Classifying Weaponizer Prime and Optimus Maximus.

Weapon: Twin Concussion Blasters
So I saw 3 each of Weaponizer Optimus and Optimus Maximus on the shelf at my Walmart this morning. I was surprised by how big they were, especially Weaponizer. I didn't read up much other either of these, but I figured Weaponizer would be Voyager class, but he's leader-sized. Is that how he is classified? I don't recall reading on the box. What about Optimus Maximus? He seems big enough to be Supreme Class, but it's not an actual figure until the Cyberverse Prime is inserted. So what do we call these 2 pieces?

And BTW, I was impressed by Weaponizer as well, looked really good. Might have to pick him up, though I swore off buying any more large figures. Will there be a Weaponizer Megatron?

Motto: "The only good is knowledge, and the only evil is ignorance."
For the record, these are the names that were used for internal referring:

Deluxe Class = Revealer
Voyager Class = Powerizer

Weaponizers are in a Class of their own, not quite Leader Class-sized. Optimus Maximus and Bumblebee Battle Suit are stand-alone figures/play sets.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

I think I'll be getting Prime. He doesn't look too bad, and his weapon's a fair bit better than the Voyager prime's... chunk.
Not caring about scale since 1984. Just like Hasbro.

I'm gonna wait for the Arms Master version, with the Matrix that transforms into a Matrix Saber (with the help of R.A.).

I mostly classified them as Passy McPass and Passter Van Passburg. I was under the impression that the Weaponizers were sort of a replacement for Leader class though.

Ultra has been phased out since Universe 2008, and now it seems it's Leader's turn. Now that I think about it, they're properly named as "Weaponizer", so in a sense they're similar to Ultimates.
