Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
I like the new Prime head, but I feel it's missing a lot of detail compared to the original version.

So Prime has new sounds? What about the lights, are they still orange? I would have liked to see blue instead, like in the movie.

New head definitely looks better, even if it does have a "wascally wabbit" feel to it.

Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
Meh, after seeing what's coming from Animated & Universe, I'm having real problems finding any interest in more Movie stuff. I plan to get the repaints of Megatron & Starscream, but that's for the sake of Con character completion over anything else. Once I get those two, I'm officially closing the book on Movie figures. Until 2009, that is.

Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
I can't even see the chrome on Megatron, or is it just grey all over so that it can finally be movie accurate unlike the original one with a blue head?
Is there any other detailed changes on the Premium Optimus other than the head and sword? Don't remember if the lights glows blue or red though...

Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
Prime is an easy pass for me... the original is good enough. Megs on the other hand I look forward to seeing in person... but the pic does seem to be lacking in the chrome look.

Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
I have to agree with dak and pud333 that the remolded head on Premium Optimus Prime looks 10x better than the original, however I don't think I'm willing to purchase the same figure twice... well, at least not at canadian SRP anyways.

Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
I really can't get into the movie line of toys.. I miss the blockiness of the older generations. These new ones remind me of the Beastwars-styled releases of the Gen1 characters. They just look and feel cheap. I dunno, it's hard to explain! I guess I miss the diecast blunt objects of my childhood
Just IMO, of course.

Re: Premium Leader Optimus Prime & Megatron out in Hong Kong
Then you might like the simpler and blockier (with BW/movie-like articulation) styling of Animated.
