Yesterday, I got to skip school, and I got these three figures. I’ll share my thoughts in the comments.

Studio Series Evasion Optimus Prime
Pros: I really love the transformation. It’s simple, sure, but it’s not boringly so. I also think the alt. mode looks neat. If you fold down the chest, then you could see some clear black plastic with cracked details. The articulation is really neat, if a bit stiff. They also managed to clean up the back in a way that makes the robot mode look really cool, along with the extra detail added.

Cons: The muted “red” on the torso is a little odd-looking. The blue is fine, but the color for the chest is not the greatest. Although, I do like the streak of it on the head, I think that’s pretty neat. The ankle tilt is very limited, which for a voyager class figure, I think could’ve been better done. I also think the part on the legs slightly shifting out of place when bending the knee can be annoying. Overall, despite being a bit flawed, I still kinda enjoy it. If I had to rank it, I’d say 5.5/10

Just an fyi in case u didn’t know, he’s mistransformed in the picture, ur supposed to flip the wheels up on his legs

Yeah I know, but I personally think he looks better like that.

Bruh, but screen accuracy

Age Of The Primes Nexus Prime
Pros: I think the colors really pop and give the figure some great vibrance. Sure, it’s not accurate to his colors in Transformers One, which the design is heavily inspired by, but if anything, I kinda think it looks slightly better than the movie’s colors. The articulation is incredible. You can really get him into some awesome poses in robot mode. The transformation is, just like Evasion Optimus, simple but engaging. The jet mode is chunky, sure, but I do think that it looks pretty cool. Finally, the torso mode is pretty cool. I hope to get the Age Of The Primes Aerialbots in the future, that way I can unleash Nexus Prime’s true power! This figure for me is an easy 10/10 in my opinion.

Cons: I’m not a fan of the Nexus limbs coming out next year. The fact you need to buy AOTP Silverbolt for the skeleton frame, which is over or about $100, but you also have to pay more for limb figures that that are just repaints and remolds of other limb figures that are better in pretty much every way. Overall, I will hopefully get Silverbolt, but I’ll skip Nexus’s limbs and try to find a third party set instead.

hey just be careful when messing with silverbolt (if you get it) because the antenna bend pretty easily

Alright I will

The tiny Blaster and Soundwave keychains
I got the two of them from some blind bags I found at the same Walmart I got Evasion Optimus and Nexus Prime. I honestly love them. I was hoping to get Soundwave, which I did, happily, but in the second one, I got Blaster. Obviously, that was just luck that I got the two sound rivals, but I still find it pretty hilarious.

Cool yesterday I got the commander class jetfire I'd say it's an 8/10 mostly cuz the transformation process is both complex and somehow easy to handle

Neat.
