With the Hasbro Transformers Optimus Prime Voice Changer Helmet, your child can become the mighty commander of the Autobots and defend the Earth against the Decepticons. Equipped with this movie-authentic helmet, kids don't just look like Optimus Prime, but also miraculously alter their voices to sound like him. Recommended for ages 5 and up, this helmet is truly the ultimate headgear for any Optimus Prime fan.

This incredibly detailed voice changer helmet is constructed of durable plastic. View larger. View Side.

Authentic Design
The Optimus Prime Voice Changer Helmet is incredibly detailed, resembling Optimus Prime right down to the grooves on his forehead plate. Constructed from durable plastic and finished in vivid colors, this helmet is virtually indistinguishable from the Optimus Prime in the movie. If your child isn't using it as a toy, you could easily put it out as a display piece. The helmet also features easy-to-adjust straps, which fit the helmet comfortably over your child's head.

Transform Your Voice
This helmet uses an incredible voice modulator system to transform your young hero's voice and make it sound just like Optimus Prime's. It doesn't matter whether you're a little kid or a full-grown adult -- when you speak through the microphone, your voice will instantly be changed into the rich baritone of the Autobots commander. In addition to changing its wearer's voice, the helmet also features sound effects and has five different voice clips from the movie. Unforgettable lines such as "I am Optimus Prime" can be played at the touch of a button, making this the ideal role-playing toy.

About Transformers
The Transformers began as a Hasbro toy line back in 1983, featuring toy vehicles that could transform into robots. The toys soon inspired an entire universe of fictional story lines, pitting the two factions of Transformers -- the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons -- against one another. A live-action movie based on the Transformers was released in 2007 and has continued the toy line's extreme popularity. With toys such as the Optimus Prime Voice Changer Helmet, kids can bring home the struggle between the Autobots and Decepticons.

4.0 out of 5 stars I, Robot- great for adults too, June 22, 2007

By	A. Soule "Minx_in_La" (Carmel,CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:3.0 out of 5 stars 

Here's an embarrassing thing- I love this helmet. And I'm in my 40's. I first saw it in a video on YouTube (MarkDayComedy) and was smitten. It actually fits the adult head, and is very adjustable with lots of straps inside the helmet. You have to get it positioned correctly, or the nose pad will sit very heavily on the bridge of your nose- which is not comfortable! But fidget around with the straps, and it will fit anyone.

The eye sockets are golden in hue, and while you can see fine to stalk around the house, I certainly wouldn't recommend driving in it!

The supplied voices are very clear. The helmet comes with well known Transformers phrases- "I AM OPTIMUS PRIME!"- and the microphone is adjustable so you can speak in to it and have your own robot voice boom out nicely. If someone is standing next to you, they can hear your voice as well, but that's a minor point.

The battery casing is on top of the head, and covered by a snap on piece that I fear will break eventually, but what do you want for a little over 20 bucks? Small children will probably break the pointy bits off the top of the helmet first, but older children (10? depends on your kid) should be able to keep it in one piece. (UPDATE- HOLY COW??!! THIS IS SELLING FOR NEAR EIGHTY DOLLARS?!?!?! NOOOOOOO!!!! Look around for a better price! Wooo...)

And if you don't have any makeup on and the postman or UPS guy comes to the door, you can always pop the helmet on and scare the heck out of him :)

5.0 out of 5 stars "Autobots Transform and Roll Out", June 27, 2007

By	Frank R. Harris Jr. - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 

I give this product 5 stars across the board. There are two versions of this helmet one that has Peter Cullins voice "the true Optimus Prime voice" and the other one with Gary Chalk I beleive who does the voice of Optimus Primal in Beast Wars. You can tell be the phrases next to the "Try Me", Peter Cullins "The Real Prime" voice will say "Real Movie Voice" and Gary Chalks' will say "Battle Phrases"

5.0 out of 5 stars Great For Adults Also, November 28, 2007

By	J. Cox "Reverendspam" (The Hills of North Carolina) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 

I am 43 years old and bought this for a Christmas present for my 4 year old. It arrived at the office today and I just had to open it to check it out and make sure there were batteries in it. This thing is awesome. I'm an officer and just could not resist putting the helmet on walking around my office making statements like "Halt, who goes there" and "get down on the ground with your hands behind your back". My peers of course told me to grow up, but they laughed and it was all in good fun as they called me Robocop.

I think I made more sales for amazon today in my office alone.

I know if I had this much fun with it my 4 year old should have a grand time. It is a large helmet that will fit an adult, but there are adjustable straps that should fit a child with no problem. It lacks padding inside and could be dangerous for a young child if the straps are not adjusted correctly.

It is made of fairly strong plastic that has some angles inside the helmet. I will most likely add some padding from an old bicycle helmet. Knowing my child, he will get in some fictitious battle with his sister and she will probably conk him over the head (playing) and he might get hurt. You may have to supervise a young child while they wear this. Thats the only con I see with this. It is rec commended for ages 5+, but even for ages 5-10 this product can be potentially dangerous due to lack of padding inside.

Overall, this is a well built product that should provide hours of fun. I purchased the Transformers DVD as well so my child can watch the move and get into the character. I think I will have more fun with this than he will, such is the life of a big kid ;)
