    Really wish this guy was a little smaller. I just can't do it buying into all these over-oversized movie MPs

    TBH, I think it might have to do with the fact that this new design needs to be flexible, and a grill as the entire ab section isn't exactly flexible...

    Though, you could make the grill with a hing.

    I meant movie wise. Like a grill that has to bend or turn into 15 different segments to become flexible was probably a worse solution than simply having normal robot abs, so that’s probably why it’s not there .

    i think it would have more to do with the designers wanting their own spin, similar to the headlights on the shoulders, the tf producers like most franchises aren't their for their love of said franchise but because the money which is fine but it just means they wouldn't care about super g1 accuracy because changing things like his ab grill won't exponentially increase sales

    I just hope they consider a smaller scale.


    It honestly seems useless a "3A scale" knowing there will be almost no figures using the same.

    the only reason they're 3a scaled is because shatter and dropkick didn't work well at a mpm scale

    I hope that means they'll actually mange to do them well. As long as the bot modes are good I'll take them. Still curious if it's even possible to pull off 2 good alt modes as well.

    Yeah if he’s as big as that comparison pic implies then I think I’m out. He looks amazing but I just don’t want another Optimus that big.

    If they wanted to have a 3A scale to make a good drop kick and shatter, I wish they’d make two versions of this guy, one with the 3A scale and one that’s downsized. Not saying they should’ve, or had to, only wishing :(
