A very nice mold that I'm looking forward too. The only thing holding it back is that the truck mode color scheme took a left turn at Albuquerque.

and oh hey, open sculpt hands! Wonder if he can hold that matrix of leadership that RtS Rodimus came with...

I hope it stands out better on the shelves than it appears to.

Wish they would have at least made him voyager class instead of deluxe. I loved the quality of the Toys R' Us deluxe Prime & Voyager Megatron builds. I think that was one of the only real prime deluxe molds of recent that has been worth anything. I also liked the RID deluxe Scourge, but that wasn't a prime build.

I'm a sucker for swordbots, especially ones with this much articulation. He's Bendy Prime 2.0.

And I still think this would make a fantastic candidate for a Motormaster remold/redeco.

No, I could see this juy as more of a Nemesis Prime remold/redeco. :D

I still think he could be colored more like the Laser Prime toy in vehicle mode. I mean if he's supposed to be a homage, go all out! Why make a homage then change the colors?

Apparently for the sake of doing double duty. The blue cab and orange sword are reminiscent of movie optimus, so it seems that they intend for this toy to be able to be easily re purposed to represent the movie prime, and therefore be a lower cost and simpler alternative for people seeking a movie prime.
