i dont understand all the hoopla about optimus prime wasnt he pretty savage in the 86 animated movie running over and killing quite a few deepticon before the fight with megatron??
btw
i loved the movie and thought it was awesome, was initially shocked at how ineffective devastator was but some1 pointed out to me that he achieved his purpose in the movie and that was to reveal the machine and i am not really a religious person but you could always take in the lesson of david and Goliath as david took out Goliath, with a rail gun.
