Just wondering if anyone in Australia or Europe (if anyone in the US can answer this feel free but it was during the Europe exclusive/ G1 classic time) ever got an Optimus Prime with the Black G2 trailer but not in a G2 box or with G2 accessories (the electronic box and new guns)?
So has anyone else seen, owned or heard of this? I believe its existance is due to G2 being around the corner making it highly likely that G2 Primes were just put in current transformer boxes without the additional accessories.

Re: A Prime Question
I saw one in Movie Maniacs in Australia a few years ago. 2nd hand. I thought they just didn't have a clue, and had been scammed by someone into buying a G2 toy in a G1 box for more than it was worth.

The only time I have seen the black version of the trailer in G1ish packaging have been KO's. Mostly with a Black cab but I have seen it with a Red cab.
At least for North America the G1 version of Prime had off store shelves for ages before being replaced with the Powermaster release so it just wasn't likely that a g2 produced trailer could find it's way in o a package that had been retired a few years prior.

Re: A Prime Question
Thanks for the responses
Well I know it's no KO I still own it and remember picking it out from the shelf at my local Kmart (parents always let me choose one gift of my choice for my b-day) and it was not the only one on the shelf at the time hence my question if anyone else had come across this as I know it was not a one off mistake.
@Arucard- Well at least I know I may not be the only one I know who has also seen this
