Sadly disappointing
Was so excited to built this set. The build started off fun, but as it went on, it became more disappointing. The design has a lot of flaws and seems like there is not enough support built in to it as it falls apart about every time I pick it up. The top part of the body comes off at the slightest touch. As you try to put it back together, more pieces fall off. If ...

Fragile build
I was really excited for this set. It’s a fragile build. Pieces kept falling off as I built, and transformed it. I would not recommend this set

Response from Staples :
If you find that pieces are falling off, the best thing to do is double-check your build. Sometimes there may be a piece just a little off from where it should be. If you need any help please do reach out at LEGO.build/Service-BV!

It’s Alright
My son has a new game on his pad and so thought this would be awesome to get him to play with. My son is 3 and does not build yet, I am doing the building for now. Building this wasn’t super difficult for me but it does not stay together well at all. I have a ton of Lego builds and this just did not meet my expectations for the cost and good luck getting this to turn...

Lego Optimus Prime
The set was fun to build. It looks great on display and has great shelf presence. The transformation is fun and easy. The only down sides I can bring up about the set are the lack of knee joints and if you aren't careful he can fall apart when you transform him. Once you know how to hold him he transforms fine but on your first few times go slow and be careful. I would ...

Great set
I had purchase the sound wave set first and loved it soo much I got the Optimus. It was a great build but there is one small flaw in the design of his axe. It doesn’t hold together and keeps falling apart. Should have used longer connecting rods and caps

Breaks whenever you transform
I’m extremely disappointed and dissatisfied with this set. I’ve purchased many lego sets before, including others with “moving parts” (technic vehicles, star wars ships, etc.) and this set is by far the flimsiest. For a set that is literally designed to transform between vehicle form and figurine, you would think there would be more thought put into the strength of the ...

It transforms!
Had to grab this guy. Who could ever resist a transformable transformer in LEGO?!.
Lovely to buildd. Should have better posability, especially in the legs. There are nice mods on there so for those who buys this and wants more of the set, google it!

A truly joyful experience
As both a Transformers and LEGO fan, I have to say that this is a beautiful piece, each of the steps that this set takes you through is a dream come true accompanied by the fun facts that you will find in the instructions manual. I highly recommend this set to any one that really enjoys Transformers and a pleasant building experience. 10/10.

Fantastic (with some minor tweaks)
This is a great build. Like real old school Lego and Transformers vibes across it.
I changed it slightly I included red side clips for the Matrix of Leadership to hold it in place, with the original it just falls out when the chest is open. With this small change it looks more impressive on display or messing with it.

The worst design
Really, if you can't design something well with lego, then don't. This garbage is so fragile that as long as you touch it, it'll disassemble into pieces. Transform? Are you kidding me? It barely stands as a statue.
