    It certainly seems like they are, you make a very good point sir.

    Optimus does look awesome, though I agree with Tetsuwan Convoy as some light piping certainly wouldn't of gone astray.

    Optimus looks like a more sleeker cybertronian version of his G1 self. I kind of dont like how his slim sexy abs are ruined by the stuff stick out behind his back. The front wheels also stick out when they're supposed to be closer to the neck.

    I also don't like the rifle, looks kinda weak.

    The alt mode feels like its missing windows. Maybe its just the red colour they used which kind of kills it for me.

    I just had a look at the trailer again, and the toy is definately missing detail which gives Optimus the Heavier feeling. Those colours make him look like he's from the animated series.

    For me, I'm hoping for a more 'game accurate' design being war-torn and battle hardened.

    Like in the TF:Movie when Optimus comes to save everyone, he just smashes his way through the Decepticons and heads straight for Megatron.

    This toy looks like it would bump into something, stop and say 'owwie'

    I wonder what TakaraTomy will do with the toy line?

    You know what would be great... a WFC Omega Supreme I reckon Hasbro owes us for cheapening-out on an Animated version.

    The likelyhood is slim, but would be super awesome. The size of Unicron would be good

    In the Metal-verse you mean?

    I didn't say it won't happen, I just said the chances were slim

    Looks very sharp. A definate purchase (well, at this stage all of Generations is a definate purchase)

    I love the look of this mold. It is definitely going to be a must have for me.
    There's only two things that bug me with it. The head sculpt looks a little weird for Optimus, almost like Optimus prime mixed with a evil robotic bat. I think its the nose bump and the longer ears/antennas that's putting me off.
    And is it just me or does he have pink on his hips, knee guards and around the outer rims of the wheels. If it is, that's another point against him although that could just be the lighting of the photos.
    But like I said, even with those two minor problem he is a definite purchase for me on release.
    Soundwave superior. All others inferior!
