Transformers Movie Voyager Optimus Prime
Manufacturer: Hasbro
OPTIMUS PRIME is defined by his optimistic outlook and the care he feels for his comrades and those they protect. Though he may seem grim when contemplating the battle ahead, he looks always ahead to victory, refusing to contemplate the slightest chance of defeat. This attitude informs all that he does, and infects the other AUTOBOTS as well, leading them all to approach each fight with absolute confidence in their ability to win. It is, in turn, this that proves to be their advantage in each and every engagement against the DECEPTICONS, for in the face of superior numbers and fearsome weaponry, the AUTOBOTS never back down, never bend, and never break.

More Chinese Junk!
I got this for my son based ont he review here that said that this toy was pretty durable. THIS TOY IS NOT DURABLE. We opened the package and two plastic pieces immediately fell off. Then as my son was playing with it about 5 more pieces of plastic fell off. There are so many panels that are spring loaded that are held on by weak plastic hinges that will just fall off.
I should have known that this was junk when I saw this toy in the store with a bunch of clear rubber bands holding it together. I find it crazy that they have to use rubber bands to help this thing keep it's shape. Could you imagine buying a used car with a rubber band holding the door closed?
When are we going to stop buying this plastic junk from China and force them to make higher quality stuff?
Optimusly Primed to Recommend this Transformer!!!
Optimus Prime was drop shipped to Guam and from what I understand there are many knock offs imported there from many different parts of Asia that are not of the superior quality of this product. The kids are able to transform him without having him fall apart as the others have. This product may very well be made in China; however quality control is of optimal prime importance.
Optimus owns
I am very impressed with this figure even though i thought i was going to hate it. It is the most durable Transformer figure i own. It looks great in robot mode and has excellent articulation. He uses the smoke stacks from vehicle mode as guns. Prime transforms into a blue and red Peter Built truck. The vehicle mode is also quite nice. Both the robot and vehicle mode are very detailed. One gripe. This Movie Voyager prime is not tall enough by my standards compared to the other Transformers. So I will be purchasing the leader class optimus prime. The reason this will not hurt the rating is because this is a movie voyager and can only be but so big.
My Grandson Loves This
While this toy is a joy to my grandson, it is a little fragile and pieces break off easily. However, they are re-attachable, but frustrating sometimes to the child trying to transform the truck into the autobot.
Not too bad.
Transformers are fun again, for this 36 year old, after seeing their quicksilver transforming sequences in the unexpectedly satisfying 'Transformers' film last year (2007). Morphing, already blase, has been immediately rendered antique in comparison with the realistically-engineered transformation patterns by which these hardwired puzzles with souls keep undercover. The problem, as far as children's toys are concerned, is that even these "dumbed-down" Transformers can be near-impossibly complex and frustrating to rubik back and forth between vehicle and Bot at the constantly changing whims of one's children. Transformers Movie Voyager Optimus Prime isn't as hard as Transformers Movie Deluxe Class Bumblebee 2008 Camaro--the only two I've had the pleasure of playing with of late, but even with the poor instructions that inevitably get lost, the Prime ain't an easy rig to rig up for children, or adults, unless, perhaps, one has a degree in mechanical engineering. Another reason I shouldn't have majored in English Literature.
