So basically, Optimus (and presumably Motormaster) can combine with literally any Transformer? That's awesome.

Well I am Australian. It's kinda what we're known for.

That crossed my mind too. It was Windcharger's magnetic powers that allowed the combination in the first place, so making him part of the torso just makes sense if you want to recreate/reimagine "The Masquerade." Maybe then Offroad could be repainted/remolded into Ironhide?
Wolfman Jake wrote:Also, I think the conjecture that CW Optimus Prime was remolded from Motormaster is a little off base. It's much more likely they were simply developed concurrently, like Universe 2008 Sunstreaker and Sideswipe. Sideswipe is not a retool of Sunstreaker, nor does it go the other way around. The mold was always designed to be both of them, just using alternate heads and a waste rotation during Transformation (plus switching the fists during assembly) to achieve the different looks. Too much of CW Optimus Prime looks like Optimus Prime, and too much of Motormaster looks like a concession of sharing a mold with Prime compared to his G1 representation, to make me think they started with Motormaster. The intent was always a two-for-one deal with that mold, I'd say.

Dammit, I was all content just getting Bombshell, but now I *HAVE* to buy Optimus too...
Mindmaster wrote:An Energon homage?
I guess I'm obligated to get this guy now, huh?
I will say, these images make him look LOADS better. Still not digging a lot of the robot mode, but the combined mode is kickass, especially that combined mode's head sculpt!

If you mean Onslaught, the third and fourth team have yet to be announced/or confirmed, so they could be anyone.
