    Yea not feeling to happy about Optimus being a damn T-Rex in Rescue Bots season 3. Optimus is a Truck not T-Rex! Primal does not count since he is another character so don't use him as an example. So far I have not seen too much complaining about this. So ill get the fanboy bitching started. THIS IS INCREDIBLY STUPID! He is not a dinosaur plus this cheating with the transformation way too much. How come he has a T-rex mode and what happened to it in when the Prime show events are happening.

    My vote is THIS IS THE WROST THING EVER #ruinedforever

    MUNKY NOT DIENO!

    Ah, the sweet smell of RUINED FOREVER!

    All joking aside, I like this form for Prime as it really does look like a cybernetic T Rex.

    If only Hasbro had a staff paleontologist advisor, as the form uses the old perception of tyrannosauridae gait and motion. It should be "Giant raptor" instead of "Brutish dinosaur".

    I'm indifferent, as it doesn't bother me much at all. And season 3 hasn't even started yet so we don't know the story behind it yet.

    And Nemesis, you certainly called it ha!

    I could care less. The show is focused on entertaining 3 year olds and they like dinosaurs.

    TRUKK NOT T-REKZ!
    HELICOPTR NOT TERASOOOR!
    BULLDOZR NOT TRICEEROTPZ!
    POLEES KAR NOT STEGOZARUS!

    If this genuinely upsets people then I'm all for it. I mean, why the hell not? Kids love dinosaurs. It's not like Optimus is becoming a T-Rex across all versions of Transformers, but now I wish he was.

    Keep it civil, everyone has opinions, likes and dislikes, just don't add fuel to flames.

    Until the season 3 airs, we don't know if it's a dream, a one episode plot, etc.

    Instead of 'THIS IS THE WROST THING EVER #ruinedforever'

    why not just have 'JUMPED THE SHARKTICON!!!'

    And it isn't Optimus Prime...but Optimus Primal (even though they are separate characters).

    I was about to ask why Heatwave is a Dinosaur...... Guess I'll have to wait for Season 3 to find out.

    He's been a potato, a Nike trainer, a Pepsi sponsor, an iPod speaker, an Angry bird, a Playstation 1, and a friend to a small anime girl... honestly the T-rex is the least crazy.

    Optimus Prime is a very versatile guy. If he wants to be a dinosaur he can be a dinosaur.

    No, Optimus is a:

    Gorilla
    Bat
    Fire Truck
    Dodge Ram
    Locomotive
    Space Truck
    Battle Station
    Lamborghini Diablo
    Shoe
    Pen
    PlayStation
    A-01 Nissan GT-R

    Sure, Optimus has been a truck more than a few times, but that's not all he is. Only people who can't let go of the past and want to see the same idea rehashed an infinite number of times want to see him continue to be a truck.

    Change is good.

    I actually want to watch Rescue Bots now, so I definitely like it.

    The toy is badass. Or as badass as a toy for 5 year olds can be. So, slightly more badass than the first RB Optimus figure.
