Weak ass alt mode for that Skullitron but a fun head sculpt. Totally bizarre.

That deluxe Megs is also a pretty weak offering. TLK head and AOE body is pretty lazy.

That toy mold is not from AOE.

Is not AoE. Megatron ... well Galvatron... was a truck in AoE. That Deluxe Megatron is 30th thrilling IDW G1 Megatron toy from 2013.

Every chain has it's own exclusive gimmick:

Toys 'R Us: Mission to Cybertron, featuring cyberglyphs
Walmart: Autobots United, featuring Hot Rod
Target: similar to G1 Tech Spec decoders, except the codes are on the toys

Darn, I'm gonna need to get that if I want to get all the MtC toys...if my Toys R Us even bothers to stock it I'm almost certain it's gonna go on clearance. I'm surprised their Fortress Maximi haven't gone on sale yet.

Hint on that box:

By the way, having both the Cybertron original AND the 2010 Primus on display, I dunno if I'll ever pick this one.

It stands for Mission to Cybertron. After this post, I only need one more to make the name of a Transformer I found Vehicon.

WTF No way am I spend 100 bucks on a set with mediocre figures no friggin way mark it down to 30 and we'll talk but at 100 they can jog on. That Optimus on the other hand looks half decent and i'll probably pick him up if shows up here in AUS in my area as I never got that mold as DOTM Prime.

Skullitron looks Fugly and to be frank Steelbane looks a LOT better than him. Megatron on the other hand looks friggin Gorgeous The gold just makes it pop! i'll be picking this up for sure although 40 for a deluxe concerns me and especially since the mold has been used twice before (on figures that I am much more excited to get)I fear mold degredation could be in effect here.

Meh just Meh I've played with both of these molds before and I didn't like them very much due to their complexity and loose joints and the deco for the DOTM deluxe Prime doesn't seem like a very significant Difference (one could say that about the WFC Prime repaint from the Transformers Tribute boxset but that figure has the advantage of I actually want him and he's packaged with an Awesome Orion Pax repaint of Kup!) not excited for this one. :(

What's WFC? I know DOTM is Dark of the Moon, but I don't know of any toyline or movie that could tell me what those letters stand for.

War For Cybertron, also try checking out a place called Tfwiki, they're helpful

WFC stands for War For Cybertron, a game released for the Xbox 360, PS2, and PC in 2010. A sequel called Fall Of Cybertron (FOC for short) was released in 2012.

Both games got some toys, that's where that Optimus Prime came from.

Those are games for systems I don't have because I only have Nintendo DS and 3DS. I suppose players start off playing as Bumblebee in those games. That's the way it was with a game a co-worker gave me.

WFC is on the DS as well, I know because I have the games. In FOC you start off as playing as Bumblebee but in WFC on DS you start off as an Autobot Rookie (in both faction campaigns). I can't remember about the PC version.

I think we should get back on topic now.

I was about to suggest that :)

So, the Tribute series... I have a hunch it's not a true movie line, despite the use of Movie Optimus Prime as art. Then again, if the rest of that series focuses on movie figures... :-?
