I picked up Ultimate Optimus Prime last night at Kmart for $89 ($31 cheaper than the standard retail price!) :D

 

Had a quick fiddle and took some photos which I'll post later... but overall this toy isn't as bad as I thought it would be, although I can definitely see why some people would be disappointed in this toy. I guess it might be because I had really low expectations for this toy, and I've refused to purchase it at the full $120 RRP - so considering that I got it at a cheaper price, I'm satisfied... but it's definitely not the greatest Optimus Prime toy out there - the cab robot is definitely highly simplified (and shrunken) to compensate for the trailer; which was to be expected. But there is some elegance to its simplicity (it is nice to have a TF that doesn't have a super complex transformation)... just needs to be cheaper.

 

As for the claim of it being the "biggest" Optimus Prime... yeah, that's a stretch -- clearly the claim is based on the length of the Butterfly mode's wingalings. Wingalings aside, the Butterfly mode's height is tall, but in a walking on stilts kind of way. The butterfly mode is also a brick with bugger all articulation other than the head and arms... not much better than Powermaster Optimus Prime's super mode. (>_>) The truck w/ trailer mode is big, but I suspect that the Target exclusive MP Convoy w/ trailer might be bigger in vehicle mode. I don't have this toy, but some of my friends do, so I'll take some comparison pics next time I get the chance. The grey colour of the trailer is underwhelming (although it's not the usually awful "Hasblo" Grey). The Mech Tech weapon is a block - they shouldn't have bothered with it -- would have preferred to see the budget better spent on the actual figure itself. And it looks a bit ungainly attached to the bottom of the trailer.

hauled in a TF Universe 2.0 Nemesis Prime MISB from silverTF today.
