It is weird, but if you look at it, it's very similar to the alt mode's cab for TF: Cybertron Optimus. Don't know if that was an intentional homage or no...

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.

Nope. Prime was the last show to get complete season sets, while Rescue Bots and RID 2015 only got random episodes on DVD.First-Aid wrote:Is there any word Cyberverse will be on Blu-ray or DVD?

Aren't the toy's feet just the car mode bumper?

The front of the leg flips open, the feet tuck in, and the leg folds back. The kneecap with the red dot is then under the vehicle, while the back of the leg is stylized as the vehicle's rear end.

But I enjoyed it the first go round in RiD’15 with the purple Decepticon jet jerks whose names I’ve forgotten so I’ll probably get both sets to swap them around and have the Dinobots combined. Speaking of, can anyone skilled in the art of Photoshop swap them around so we can have a better idea how they look together?

As can be seen highlighted, I was asking about the actual toy that was just revealed. Not Bee's animation design (nor the deluxe).
It seems that on that toy, the feet are made of the car bumper, hence the detail. They arent trying to be show accurate, and it isnt fake parts or fake sculpted detail but an actual part of the car.Mindmaster wrote:Sure, they’re a little crap.

Optimus having a face goes all the way back to the G2 Go-Bot toy, followed by the Machine Wars redeco of G1 Thunder Clash.ZeroWolf wrote:DeathReviews wrote:Seeing Optimus with a FACE isn't any less jarring now than it was with Transformers Animated.

The joke there was it wasn't even Transformers animated that gave him a proper face, you have the Cybertron cartoon to thank for that. Even then, it seems like an Optimus Primal design element that carried over, so perhaps you should just thank Beast Wars
