>>5824452The first examples (sentinel prime-astrotrain, blaster-soundwave, and the infamous blurr to brainstorm) were clearly after thought retools, and those won't go (look at getaway being a head only retool of chromedome) but then we get stuff like scourge and highbrow, and this.
They actually thought out laser optimus well, the alt mode and robot forms match him well, leaving the OC jet in so they can reuse it to make a just as fitting octane.
And looking at this, I'm glad they didn't just throw in a base mode
(before you mention it or anyone else does there is another simerlar g2 era optimus, I'm not sure where its based on, I get the 2 mixed up)
