Both can also use Double Targetmaster Nebulans.
Armada deluxe Optimus Prime can too.

I hope you're underestimating most people.
Also looking for Universe Repugnus and Overbite, Frostbite and Longhorn and any Webdiver toys.

Unicron didn't have them, but you can make him flip people off, so it's a worthwhile trade!

Yes, but he also has thirty minicon ports.

It's the truth though, if you're disagreeing. Most Beast Wars, Machine Wars, Beast Machines, and RiD figures did not have 5mm holes. While the majority of Armada figures had them. Aside from oddities like Sideways and Tidal Wave, the only Armada figures that didn't have 5mm fist holes were the Beast Wars repaints. Not including Minicon ports, of course.
Lets put it this way then. 5mm pegs and holes have been around since G1. Yes G1 Prime had them and various other figures did too. But in a line as wide as G1 there were many that didn't have them.
The were standardized in Armada to be a line wide feature as much as possible.
For the record, the Minicon Ports and pegs are actually 5mm except they have the pin/hole in the middle.

Which is exactly why Armada made them standard, they tied into the Minicon thing. There are lots of random examples of 5mm pegs and holes in previous lines aside from the obvious. 5mm screw holes are fairly commmon in the early line and some older figures actually have hollow 5mm pegs for no apparent reason other than they do.
