Looks interesting and look forward to seeing the CGI model to compare.
I was wondering yesterday what TF news might come out of the NY comic con, and its already started.

Mmmmmmmm, what a delicious looking shell.
My wallet and display space are both very happy another movie is coming out, as it saves them both a lot of hassle. Especially if this is all we can expect (minus the chrome, extar detailed paint apps, size) from a Leader class figure. A very simple figure, which is good compared to previous movie toys, but sometimes things can be too simple.
I wholeheartedly agree, while I'll see the movie ( & probably enjoy it), I highly doubt I'll be buying any of this trashQuote:

hopefully some of the other figures from AoE look better than prime, that sword is pretty nice though
I didn't know another comic con was coming up, can we expect more transformers news over the next few days?
Terrible design - lately (with the exception of some Generations line), the new line of TFs have turned me off with their designs and transformations and this latest is even worse.
Optimus AOE seems to be carrying an awful lot of "truck-kibble" on his back - and as someone else has mentioned it looks like a "luge". This wasn't a problem on the previous movie series Leader-class Optimus.
Also the mustard-yellow sword and "key" also looks terrible.
All in all scrap these crappy toys and let's get back to some G1 goodness like the latest Generations Metroplex and add some paint apps to that instead.

Official pics out. Oh dear dat backpack....Kinda reminds of DotM Ultimate Prime. Maybe this can combine as well...
Suppose this is a rather faithful representation of the new movie Optimus design, then I already like it a lot. Dig the knight motif. And he will be the first Optimus since Armada to not have window chest (and people are STILL complaining about fake chest....)
One thing of note, this is part of the Generations line, which is supposedly geared towards collectors. So no line-wide gimmick and I'm surprised to see chrome. But after they gave us so many great figures in Generations this feels like a major step back, engineering wise.
Generations line? :confused: :confused:
I think I will wait before I form an opinion... On the other hand, I don't like the bot mode, that backpack is awful. The vehicle looks awesome.
This interests me in no way whatsoever (I may have threw up in my mouth a little looking at that backpack), and that's coming from an extensive collector of movie toys over the last decade. BUT, it looks like something a kid could play with and transform without too much help, and that's really more important than servicing the older fanboys.
Im digging the sword as well, just hope it aint yellow in the final productQuote:
