If I remember correctly, Optimus is a shared exclusive between BBTS and Toys R Us. I don't think Amazon/HTS will be carrying it. I think I have that right...

I understand people being angry with what Manterax said, and the counterpoints given are very valid, that being said...this part of the conversation had died. There's no need to stir the pot days later "just because".

And I'll be fair... People shouldn't post things like that, provoking others. Believe me, I see the side of those countering the point. I'm just saying, once it's addressed, let it die. Or, better yet, ignore it. Posts like that just lead to trouble.

Believe me, I want you to have your chance to say your piece, I do, but you have to admit, posts like what started this whole thing have the chance to unravel and turn bad quick. Sometimes, it's better to ignore them and just let it slide. Rise above it. I know it's difficult, believe me.

That Starscream was terrible looking then, and it's still terrible looking now.

I thought they did a nice job of making him look like a G1 pre-Earth Starscream. He has all the Starcream visual cues, his face is good, his colors are good, he has the weapons on his arms, and his silhouette is undeniably Starscream, ad his alt mode is a triangular flying thing.

No Roller or Spike with this version of Prime? Booo. I was thinking this might be my chance to finally pick up a version of this mold, but if they've taken stuff out of it, what's the point?

Because Prime and his trailer are the main attraction while Roller and Spike are mere afterthoughts?

Well, I dunno about Roller... Spike, I can see being an afterthought, but not Roller.

It is a fact that 100% of the people who purchase Optimus Prime toys do so just to get Roller and they throw the Optimus Prime figure and trailer in the garbage once they've got Roller.

It is also a fact that the above statement is not a fact :P.

It would be more helpful to also include a link to the source instead of just posting pics without sources.
