compared with http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-images/screen-captures/images/54774-1/Transformers+Revenge+of+The+Fallen_SC_1501.jpg
Your opinion? Given the featurette said Gypsy is the hero Jaeger. Does this mean it's the "Optimus Prime" of the Jaegers in a sense?

MemberNoobJun-20-2013 9:49 PMI don't think there is really any comparison.
Gipsy Danger, for example, is merely a vehicle no matter how legendary it is. Its good because its human pilots are good.
Optimus Prime, on the other hand, is an intelligent, independent war machine and a hero in his own right.
Secondly they are designed to face vastly different threats. They don't compete on a level playing field. All things being equal Optimus Prime would be overpowered unless he came up with a plan to hit the Jaeger in its weakspots.

Community ExecutiveMemberNoobJun-21-2013 12:45 AMmhh, I dont like the comparison, and the poor optimus prime deserve a rest after M. Bay has made a mess with him.
If you already saw the [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pn0MenBcz_s]"Jaegers: Mech Warriors" Featurette[/url]maybe you got influences by the description of del Toro about the machine movement on Gypsy Danger so I think I can see what do you mean.
btw I think I'm falling in love with del toro :P , I wasn´t so excited about a movie since long ago.
The world will spin well past our last breath, but I will always care about you
