It's a spoiler because up until we weren't sure Prime would appear this way in the show. Up until now all it's been all about the toys, and as we know just because a toy gets produced doesn't mean in will make it to the show. I highly doubt the rest of the cast will get their Beast Hunter upgrades in the show.
Well, we saw a rendering on Prime's packaging, and we saw basically this image on the Hub's invitation to the red carpet premiere.
Not to mention, Optimus's new design has been more consistent between the toys. The Commander one looks like the Voyager one looks like the Kre-O one, while pretty much everybody else has a different design for each subline. And they went to the effort of making a completely new mold, while everybody else who's not getting a new body in-show is just a retool of their RID toy. I think it was a foregone conclusion that Optimus would actually look like this in the show.
