Yep, he is like JangBricks of the Transformers. 🙂 Jang has also been going for some 14 straight years with his main YT channel. And as the name of his channel suggests, he's been primarily focused on Lego.
Hasbro is trying to gaslight us into thinking that the yellowing is intentional by having these be all yellowed out before they even hit the store shelves.
@@CuteCanadianGirl2007 I'm not saying he's a bad actor or voice actor! If anything he's actually kind of awesome. It's just ironic that the voice actor from the Bumblebee Movie makes bee sound years younger than he does in TF One. And the entire point of TF One is for bumblebee to be young!
Bro I was so ready for prime to say somthing stupid like “It’s time to ONE” or somthing after hearing him say Rise,Legacy,etc at the end of these skits 🤣🤣🤣
I saw this vid and ran over. Instant grab for me!!! Love the design & detachable matrix. The color of the forearms are odd, imo. Wish it was regular gray...but still excited to add him to the Prime collection. New movie hype! ❤💙🔥🤖🚚
In my experience, bending the knees slightly in Alt mode usually allows for the hands to line up with the posts. Though they are quite snug once they're in. Still a great figure. I think they may have used a yellowed grey plastic from the outset. Like it was done that way during the molding process. Though that's just my own take on why the grey plastic has that yellow hue to it.
Dang the alt mode looks really rough, I feel like they could’ve come up with a better solution to make the truck hold together. The robot mode looks great aside from the yellow plastic.
It feels.rrdundant to make this Deluxe and a Warrior Class. Unless we get a repaint of one in zany colors like they did for 07, RotF, & DotM. I love those for some reason.
Would like to see if Emgo would do skit with this version of Optimus Prime sitting next with Megatron instead of Shockwave like the usual skits with Megatron and Shockwave
I feel like this is a case of waiting for the Third Party developers working on a better Transformers One version of Optimus Prime. Or even have an upgrade kit for it to work on some issues with the figure
I feel like emgo is the only TH-camr to make a negative sound not so bad, like the weird waist doesn’t sound too bad. But if someone like primevsprime did he would make it sound like the worst thing ever
Exactly. Like, I don't like Dr. Lockdown at all. He tends to be WAAAAAY too harsh on figures that aren't deserving of it and hyperfixates on things that don't really matter. And no matter what that man says, I will DIE on the hill that Legacy Arcee is a good figure in her own right and is NOT that bad. One of the reasons I love Emgo is because, unlike Dr. Lockdown, he's chill even when gives a negative point. He doesn't act like a backpack is the worst thing ever lol.
They finally fixed the axe with this guy! All of the recent prime axes are sideways, and they finally turned the axe head so it's facing forward when he holds it.
Hasbro: guys, we want you to adapt a new Prime for the upcoming movie. Designers: sounds exciting! H: we want you to base the design largely around earthrise engineering D: we have some great ideas! H: and of course make provisions for a matrix and chamber as well as the fan favorite energon axe. D: awesome!! H: oh, squeeze it all into a deluxe class D: ...um...wat
Love the figure. I was searching for a cybertronian mode Optimus with stylezed aesthetic of roughly 6" height for my collection (yeah, I have a rather specific set of conditions), and this one seems to be it! Even like the yellowish plastic, this is a new colour and looking past yellowING plastic association it is quite nice. The only thing that bothers me are the visible hands in robot mode. The cab transforms so beautifully and then the forearms and hands are just... there. I wonder if they coul have them fold into the cab seeing how there is some space undeneath
This guy looks so, so cool! I really love his design! I really want him! This is one cool Optimus Prime design! Love both modes! I hope we can get a SS Orion Pax (properly)! And, I'd love a SS Elita, Bee, Sentinel Prime, Steve, and Arachnid! Can't wait for the movie! Very excited!
I was able to see the movie early and O absolutely loved it. So did the rest of the theater. Probably my favorite TF movie if all time. I just picked this up today simply because the movie is THAT good and I wanted to represent it on my shelf ASAP. Gonna repaint his yellow parts though. They did not appear that color in the movie.. at least to me? Maybe I’m alone there but Pax to Prime I noticed no yellow.
Looks nice. After the new G1 Deluxe Optimus got revealed this guy now is second priority to me, but he still makes for a worthy purchase purely for how really, really well the robot mode works. Some certain youtube channels will complain about "Hot Rod Shoulders", which will annoy everyone with three braincells or more to no end. Alt mode is dissapointing, but tbh i dont think its THAT bad. I've seen worse tolerances on much, much more expensive products.
Oh it's definitely not supposed to be that colour. That's more yellowing out of the box. I've seen another one that isn't so yellow. I guess that Hasbro are still having production problems.
This is a nice design, and a pretty nice figure. However, I can't help but wonder how many not-reboots of the design of movie Optimus we're going to get.
Am I the only one who hopes the transformation is screen accurate? I think it would be funny to see his head spin around and pop down like that to start the transformation
My goodness! This Optimus Prime figure is absolutely amazing!! Oh, and It also has a rotational joint on the shoulder smokestacky part just like from the movie trailer, too!
I won't forget that when they unveiled this on a livestream they had a painted silver version that looked so much better even Mark Maher (Hasbro designer) made a confused comment about it... The whole "screen accurate" argument doesn't make any sense, especially considering his head is silver!
The "yellowed" grey plastic makes it look 'retro'. 🙂 Like as if the toy was already 20+ years old. Maybe some people will consider it a positive and relish it. 🙂
I am late to this lol but I just found this Optimus Prime at Walmart and when transforming him it was a little difficult to clip his hands in the port but it is possible and it's really secure, trying to unpeg his hands to transform back into robot mode I accidentally ripped his arms off the joint 😂 so I'll just lightly plug his hands in
My copy of the figure doesn't have the weird arm yellow, everything is paint and plastic match correctly so I'm assuming this was just QC for ealy batches. Note: everything is in that brownish grey
I'm going to be using this figure as rebuilt Orion Pax from the G1 episode "War Dawn". I wonder how it would look with the Amazon Data Clerk Orion Pax head?
Good review as always but as far as cybertronian primes are concerned I think I'll stick with my Cybertron siege Optimus Prime truck hat and all as the alternate mode holds the other reasonably well and I feel like it does enough for laughs Here's hoping Transformers 1 is actually good and if the movie is I will buy one of these as a souvenir so to speak otherwise I just don't feel like there's enough to justify picking this guy up Also another little problem I have with this figure is that the extra alternate mode cannons seem unnecessary where I would have happily have traded those for a handheld iron blaster
I’m happy for the movie. But I’m not really to excited for the voice acter I hope it just before he becomes a prime then is Peter Colleen as the proper voice for optimus prime
@@shawnp4155all the greys with no wash looks so cheap, why does this always happen to prime, then again i feel like every transformer should have a wash

