Heads look so similar I don't see the point in doing a new mold...

A little paint goes a long way to make those side antennae really stand out.

Not loving that head. Not at all.

What else is new? Great looking design, small little head... Reason why I didn't renew my membership this year.

I don't think the head is small, necessarily - just not a great fit for Nova. Leo Prime is fine, IMO.

I liked these, but not enough to bother renewing this year.
Their server had my CC info all screwed up ... AGAIN, and I decided I was done dealing with these clowns.
If there are any figs I REALLY want, I'll pay the two-bits to get them through BBTS or at a convention.

Wow. I had a lot of worries about these two looking "samey", but wow. Side by side, they look REALLY different. Nice cost-effective way to reuse a mold and head sculpt to deliver two good figures to two different fan groups.

Nova looks pretty good. Between him and Lio Convoy, I kinda regret not resubbing. One free figure isn't worth the subscription to me. I guess I will have to watch eBay for Lio Convoy. I kinda want to see what Orion Pax would look like in Optimal Optimus colors.

Obviously. Similar to Pax
I would LOVE to see that!

Do want, even if the paint on the head doesn't quite line up.
Will probably put it on my Legends shelf. That scale pairing is about right... right?

I have the Orion figure myself but I don't think it goes well with the legends size.
Not due to the size of the mold it just looks to bulky (for lack of better word) compared to legends Bee or Tailgate.

I don't want to hate this, but you're making it so difficult not to. The head doesn't fit for the lineage of nova prime, it's poorly painted, granted that could be because it's a stolen Chinese test shot. It amazingly looks like a monochrome lio convoy, oh and did I mention the head looks terrible, both forthe chcharacter, and in regards to sculpt.

Squished, yes. Small, no. It's not as if he head were miniaturized, a la Protoform X.

The head looks like a badly made Shapeways plastic model.
