It's sad that no one pays attention to the old Robots in Disguise show, and by that I mean the one that was here a few years ago, like where Optimus Prime was a firetruck with 2 giant guns and the leader class toy had the matrix of leadership in his chest. I still have that toy. The good old days...
i hate the fact that i'm missing just three pieces for this guy, his pistol, his lights and one of the shoulders, i wish i had them still, he looks weird without them
why does optimus prime the mighty optimus prime have a pistol 0_o hes suppose to have a rifle like in g1 and its suits him more i mean its like his flashdrive intead of a gun.
Wow, compared to Armada, the RID/Car Robots line is indeed looking great both in design, engineering and playability. I love how the hips articulation remains functioning despite being in Combine mode (unlike most Combiner Transformers that often tend to suffer posability loss after fully combining). Borrowing a quote from Thew; "Bravo Takara.. BRAKARA."
Now all I need is a nendoroid Elsie (The World Only God Knows) chasing RID Optimus around the road...
I used to have this figure and the Ultra Magnus one in a combo pack type thing as a little kid, but I threw all of it away except for the Optimus figure simply because I couldn't figure out how to transform/combine them. I reaaaaaalllllly regret that decision lol
I've watched your review for RID Optimus Prime and RID Ultra Magnus. It is kind of you to help & promote the guy who sold them to you, but he doesn't sound very reliable to me. He forgot to send you accessories in BOTH videos you mentioned. Note to self: don't buy from this guy. Other than that, I thoroughly enjoy your reviews. Well done!!!! 9.99999 out of 10. Oh heck....I give it a perfect 10. Why split hairs? LOL!
very intricate transformations! I love this robot. I actually owned this guy, and utlra mag, at one point, but geez... c'mon, now, too much goin' on!...
I think you mistransformed the ladder for the super mode? there's a hinge near the rotating base so it gives the super mode more articulation and allows for the "Bazooka Ladder" positioning.
wow i remember wen i got this in 2000 i was like 4 or 5 i still have it but the tires r lost one side of the ladder lost two ladder guns lost siren llights lost and hes all scratched up
@PrimalFlash202b Yes, it does. You can make him wield it like a huge shoulder cannon, however this makes him a little more unbalanced. Looks impressive though, especially if you've got the missiles and front cannons deployed.
I don't know if I've said this before, but a while back I finally got this version and it was SIGNED BY NEIL KAPLAN! If you don't know who that is, he is the voice actor for Optimus Prime in the American cartoon of Robots in Disguise. It is a fun toy to mess with and I'm glad I finally got him.
I can't wait to get this. I always wanted this when I was a kid when RID aired on Fox Kids and the toys were released. I bought it off of ebay for 55 dollars. It's pricey, but looks it'll be worth it with the many modes this Optimus has.
Actually if you press the button on the back of the ladder multiple times or all the way, the missles launch. at least thats what my american one does
I remember him! Always wanted the "fire truck Optimus" as I called it XD I never knew it was this line or anything, just wanated the second Optimus (Armada was my first)!
They haven't been sold in stores for at least 5 years. You might be able to find one on ebay, though. Just dont hope to get a full size Sams Club exclusive. Ive looked, theirs nothing.
I used to have that too. I used it with Ultra Magnus to make Omega Prime. but I unfortunatly sold both of them at a yard sale. But now I want both RID Prime (either color) and RID Magnus *my favorite version of Ultra Magnus :)* again.
That's not entirely true. in Transformers Cypertron he was a truck and a wierd looking Plane of sorts. and in the Beast wars series he was an ape (otherwise known as Optimus Primal)
It's sad that no one pays attention to the old Robots in Disguise show, and by that I mean the one that was here a few years ago, like where Optimus Prime was a firetruck with 2 giant guns and the leader class toy had the matrix of leadership in his chest.
