I have plans to build one from scratch. I'm still working on designing the interior though.

Here's the link: http://www.tfmaster.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6172

Thanks for the link Tramp, I'll be watching your progress! For the record I like #5 best, with #1 a close second

Magnet. They swivel, come apart easy, are easy to get.

Trailer: Though not easy to come by out of convention season, the G1 trailer is the right general shape for Both Movie Prime and Classics Prime. (Possibly since tehy're vehicle modes are compreable to G1's) the only issue is getting a larger set of wheels. But that isn't too hard.

The G1 trailer won't fit the Classics Prime. It's too small and too low to the ground.

As far as too small I don't see it. it may not be exactly scale to a 53ft trailer, But the heigth and spacing looks right to me.

(The Weathervane on top of Prime should we almost even with the top of the trailer)

I've tried it. The ground clearance is too low. That is the problem.

Eh, alright whatever.

I could use a trailer to fit the Ultimate Battle Prime or the Robot Masters Prime (seeing as how his legs are the same height off the ground as my knockoff Transformatrix Prime), if anyone knows of any cheap ones from other toys/models that could work! I certainly don't need it to fold into a base or even open, though the latter ability would be nice. (Transformatrix Prime could store his extra robot parts in there!) I'm not exceedingly worried about the pegs fitting, as I'm not planning on rolling them around much.



Even a toothpaste box makes UB Prime's alt mode look that much better!

It has to be slightly functional... able to be pulled along.

I want to see what Tramp posts next. And guys, keep a lookout for any toys with a trailer that fits.
