i have to say armada did suck but primes cab was so cool sadly his trailer sucked

yeah, his cab pissed me off. His super mode (when he combines with the cab) was just awful. I liked the Powerlinx Optimus/Jetfire combo better, the colors just matched better when combined.

note prime has no wheels in the first pic

There is a Mega SCF of em I think.

No, just plain SCF. See?

 

In the first pic he looks like a cross between RID Prime, G1 Prime and very slightly Rodimus/WWI Prime (the arm cannons/pipes on the arms).

The arm canons are from his earth mode.

Head, legs, hips (minus front skirt armor), and forearms are pretty much the same as his earth mode. The chest is new (slightly reminiscent of RiD Prime, but with a more classic-style grille), and he has stacks in the place of his wheels on his shoulders.

You think this was a deliberate nod on the animators part to RID?

This could possibly be where they got the idea for WWI Prime. They should have made a figure out of that first Armada Prime too. I don't know what he transformed into, but it would still be cool.

Yes.
