero torso rotation. the original had a superior base mode while in terms of super mode rotations. The original didn't really have legs, it couldn't rotate at the center it was practically boring. for the standard mode. the legs were locked in by his bottom panels so he couldn't bend his legs side to side. also the guns would pop off easily. *the ones on his wrists* the original did have this little gimmick where you could move his mouth though! also finally the original had lights I made a small little video on my page comparing Him and FansHobby Commander. it also has Tyrant and armada megatron :3 Ignore my rather British accent lmao
How do you get the two large blue box shaped pieces of the trailer out? I'm terrified I'm gonna snap something All videos start with them already out, but they're closed when you first unbox it
This is the one figure that can rival the best figures in the titan and haslab class and I'm not just saying that because the original was my first transformers figure not at all .
While the original is a great toy, massive and chunky and show accurate... This new one makes the og look like a clunky mess. The original has a sporadic case of GPS, so unless you wanna gamble you go to the later 2003 repaint if you want to experience the mold without risk of shattering elbows.
Yeah really not much to the base mode there's almost absolutely nothing to it. I don't know why they bothered giving it a base mode since there's nothing no armaments or anything to do with it. To me that's the weakest point of the whole product. At least the original one headlights sounds pop-up weapons. You could attach and store minicons on it or in it.
Can turn the base mode around, have the truck support stands facing forward as cannons and the missile pod facing forward. Then turn the turret around. It helps a lot
1:07 wait a second. So you’re in Texas, your sales tax at the state level is 6.25% and at the city level it’s 2%?? City level taxing? I had no idea that was a thing, I guess that explains why each time I visited the US no one has a straight answer on how much sales tax was. I last was in California and traveled all around Los Angeles and through various cities in Orange County and they all had different sales taxes and it was weird to me being that I’m in Canada and each province here has a singular sales tax varying from 5-15% basically with Ontario having 13, the Maritime provinces having 15% and then everyone else has 5%. So I just don’t get how Americans are always complaining about taxes yet it seems like you guys are always paying less.
Man I have not made a video in a while and I really hope I didn't mess anything up in this one 💀😅
Quick question where can I find the alien attack optional girl
Well In His Supermode Comparing Him To The Box The Figure:Box Ratio Makes Sense
This is peak legacy
Nice pun
Yeah, he really had an evolution
Ong
The original toy had no leg articulation in the super mode, so this is a massive upgrade
Not only did it not have articulation it didn't even have legs it had these giant snap together pieces that Kinda looked like legs but even as a kid It totally sucked
I think you might have missed the tab for the base bots chest. It keeps the crotch pieces together a lot better, not perfect but better

The transformation is very loyal to the original.
0:20 aww the little kitty is cute
This is literally a watered down masterpiece figure but in the absolute best way possible.

One hopes we get Armada Jetfire and Tidalwave.

Absolutely love my figure. It has a little issue staying together at the torso but overall almost perfect
Love this figure. Dont know if it's just me getting used to my figure or its some other thing, but the two issues I had with it (the front grill piece not clicking in right and the shoulder pieces popping off) happened less and less.
I have 2 copies. ( obviously for both modes ) my first copy seems to have those bits stiff. But the other more loose.

I own the figure and absolutely love this figure 10/10 in my honest opinion peak legacy
I agree it's pretty much the best figure of the wave
Delicious design
This is a master piece of a commander class

I never owned this toy eithor, but I did own og unicron.
Figure of the year right here!

Imagine if we get a jet fire to combine with him
Rotb Bumblebee and Armada optimus is my dream figure
Glad to know I'm not the only one with the issues you showed here
This figure is so satisfying to have
It really is

Wait, that's your dad!!!!😮 0:09
I love armada primes design
My only issue is that split with the crotch and on mine there is a scratch on the clear plastic but otherwise great figure
I love Armada Optimus Prime
is a beautiful figure like a ps 5 was in a hand it was the feeling that transformers armanda is the best
comparison to beast wars
Looks cool
Do you know about the nova prime figure ?
Get rid of the almost he is perfect in every way
For that price I would definitely complain to Hasbro. Scratched plastic shouldn't be tolerated.
Yeah I think I’m gonna reach out to them
That’s Not Fair This Is So Cool
Great figure
She’s is in loveee with him 0:09

Bruh, its good
To the maker of this video, transforming truck to robot mode is different yet very similar to the original.

2:18 kinda ok to me looks like a battle damage
Here before this explodes like my diarrhea in my toilet after getting the taco bell party pack

Hey mechazee can u do the lego Optimus prime
This is what legacy is about
not sure if i should buy this figure or the studio series optimus
This one by far. Way more playability and display options!
I can’t even find Studio Series 102 Optimus 😭
@@MechaZeeReviews a tragedy since it looks so cool
@@MechaZeeReviews Same 🤣
02:15 9 moment
If only they'd make a legacy Armada Jetfire.
I want legacy cybertron Optimus Prime
Next you should review big daddy
No Sparkplug? 🥺
Can I buy one?
Transformers armada Optimus prime is the best
he is near perfection only a few issues but it dont ruin the figure
I really want it but it’s not cheap
I think the scuff marks add to it.
Can you do rotb mainline voyager optimus primal
I was never able to find him 😭
optimus prime armada
Can you do the voltes 5 legacy plzzz
FINNALY EARLY-
still waiting for a legacy cybertron optimus
The Commander Motormaster box has room for 4 Deluxes. Shits wack.

@@kwbykllr8055 that is very interesting, when I get mine I'll try that and see if that makes my opinion any different.
those hands on the truck annoy me so muchhhh but atleast they cover up by the trailer i guess
i am the 6th
