New Images of Voyager-Class ROTF Optimus Prime Figure

"Cyberglyphics?" Looks like Chinese.

I thought Hasbro said they weren't going to do any repaints of old toys?

its nic share but i expected some bot pictures not all of them of the truck mode is me or does the back of truck where the trailer connects to look little smalle than first prime movie figurwe?

Now I can't speak or read a word of chinese but i'm guessing, and this is just a guess mind you, that those read 'Sample' and 'Not for Sale' or words to that effect.

The more I see of the RotF toys the less I care. I've never been a fan of the movie look anyway so I figure my game plan this time around will be the same as the last, give everything a wide bearth at retail, maybe grab some bits once they go on clearance and maybe pick up the odd loose figure down the line for cheaps and pass on any exclusives that aren't repaints from proper TF lines. Might get the preview Soundwave just because it's Soundwave and a deluxe isn't about to break the bank but other than that count me out.

The Robovision version was the best.

Still this is a nice figure, Unfortunately the new leader class Prime outshines it in every way.

So is there any kind of remold for this one?

He seems to have suffered no modifications at all.
He even has the Vanishing Driver gimmick.

Looks like this one is just a straight repaint.

I'll likely pass, unless its deeply discounted. like the 9.99 First Strike Prime I picked up from the last movie line.

Otherwise, I'd rather save up and pick up the new Leader Class Prime.

Not buying, already have 2 like this from 1st movie

Lol.

I like it when they repaint a figure a lot. It gives the collector options of which to get. If you buy an older version and you like a newer version, chances are you can sell your figure and make back the cost of the new.

If you are like me and don't buy repaints, they are a great way to save money on a line.

That's a good observation...you could very well be right...

So, um, now he has tattoos or something?

The new markings are Chinese characters.

On the hood, the larger two means "Shanghai" (the city) and the smaller two means "General Army". So I am guessing the two pairs of characters actually go together and means "General Army, Shanghai Division".

In the back, the two means General (as in military rank).

I have five - original, robo-vision, first strike, battle damaged and screen battle.

The Chinese lettering makes sense - there's a scene in the trailer where Sidewipe & the bikes burst through the wall of a Chinese house.

This toy sucked the first 3 times they released it.

IT'S A TRAP!1!

Nope. I happened to have my G1 colored version sitting right here as I was reading this thread, and it's exactly the same back there, other than colors/deco of course.

You can actually read Chinese? I'm impressed!
