I thought the very same thing regarding that fist.

Not before mid summer 2021

How is that trailer not an earth mode trailer? It looks like the scaffolding of real trailers, more so than the G1 toy did (which, like all movie vehicle modes, wasn't based on anything real)

I too wish they changed it, it's a pretty big flaw, I wonder why no one would think twice about it during production.

Speaking of which, the gallery I spent most time on when I was younger was the Optimal Optimus gallery. I wanted to make sure I had all the modes right.
As for these reveals here are my thoughts:
Huffer is the stand out and I don't even know the character that well. He just looks great in both modes and has the functionality that fans care about.
I don't get the excitement for the core class figures revealed here. That Megatron is an eye sore in both modes with some really bad kibble (compared to the artwork, it's pretty laughable). What makes the least sense to me is how they already achieved a decent Megatron of that same size class before. Same goes with Starscream.
I was excited for Ractonite but his hands leave me really dissapointed.
Really like Airrazor and I will buy Dinobot regardless, he has his pros and cons.
