    Needs a flowing headband.

    I think the question should be, would OPtimus make an excellent Ninja, since Leonardo isn't a samurai.

    My answer would be, no. His feet are too big

    Yeah, needs TMNT stuff. XD Although the swords seem to fit nicely into his backpack cape thingie.

    He's a sewer samurai! http://tmnt-action-figures.blogspot....r-samurai.html

    I think Bludgeon would make a better Samurai. Out of the TF Prime toys, I'd stay with Wheeljack -- he's already very Drift^Samurai-like as it is.

    Tetchan: I think this Optimus Prime wouldn't be a good ninja because:
    #1: Optimus Prime is all noble and honourable and crap... ninjas sneak around in shadows and stab you in the back.
    #2: Aside from being red, he has those very bright light piping blues (with an LED light up weapon!). Not very stealthy. This!!

    ^Eh, probably not. I'm not an expert on japanese stuff. The only ones I know who dual wield are ninjas like Leonardo from TMNT.

    Not my fault someone left it there and filled with crap.

    And let's just say Mr. Bag wants to be in the same photo again.

    This time, it's a bad case of the Assassins!

    the swords fit remarkably well for scale.
    Not convinced about the samurai thing, maybe you could source one of those shattered glass soundwave headbands from this years botcon.

    I understood the first meaning.

    However, your second sentence... confused me. I don't have an SG Soundwave.
