I was planning on using the set with Evolution Prime, just because I like his color scheme the least.

So far this is quite a simple but effective addon set. Though the only thing that seems a tad bit risky (prone to breaking) are the connecting joints for the shoulder armors, which plugs into the slits of E-mode Prime's shoulders and is like 2mm?
Probably gonna do some additional paintwork on the crotch to get rid of the black diaper look.
Here's mine with BattleTanker OP

Looks great! idk how long until u.s. retail has them available.
btw the maketoys BT hands fit into E-mode Primes hands and help fill out the arms and look more like God Ginrai gauntlets if they were painted blue. Does anybody have a 3D printer that could make copies of the Maketoys BT hands? Thanks in advance.

Yea, that battle tanker looks WAY better than the original...

the base battle tanker has always been the same. but the SG versions (purple/blue for prime/magnus) came with a few extra pieces i guess to differentiate. but theres KO battle tankers now for all three versions with all pieces. so you can now get those additional SG parts in the original colors.

That wasn't meant to be a rebuttal, but one of those "that's what I meant all along, wink wink" kind of things (as in whoops, my bad).
Getting your meaning across over the interwebs is tough sometimes...

I love pretty much everything about it - it's super cool. There's just one issue. I'm using the regular Hasbro Evasion Prime, and the blue feet add ons don't quite fit. I mean, they're connected and he stands fine. There's just a 3mm gap in between the feet and the add-on foot pieces. The pics show no gap. I might try sanding the connector pegs down...
Anyone else experiencing this?

Same thing happened to me, along with the issue of the smokestacks not plugging in completely (and causing stress marks). I had to sand them both down to make them fit flush. Overall, a great add-on set that mostly does away with the hideousness of the movieverse aesthetic.

I never had the smokestack issue, but the feet issue persists. I'm starting to think they were designed to have the gap... With the gap, the feet are flush from the top, which I like. Hmm...

Sorry to hear there are some issues with the blue foot pads. I chose to get the Takara version so I utilized the other set for the feet and they went on perfect.
When I went to put the smoke stacks on the wings some stress marks were formed...anyone have that happen??
It's an almost perfect upgrade but I must say it does have some flaws. I feel that both the shoulder parts and the waist piece do affect range of motion and pose-ability. If you can get past that and you wanna improve a much needed TF you must get this set...'nuff said!
