Yeah, a bunch of players made note of it on the official CoV boards. Some were even "offended" and found it degrading that the leader of the Autobots would be morphed into a black market dealer...

i saw that pic i nthe screens and instantly thought huh since when did optimus prime join a life of crime ( no pun intended on the rhyme). i wonder if that was the devs intent or just a wierd fluke. cause the transformers are a very popular thing im sure someone in that studio musta been like huh that looks alot like optimus prime, oh well whatever the case may be they do need ot change that or they will be facing another copyright lawsuit. Its called the black market so why not make the truck black with mud and rust all over it and give it a rusty trailer to go with it, will fit the villian side well i think

It's just a game, if they didn't want him like this I am sure that it would have already went down.

From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimus_Prime:
Its a real life truck-model (Freightliner LLC has the copyright for that trademark), Hasbro's copyright has nothing to do with painted trucks. Now if that truck where to become a robot then we would have something to discuss. (http://www.freightliner.com/inside/our-history.aspx# has a timeline with pictures of the truck used for Optimus Prime). |

I am guessing this is a 100% intentional.
