Thanks for all your effort in making such an in-depth video about this wonderful, long-awaited Optimus Prime figure. At first I felt the same as you do regarding C-02 Prime's proportions, but then I realized that's part of his charm. Handling this guy has made me realize that I even have an attachment to his imperfections. Weirdly, I appreciate that he has all this new articulation but I've had him posed like the old, brick Prime because those are some of my best memories of him. If I want new and improved, that's where all my current Optimus Prime figures come in. Thanks again, Erick. Subbed!
Yeah my suggested changes don't take away from the fact that I really love what they did. The G1 toy was really good to begin with so any modern updates were just the cherry on top. Thanks for watching!
I got mine this weekend and I love it👍🏾
Congrats! It is an amazing figure.
Agreed with the wheels&head. The thighs are a bit thin so it could be wider and might be able to rotate it a bit. The elbow could instead be the wheels attached to it so that it could rotate&flip to hide it inside the torso. The back empty space in alt-mode could be used for the crotch and slide down to make sure the legs are kept apart while the wheels move into that empty space. More likely ppl will just 3D print the improvements.
I have been wondering if third party companies would do an upgrade kit for this guy. My nitpicks are pretty specific and aren't general thoughts I've heard any other reviewers mention. If they do make any kits I guess one thing they could do is add the G1 style backpack just so it covers up the gap through the back. And a crotch "gap filler" just so those sliding panels get some extra security and stability when posing the legs. If they ever KO this guy I'd get one or two just so I could see what I could do. Thanks for watching!
