Transformers DOTM Deluxe Optimus Prime Repaint Also a Wal-Mart Exclusive

There's a picture of him in box at SDCC. That's where I found out he was a WM exclusive, quite a while ago actually. It's pretty cool that he's confirmed to come here. I especially like the gun (as most who want this guy probably do as well, though I quite like the colours too).

Hate the Paintjob on Prime. I got the first version of the Deluxe and Like him for his truck mode size next to my Voyager Megs, that and the "Energon" axe without having to pay for the lame-o twins. Only reason I'd get this is to have another of the Voyager Prime weapon, which is the only thing that got an Improved paintjob.

That's kinda cool for a girl, or a G2 fanatic. I mean it's got pink and a peach color.

That vehicle mode is hideous.

yuck

Wow. Like much of the Mechtech weaponry, it looks like a complete afterthought when mounted up there on its lil' post. Awkward.

The crazy gold scheme doesn't bother me as much as the fact than we get SOOOOO many VERY similar repaints of Prime and Bee.

I'd rather see new characters like an Ultra Magnus, Nemesis Prime/Scourge, Diaclone Prime, Shatter Glass... Even if they call them things crazy-wild random things to make the kids think they're still buying "Optimus Prime".... like this....

White Icy Snow-Blast Optimus Prime
Black Negaverse Stealth Mission Optimus Prime
Navy Special Ops Code Blue Optimus Prime
Twilight Undercover Grape Crush Optimus Prime

Please don't use the word "Twilight" to describe Optimus Prime. Ever.

Doesn't look that good either...

Looks alright; gold is a little weird but I could get used to it. I like the gun though.

I tried to like this mold, but I just cant. Saw the original for the 1st time last week, wanted to buy it cause I havent gotten a tformer for a month or so, but I couldnt.

They can pair him with "Bella"bee!

I'm with a few other posters here, I'll pay $10 for the repainted MechTech. I'm just not that thrilled on the gold paint for Prime. If Hasbro would've used that money to paint the framework for the figure silver (or figured out another way to save us from that prototype looking grey a lot of figures have these days), it would be a no-brainer.
