You know, this line almost contraindicates a leader class figure. The large figures are usually best for better details, but these things just don't have a lot of detailing...why do leader class figures? Meh...

.... How could I pass on the biggest Prime ever!?

Plus he does a bunch of stuff. It remains to be seen how impressive that'll be. The automatic transformation might be cool, but could be lame. But talking and electronic noises is the sort of gimmick that's almost always lame.

Supreme is bigger than Ultimate Bumblebee by an inch and a half or 2, and lacks all of the niceties BB has. Past Supreme sized versions of characters have been little more just larger versions of the characters without any addons to warrant the size.

Supreme Starscream had lights and sounds.
Supreme Cheetor was just big. Marketed as the size of a common house cat.

The only Supreme figures thus far that really warrant that size, are Unicron and Primus.

Optimus' Alt mode = LOL

The roll out command prime is a self'transforming optimus figure.
this is pretty revolutionary, isn't it.
The first transformer that actually transforms by itseld (jumpstarters don't count, those don't transform. just fold in half hhe).
And he looks sweet ass.

its to stop the fan base from whining about that other thing...........scale.
its almost a cliche, TF fans are amongst the biggest whiners in toyforum land.

Leader. There is also a Voyager, but the pics you see in here are of the Leader version. Looks like trunks has a typo with mention of a previously seen deluxe version. Unless I just don't know about a deluxe bulkhead yet. Even if so, there would still be failure to mention the Voyager class. :grin:

Prime is bad ass, don't care what anyone says. Once one sees how friggin big he is, things will look more proportionate.

Yuck. I want to like Animated, but I just don't.

Why didn't supreme Prime come with a trailer?

prime wouldnt look so fat if the front bumpper wasnt around his hips the bumper on his hips makes his butt look big and fat its nice i need to see more images of prime to make my decision what he can and cant do i like the prime but i wont be picking him up leader class for me.

bulkhead i like its even better than his animated self version this one has guns and missles looks like hasbro wants to go into 2 directions with some of the figures voyger class for teh childern and leader class for the adults more detail and weapons possibly.?

I can't express a lot of excitment over these guys (though I'm a little biased against bigger toys anyways... never enough cash)

I think Prime suffers from bad photo angle, considering how much of a slope his cab has the photo's angle may just be giving him the extra pounds. Fully auto tf though? doesn't that take the fun away?

Bulkhead... I like the fact he looks different from his smaller scale but his voyager size seems so perfect (almost exact likeness of the show) I'm really wondering about the prowl next to him. Is that just a bad photo composition causing the scale to be wrong or is there a potential voyager/leader prowl down the road?

Oh I can't wait for toy fair... so many toys...

Bulkhead me like, big prime not so much I think i'll get the voyager class instead.

Well, he has no trailer in the show. Maybe that's why.
Now start complaining about BW prime not having a trailer too...

Bulkhead looks awesome!!

Where is the trailer they kept talking about that would come with optimus prime.

WOW Leader class Bulkhead looks Awsome so does Supreme class Optimus i heard from another site that Leader Bulkhead might be in wave one if so he will be the firs Animated toy I'll get.

by **Mirage22** » Mon Feb 18, 2008 8:18 pm

Leader-Class Bulkhead lokks...AMAZING! But I don't know about that Optimus. He looks kinda fat, but who knows, that's just a photo.

I'm going to be budgeting myself, so no Supreme Prime for me.

Jumping on the bandwagon again, but leader bulkhead looks great. Though I think from a toy display standpoint he might look a bit to detailed/realistic compared to the rest of the bots. Not sure if I'll get him.

I am hoping voyager bulkhead still has some height on voyager prime, then scaling might not be to off. Bulkhead is huge in alt mode but I don't remember how big he really is in bot mode.. gotta check youtube i guess.

ANd yeah prime looks sorta silly, but I think this one is for the kids.

Me too, sort of.
I tend to jump into new toylines without thinking too much, and so far I'm 50%-50% on Animated. But I got burned last summer with that stupid-assed Ultimate Bumblebee because I was impulsive and just excited for a new TF line. No Supreme Prime unless he kicks ass. Like really kicks ass, not just looks good in the package.

I gotta say, after seeing Supreme Prime's 'automatic transformation' I'm much less inclined towards it.

Check out this stupid ****:

Maybe I'll start calling him Supreme Spinmaster Prime or something. Judging by the videos, the spring-loaded Activator Bumblebee has a more impressive automatic transformation gimmick.
