I'm not really digging the new Optimus Prime look.

Did you see this?
I've got to admit, I too like the description of a Fist with Wheels. :D
(Mazinger Prime anyone? :o)

Yeah I did. I prefer the WFC design.

Ah ok, I dunno - I've just got a thing for big/bulky Robots... Stupid Japanese giant mecha contamination. :p

Yeah I can completely understand the marketing behind the design and why fans would like it... just not my cup of tea.

it does seem to be more of an evolution, "over the time of the war, Prime has gradually upgraded to handle situations that he previously would have struggled with. "

that's my 2c, still won't really care unless it's released to PC.

Wow, so much debate over Grimlock. I think it would be cool to have him as a beast mode. It could well be since he didn't faeture in the main game, that he was off-world at the time, scanned the beast mode COZ IT ROOLZ and stuck with it. So many possibilities, I find people who think it's out of place strange when we are talking about large, shape shifting, living robots.:p:D

Me neither. Looks too chunky in the legs for a start and something else bothers me as well, but I don't know exactly what it is.. I think its the big arms, and smallish chest. The proportions look askew.

Oh well, guess I'll stick with Grimlock!!:D

That'd be neat. :)

Actually I thought the animation in Beast Machines was great (a lot better than Beast Wars). The story on the other hand... :p ;)

Yeah, that's why I said "or any other place which may have similar life forms" <---which could include the lower depths of Cybertron which may have Transorganics or cybernetic demons or fossilised organics there... take your pick. :) So long as they provide a feasible explanation, I'll be content.

I don't mind the look of Prime's new character model but I do have a preference for the original WFC one.

Me neither. It is mostly due to the BIG RED PLAIN PANNEL in middle of his chest (I prefer window looking bits).

I also hope they tone down all the part movements while he is idle, right now he looks twitchy like he can't stand still or relaxed.
