Some credit for this video goes to Mr. Plinkett, who taught me that if you hate something enough, you can talk about it.

War For Cybertron Optimus Prime is a hotly anticipated figure. A classic character from a great new video game?

Ok, so this didn’t turn out as good as we hoped. They can’t all be great can they?