@@HymniFajriAji what? Do you think this is a 3rd party transformer?
@@HymniFajriAji ???
Well at least we don't have to worry about the Grey yellowing, because it already is.
Thor is gonna be Optimus Prime. Black Widow is gonna be Elita 1. Toad is gonna be Bee and Randall Boggs is gonna be Starscream. I’m excited
Freaky bob at the phone… you should answer pal
I personally think that Keegan Micheal-Key shouldn't be in the role for young Bumblebee.
And Bernie Hayes is gonna be Megatron 😅😅

i know...soo sick of seein OP every other review

A dedicated fan.

I’m so hope to see a new Studio Series Transformers One version of Bumblebee, Megatron and Elita-one.
My one of this figure hold together just fine he’s my favourite Optimus Prime form studio series
It's pizza bagel time with Prime

I watch this not just for the transformation guide but for all of the content! Keep them coming!!!
movie hasn't been out yet but glad that figure were out to early
Lucky, we be seeing these toy soon, loving it
I can see a future figure with the gimmick of going from Orion Pax to Optimus prime. Either a quick change or snap on parts
out of every other Optimus Prime figures the arms and hands are sometimes well hidden this figure has its arms stand out on the side right there
I see them removing the diaper and the obviously 2 separate piece face plate to make Orion Pax out of this mold.
Dang the alt mode looks really rough, I feel like they could’ve come up with a better solution to make the truck hold together. The robot mode looks great aside from the yellow plastic.

The yellow plastic reminds me of that 3rd world country meme: "hey! You tracked dirt into the house! Our floor is already dirt!"
Would like to see if Emgo would do skit with this version of Optimus Prime sitting next with Megatron instead of Shockwave like the usual skits with Megatron and Shockwave
I've had this guy for a little over a month (he's my first Transformer oh wow!) and I didn't know until now that his feet angle out lke that
This is a TH-camr from my childhood is still holding up to this day
man, i remember when i watched him when i was 7 (i'm 15 now) he kinda influenced me to buy my first Transformers toy that i still have to this day
I plan on removing the "diaper" from mine.
I also want to see about modding the arms to fold up behind the cab like on one of the mainline toys.
I feel like this is a case of waiting for the Third Party developers working on a better Transformers One version of Optimus Prime.
Or even have an upgrade kit for it to work on some issues with the figure
Prime really should've been at least a voyager class, considering the Studio Series reference is his origin movie.
Are you going to do more earth spark figures? There’s been a lot of figures released that you should check out
I feel like emgo is the only TH-camr to make a negative sound not so bad, like the weird waist doesn’t sound too bad. But if someone like primevsprime did he would make it sound like the worst thing ever

