Okay, that looks cool. If I'm going to get a figure with that mold, it may just be this guy.

It looks like the face switches in the same sort of way Generations Blitzwing's face does. Or more like the top of the helmet opens, allowing for the masked face to be switched with the unmasked face.

I was thinking about just skipping the leader Optimus figure, but I might want to save money for this guy!

I don't know what you guys are complaining about; Rusty Optimus Prime is awesome. I have him and he looks cool on display.

This is awesome! This is really what we should have gotten in the very beginning. It probably won't fix many of the mold's real functional issues, but at least it's nice eye candy.

Now I just need someone to tell me how far this is going to put me back, so I can start saving up...

If only I wasnt suckered at buying the regular AoE leader OP at 60$+tx at my local TrU, I would consider buying this new one. However, the regular still feel plenty "premium" for me and I wont be spendiong 100$+ on a new leader.

Looks great but I've learned to reserve judgement until I see in hand pictures. The dreaded promo pic has gotten me too many times. :lol:
