dislike the entire thing, it's bad when the first movie toys are 10 times better, and the rotf toys were 5 times better than this....

This sounds crazy, but this new picture of Optimus makes me really want to get him.

I know people wanna jump on Hasbro right away, but seeing how these are unofficial pictures from some "guy", it's more then likely NOT a Voyager.
Even the TF movie one Voyager prime had more details.
It's obviously not a Voyager.
In two More weeks everyone can start hating, or loving, when we get official Hasbro pics, and not stolen Pre-pro shots from the factory.

Oh man, you put a visual like that in my head and that just jumps the suckage on these figures up by a factor of at least 1000.
The more I see of this line the more I actually contemplate going back and picking up the Fugly Twins from the last toy line. So far that HA dune-buggy is the only one with the slightest chance of finding a home on one of my shelves and that will require up close scrutiny before final decision.

I'm more disappointed by the lack of the more, shall we say, imaginative robot modes. All the new/redesigned characters --Megatron included-- seem to stick pretty close to human body proportions (apart from the Dread's pincers). No pogo-bots, Gizmoducks, or Quintessons anywhere
Ah well, this is only, like, the first wave or so...

There are pics of Prime in-package. Voyager package:

It is a voyager sadly, I've seen pics in box and it's the same size as Megatron. Now are you going to send me that MP Prime by UPS or the USPS?

Actually, if you look very, very closely, he's holding the BFG in his hand, but you are right, part of the mold definitely looks like animated Meg's. Oddly enough, this mold looks good to me.....

I don't know man but these look a little more than FAB's. Are you sure you wanna make that bet?

I like them very much. So I'm terrible?
Well it's not a surprise since I've been told I'm not a true fan.

This is Optimus Prime is not an FAB. This is in fact the legitimate new voyager class figure. If they had shown the sides of the package in the picture it would have proved that.

I agree that this toy is a Voyager, but weren't we told that the Voyager Optimus would come with a trailer?
Dread and Wrecker #88 look cool, pass on the other two. A little more paint and Wrecker #88 would look great, especially since he doesn't have an over-the-top BFG like everyone else. I can understand why people like the HA Dune Buggy, but he's way too generic for me. Prime looks a little better, but I'd only buy that figure if it came with the trailer.

Well, that's a bit murky at this point.
Here we have a packaged sample of Voyager Class DOTM Optimus Prime.
The TakaraTomy sheet listed Voyager Prime with trailer as being Voyager+, which would imply a higher price point and or Class.
So, either the list is incorrect and the Prime you see is what we're getting, or we're getting two different Voyagers. This one currently shown, and one with a trailer, yet to be seen.
Or it could be that this is the US version, and the one with the trailer is the Japanese version. They're sticklers for accuracy, and they're willing to take gambles on the toys, whereas Hasbro is not. Such as Masterpiece Rodimus coming here without his trailer.
I guess we'll find out soon enough.