Love your videos
That optimus prime figure from Transformers one movie is more than meets the eye
awesome job about Studio Series 112 Deluxe Class OPTIMUS PRIME Action Figure from Transformers One 2024
I was able to see the movie early and O absolutely loved it. So did the rest of the theater. Probably my favorite TF movie if all time. I just picked this up today simply because the movie is THAT good and I wanted to represent it on my shelf ASAP.
Gonna repaint his yellow parts though. They did not appear that color in the movie.. at least to me? Maybe I’m alone there but Pax to Prime I noticed no yellow.
Yeah you're right, the Studio Series' color is off. Not sure what happened there.
The rise of Optimus Prime had finally arrived.
THE LEGEND HAS NEVER FAILED ME!!!!
transformer toys are greatest toys ever made
Looks nice. After the new G1 Deluxe Optimus got revealed this guy now is second priority to me, but he still makes for a worthy purchase purely for how really, really well the robot mode works.
Some certain youtube channels will complain about "Hot Rod Shoulders", which will annoy everyone with three braincells or more to no end.
Alt mode is dissapointing, but tbh i dont think its THAT bad. I've seen worse tolerances on much, much more expensive products.
The weird shade of grey to me seems like a faded gold which makes me think of him as being more regal despite what his origin is in the movie
The hands go into the leg handles, you just have to bend his knees just slightly.
Well now I'm looking forward to a Bumblebee review whenever he comes out to see where this skit goes Lol
Oh it's definitely not supposed to be that colour. That's more yellowing out of the box. I've seen another one that isn't so yellow. I guess that Hasbro are still having production problems.
Hasbro insist on using the cheapest plastic imaginable
I got mine today and I’m having the same problems with the legs and tabs, I’m gonna have to do some work I guess😅
This is a nice design, and a pretty nice figure. However, I can't help but wonder how many not-reboots of the design of movie Optimus we're going to get.
The diaper is a precaution against extra spicy pizza bagels.
True
I’ll definitely wait to see if we get a non-yellowed one.
Am I the only one who hopes the transformation is screen accurate? I think it would be funny to see his head spin around and pop down like that to start the transformation
" But Prime" Will never get old.
I do like that matrix stance gimmick.
"But Prime!" is Ironhide pouting like a spoiled brat ha ha.
Thank god I ordered mine last night from cmdstore. He’s sold out now
My goodness! This Optimus Prime figure is absolutely amazing!!

While I may not be the biggest fan of this design, this is a good figure... Hands just hanging there aint great but if it's accurate hey good for them
i feel like this figure should be the mainline version, and the studio series could be bumped to a voyager so it could have a better alt mode
My copy of the figure doesn't have the weird arm yellow, everything is paint and plastic match correctly so I'm assuming this was just QC for ealy batches.
Note: everything is in that brownish grey
It's prime time! I was so excited I yelled at the notification!
I can't wait for the movie and the review
Forget Allspark Blue! Now we have Pre-yellowed Gray! Thanks Hasbro! Still looking forward to the film though.
The 'bot design is badass, but that alt. mode is MEH... but I do agree, that "yellowed" material is unsettling.
During the transformation lil prime did reverse total squirrel
You forgot take out the backdrop the display
I womder if Hemsworth will slightly change his voice to sound like Peter Cullen when he bcomes Prime.
I'm going to be using this figure as rebuilt Orion Pax from the G1 episode "War Dawn".
I wonder how it would look with the Amazon Data Clerk Orion Pax head?
Not the typical Optimus prime transformation i see
I hope that Hasbro makes a Studio Series Megatron to go with this Optimus.
I feel like it's too early for this figure to be part of the studio series line considering the movie hasn't even came out in theaters yet
Good review as always but as far as cybertronian primes are concerned I think I'll stick with my Cybertron siege Optimus Prime truck hat and all as the alternate mode holds the other reasonably well and I feel like it does enough for laughs

Also another little problem I have with this figure is that the extra alternate mode cannons seem unnecessary where I would have happily have traded those for a handheld iron blaster
Hopefully a third party will come up with some upgrades like a unmasked head.
and making some flaps that cover the arms and a proper colored axe
If I get this I'm definitely getting the Takara version. 100x better.
Orion Pax: So, How long do you think we'll be here?
Hasbro pre-yellowing our toys for us
Nice scott steiner reference 😂 😎
I’m happy for the movie. But I’m not really to excited for the voice acter I hope it just before he becomes a prime then is Peter Colleen as the proper voice for optimus prime
He is gonna be the orion pax in my collection
TF😲, you got one already? Maaaan…
The first time he said ,"but prime" 😂😂😂
It looks like they pre yellowed it so when it yellows later it will be harder to notice
the plastic looks really like the yellowing in my earthrise prime. 😂😂😂
Why are his shoulder bits out in the open? Couldn't they add a cover for the shoulder joints?
This figure looks fantastic and I can’t wait to get it
the movie ain't even out yet and he's already yellowing
That plastic overall does come off as Dollar Store type quality
