Transformers Age of Extinction Generations Leader Class Optimus Prime Figure Review

This is the Transformers Age of Extinction Generations Leader Class Optimus Prime Figure by Hasbro. This is the Leader Class Optimus Prime Figure from the movie: Transformer Age of Extinction by Michael Bay. Optimus Prime has 3 modes: robot, vehicle mode and semi-truck mode. In his robot mode, this Optimus Prime Figure has lots of articulation that allows to be post some cool looking action stances, he also have classic red and blue skim with metallic accents. The figure comes with the sword of judgement and vector shield. Optimus Prime vehicle mode is one of the best vehicle mode we have seen yet from their Optimus Prime action figure. The Truck has red flame along the hoods and sides and does have rubbery tires.

The vector shield is on the hitch and the sword can be place underneath the truck. This Transformers Figure allow kids and collectors to recreate seen from the movie. There are 20 steps to transform this figure going from robot to truck that maybe took 3 minutes and track to robot took 2 minutes. The final step in transforming this Optimus Prime Figure into a robot involve his head automatically  popping up by pressing his chest which is really cool.

The Figure comes in robot mode but the direction in the manual indicates that you have to transform it from vehicle to robot mode. It's a little confusing but most transformers fans should be able to transform this Optimus Prime Figure into vehicle mode by following the directions in reverse.


At the back, aside of  sticking the sword straight down, the whole piece have an angle hinge which you can position the sword a little-bit inclined which i thought is really cool.

The Chrome is not over power which is really nice.There's alot really neat ideas going on transforming in vehicle to robot down the legs. I wish they didn't focus only in the lower foot and they made all that mechanisms even in the upper body. 

One of the big issue on this figure is the clicking joints, when you change the position of arms and legs they're always clicking which is kind of annoying. Overall, I do think that it's alot of fun than I expected. This figure is a nice representation of the updated Optimus Prime truck and robot mode and probably the best as of now.
