>>10920463>i want to like tm1 optimus so badly, but I canna. the stupid spindly robot shins that fold up into the gorilla legs and/or into a surfboard... are just not okay. nor is the arms not changing at all. Redesign, I say!!I actually like it a lot, specially the toy. There's something really ingenious at how simple but fun the transformation is. The way the whole torso rotates to change the metallic blue to organic, and how the back piece moves to hide the other mode chest as the sides of the gorilla turn into the robot shoulderpads is really neat.
Also dig the silly surfboard too, reminds me of Funky Kong. And can't help but see his blaster as the coconut gun.
