    I would probably bite. That head reminds me of Tim Sale Batman.

    There probably isn't a mold of it if it's a prototype.

    I'm just trying to imagine how different everything would be today if Optimus had that head...

    I definitely would. I hate the head of the G1 figure and it annoys me how expensive the Device Label version with the more cartoon accurate head goes for on EBay.

    shapeways, or Venksta, or third party needs to make this upgrade.

    the shoulder blaster reminds me of Guiltar.

    It probably wouldn’t since “for safety reasons” the antennae would have likely been cut very short to match what they are now

    Ebay:
    I don't know if I would buy it, but I think it might make an interesting release. I know it's not quite the same, but it kind of reminds of McQuarrie's Star Wars concept art getting toy releases and this being a Pre-Optimus would be something along those lines.
