ROBO-VISION STORY

Blazing down to Earth's surface from outer space comes OPTIMUS PRIME. His protoform mode is ideal for covering the vast distances between stars, and armored to survive the catastrophic descent through a planetary atmosphere. When he arrives, however, his first task is to find an appropriate disguise in which to conduct his search for the AllSpark. As his scanning beam sweeps over nearby objects, he sees the world in the deep red that tells him his targeting and scanning systems are active. Then, his gaze settles upon the coolest thing he has ever seen. Yes, this will be his disguise on Earth.

What does "super metal finish" mean? Shiny paint?

if the only thing different with this toy is shiny paint, i'm getting this instead of the voyager class Prime.

Why isn't it working for me?

And some of the pics send me to an error page.

Edit: All the pics send me to an error page

Fixed.

The link to the Gallery works, and from there the image links also work well.

The thumbnails here also give me an error page.

Anyway:

Except for the packaging it looks pretty much the same as the final version we saw a little while back. The lighter blue, the silver limbs, and the smaller chest/windshield.

I guess the red Vision gimmick is going to add what $5 to the price tag??? so instead of being $19.99 for a normal voyager its going to be $24.99 for the extra scanning content.

Don't know if it will be worth it though. But i'm still getting this mould one version or other.

Whatever, I love the packaging and look forward to this boxed figure joining my collection of other boxed Primes(as well as all the other bots).

I think he'll look good right next to the 20th Ann Prime

I just got a crazy idea.
Could it be that the Super Metal Finish, is alluding to it being a sort of large Titanium figure? In other words could it actually be diecast in some places?? It be so awesome if it where. But being realistic, i doubt Hasbro would go to those lengths.

Jeez, busy morning, right? Anyway, this is pretty cool. Great packaging anyway. But for some reason when I heard 'robo-vision,' I was expecting a Transformers toy that you could look through the eyes of or something and see stuff like a kalaidoscope or something.

this version is a must have for me. love the homage to the red decoder things from g1

I only buy exclusives these days. Looks like one worth having.

lols
I like this version of Movie Prime the most by far!

Man if only there were a Target at my country


I really am tempted to get this one.

I like the look of it. I think it will look good next to my 20th anniiversary Optimus Prime, too.

anyone know when these figures get released? i callled toysrus they said dont get them in until june 16 and another answer i got from toysrus is bonecrusher is soldout and they dont know what they get in until they open the boxes them shelves.

and target response was they dont have optimus prime to sell.

Movie figures except for the Protofrom Optimus and Starscream, are scheduled for release in June, one month before the movie.

However some have already started to leak out into store shelves, like Bonecrusher.

but the main stream release should still be in June.

oh thanks from these leaked images wasnt so sure if some were allready out like optimus target version and some others excluding protoforms and bonecrusher thanks again that helped me out alot.

shiny!

seems this so called "robo-vision" is nothing more than some little decoder you will probably find in your count chokula and frankenberries sometime soon.

You say that as if Count Chocula and Frankenberries are easy to find!

And yeah, the gimmick does seem pretty cheap. If it's going to sell for more than the normal version I'm guessing a big part the cost is probably going to be due to the additional packaging, assuming the normal version is packaged in vehicle mode like the others.

I foresee lots of flaking paint with this figure

Count Chocula and Frankenberries still exist?!

So what's the secret code we have to put in at Target.com?

We don't know yet. It's hidden under the picture of the prime head on the package, and I don't have a decoder. I tried squinting, but no luck.

Let's not spoiler the code before Prime's released.

Maybe I'll get both, crack open the normal version, and keep the Target-exclusive in package.
