So I was just messing around to see if I could get Jetfire's armor on my PotP OP and lo and behold, it fit!

The best Optimus Prime wearing the best Jetfire armor!

He looks badass

The feet hold the top of the jetpack

Jet fire's clips line up perfectly with Orion Pax's kneecaps

I love the metallic red

A better backpack is a jetpack

If only they'd make a G1 gun (non-masterpiece) Megatron with the passion they made this OP with :-?

Not bad. He can definitely use more red, with all that gray on him. I wish those gray parts were red instead, it wouldn't have messed up the trailer any more than it already was. The gray just doesn't seem right on Optimus in bot mode. Even the previously released Powermaster figures only had the gray mainly on the back and the legs, nothing on the front or the arms.

Okay, that's pretty cool, and gives the "Evolution" robot mode of this guy purpose beyond re-enacting "Birth of the Fantastic Double Prime" with the corresponding Roddy.

No gray on the front or the arms?
Really?
:BANG_HEAD:

Wrong wrong wrong wrong!
Wrong wrong wrong wrong!
You're wrong! You're wrong! You're wrong!

Have a look at that! Gray on the tops and backs of the shoulders, gray on the inside and underside of the forearms, a bit of gray in the torso...

Your saying he had no gray on his front or arms was so incorrect it made my eye twitch.

And yes, the PotP figure does have a lot of gray on the arms for something trying to look like G1 Optimus' robot mode, but sometimes that's how the mold layout and paint apps budget cookies crumble. Kinda like Cybertron Defense Scattorshot's ocher head.
