My son got this toy this evening, so at his bedtime I asked for his opinion. What else is there to say, his eyes literally glowed when he was talking about whether he liked playing with it. Best review any toy can get in my humbe opinion.
For a breakdown of the "adult" pros and cons of this toy, here they are as I see them.
Pros:
- Seems quite durable and very age appropriate in that regard. My son is pretty hard on his stuff (to my dismay) and this Prime seems up to the task.
- Simple transformation. Again, a feature that is age appropriate.
- He looks like Optimus Prime. Sure it is stylized but it is still very recognizable as Optimus Prime. This might seem like a weird pro, but in our house, Transformers are big, and it helps to have a toy that is identifiable as one of those iconic characters.
Cons:
- Instructions say it is one step to transform. Well that's actually two steps to go from truck to robot and a four to go the other direction. Honestly this is more a truth in advertising issue as it doesn't really detract from the toy.
Debatable:
- Price, $13 for a simple childs toy. You make the call.
Summary:
My 3 year old son absolutely loves it. It is actually more age appropriate than I thought it would be as he has some of the "real" transformers. Those don't get the attention that thought they would - at the moment of writing this he is having trouble putting this toy down so he can fall asleep.
I realize that the draw of an Optimus Prime toy is dependent partly on whether the child has had exposure to the Transformers franchise, mine has (the old 80s cartoon) and he loves this toy. It is a recommended toy on its own and much more so if your child has that same exposure to Transformers.
Autobots, roll out.
