Today, we have some looks comparing the brand new 2024 United G1 Universe Optimus Prime with the Missing Link G1 Optimus Prime figures.
Obviously, the United mold is good bit smaller as a deluxe class. However, he has some tricks of his own with extended articulation like we have seen on the Missing Link, as well as being able to hitch up with the original G1 and MP44 trailers.
Otherwise, he's JUST PRIME! Check out the compares thanks to @微博正文
So small!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Both are a pass for me. It's too bad most folks in our community have such low bar expectations from Hasbro that we seem to keep lowering the standards. Anyone else concerned about the size of this United Optimus? It seems these deluxe figures are slowly down sizing to a legacy scale. I saw the TF One Optimus the other day at the store and was shocked that Hasbro has the audacity to charge $25 for such a tiny figure. From what I have seen thus far I'm guessing this United figure is just as small. With that, this one is a pass for me. You are better off saving your bucks and investing in the studio 86 figure....assuming you can find it.

I agree! I would love to see a Nemesis Prime repaint eventually too!

Holdup... Is that a movable skirt piece? This thing might actually be a solid (affordable) alternative to Missing Link!
I would love to see similar takes on G1 figures like this. Essentially modernized G1 figures. It would have been figure of the year if they opted to add some chrome for the pipes, grill, and wheels. Imagine a G1 Sunstreaker remake? That would be amazing!!!!
Interesting although doesn't this defeat the purpose of Missing Link G1 Optimus? Also, given Hasbro's history of milking every mold, should we wait for a Studio 86 Leader Class release with the trailer?
Ah yes, the poor man's Missing Link.
