Customer Ratings & Reviews

Thus transformer is as advertised. The only comment I have is that it is a little smaller than I expected. Otherwise, it is a good Transformer.

Transforming this is so awesome! Hours of nostalgic fun, and both modes look great!

I'm an adult collector and it's been great to get figures at Best Buy and not deal with crowds however be careful because I was hoping to get Optimus Prime and I ended up with Astrotrain instead. (I needed him as well but still)

While it's not all that terribly different from every other G1 style Optimus It does do a couple clever things with the transformation, and the trailer provides options for storing a whole heck of a lot of accessories. Unfortunately there are some small QC issues that keep me from giving it a higher rating. There was a bit of mold flash in mine that kept the torso from perfectly aligning until I trimmed it, and the legs just don't quite tab together. Not a total dealbreaker, but very much the sort of thing that shouldn't be there. Look, we both know you're going to get this anyway because G1 is pure collector bait and this is the first non masterpiece G1 prime in years to come with a trailer. Just maybe wait till it's on sale or something.

So to be clear, this listing does not guarantee you Optimus Prime or any other specific Leader Class figure from this line. You can get one of either Optimus, Astro Train, or Double Dealer. If you are ok with getting one of those three, then the clearance price is a great deal on these toys. I am fan of all three toys, they are a lot of fun do a great job scratching the nostalgia itch for an old school G1 Transformer fan.

I thought I was getting what was pictured! I see it says styles may vary. Disappointed I didn't get what I thought I was going to get!

This is a great deal for a leader class Optimus Prime. He looks like his G1 self.

I didn’t get prime. But I knew it was 50/50 chance but at least I got double dealer on sale

Small in size for the price, but great detail. Highly recommend.

This is great figure. This is one of the best optimus prime ever made.

Got Astro train instead of Optimus Prime. Great figure thou but please pay attention to the STYLES MAY VARY LISTING.

Other reviews have already stated that ordering this online is basically like a "mystery box" and you don't know which figure you're going to get until you open the shipping box. While Earthrise Optimus Prime is pictured, I got Earthrise Astrotrain, which is fine by me because I wanted to get both figures and didn't already have them. The Astrotrain figure has some pretty awesome call-backs to the G1 80s version with some good modern flare. He is pricey for the scale of the figure as he's really closer in size to the class below in this line. Earthrise Optimus Prime is clearly a better value. You do get some "deluxe" accessories with Astrotrain like a separate caboose that doubles as a weapons locker. Hasbro/Tomy use the more elaborate accessories to make up for the price point, sort of like what they did with the Cliffjumper figure, who's at least $5, but more like $10 too costly. Anyway, only buy online if you're okay with not knowing exactly what you get! I expect that this randomness will deepen once the Earthrise line is expanded with additional waves of figures.

So, I had no idea this wasn't for a fixed figure; you just get whatever random one they have in stock. Had to return.

Styles may vary == not the one you want. We're now at the point where Leader class is the same size as older Voyagers..

I ordered Optimus Prime. I received Astrotrain. I did not see that the item was picked at random. If i had known that would have ordered elsewhere. It was a gift so i was unable to return it. Althought the person who recieved it was happy.. I was not. But you did have fast shipping. Thank you.

Best Mainline Optimus Prime probably since 84's G1 Optimus Prime. Item was i stock and was able to pick it up curbside an hour later on the same day. My son was estatic. Item was sold out everywhere else. Excellent customer service. I'm buying the rest of my kids Transformers forBest Buy

The figure is great. The buying process, not so much. As others have said, be sure to read the description as this is essentially a $50 blind bag. If you're ordering online to pick up in-store, call the store first and see if someone can identify which figure it is. That's what I had to do to find an Optimus Prime in my area.

I didn’t receive the toy I was hoping, the two figures I got were the same. Astrotrain is a fine figure, but when Best Buy advertise these toys with a picture of Optimus Prime, I expect to receive Optimus Prime. I’m spending my money elsewhere, and so should you!

Was hoping for prime but astrotrain is pretty good

Absolutely great Optimus. Price is a little bit high since Hasbro started pricing their voyager figure with add-on parts to leader price, but I got this on a discount. The figure itself is great looking and playing, mini-masterpiece quality.
