Finally opened my Optimus. Absolutely fantastic. The detailing on the arms and legs for what were originally stickers is just great. I'm a little dispointed the trailer is just the G1 trailer but not sure what I expected there. Might have just bought the cab if I'd known/realised, but finding out it's cartoon colours makes me glad I got C-01.
Really hope we get more of this line - Decepticons please!

In it's place the entire control tower structure, including the blue base, detaches from the truck shell as an autonomous vehicle. Trailer has been re-engineered to allow the control tower to serve as a mobile drone at the cost of the launcher mechanism. We were told the trailer was toast previously so I'm guessing it was a ground up redo. Roller has also been modified so his 5mm port is on a pivot You can just about see the Contol Tower's wheels in this pic

It's different. It doesn't do something the original did but does do something else instead that the original doesn't.

Of all the things they could have done with ML Convoy, Yellow Sentinel Prime is quite possibly the oddest.

Seeing it before Nemesis Prime and Ultra Magnus' cab, even dead Prime, is a bit mad

Shouldn't it be Sentinel Convoy? I don't know how these things work...
My only disappointment is that it's not quite in Irn-Bru colours. Close, Takara, but not close enough...

Who didn't see this coming? Oh no one at all. That is mad. Who's going to fork out all that money for a piss-yellow Prime? I said this 20 years ago about Shining Magnus and have regretted it ever since.

There's a lift in Birmingham I believe that'll accommodate your needs.
Honestly I do wonder about our forum community sometimes, but after over 20 years you're kinda hard to let go.

Nobody has had trouble letting it go in that lift!

The Birmingham Piss Lift is legendary. I have to check it is still there whenever I am in the area.

I want one, though it is ugly. FB seems to think it's the truck Prime was scanned from in the first episode. Certainly, the angle of the shot matches the angle of the truck when it is scanned and the colour is a good match.

It's just a shame that the trailer isn't similarly recoloured. I'd say that maybe that would be too much, but then "Shining" magnus already exists, so there's no argument there...

Being based on the truck that is scanned for primes earth mode.
I don't know if that makes it more or less strange

Now, you see, I kinda like it. However, I would rather gen deluxe toy prime with ER trailer, than ML.
