Takara Tomy AD-31 Armor Knight Optimus Prime – the best transforming Age of Extinction (AOE) version of Optimus Prime that is currently out there.

One of the best features of the AD31 Optimus is the swappable face. At last, we have an actual Optimus Prime who face can transform from masked to unmasked, whatever the purpose the mouth serves. Bumblebee was the first to have a transforming gimmick with his face mask starting from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen toys and figures.

Another feature of the AD31 Optimus is the better paint job. Good job Takara! We finally have an Optimus Prime leader class from Age of Extinction whose colors are not all silver and greyish. It is really the best transforming figure of the Age of Extinction Optimus Prime out there. The shield and sword also is different than that of the first releases of the toy.
