TR Prime, though we don't have confirmation of this figure I'm aware of, is obviously from a Tankor/Octane mold.
I call it out because I find it odd. Prime has always gotten his own molds, with lesser figures handling the redeco requirements. Is this because as a figure guaranteed to sell, Prime is being used to get more use out of other character molds?

Never mind that; I wonder why the heck HasTak never made a Voyager of Optimus' original design; his G1 cartoon/comics model. Designs don't come much more iconic than that and they relegated it to a deluxe with a bizarre helicopter waist gimmick?

The voyager classics Prime was intended to be that iconic G1 animated look.
Overcracker wrote:Hmm no, as with all classics figures it was designed to be an updated version of the G1 character and animation design.
It's just a slightly different flat nose truck.
But it has always been intended to be an update to G1. That was the point of Classics at that time.
If what you wanted was a voyager sized G1 prime with articulation, then that's a different thing altogether.
Even the Deluxe Prime deviates from the G1 prime design in the head and legs.
