Most Movieverse Optimus Primes had gray feet. TF: RID (2001) Optimus Prime had black feet. Armada Optimus Prime had gray feet (Robot Mode) an black feet (Super Mode). Energon Optimus Prime had dark gray feet. Cybertron Optimus Prime had black feet. A varaint of G1 Optimus Prime had red feet. Star Convoy had black feet. G2 Hero Optimus Prime had white feet. G2 Go-Bot Optimus Prime had yellow feet. Sports Label had white and red Nike feet. SG Optimus Prime had dark purple-gray feet.

Yeah but now your just splitting hairs!

JK...so those variations worked for those Prime's, point. And as you stated most of those are any color but black, but IMO they don't work for these and it doesn't improve from the fact that this Weaponizer version totally blows! I'd rather buy a Takara FE at current prices than one of these. :VEHI:

It obviously has a huge backpack, but otherwise it looks pretty good. Better than Powerizer Prime. I won't be getting it though because I already have FE Prime, who's in scale and is more accurate.

Hmmm... How do I say this politely?

Huge backpack, wimpy shoulders, like an upscaled DOTM Deluxe Optimus

Pretty much the only time when the term "munky not truk" can actually be used.

Um I like the hands? And this is a pretty good Photoshop job when compared to the previous Prime stock images?

But the toy itself is actually pretty ugly.

These transform, yes? If so, this is the way to go. No ugly blue plastic and mechtech powerizer weapons for me.

Mechtech is 100% the reason I didn't buy an ounce of the main DOTM line.

That clinches it: First Edition rules! This is just a box on legs.

The way these reveals have been going, I'd put good money on us getting our first decent look at Optimus Maximus (or whatever he's called) tomorrow.

>_< And that's exactly what I'm talking about. That's horrid. I get simplifying them for kids, I do, but kids aren't stupid. Especially THAT stupid.

If I were a parent, I'd be offended. Seriously.
