OPTIMUS PRIME BY HASBRO

Transformers Dark Of The Moon will be on cinemas tomorrow so i would like to show you this figure of
Optimus Prime the fearless but compassionate leader of the heroic Autobots.

Upon the destruction of their planet Cybertron. The Autobots and Decepticons sought the power of the cube. After discovering that the cube was on Earth Megatron followed it and crash landed on the planet. Lucky for us he was frozen in ice and his quest to obtain the cube was put on halt. Optimus and several Autobots also came to Earth to stop Megatron from getting his hands on the Cube. Thus the continuation of the Cybertronian war here on Earth. With the help of the boy Sam Witwicky and several USAF personnel lead by Capt. Lennox, the Autobots prevailed and Megatron was entombed in the deepest part of the ocean. [story from the movie Transformers 1]

On the second movie Revenge of the fallen. It was revealed that in ancient times humans and Cybertronians had already made contact with each other. During this time one of the Primes became corrupted and sought the power of the Matrix. The other Primes sacrificed their life and bodies to hide the Matrix to prevent the Fallen from gaining its power. At present time, the Autobots formed an alliance with the humans creating the NEST. This group hunts down the remaining Decepticons here on Earth. Secretly the NEST was also task to safe guard the remaining shard from the Cube. Little do they know that a tiny piece of the Cube was in the possession of Sam. After the Fallen revived Megatron and took the shard. They also managed to kill Optimus. Thus the quest to find the Matrix of leadership started. Sam together with his friends searched for the Matrix in order to revive the last of the Prime's. To cut the story short they found the Matrix and revived Optimus Prime. Thus defeating the Fallen. But Megatron and his troops escaped and is still free to plan their revenge.

US ARMY FCS ACU VERSION BY SOLDIER STORY

Here is Soldier Story's Future Combat Systems (FCS) in ACU pattern. This figure is similar to the FCS MultiCam version except for his weapons and some other minor stuff.


Standard box with photos of the figure


Figure out of the box, in his ACU pattern uniform


His belt came with suspenders.


Some pouches in ACU pattern


Like the MultiCam version he uses Crye precision body armour with four M4 mag pouches, smoke grenades, radio with pouch and hydration system.


MBITR radio with pouch and hydration system


The main difference between the MultiCam version and ACU version are their weapons.
For the side arm the MultiCam version had a M9 while here we get a cool M1911 pistol.
And for the primary weapon they both use the HK416 but the MultiCam version had 14.5 inch barrel while we get a HK416 in 10.4 inch barrel, making it compact and suitable for close quarter combat.
His Hk416 also include 2 types of magazine. Four 30 round steel magazine and four 20 round aluminum alloy magazine.




He had a cool looking Batman patch. A little weird for a military figure but it looks nice


The box set came with a tan Mich2002 helmet, its color was kind of different from the ACU uniform so I swapped it for a darker tone.


The Transformer meets the Transporter
The MultiCam version looks like Capt. Lennox while the ACU version looks like Jason Statham
