Regardless of anything else,

Regardless of anything else, that paint job is rad as hell.

One of many

I think this figure is the stand out example of what good can come from the Movie Line. No kibble, solid figure, and a great representation of what G1 fans always wanted while staying true to the movie's design.

Unfortunately its already being released in the 3 to 4+ variants:

the first one "Made to G1 colors", a two-pack with Grimlock (with chrome), and the "Evolution" set with the Classics mold of Optimus, both with chrome. And now.. this.

I think though that they're making repainting the earlier figures pointless with each figure becoming more screen accurate.
