After seeing confirmation in Transformers #41 (Combiner Wars Part 4), I wanted to see what Ultra Prime would look like in toy form. We already have Optimus Prime and I imagined the other four – Prowl Sunstreaker, Mirage and Ironhide – using the Stunticons since those are the figures most likely to be remolded for these new figures.
My Photoshop skills are not the greatest, but I think it comes across pretty good.
This digibash is, of course, based on this image from the comic:
The video review of the Autobot Specialists, Mirage, Ironhide and Hound is here!
In this review, I point out typos in the packaging, gush over the paint jobs and fumble with the transformations! A great time will be had by all!
Welcome to Hoist’s Top Ten Transformers series! In these articles, I will be showing off the top ten transformers figures from my collection. The top ten from each toy line will be chosen and the series will culminate in an overall top ten.
Transformers: Animated (TFA) was chosen by fans of my Facebook page to be the first list presented.

From this crowd (and of those who have speaking lines) the only ones that I usually read with a particular voice are Cyclonus, Perceptor, Ultra Magnus and Ratchet – their G1 voices. I also ALWAYS read Optimus Prime with Peter Cullen’s voice.
There are other that I would read in their G1 voice because it was so distinctive but they either haven’t had speaking roles yet (like Cosmos, Powerglide and Inferno) or aren’t in this comic, yet (like Megatron, Starscream and Ironhide).
Amazingly, I don’t read Hoist as having an English accent like he was portrayed in G1 even though that made him so unique. It might also have a bit to do with the fact that he hasn’t had a lot of scenes and his Spotlight was too fast-paced and action-packed for me to think of any particular voice inflection.
The gang’s all here!
