I'm glad the 3mm pegs are here to stay, hopefully Fire Blasts or something similar will remain in the $6 line. Looks like battle damage is going away, so I'll have to decide if I want to scrub it off of my Siege Autobots.
Me last year: I love this Optimus, the Cybertronian mode is close enough to G1 Earth mode that it works!
Me today: You're going right in the trash

Damnit, Hasbro! Optimus Prime's eyes are BLUE! You're willing to give Grapple his cartoon accurate yellow head, but deny Prime his blue eyes? No one cares about toy accurate yellow eyes on G1 Prime! Save that for the Unicron Trilogy versions of Optimus Prime!
Otherwise, these look freakin' AMAZING! Optimus Prime is practically a Masterpiece figure at the Generations scale and price!

They're saving the blue eyes for the Generation Selects release where they also give him the wrong colored matrix so you have to buy both

You'd be surprised how many fans genuinely prefer the toy-accurate color contrast of "yellow eyes and blue helmet" over the cartoon's more redundant "blue eyes and blue helmet".Wolfman Jake wrote:No one cares about toy accurate yellow eyes on G1 Prime!

These looks good, but I think I'll stick with my gut and just get the Earth Mode Seekers (I'm just gonna assume they'll make all six). I still really like my old Classics Prime and Grapple just got tossed into a storage bin since I have no room. If they make him Hauler one day then I may go for that. But that Prime is great.
I wonder if this means Earth Mode Ironhide and Ratchet? Those guys could stand replacing and Cybertronian modes won't cut it for me.

And we go the new title too, so let the split off begin:
First look at Transformers Generations: War for Cybertron Earthrise! on IGN.com
Previews of:
- Leader Class Optimus Prime
- Hot Rod Patrol Big Daddy and Trip-Up (new molds, not retools of the Car Patrols)
- Ironworks (the replacement for Weaponizers: Micromaster Bases!)
- Grapple
Set to debut at NYCC 2019!
:EDIT: split already has been made, kudos to Bounti76!

The resident Rewind... well, half of one

Looking for:
- TR Furos (Hardhead's head) and Crashbash (lost him
)
- PotP Punch head
- TR Galvatron right arm (the gun one)
- CW Brake-Neck/UW Wildrider, CW Offroad
- TR Twinferno & Grotusque
- Greenlight, Lancer and PotP Elita-1
- Legacy Core Slug, Sludge & Snarl

Nope
because Siege Optimus looked bad from the start and so was Siege megs tank mode. Moneys saved on not getting the cell shadeds so it's all good for me.

And some people just want to watch the world burn. There's no accounting for taste, my friend. Here's hoping Earthrise Optimus Prime is a retool of Siege Optimus Prime, so I can just swap the heads.
