5.0 out of 5 stars Great animated versions of both Megatron and Optimus
I love this collection for a number of reasons:

1. Great looking Megatron that is obviously Megatron. (Too many incarnations of the Decipticon leader could have been anyone, but just named "Megatron".) The grey and black coloring and, of course, the arm cannon make it clear who this guy is. Really like the spaceship mode as well. Much better than the movie...

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointed
One of the legs keeps coming off of the transformer. It is really disappointing for my 5 year old to keep asking me to put it back on every other minute.....disappointing for both of us!

The grey and black coloring and, of course, the arm cannon make it clear who this guy is. Really like the spaceship mode as well. Much better than the movie version.

2. Very nice Optimus that, gratefully, has the head with the face plate, not the mouth, (Optimus should not have a mouth!) unlike the other $10 version of Prime.

3. Very reasonable price that keeps me from having to spend twice as much to get the similar, larger versions of each.

4. Comes with a intro to the new series, which allowed me to preview the animated series to see if it would be worth buying.

The only drawback, in my opinion, is the "battle damage" paint patterns on both. Could have done without that.

1.0 out of 5 stars Fell apart on Christmas morning...SERIOUSLY!!, October 5, 2009
Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Transformers Animated The Battle Begins - Optimus Prime vs. Megatron (Toy)
My son adored theses toys for the short time he had them, but they eventually had to be SUPER GLUED in order to stay together. The DVD included is just a clip of a full length DVD that you can get for just a few bucks! They really did fall apart on Christmas morning- Megatron broke first and was never the same, and Optimus started breaking 2 days later. Would be a perfect toy if they stayed together, though.

As far as transformers go, this is a nice set, and the kids enjoy the video (ages 4 and 5). Pieces can pop-apart, but can be popped back together. Not even a bad buy at full price.

This was a hit at Christmas. They are a great size but one leg often comes complete off. You can just pop it back on so it isn't a big deal. We've seen the set elsewhere and they were much more expensive.

1.0 out of 5 stars It is a pass!!!, January 19, 2009
Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:2.0 out of 5 stars Educational:2.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Transformers Animated The Battle Begins - Optimus Prime vs. Megatron (Toy)
We bought this for our boys who are big Transformer fans. The problem is with the transforming part. It is definately not for young children as the transforming is very difficult. Even with the directions, it was hard to transform the toys. My sons never mastered it on their own. The plastic is very flimsy and breaks easily. These did not last a week before I found them in pieces and broke. I definately wouldn't buy these again.

This review is from: Transformers Animated The Battle Begins - Optimus Prime vs. Megatron (Toy)
We ordered the Optomus Prime vs. Megatron as a Christmas present for our 3 1/2 year old son. (I know it says for ages 5+, but he's really into Trasformers and is pretty bright for his age.) My husband figured out how to transform them which seems tricky at first, but once you do it a couple of times it's a piece of cake. My son transforms them with no problem. We have about 6 of the Tranformers Animated figures and these are actually easier to transform than some of the others...especially Bumblebee. (That one IS tricky even for my husband who is very mechanical.)
These two are very durable, too. I have to say we are all very pleased with this purchase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Optimus Prime vs. Megatron, December 31, 2008
A Kid's Review
Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Transformers Animated The Battle Begins - Optimus Prime vs. Megatron (Toy)
This product is a very good deal for the value. It's a very cool and reliable. Both Optimus and Megatron have an original battle looks. They have scratches from the war on their body parts; chest, arms, stomach. They also have a very good paint and quality. When they convert from robot to car or air craft or vice versa, both of them look really cool, really replicate the original movie. The eyes can light on when you put them facing the sun. The guns also awesome !
I strongly recommend you to buy this product!
