I was thinking the same way... I vaguely remember a chamber in Beast Wars but couldn't think of anything like that in G1. Optimus and co always seemed to be on a slab of some sort with Ratchet over them... which is why of all the quotes Optimus says, this one seems like the odd one out.
I don't read the comics so I wasn't sure if there was a reference in there...
I don't know if any of you have heard the sound bites from Ultimetal but Peter Cullen does a fabulous job with them. Optimus SOUNDS drained when he comments about the CR chamber.

Your Husband is a legend by the way, a whole ultimetal optimus prime as a gift. I hope you have somewhere suitable to display and appreciate the awesomeness.
Yeah - my husband is AWESOME. He's the reason I got into collecting Optimus (and he probably regrets it a bit now). He's very tolerant of my obsession (and that of my kids) despite being a Gundam guy himself.
I do have somewhere for Ultimetal to sit but at the moment I'm undecided how best to display him - whether to get a custom perspex housing made for him, etc. Anyways, probably best to discuss Ultimetal elsewhere... I'm happy to post pics/video of him if people are curious. Just point me to the best place to start a thread.
