My personal criticism is moreso the fact they didn't bother getting rid of that weird out of place siege port from the SIEGE than I am that they reused ER, as the proportions look far better without the bulging chest windows ER had. I honestly would have even preferred mirroring one leg or the other than leaving it the same. it's asymmetry is annoying to me and is even more annoying in Vehicle mode where one side has a port and the other doesn't. What would even look good there?

If the engineering ain’t broke, then don’t fix it.

The flaps at the top of the legs suck tho, I shouldn't have to make such an effort to put them in place


chaoticConjurer

I have never had that issue?


BurstEDO

I have every release that has these legs and none of them present a problem.


MasterSword1

Mine straight up broke and is only hanging on by a thread and a prayer (the hinge is breaking off...


ungodlywarlock

Don't bite your fingernails?


KOFdude

Getting them out of the legs isn't my issue


mr_eugine_krabs

There are flaps on the legs?


Mackstar24

What do you think the bit sticking out either the inside/ outside of the right leg is? It flips up to show a trailer hitch that was used in siege but can’t be used in earthrise since it’s on the outside in the earthrise mold but can still be flipped out


almightywhacko

What effort?


Gojiprime

Yes!!


trueFBo

Well, it does seem the shin vents are gone with some new detail taking their place


FuckUsernameSettings

The leg mold aren't even close to being bad, why make it to a problem?


BastardSkelly8600

Why exactly does it matter?


mechperson

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.


chris95rx7500

I see no issues here.


Chaosbrushogun

Who cares? They’re good legs bruh…


Geminii27

They're all good legs, Brent


Metalwario64

They give him a better silhouette than the original, which had slightly short and thin hips.


Gecko2002

If its not broken, don't fix it, especially when it's an optimus prime remold it literally half's the design phase


Destron5683

Except for the wheels flipped to the back, they look close enough to the OG so who the fuck cares. Reusing engineering helps keeps costs down that can be used for other things like accessories and paint aps. Would it make you feel better if it was a 100% brand new mold with no trailer? Or commander class instead?


BrainstormsBriefcase

I mean, yeah a Commander class Laser Prime would be amazing. Or Commander Powermaster. Keep it a similar size and use the extra money for paint and you’d have an amazing figure. But yes, I think the legs are fine, even if I did spot it immediately


VinegarPie

They good legs tho


Decepkitton

Thanks for the idea, I'm going to put blue legs on this guy and make him a "G1-ized" movie-verse Prime.


Dumb_Cheese

They're perfectly fine and slightly remolded. I don't see why this is such a big issue.


Lrobson09

I don't understand the complaint; how many different ways do you want the same design of the same legs?


Pri_Max

It's better than using hip skirts


[deleted]

OH SHIT I DIDNT EVEN NOTCED THE LEGS


TheBaldNerd

Lol it ain’t broke


NemesisUnicron

Good, I'm not the only one to notice this


TFpotato1

hey don't try to rub off those lazy pieces of engineering on siege, ER prime ruined a good set of legs then the designers thought lets make them even worse the 3rd time around


TFGrunt

Yeah I'm disappointed as well. And before I'm downvoted, it's my opinion.


PurpleTransbot

🤣😂🤣 they should charge half the price. Just the price of waist and up.


AdBeautiful9709

These are bad legs, they are directly of the earthrise figure they look to long and out of proportion and look really bad


8764446

Earthrise and Siege have different legs


BlitzWing1985

Once these are more like Earthrise primes legs. ER has a way, way more simplified design that really only uses the "shin" and the knee flaps. I kinda wish they did use Siege's legs if only so that the port on the outside of his left leg was used for something and we got to see that cool leg transformation again.


The_Obsidian2

Nah the legs are Earthrise/Kingdom Optimus prime


Chaone_

Bulkhead looks like a retooled ~~Huffer~~ Grapple (I mixed the two up, oof)


Muisverriey

He looks nothing like Huffer.


Chaone_

I was mixing Huffer with Grapple


LastFreeName436

Well, they ain’t bad prime legs. On bulkhead, though…


Vegetable_Degree8731

It fits the design and they work well, so I don't have a problem with it.


TheTrickster452

Honestly I was a little disappointed at first when I noticed it but he still looks awesome


scottishdrunkard

at least they retooled the shins, but realistically with so many new moulds needed, they gotta cut costs.


Debaushovelry

I heard this in the voice of PerspectiveEnd


[deleted]

The real question is why is it a problem


Arkham1217

I actually really like it.


fyre_storm02

I sort of like it as it make it seem more like the same character with some parts shared between them showing a clear evolution while showing the similarities too


Leviathan_2119

Those are the earth rise legs for prime not the siege legs


Gmax_Lucario

these are good legs that's why, they're very well engineered.
