For some reason he looks "young." |

It's cool that he's got "pupils" now and so his eyes have more detail than his other incarnations, but it doesn't seem as intimidating as those from the other incarnations of optimus prime. |

Otherwise, I love it. and you know, there's something cool about him sort of looking like he's wearing glasses. He looks like an old dignified leader. |

I'm not so sure about that NachoMon. Oh, I know his faceplate retracts, but I don't think he has a mouth proper. From what I understand, non of the transformers will have a mouth proper in the movie. it's one of those weird human things that doesn't make sense for robots, particularly alien robots.
Which does make sense, if you think about it...

From what I can tell, it looks like those V-shaped pieces in front of each eye are connected to the "nose" piece to basically form a guard for the nose and eyes like the helmets of the ancient Greeks had. It looks like that entire piece retracts upward into the crown of the helmet while the lower section splits in half and retracts into the cheek guards to either side revealing whatever Prime has for a mouth. |

If it is mid-Animation, the Glasses should completely fill out the Openings of his eyes, which would create a G1-Style Eye-Look, which would look really cool when viewing the Okulars under the Glasses.
PS: AICN got that pic deletedby Paramounts request, so be quick to DL, before it's gone! |

Obviously it isnt there now, but I think I remember reading that it will be present in the movie...perhaps when the eyes will glow when they feel emotion? |

I think what we're seeing here is a non-CG enhanced version. The 'eyes' here probably will be behind a translucent blue 'eye' that will give it a more classic look, with these being the 'eye' projectors. Atleast that's what I'm hoping for, as these eyes look plain weird. |

See M. Bay and his design team are visionaries(?). They weren't going to settle for a live action film about a toy line that looked like a toy line movie. They were all about what would "real" tranformers look like. What would they feel. F*ck the fan base! They want to show what makes Optimus tick, what inside the legend! Underneath the crappy design is a robot, and under the robot is his, ummm, necleus. |

Any such resemblence would be merely coincidental. I mean why would a ROBOT need a nose? lip? eyeballs? |
