Playskool Heroes Heroes Transformers Rescue Bots Epic Optimus Prime Figure

These are AMAZING! My boys nearly lost their precious little marbles over this HUGE Playskool Heroes Transformers Rescue Bots Epic Optimus Prime Figure! I bought two when the price had dropped significantly, and it made my little ones' Christmas that year! After owning these for over two years now, they are STILL holding up to two very rough boys. There's some scratches and dings, but NOTHING is broken on Optimus! As a parent, you know how amazing that is for a toy to hold up that well! Here are some features I like:Epic Optimus Prime figure stands 22 inches highChest opens to reveal command centerMini-figures fit in command center - sold separatelyA feature I don't like:Simple articulation figure, non-transformingTry explaining to two toddlers why Optimus doesn't transform into truck mode! They love it, but they have mentioned to me several times how they wish Optimus would transform. I know, boys, I know.

My son is all about Transformers - so when he received this as a birthday gift he was beyond thrilled. I will say though that while I like the size, the overall quality is so so. I thought there would be more to Optimus, for example you would think his legs would be enclosed by the back of Optimuss legs are open. While this may have been made this way on purpose I kind of feel like the open legs give him a cheap look and feel, like the company skimped on product making him this way. That being said, my son loves the toy and has played with him everyday.

The product description indicated a wheight of the product when the product arrived it had different wheigh wich make it more dificult to transport and more expensive to take it home

I'm rating this item based on my own observations, so I will update it after Christmas. I purchased this for my four-year-old son who has only recently become interested in Transformers. I thought this was cool-looking online, and I purchased it during a Lightning Deal, so the price was OK. I was more than a little disappointed when it arrived in the mail. It came packaged in a plain brown box...and when I opened it, it really looked like the item had been used--no packaging or tags whatsoever. Honestly, it appeared like something that I could have bought it at the Salvy for $3. It is made of a flimsy plastic, and it has little play-with-ability. It has areas to store Transformer figures...but little else. It moves a bit, but was just not what I expected. On the upside, it's quite large and the detail on the character is better than I would have expected. I have mixed feelings on this...I'm leaning towards the lower end of the rank than the higher, but I will keep you posted. ;)

Pretty plain, but a big hit at a 5 year old birthday party. The sheer size of this thing makes it exciting! Heads up though, it comes in a big brown box. I am the type of person that feels like every child deserves to unwrap a gift, not open a bag at their party, but I felt weird wrapping a big brown box. It felt almost like I was trying to pass off a cheap knock-off. It isn't - the box is from Hasbro.

I got a great deal from amazon on this toy. My son loves it. He already has the chase and blades bot that go with him and this really compliments those bots quite well. Rescue bots is one of his top favorite shows. Normal price for this item isn't bad, but it was still nice to get it for cheaper. They tell you how big this item is going to be but my husband and I did not expect it to be that big. Great, fun toy. The middle chest area is big. Its for the extra people you can buy to go with the bots.If your child is like mine they will put other toys in the chest and have just as much fun.

While my son loved it and plays with it a lot, I have to say that the paint started peeling off on his chest after a few days of use. And my son didn't do anything harsh with it nor got it wet or anything... So the quality is not that great.

We bought this for my sons 4th birthday and he loves it. It does not do much. The head turns the arms move the hands turn and he moves at the waist. The chest opens for small toy storage. I did not find the plastic to be that flimsy. I think the size alone is what is so appealing. Also for $11 totally worth the look on his face when he opened it! If the price stays the same and they are still in stock I will order another one for my nephew around Christmas.
