>>10543540NTA and to be fair, we never had a new Armada Optimus Prime toy in 20 years ever since Bendy Prime back in Armada's run. I think it was for the best that the toy we got is as accurate to the animation model as possible while fixing a few things here and there like the backpack. A lot of people would've complained about getting that stylized prototype because Armada and UT rarely gets the bone these days even though we're just starting to get Minicons, also the original design and the super mode is far superior over the stylized prototype, the animation model as well as the toy we got have blocky monkey like arms which is far better than the dinky arms on that stylized prototype.
That being said, now that we got an almost accurate Armada Optimus out of the way I wouldn't mind Hasbro going back and reviving that stylized prototype. I can already tell other than what we've seen that the stylized prototype's super mode would have very short shoulder pads and the arms would look funky since most likely the back of the leg would be facing forwards. This world has a place for both Armada Optimus's.
