It's a bird! It's a plane! No, it's Superman!

Jokes and similarities aside, The-Arker shows us images of Animated Activators Armor Up Optimus Prime, playing a heavy homage to Generation One Star Convoy. We get a look at Armor Up Optimus Prime's package, and his biography, which reads as:

In preparation for a massed attack on the Decepticons, Optimus Prime orders his autobots to upgrade their armor. Working with Autobot Ratchet, he mounts improved armor plating on his frame, giving him the toughness he needs to withstand even the most powerful fusion blast.

Looking pretty good. I wish there was more of the steel blue color besides the head.

Maybe the "Armor Up" part is in the paint job? Energy resistant coating or something...

I kinda see where it's supposed to be a tribute to the old G1 Star Convoy, but I don't really see how it's "armored". It just looks like the same old Animated Prime with different colors, and a battle mask.
