Transformers: Age of the Primes - Alchemist Prime (Deluxe Class)

The metallic paint apps on his chest and shoulders really pop under my desk lamp, and the articulation in the elbows lets him hold the included hammer in a two-handed stance. He's got a nice heft for a Deluxe Class figure, and the robot mode proportions feel solid and intentional.

The transformation sequence is surprisingly fluid for a figure this size, and the articulation in the shoulder joints lets me pose him holding his staff at dramatic angles. He looks great next to other Primes on the shelf.

The metallic paint apps on Alchemist Prime’s chest and legs really pop under light, giving him that ancient, mystical vibe. His transformation is clever and satisfying, with no loose joints out of the box.
