    Someone in my theater yelled "Optimus is a fatass!" when this scene happened. How did ILM or whatever mess up this bad?

    Its a film so I didn't even pay attention to scale, but am I missing why this is bad?

    I thought Prime was quite slender especially for a Truck :eek:

    Perhaps a bad edit, as I don't recall Primes legs being so pointy. I also recall the same image being posted here before the movie was in theatres as a leaked image of Prime and Jetfire combo....

    He shook off the remaining booster but tons of other Jetfire parts are on him. Pay attention to the legs, stomach, left arm, etc, and notice the coloring.

    Now, I can get how some of the more casual fans/general audience wouldn't get it, but it should be clear for any of us here.

    Hint - if you're trying to compare it to the Jetfire/Prime toy combo, don't, the movie version was far more complicated. Compare to the keychain instead.

    I don't care if he still did have Jetfire attached to him, Prime looked fat in that scene.

    For fuck's sake, PUOP's engines were ripped off, and some of the armor was probably broken apart in battle.

    He still has parts of Jetfire on him.

    We all know there are Jetfire chunks on there.. he still looks like chubby prime in the pic. I don't think anyone is hating on the movie, just that pic makes him look fat!

    He looks exactly like he did the whole time he was PUOP.

    He looks "fat" because he still has some of Jetfire attached to him.

    I don't think anybody is inferring that. Instead, I think people are surprised at how unobservant Mushroom Prime is.
