They should be BLUE to be G1 accurate, Takara. You know this stuff!
Umm, this isn't G1 Prime. This is AoE Prime. Different character.
And even if it was G1 Prime, who honestly cares? It's a tiny detail, and if you ask me it's about time Prime got a little reinvention.
Oh, I know that full well. The mold, however, is very clearly meant to homage G1 Optimus Prime. Although a flatnosed truck version of Prime exists in the movie, it's all rusted out and colored with dull browns and grays. So, none of the toy releases of this mold are even close to "screen accurate." Hasbro rolled with the G1 homage pretty well, but made a few mistakes and omitted some paint apps. Takara added in some nice paint apps, but switched some colors around, managing to pull the homage away from G1. In exchange, they seem to be trying to homage original movie-verse prime a bit. I'm just saying, there's no win for someone who wanted a spot on G1 deco on this Prime, though it's obvious that's what Hasbro tried.

On the leader mold at least you can tuck the elf toes under. No cure for the terrible T-rex chest though.

Oh....and Dispensor. I like him as well. Not gonna buy it though.

Just get a paintbrush and dot them in yourself. It would literally take, what, 5 seconds?
