TRANSFORM and Roll Out! Hasbro's @markclonus gives up the preview of how the Transformers Legacy Wave 4 United G1 Optimus Prime goes from vehicle to robot mode. Most interesting is we get to see how the fists change out. Watch this new clip below to see it now.

Ignore my mittens, but Markclonus why are you wearing oven mitts!
Koki san over in Takara Tomy was an absolute dream to work with on this project. I’ll try to keep the flow of information going here, I would still like to show off the added sculpt detailing on the legs and such.
Till all are one!
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.
