>>10965944>a part of me that still wants a Classics/Henkei Optimus.Do it. Absolutely worth it. I got my hands on the mold for the first time just a few years ago and it's charming as fuck with wonderful, chunky plastic and a solid feel that has been absent from Transformers for a long time since. The fact that he has so much of his own style and personality is a big part of what helps him hold up. Unlike modern bots, he's not just a placeholder for the next, more accurate attempt; Classics Optimus is Classics Optimus.
>>10965942>At this point Classics Optimus is as worthy of an update as anythingI wouldn't mind this, but I think it's one of those cases where an update would be somewhat doomed to failure, because all the things that made Classics Optimus good are things that Hasbro has profit-margined out of existence. Like yeah you could give him ankle tilts and maybe tidy him up a bit, but that's not going to make him a better toy.
