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. Prepare for battle with this AUTOBOT® leader by your side! In robot mode, this mighty warrior features electronic speech and light-up eyes and chest that are sure to discourage enemy attackers! With snap-out energy swords, this good guy is ready to take on DECEPTICON forces once and for all! In tough truck mode, get in gear with engine revving and racing sounds and cool conversion sounds that let you know this hero means business! MECH ALIVE gearing reveals moving armor panels and internal gears that let you recreate some of your favorite movie scenes â or create your own! Team up with this awesome ally and roll out!

 BOOO to You Hasbro, Your New Transformers STINK! February 20, 2010
Special K (Illinois, USA)
My husband purchased the Optimus Prime Transformer for our 5 year old son, and it's AWFUL!!! No one in our house can figure it out. My husband is probably the only one who could figure it out and that's cause he is an engineer with a degree in physics, and he doesn't have time to even try. I am so frustrated with Hasbro and their "smarty-pants" developers who came up with this design. IT STINKS!! It's cheap plastic with parts that pop off and the instructions look like it was sketched in pencil and xerox copied-who can read that? Impossible to make out any detail in order to convert Optimus into a truck. I hate disappointing my children, and it has been a big disappointment to them knowing that it's been a half a day and Mommy still cant convert this dawg-on toy into a TRUCK!! Thanks a lot for the happy memories Hasbro!!! PS - I am so glad to find Mommies and Daddies out there who are having the same problems I am. Most of the "collectors" seem to be in a reality vacuum.
Awful Gift February 16, 2010
Ginzel Leny (Staten Island, NY)
I bought this transformer for my son as a christmas gift and even with the directions we it takes forever to transform. Parts fall off easily and he was so fustrated at how long it took to convert that he gave up on the toy altogether. I am not happy at all with this purchase.
 A Favorite February 15, 2010

I bought this for my son. He is eight. He is a huge fan of Transformers and has many of them, but this is one of his favorite.
 Too complicated even for adult. February 14, 2010
Ammi (Illinois United States)
Idea is really good, but execution is terrible. It is almost impossible to transform from one stage to another without instruction, but instruction is not very clear. Even you follow all steps carefully, it does not guarantee the success.
 Must have patience of a saint February 8, 2010
C. Hoyt (Glen Burnie, MD)
I spent 4 hours on Christmas morning assembling this thing for my kid. I'm 31 and grew up with transformers. I also worked on jets for the Air Force so I consider myself mechanically competent. This thing is in a whole new realm of complication. I searched YouTube for advice because the written instructions were hopeless. Finally a teenage kid's video post helped me assemble it. Even then it was incredibly challenging. 4 hours and I finally assembled it! But it didn't roll. Its a GD truck and it doesn't roll. The hood stayed together for about 2 minutes before it popped apart. So now its a Transformer that doesn't transform. Since it couldn't roll like a truck, I had to transform it back.
Bottom line: They bit off more than they could chew. Bravo to the engineers but boo to the testers.
