"tats" on Warpath? What about Powerglide? There were some features dropped? Maybe a new thread so as not to deviate even further?

Tats = short for tattoos
There are no features I know of that where dropped from Powerglide, however he has an easter egg, a heart which is easily accessible.

That is an easter egg, it's something you're meant to find.
Btw, what was the source that mentioned about the face plate feature being dropped? One of those Generations mooks? May I know which volume so i can also hunt that down?

There is no source, I said that it was likely to be removable but was dropped down the line. It's a bit of a logical conclusion seeing how it would need to be removable to be able to see the teeth.
"Teeth"? Prime had teeth? In the source pic being referenced afew posts above, from my perspective, if that IS the source material that inspired the feature, those look like speaker grills.

Look at that MP Optimus Prime again, those are teeth. Not a speaker grill, but teeth.
The speaker grill is from an old Marvel comic, where Power Master Optimus Prime got super badly damaged, that's what you see in the panel that was posted above.
Truth is, nobody knows what the teeth are supposed to reference, some believe it's supposed to be that Marvel Comic, but that's kinda unlikely since that shows a speaker and not teeth.
The teeth MP Prime has also look really organic.
So it might have been something a designer wanted to include thinking that Prime has a skull inside of his head, but was later told that that's not the case.
All we know is, that it's the remnants of a dropped feature, and we know it's dropped and not supposed to be an actual feature, because it's not really finished (no paint, no sculpting around it), not advertised, not talked about by anyone from HasTak, and indeed in order to get to it you need to actually break the figure.

It is not a feature nor is it an easter egg.

Oh the heart thingie. I remember that in the old show. Tattoo on Warpath? Golly, you get to learn new trivia everyday. Thanks DM.

So the teeth/grill is still up in the air as to where it came from. Hopefully not like Blugdeon..........spooky.
