Even though he's not red, blue, and grey, the black and red color scheme is quite menasing. And seperates him from simply being another Nemesis Prime. And I like to think of the planet symbols on his shoulders as planets he's destroyed. Like how fighter pilots put a mark on their jet for every enemy they've killed. Then there's the alt mode. Similar, though he has 2 cannons instead of 1. He's even got a jet mode, so there's a little bit of Starsceams influence there.
Yes! Completely agree, even though I don't have the mold, it is pretty close judging from pics. Now if it had been released as a Decepticon, there would be even more closeness.
As for Cybertron itself, didn't pick too much of it up. No job at the time(I now finally have one), and other things seemed to take priority then. Still, most of what I did pick up I enjoyed, and was fortuneate to find good old Primus on clearance. The one figure I didn't like was Thundercracker. Oh, it wasn't the loose arms or anything, it was the fact that it broke unrepairably at the shoulders after about two weeks with minimal and pretty careful handling. I'm still bummed at that....
But if there are two figures I'm so glad I picked up(once again, clearance....I'm cheap), it's Jungle Planet Optimus Primal and Megatron. First of all, I love both molds, and I love the detail on them. I also love the neat new colors chemes on them, they aren't "show accurate"(I know they released ones that were), but they look great all the same. I also like the smaller deluxe size.
