Transformers Toys Studio Series 61 Voyager Class Dark of the Moon Sentinel Prime Action Figure – Adults and Kids Ages 8 and Up, 6.5-inch

Product Information

I would like to take this opportunity to one again point out just how well-done and accurate the sculpted detail on these Studio Series molds can be. You can really tell they are leaps and bounds above the concept art-originated figures of the earlier films' toylines. Of course, it's not always accompanied by the proper paint applications to bring it truly to life, but it's still there if the owner so desires to do that themselves. Unfortunately, due to being used for transformation, the port for the collector display stand on his two-piece rear waist tends to be misaligned, and the hole is not shallow enough to fully secure its connection. Sentinel Prime hails from an older time when Cybertron was the galaxy's crown jewel and the Transformer race was full of promise and potential. The only known remaining Prime, he personified what a leader should be: wise, compassionate, and a more than worthy warrior. Revered by both Autobot and Decepticon, few would dare stand against his shield and Primax Blade. Just before the outbreak of the Great War, Sentinel Prime and his inner retinue conducted a goodwill tour of Cybertron's various colony worlds aboard the Titan Lodestar, unaware of mounting political tensions on Cybertron between Senator Orion Pax's Autobots and Megatron's Ascenticons. The World In Your Eyes Part Three With Sentinel Prime offworld, Orion opted to take command of the Senate in between filling in for Sentinel's other duties, such as welcoming newly forged Transformers like Gauge into the world, The World In Your Eyes Part Four while instructing Ironhide to keep Sentinel Prime informed. The World In Your Eyes Part Three During the Cybertronian Civil War, Sentinel Prime was killed. Prior to his destruction, he bestowed the Matrix of Leadership to Optimus Prime, who became the new leader of the Autobots. Transformers Online [2]

Sentinel Prime was Autobot leader for the first 500,000 years of the Great War. With trithyllium alloy armor, an electro-disrupter and a large variety of other weapons, including various forms of artillery shell, a solar energy rifle and energon-charged sword, Sentinel Prime was a giant among giants. Hardwired Like the Cyberverse Dark Sentinel Prime, this figure's Autobot symbols are deliberately scratched out. However, his box bio remains coy about his true nature. Sentinel was a direct descendant of Primus, the first Cybertronian, and one of the last surviving Primes. With a firm but just hand, he ruled the Autobots before the war. During the war, he named Optimus his successor before departing on a mission into deep space, only for his ship to be shot down by enemy fire... Laying Sentinel Prime's tattered body to rest, Optimus and Ironhide reflected on his last words and their meaning. Despite their past differences, Optimus Prime respectfully praised Sentinel for rising to meet the demands of leadership the Matrix placed on him and hoped to do the same. Awakenings

Sentinel's 2007 IDW design was based on his first (and otherwise only prior) appearance in the 1988 Marvel comics panel shown above. The resemblance is a little more obvious in Spotlight: Optimus Prime than it is in his more stylized appearance in Megatron Origin, but his yellow-red-and-orange armor, crested helm, and the row of three small "windows" on his chest are all derived from his Marvel look. IDW's Sentinel is also very heavily armed, not unlike the description of the character given by the Hardwired novel.

Attinger's playing card of Sentinel Prime was barely visible in Age of Extinction. It wasn't until a prop auction for the Transformers film series held in 2019 that a clearer view of the card was shown. [11] Long ago, Sentinel Prime was the leader of the Autobots before Optimus Prime during the war on Cybertron. But as the conflict dragged on, with no end in sight, Sentinel found himself forced to make a drastic choice: a secret alliance with Megatron. Believing that it was only through the sacrifice of another world that Cybertron could be restored, Sentinel developed teleportational space bridge technology to transport resources across interstellar distances—but, knowing that Optimus would never condone his course of action, Sentinel kept his plans a secret, claiming the bridge was a means of transporting troops into battle. Sentinel's intention was to depart for the chosen planet— Earth—and meet Megatron there later, but during the battle that erupted around the departure of Sentinel's ship the Ark, the vessel was damaged and sent spiralling off into the depths of space, presumed lost forever. The war was left to continue with none save Megatron aware of Sentinel's treachery.You're absolutely right. For it even look like it could take off the ground, the stabilizers both horizontal and vertical need be substantially bigger. Since clearly an F-4 semblance wasn't gone for, I much would've rather they ditched the puny horizontal stabs and just made a bigger vertical stabilizer down the middle like a Euro delta. Underside kibble aside, it just doesn't look like an aircraft that could even realistically fly.

The chest is fake, the alt mode is inaccurate… urgh… Like, was a fake chest really necessary? But his Ark merely crashed somewhere near Earth in 1962, a fragment of it landing in Fiesole, Italy. When a human discovered it in 2011, Starscream and Soundwave tried to prevent the Autobots from getting that fragment and finding their way to the lost Ark. The Autobots finding Sentinel was not an option for Starscream and the concept unnerved him... Apparently, the fragment had the power to make martyrs of the good and bad alike.
