    How long has PRID Optimus Prime's sword looked like the Star Saber?

    PRID Prime with Sword

    Star Saber

    Is it just me? Did everyone else know this and I was out of the loop?

    I was close to laughing this off, then I looked at the pictures. It actually does have some similarities. I may have to slap some paint on and see how it looks.

    It's more like the Star Dagger. :lol 

    Megatron: "You cannot hope to defeat me with my Dark Star Saber!"
    Optimus: "Yes I can, because I rebuilt what was left of the Star Saber!"
    *Star Dagger*
    Megatron: "...you've GOT to be joking.

    That's fitting. The star saber ended up being a big let down anyway.

    If the Star Saber was like the Sword of Omens, and had a dagger form, then that would work. As things are though, it really doesn't.

    My friend brought this up to me when the first episode with it aired. I'm sure that's what it's supposed to be, even though the designs are a little bit different. The cg model probably changed after the toy was finalized.

    I posted this in the Hidden Features thread right after the first episode it was in aired. No one said anything about it last I checked.
