Why in the blue hell is that not Rodimus Prime?
I mean I get that they REALLY want to shoehorn Optimus into all of these crossovers but why make a Rodimus Prime, give him Rodimus Prime's colors and then end up giving him Optimus Prime's facemask and chest? They like Rodimus in Japan right? And he's still a Prime after all. So maybe for this one they could've thrown him a bone like they did for Megatron and the Godzilla crossover.
SOMEONE better make new chest panels, head and hands for this alongside a decal sheet to cover the blue parts and to make the wings yellow.
Hell, I might just repaint it myself. Shouldn't be too difficult except for the hands.
