3rd party Optimus rifle?

Weapon: Indepentently Targetable Particle Beam Cannons
Okay guys...this one is a little vague (okay, alot vague)..but I need your experience on this one...

I remember a while back seeing a 3rd party rifle that closely resembled OP's Big 'ol Gun from his G1 days, it was mostly black with a few blue highlights (i think lightpiping on the gun..?).

Problem is, now that i decide I finally want it...I can't find it anywhere and I don't remember who made it or what it was called. I think it might have been made by BTS and might have come as an accessories pack with a few other pieces...by gosh I don't remember.

+10 cool points and eternal gratefulness to whomever can help me name/locate this item.

Thanks!

That would be the TFCToys Gear of War 2 set. Sadly though I'm not finding it in stock anywhere at the moment.

I'll second Mkall and yes it doesn't seem to be anywhere.
BBTS has it in sold Out Pre-Order status set to arrive in May. But I think its been that way for a while now with the arrival dates changed to the current month.

Alternatively there's the BTS-03 Matrix of Leadership Set. It comes with G1 style rifle. No light piping or electronics here though.

My siggy has Prime Prime holding the Exclusive Translucent blue version you got when you bought it off of BBTS.

Sadly its sold out in BBTS, but in stock minus the blue rifle at Tfsource.

Its a pretty cool set though.

Yes, quite cool set.
Not caring about scale since 1984. Just like Hasbro.
