SPP Stop Motion- Premium Optimus Prime

That's right, after over ten months, me and my stop motions are back, and we're hitting the internets hard.

(Available in High Quality, Higher Quality, and HD)


So, yeah, widescreen and HD. I knew I good do it, and although I know that not that many people will take the time to load the whole video in HD, I'm glad I did it. It looks great, and I encourage you to try it. If not, there are other quality options...

Also, I figured out that I can do green screen, which is pretty cool. It should make a lot of stuff easier...

Also, I have made an animated gif out of the last half of this video. One is about the height of a gamercard, and the other is a little larger. Simply click on the picture to copy/paste the URL or save it to your hard drive. Feel free to use it in your forum signatures...

RotF News- Leader Class Jetfire Revealed!!

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the Cthulhu of Transformers, Jetfire!


(Note the tentacle like-mandibles)
I know I'm kinda late on this story, but whatever. Click on the image to enlarge it.



Here's his bio:


Nice looking vehicle mode:


He looks kinda scary, which I like!


Here's the cool part:


That's right, he combines with Prime without having to buy any extra stuff like with
Devastator. However, looking at some other pictures, it seems like he basically just turns into a backpack with extra weapons...

In other news, after careful consideration, I decided to keep my reviews on my original channel, but I will not be putting as much music in them, if any. I also have (1st movie) Leader Class Megatron and Protoform Starscream in the mail, so I'll do a review of them and Protoform Prime when I get them...

RotF News- Toy Fair Image Dump: Creme of the Crop!!

That's right, Optimus Prime, baby!!

Torso looks really accurate:


The detail on his head is absolutely outstanding:


His legs look rather awkward and rigid when they're straight. Some more action poses would be nice, but the accurate details (knee pads, tires, feet) are fantastic.


Two Swords!!!!!


Gorgeous truck mode:


The accuracy on this figure is amazing:



These two swords are sure to kick some serious ass, and he's going to need them, because here's what he's up against:



This picture obviously confirms Megatron's appearance in the film, but I don't think there was much doubt about it. Bay and his minions kept denying it, but I'm sure that they just wanted it to be a big reveal.


A quick word about the new "Mech-Alive" feature in these figures. Some thought that it was the new name for the first movie's "Automorph Technology" but it's not. Although Automorph is still present, it's not being advertised as much. Here's the difference:

Automorph: Moving one piece would cause others to move with a practical purpose, i.e. making transformations easier and faster.

Mech-Alive: Moving one piece causes others to move with an aesthetic purpose, i.e. making gears in the chest or arm move to make it look like a realistic robot.

RotF News- Leader Prime Revealed

Well, just the back of the box, which does show him.


The features it is said to have include the following:
* Double Snap Out Energy Swords
* Electronic Speech
* Light Up Eyes and Chest
* Engine Revving and Truck Racing Sounds
* Automatic Conversion Sounds
* "Mech Alive" gimmick (which might be similar to Automorphing)

The box reads:
With the destruction of Megatron, Optimus Prime thought he was finally, after millions of years, at peace. Little did he know that the escape of Starscream would draw dozens of new Decepticons to Earth. The desire that burns brightest in his spark is that the war will soon end. He is determined to see that end come, and so he works with his human comrades and the other Autobots to hunt the Decepticons that have come to Earth, and destroy them, one by one.

Hopefully the glare on the windshield is just an effect, cuz that would look retarded, and I hope he has wrists, too. But this looks way better than the first one, I know that Optimus Prime is the only figure I'm going to re-buy that was in the first one. And I can't wait to see those double swords in action in the movie!!!

Thanks to Siebertron.
