They did make a warrior class version of the Optimus:



AND DAMN I would have really liked to know these were coming out in advance so I could better plan my purchases. As it stands I already have all these takara molds and have no use for double dipping

1) Is there supposed to be a gap between the trailer and cab? The pictures on the packaging and instructions say no but there's no way to close it up.

2) Does the truck drag on the ground? It seems like the shoulders sit a little too low.

Is this mold a good mold for an IDW ESQUE Drift, or too blocky? Is this a better Drift in your opinion than say the Generations Drift for posability, play value and general looks? And does the asthetic stand out too muchcompared to the myriad of Generations styles between CW and going back to some of the early Classics or is this Best Drift Ever? Cause I like it but i dont know if I need another Drift and I sont pkan to get the Rid Figg cause I am just not that attached to him

I find it works to mimic samurai armour with lots of padding at the shoulders and hips. Bu I totally get what you mean and it boggles my mind that they used the same kibble heavy generations mold for generations blurr who has no excuse to look cumbersome.

I dont have him with me right now so I dont know about number 2 (haha) but I know for sure that there is a gap because I myself thought the same thing. I realized that the pictures angle it so that it seems there is no gap when indeed there is. Maybe this image will help.
