An Unnecessary Toy
By A Customer
Powerlinx Optimus Prime is much like the ordinary Optimus Prime. They have the unfolding trailor, the minicon, and the same transforming method. The only real difference is a modified Sparkplug minicon and a new paint job. I find this toy totally unnecessary. The original Armada Optimus Prime is still available. Who would want another one of the same toy? (Unlike Starscream and Thundercracker, this one is the same character.) I recommend the original (non-Powerlinx) over this one. The Prowerlinx version has a wacko paint job. Optimus Prime looks like a clown. Despite Hasbro's intersiting decision to make repainted models of existing transformers, Optimus Prime is still a good buy. He isn't very articulate in robot form, but still is impressive. In Super-robot form, Prime's arms are very articulate. His exhaust pipes combine to form a two-barrelled gun. This Optimus can also combine with Jetfire and (the soon to come)Overload to form an awesome robot. Overall this is okay, but get the original Armada release. That one does justice to the original Optimus Prime.

By Chris Hart
OK I know this toy has some flaws but you gotta respect that it is still Optimus Prime! Granted, anything besides the 20th anniversary Optimus is going to be slightly lackluster. Considering this is the third one of the Armada series Optimus' I have purchased (Superlink and standard Armada) this toy is still great. I think the quality that impresses me is the asthetic looks of the toy. He looks like a beefed up Prime and not like the overweight, rotund Prime of the Energon series. Plus, you need more than one of these anyway so you can have the Super Optimus and the regular one with the battlestation.The only real flaw I have found with these is that the Front grill of the truck pops off all the time and doesnt really want to stay in place. Second, the light in his hand quit working after 15 mins of "play" time.Finally, I would recommend him to anyone who is collecting and needs multiple Optimus's to complete their showcase.

Optimus Prime almost perfect
By Matthew E. Dacus
Okay so I will get my gripes out of the way first: To be 100% awesome you have to get jetfire and overload to combine with this prime. In a typical Megatron vs: Optimus Prime scenario, Prime has power link after powerlink to trump megatron, who is stuck with tidal wave and minicons, if you add the skyboom shield and starsaber maybe its a match, a clunky...awkward....match....This figure alone is pretty good, the uncombined version looks more like prime than the power links version, and his top half looks awkward on top of his huge legs, which are his base as well. This figure is good, but once prime powerlinks with his base and inherits his huge gun, as opposed to his little smokestack clear energon pea shoooter. All in all this isn't a bad figure, they took prime from his previous firetruck version, kept the same theory of base becomes part of him, and added minicons and the ability to power links, be prepared to spend some money if you want the total package and get overload and jetfire!
