Ah thank Primus! Hot Ro-, er I mean uh 'Rodimus' was really starting to look like scrap compared to all the other classics on my shelf.
With this he'll finally have the pose-ability to get out of that permanent constipated look he has.
The way they fixed his ugly gun kinda made me laugh.

Movie - "This is the end of the road, Galvatron!"
Season 3 - "Why did I have to be the chosen one?"
Ya know a good reason behind that could because, well a good portion fandom absolutely hated him.
It was his fault that Optimus prime died after all, or at least it would seem that way to the kiddies.
So they decided to make him look like an idiot after that, getting worse and worse up until Primes eventual revival. Which was the point where they made him look like the biggest moron ever.
"Ultra Magnus, we have to retrieve Optimus's body! Put him where he can rest in peace!"
"But that's what my father wants you to do! It's a trap!"
"I don't care..."
Of course, they also made Galvatron into a nut case by dipping him in plasma for some reason...
