    I don't like the Siege Megatron mold myself. So I don't want this to be true, but they engineered him to look just like G1 Megatron. Honestly I think he deserves a better mold, but he will probably be repainted for Studio Series and come with has laserblade, drop gun and miniature gun alt mode for Starscream to carry.

    I am yawning so hard at all the redoes of redoes of 84 characters who had new toys just a couple of years ago, but I wouldn't mind a better G1 style chug Megatron and Optimus. There is a lot about the Siege and Earthrise toys they could have done better.
    Hopefully we get a new Crosshairs, Astrotrain, and Quake while they're at it. A new Battletrap would be welcome too.

    See, I find this POV to be absolutely insane. I can sort of see how they might make a better Megatron somehow, but Siege and ER Optimus are both thoroughly perfect in their own ways, and I don’t think they will ever be beaten.

    Sigh. I'll ignore the insulting language. But I think if you are being honest you will see that there are numerous ways to improve on Siege Megatron and ER Optimus. There are upgrade kits in circulation to do just that.
    If this is what Hasbro can currently do for Optimus at leader class I can see them doing the definite chug G1 Optimus without buttwheels and blue shoulder and elbow hinges, but with a properly detailed trailer with Roller and the works at Commander class. And with the way people keep buying Optimus toys you can't tell me Hasbro won't do it or fans won't buy it.

    Oh awesome, a bunch of little plastic bits that I have to put in and take out. Just what I want.

    I am being honest. I don’t believe that it is possible to improve Earthrise Prime. Or maybe I’m easier to please than some.

    There's lots that could be improved. They could hide the wheels like they did on siege mold, they could make the chest less protruding to give him a sleeker silhouette, the crotch area could look better, they could give him cartoon colors instead of Grey parts.

    Eh, I love Siege Megs but didn’t care much for Siege Prime. I mean, it’s a good figure overall, but as a G1 Prime it lacks a bit of 'substance' compared to the Classics one (and all the great Primes from that decade really). And that face sculpt doesn’t do it for me; can’t put my finger on what it is (perhaps it’s too subdued). And since the ER Prime uses the same head - on top of looking a tad blocky and having a joke of a trailer - I have a hard time getting excited for that mold.

    Henkei Convoy still reigns supreme in my house; especially when paired with the G3 trailer.

    Eh,both of them look bad honestly, especially compared to what 3P does with Legends figures. With the way the fudging the class ranges hopefully we can get a Optimus and Megatron that actually look somewhat toon accurate.
