Product Description

Product Description

The Transformers Animated Optimus Prime Battle Blaster converts from an eight-wheeled truck mode into a mobile gun platform designed to resemble a silver and orange blaster cannon framed by Optimus Prime's two-fisted grasp.

A well-trained natural leader, this comparatively untested version of Optimus Prime swells wistfully on the accounts of old battles until he finally received his first assignment: pitted against Megatron and the other Decepticons, Prime leads the Autobots in a venture to keep the All Spark out of the tyrannical grasp of Megatron.

We love this toy. My son has son much fun with it, both as a car and as a gun. He's had it for three months and still hasn't gotten bored, which is unusual for him.

Let me describe this thing.

This is a meaty truck.

Large and heavy. I got this for my 3 yr old although box says 5+. Really perfect for a 3 yr old except for the hefty weight when held in the gun position.

My 3 yr old loves the sounds and sayings even though he isn't into Transformers. In gun mode, pressing the buttons yields 4 spoken sayings. Pressing the triggers generates a shooting sound.

In truck the button does motorized sounds.

It's easy to convert from truck to gun and back. It's one quick motion of holding the two handles on the truck. But again heavy to hold as a gun for a younger than 5 yr old. And not something a 3 yr old can quite transform yet.

Sounds are loud. But my 3 yr old imitates the spoken lines which is a hilarious.

Unit overall is durable, but there are 2 plastic flaps that came off quickly as others mentioned. WE just left them off. You don't really notice them off.

In truck mode it's pretty much unbreakable. In gun mode there's more of a chance of damaging 2 parts that stay "flapped out" if you were to drop the gun on pavement or step on it if it's on the ground, but overall solid and so far so good.

Paid $15 on Amazon.

Son got this for Christmas a year ago and is still playing with it. The only negative that I have is that the side flaps come off a lot. They snap right back into place but with they would just stay on.
