I'm bored. Let's go somewhere I want to buy some new Funko Pops. So I thought okay. Let's head out Let's go to Walmart. We haven't left the house in a few days and just see what we can find a daddy Dylan day If you will so we go to Walmart in the first place I stop is I go into the electronics to look for Funko Pops Not really seeing anything or any character that he knows. I figure let's swing by the transformers. I'll maybe I'll luck out and I Did I found pretty much the entire wave one of Kingdom when I first walked up course I saw the bright yellow package right off the bat hanging on the shelf and So I'm looking I'm like, okay. These look freshly stocked I mean there it is full the shells are full of these figures But I'm not seeing any of the voyagers But at the beginning of the aisle is a palette and this associate is actually working on Filling the shelves. She's cutting boxes and going up and down the aisles. So I walk around and I'm looking and there I see Hasbro transformers Voyager assortment. So I kind of do the look both ways thing rip into the box and I got Primal and cyclonus and just to let you guys know there are three bots to a pack two primal one cyclonus so I'm gonna quit talking bad about my Walmart because for the last few trips. I've been amazed I found sound wave and now I found all these guys now Unfortunately, my Walmart hasn't carried anything other than Deluxes and voyagers since the power of the primes line every leader class or I guess they're called core class legend class figures I always have to get those online. So that kind of sucks But man, I am absolutely thrilled that I found this entire kingdom line So I'm going to knock out intros for all of these figures just so I can get them cracked open and Mess around with them. So let's start off with The featured bot for this video Transformers war for Cybertron Kingdom Optimus primal. I Love the artwork on these new packages. They look amazing You got Optimus primal right there in robot mode. There he is in gorilla mode. You see Optimus there Just this chest that I'm still this whole teeny tiny window still really weird for me Back of the packaging you got Optimus primal in robot mode and beast mode Let's say that's pretty much it the side of the box. You got the new kingdom artwork So, yes, I am so excited. So without further ado, let's get this guy out of the package and check him out and Welcome to Patriot Prime reviews Now once you get Optimus primal all opened up and out of his packaging You'll see he does come with a sheet of instructions and as usual These are very well illustrated and very easy to follow. He also comes with this trading card now This one has dino bot on it. I really like the hologram look of these cards But these cards are more than meets the eye. They're also a sticker. So peel the sticker back Revealing dino bot Scorponok black arachnia and it looks like air razor Right there. I love that Hologram look. It's so late 80s. I dig it But I really wish you get a card depicting the figure you buy instead of just the random ones that they're throwing in Optimus also comes with his two Swords, so that's very Beast Wars accurate. I love the looks of these swords. They're really really cool And of course you have Optimus primal himself now the very first thing I noticed when taking this guy out of the box was Man, he is small especially compared to his Voyager Wave mate Cyclonus here See They are both voyagers both the exact same price and I just really Don't get that I've heard some people say we're paying more money for all the sculpted details And the fact that this is a hefty figure, but man same thing here Cyclonus is great Big hefty figure, so I don't know why we're paying $30 for a deluxe size figure But it is what it is. That's the way the Transformers has been going lately my personal opinion I think Hasbro realized hey, we're giving them an Optimus primal that turns into the season one gorilla Throw $30 on it. They're going to buy you anyway. And yes, I did now taking a closer look at Optimus He looks great. I mean he looks like he stepped right out of the TV show Great paint applications. The face sculpt is Amazing they did a really good job with this guy molded details, too You can really make out all the fur all over the figure Molded details up there on the chest his chest panel Down here on the waist the legs great paint applications. I love the Pistons right there for the feet. That's really cool Now articulation for the guy his head is on a ball joint can look up and down and do a complete 360 The joints on this guy are fantastically tight. I'll let you know that right now arms 360 they can go up and down there is a Elbow or excuse me bicep swivel, but it's more up here at the shoulder than the bicep also, there is Wrist rotation For the legs legs can go up They can go back. There is a knee bend and ankle tilt now Optimus comes with some hidden weapons Which is really cool in the wrist here if you look underneath There's a little panel right there push that Which will release these Wrist blasters just like he had in the television show and he actually has these on both arms to push up This one's a little tighter than the other Push up and out They do have a little hinge on them so they can point up they can point straight ahead they can point up and They are blast effect compatible But you have to find the right blast effect to fit on there So these that fits really well, but a blast effect like this Actually, I'll take that back. It's fitting now wouldn't do it earlier, but I don't think No, you can't get well there you go. So yeah, that works. It looks really really cool The shoulder cannons up here beside his head. Those are blast effect compatible, too So there we go. I dig it. I love the hidden weapons Nice throwback to the original Beast Wars figure now Optimus could also wield his swords Got one for each hand I'll forget to show the articulation there in the hands so the fists of the fingers They're all hooked together they can open they can