    If this Optimus has a power up like Armada Prime with his trailer I'd be down with this take.

    This is my ideal height difference between Optimus and Megatron. 76951672-11E0-4F01-AB5A-4F714E549DD0.jpeg

    This picture from YoloPark shows Megatron three heads larger than Optimus. If they were to fight with their axes and swords, I guess Prime will move faster than Meg?

    It could be just like the size difference between Optimus and Grindor fighting, but unlike Grindor, Megatron would survive the attacks.

    Maybe something like this to use as a comparison? Megatron doesn't seem to be wider than Optimus. Actually looks like they have the same width.

    Maybe. The only real difference is in height, though, so you might be onto something.

    That size difference works for Orion Pax but not Optimus Prime.

    No he's a shrimp now. He doesn't even scale with his vehicle mode. Sure he should probably be smaller than bayverse OP, but 16ft is tiny for a truckformer. I'd say for a flat nose truck he should be around 24ft. Not as big as bayverse OP but not as tiny as bayverse bee.

    16ft Optimus is too short. I prefer a height of 20ft or more; similar to G1.

    Side note: Optimus was very elegant when he was fighting on Cybertron. I wonder if leg extensions or thicker boots will give him even more elegance in his fights.

    Megatron is a thicc, poet Gladiator who spent all of his time working those servo-motors and maintaining his armor while he recited sonnets that made Empurata victims cry.

    ....Optimus is but a wee manlet librarian who embraced the status quo until someone else told him not to, and spent all his time in a data-cubicle.

    Orion Pax 16ft. Megatron 20ft. Orion grows 4ft when he becomes Optimus. Bam.

    Really Prime at 20ft is too small. He's fine on his own but when pitted proportionally with everyone else that's when scale goes to shit. I'd like a smaller Prime but 8ft shorter is too much.

    I think he should be 24ft max, no smaller than that. That way the Cons can be 22ft and Ratchet and Ironhide can be 20ft. Roughly identical to how it panned out in the movies, only this time Prime is smaller and more personal to get to.

    Megatron can be 24ft tall too. If not 28ft tall if we want him big like in the films.
