    Haha I know what you mean Primal :) 

    I like Animated Rescue Ratchet for instance. It said Rescue Ratchet on the box and I took it quite literally and rescued the poor fellow =D

    But still... This one is ugly but it's growing on me too...

    I dunno. He has an impressive amount of detail, but I'm on the fence about the colors.

    Hmm. I think I wish the red was some other color. Probably white, so he'd match EG Prowl.

    I'd like a closer picture of the face, because I'm not quite sure what's going on with his cheeks.

    But with those gold stripes on the shoulders, it's like his whole upper body is an Elite Guard symbol. That's pretty darned cool!

    I'm still in. :thumb

    Description says this is what Optimus will be like if he chooses to become an Elite Guard.
    Yellow stripes are actually gold in color.

    Didn't say anything about exclusive Wing Blade.

    EDIT:
    The book cover is a shopped cover. Final product may be different.
    Also kids in Japan (should) have no knowledge about the future release of the TFA toyline. Including Wing Blade on the book cover will be a perfect way to grab their attention.

    I think it would have been kind of cool if they did a G1 Ultra Magnus homage. With being white, having a blue faceplate, ect.

    I wonder if a repainted Wingblade Prime would have looked better than this? I'm glad this is one TFA figure I don't have to track down...
