It looks pretty big, but I don't have a Michael Bay or Rosie Huntington-Whiteley to compare it to. And what is the Hulk doing here?

A quick google search shows Bay at 6ft 1in if that helps. I have no idea why Hulk is here.

The trailer must have more Prime parts inside it to make it bigger. I wasnt expecting that. Not bad.

Unless its a perspective thing, because the alt mode cab looks way smaller than the Robot mode. THey are the same figure right?

Optimus keeps looking better each new picture we get. Same with Rosie :)
Not sure who looks better though...(Rosie!)

Still not going to buy a DOTM Prime. But it's nice to see Bay and Rosie together at the toy fair.

man that combo mode is garbage. the alt mode awesome the prime alone awesome the combined mode crap, great job destroying a potentially great figure.

i still think that they should make Prime's head bigger. it looks so puny.

Wow. That figure is a lot bigger than I thought it was going to be. Still reckon it looks like crap.

Im not quite sure those 2 toys are the same class. I think Rosie is holding a voyager and Michael looks to be holding a leader? Maybe the trailer can be pulled by a voyager but combines with a leader? :???: The combined one actually looks quite good and is growing on me. Cant wait to see how it works in the movie! We need a Transformers 4!!! Things cant end yet!!!

"What the H3LL are we doing at toy fair?"

"What the H3LL are these things?"
Image


"Oh, optimus, yeah I remember him the uhhh flames dude..."

WHAT ROSIE IS THINKING:

"I feel really uncomfortable about this, it could hurt my image....:
Image



"Hey wasn't this in the movie?"
Image



"flame-tron!!!! yeah I know him!!!! God my face feels so puffy..."

Man, she looks like a life-sized Barbie-doll.
Bay looks older on these pictures...

... but I like his suit.

'Bout the toy: do these orange parts on the top become his battle-blades or are they just a way to use up all of the plastic of the trailer?

I swear those leg braces on optimus look like they could make a paraplegic walk again !!! Why couldnt the trailer just transform into a damn base ???

I love the truck n trailer mode, but if I pick it up, it may never come out of that mode.

I saw someone calling this figure "Fairy Wings Prime" on the reveal thread and I just wanted to point out that my wife and I have been calling this figure that ever since. I think it's a great name.

Now that you mention it, it does look like a crossover Prime from some pre-teen anime from japan.

Figure looks like a big Voyager or a small Leader class depends how you look at it. The one Rosie is holding looks more like a Voyager class so i'll go with that.

Rosie herself....i still think Megan Fox looks way better.
Re: Michael Bay & Rosie Huntington-Whiteley at Toy Fair with Ultimate Optimus Prime (1182959)
Posted by Pontimax 01 on February 16th, 2011 @ 11:52am CST
I want a big frickin Prime, and I guess this may have to satisfy that. I'll put him next to JetOptimus. Neither will go near my Buster Prime, just in case ugly is contagious.

And if these pictures are any indication of Rosie's personality in the movie, we. are. screwed. What a friggin blank looking slate. I was never on board the whole "hate Megan" train ride, but it looks like I'll be one of the first on the "Ugh Rosie" ride.


Edit - I wonder if you can fold all the trailer bits straight down to give Prime a metal cape of sorts... :-?

Posted by BATTOUSAIXD on February 16th, 2011 @ 12:49pm CST
Ultimate Prime looks much better with the wing things down. The alt mode looks like a voyager and the robot looks like a leader, so they may be different figures. Or like someone else mentioned, the trailer has extra prime parts to add. And Michael Bay is looking a bit old :CON:
Re: Michael Bay & Rosie Huntington-Whiteley at Toy Fair with Ultimate Optimus Prime (1182987)
Posted by Swiftknife24 on February 16th, 2011 @ 1:23pm CST
Oh I get it, they took a picture outside of Bay with the figure because the real Prime was outsiiiiiiiiide!

*Ahem* Yeah, sarcasm aside, I think it's quite cool that they showed up at Toy Fair :D Kudos!

Geez, Ultimate Prime is really tall in that mugshot photo of Bay and Huntington. The Ark is a smidge bit smaller than I thought it was as well. This will present some problems for me when I add him to the Prime Vs. Megatron diorama. :lol: :lol:

I gotta give these guys props for actually showing up at Toy Fare. Were any other celebs there pimping their upcoming movies? I hadn't heard.

I tell you what, Rosie is growing on me. She isn't the sultry, seductive, sexy type that Megan Fox was...she almost looks like she's more the downhome, girl-next-door, cutie type. Just a thought. Still I'd love to show her my Power Core Combiner... 8-} :BANG_HEAD:

Agreed! Don't remember Jon Favreau personally endorsing his Iron Man merch for instance! :P (then again he may have done, but unlikely...I know Robert Downey Jr. posed with one of his figures...but anyway, we're straying!)

I never really liked Fox; too old for the role, too fake and plastic-y and just so up herself it's unbelievable (like Emma Watson). But from what we've seen from Rosie so far; I like her apparent personality. Half the time I'm not to sure on her looks (but that's taste) but she certainly seems sweet! :D Quite interested to see her in action!

My question is this: is the trailer for this Optimus compatible for the Revenge of the Fallen Leader Class Optimus? I Don't like how this version of Optimus looks without the trailer in robot mode.

wow, no deaththreats. I think they look cute and that prime is a definite buy, eventhough I have 2 leaders and 1 voyager. I think it's cool they were there, looking forward how Rosie will do, and how they'll do that plotwise.

well, more so when Rosie is holding him. :x
She sure is a cutie.
First-Aid wrote:PLus I think she's British...women with British accents are just sexy.

I can agree with that. Well, not all British women are sexy because of their accent, but I must say I like British (and Australian) women and thier accents better than the American (and I'm American).

It's very interesting to see the difference in the comments between Rosie and Megan...the word "cutie" is being bantered about quite a bit in reference to her where "sexy" was used more with Megan.
