Seibertron.com member Cryo Prime has posted a mini review of the MP Optimus Prime/ Convoy upgrade Battle Rollar figure. Check out what he had to share below:


"An insignificant droid." You might make this definition when you look at Battle Rollar firsthand. You might even call him a coward considering his inaction against the raid at the energon storehouse. However, things might change... You cannot imagine such a tiny 'bot will have an opportunity to reformat his body and prove himself by saving his big friend and leader. Maybe you should change your mind and respectfully call him -- Battle Rollar!

This is the bio of Battle Rollar. I thought I would show some of you the things that Battle Rollar can do that no one really mentioned. For instance, he can combine with Optimus Prime's gun to form a Super Blaster and also combine with classics Prime, Movie Prime and Masterpiece Prime to form jet packs. So here are the pictures I have.

I'm very excited about this figure (have been for some months now). The pics are great and I didn't even know his windshields turned into a shield.

Just out of curiosity, where exactly did you order yours from? My girlfriend ordered mine for my bday back in October from Robot Kingdom. I'm getting a little antsy because she says she hasn't received a confirmation email from RK saying it shipped.

Those pictures make the figure look so cool...can't wait to get my mitts on him.

Did they send you an email or something letting you know it shipped? I'm really confused as to why I haven't received mine yet. She ordered it like October 15th or something and hasn't heard a word from RK.

Weird...I hope RK is a trustworthy site because I should have gotten my order by now. This is the first time I (well..my girlfriend) has gotten anything from anywhere other than EBay.

Oh well, congrats on the acquisition. He looks like a great toy. Thanks again for the info and for sharing some awesome pics.

It can be a back pack for Classics Prime too? Wouldn't that be a pretty big back pack?

I've been buying from robot kingdom for years and they have always been reliable, even so I've not heard anything about my rollar yet perhaps they are just behind in filling the orders.

Up to now I have been using primarly http://www.Digital-toys.com and the odd time http://www.Bigbadtoystore.com for some items which can be cheaper. But when the canadian dollar dropped. I found Robot kingdom. The only issue I have with them is when you pre order you have to pay up front unlike the other stores when you pre order you pay when shipped. But fast, cheap, reliable, great condtition. I got roller last night which was fast with my thundercracker, I am used to a 2week waiting period but not now. I even switched my pre order of MP Grimlock from digital to Robot kingdom.

--Looks good as vehicle.
--Looks good as robot.
--Has good weapons.
--Transforms with Optimus gun to make bigger gun.
--Transforms into Optimus flight pack.

...Damn, they though of everything.

Very nice job here. The only thing left is to see it cast in different colors. (Personally, I'd like it in primarily black, with neon green. A clear neon green canopy that glows under fluorescent blacklight would be freaking awesome as well).

(Never was a fan of trans-red plastic...)

i thought the same thing, i like the colors but the black with neon green is my favorite color combo. i might get another one just to alter the paint job.

Same.
Whenever I play with Lego, I inevitably wind up right back doing black and neon green.

If I had my way, I'd send every Transformers mold I liked off to be recast in those colors. :grin:

Getting a duplicate of Rollar would be nice to repaint, but that darn canopy is STILL going to be dark red. :(

Got mine from BBTS a couple hours ago. I'm really glad I got him now. Looks great, plenty of articulation, lots of fun to be had with his various modes.
