I'm glad they threw in the "subject to availability" part.
Of course, nothing has been more "subject to availability" as the Prime RID deluxes!

Actually Metroplex was a bit more complex than this thing is not to mention he was a solid figure & not hollow like this. When Metroplex transformed he actually looked like something unlike prime here who dose just look like hes sitting down with no head and a flat chest.

True. Metroplex had many more steps to transform him from robot to a rolling battle station - the "city mode" was just a bonus (but it did tried to look like a city). This Optimus barely looks like a robot, much less a "battle station". The simplicity of its transformation is almost as bad as something you get from a happy meal toy.

True, but following that train of thought, why didn't they always just make lazy, crappy offerings like this since this is all it takes to impress the target audience? Why'd we have to go from stuff that adult collectors could actually appreciate to THIS after so many years?