close you can put the sword in like so Take the other sword And now Optimus is ready to roll I really like this figure the only fault I see with robot mode right here It's a very bad gap I mean you can push this up like so leaves a gap there in his gut you push it forward a gap up top But it's not bad if you look straight ahead. You don't see it, but at an angle That kind of sucks now if you're not a fan of the shoulder cannons, you can actually hide these Take his whole back section here bring this back and you can flip those cannons down into the robot body So they're out of sight. So now let's get Optimus transformed into gorilla mode So first thing we're going to do is remove the weaponry And now what you're going to do is just like I did earlier to hide the guns the shoulder cannons Don't pull this chest open Pull this piece up Rotate it around take the gorilla head flip this up Rotate that around and then press this back into place And then take this portion here, which was the robot chest Flip it around forming the gorilla chest And just snap those back in place bringing the head down And there we have the gorilla torso for the arms. You just take these shoulder pieces Snap down in place over the red and white portion of his arms There we go You're going to take the waist. I forgot to show waist waist rotation. I'm not sure if I showed that or not So you're going to turn this a 180 Bring this section down it actually tabs it and there's a slot right there that lines up of that tab Rotate this around now Bring the arms forward You're going to take the legs And just kind of collapse the legs onto themselves like so Like I said, there are really tight joints on this figure So you want to get the legs looking like this Bring the butt flap down Back flap Bring the legs up Take the robot feet Fold those up Put the gut flap back in place Rotate the hands accordingly Extend the fingers And there we have optimus primal in Gorilla mode and gorilla mode looks really cool. I love The face sculpt the face sculpt looks awesome All the molded fur carries over very well in this mode though You still can see some robot paint applications with the white And the red of course the robot feet hanging off the back Articulation pretty much the same as robot mode arms all over the place the gorilla head can look up And down and it kind of has a slight Rotation the legs Legs can move as well, but they're a little bit limited now because of the angle Now you can also bring these around and fold up like so Like I said very tight so you can kind of have him in a standing position But the problem with that it just it looks really really weird. It just doesn't Work right the legs just really don't collapse on each other the way that I think they should Also here on the back you can see the hinges or the joint for the cannons But other than that Really cool looking gorilla mode And now for a quick gorilla comparison. Here's the brand new kingdom optimus primal With his generation one self so yes He's come a long way though like I said He's a little small and some of the things that carry over if you look on the back of the gorillas Those robot parts still show through But other than that I'm really happy with the figure and I think he looks great And now for some quick size comparisons here is the new transformers war for cybertron kingdom optimus primal With generation one optimus prime The original beast wars optimus primal now if you happen to have paleotrex One of paleotrex's weapons is you can pull the head out and make this mace which looks just like The original optimus primes flail and you can actually remove One sword here Pop that in his hand Doesn't give him much length, but There you go. So that That looks all right. So there's one Bone weapon that actually it doesn't give him much Length at all for striking But still it's something you can do And here he is with earth rise deluxe class trail breaker just so I can complain about the size of optimus primal one more time Transformers war for cybertron kingdom optimus primal is a great optimus primal figure I mean, he looks like he stepped right out of the tv show He's loaded with weapons though He doesn't have his mace like the original did but if you have paleotrex you can do what I showed earlier Now speaking of weapons one thing I forgot to show off There is weapon storage on the back of the figure both of the swords Have these tabs right here That match up to this slot right here on his back, but you have to face the swords where the curve part is facing out Just have that into place And this weapon storage works for both robot and gorilla mode So I really like this figure. I just hate the fact that I paid $30 For a deluxe, but there you go guys transformers war for cybertron kingdom optimus primal So does a transformers war for cybertron kingdom optimus primal belong in your collection? Well, if you're a beast wars fan, absolutely This is a great reimagining of that classic beast wars character I mean, he looks like he just stepped out of the screen and I love it He's got a lot of playability too. He's got the hidden weapons there in his arms The swords the launchers or the blasters up here by his shoulders He looks great great paint applications great molded detail The only issue he is too damn small for a voyager I know some people are going to complain about the scale and all But for $30 I'd like my figures just a little bit bigger as I showed earlier. Where is he? Cyclonus optimus primal both voyagers both $30 But it is what it is. We're going to be paying for the figures we love No matter what but all in all I still prefer The original optimus primal to this guy this one This is an amazing toy Now guys, if you enjoyed the video, don't forget to like don't forget to subscribe and don't forget to hit that bell icon To get notified when I upload new reviews And make sure and stop by my channel Friday night at 9 p.m. Where I'm going to interview the iconic Stan Bush live Once again guys, this is patriot brine signing out
