Hello,

I am new to the forum and need some help. I recently got a Prime FE voyager Optimus. However, I really want a trailer with it. Ideally, one that can fit a deluxe class or two in it. Is there anything out there, from another Optimus toy perhaps, that looks good with it and works well? Surely, someone has tried this over the years! It's fine if the trailer hitch peg needs to be modded, etc. I'm looking for something reasonably attainable, i.e. I'm not going to shell out for an MP version just to nab the trailer.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Welcome to the site. With all sincerity I think you'll be in luck looking for a 3rd party model and their prices are really waaaaaaaaaay out there.

Iirc, there was a trailer but not for the FE version. It was for the 2nd Prime Optimus Prime version..........and that was years ago.

You try ebay (kind of risky) or AliExpress (somewhat risky) or some of this site's sponsors that sell 3rd party items.

Sounds to me as if you really like FE Optimus. I tried to like the figure but I disliked the headlights being right below his red chest piece

The only time he had a trailer was in one episode as shown here:

The fortunate thing is that the FE Prime mold has a nice peg port. The challenge is finding an appropriately sized trailer that resembles the fictional one.

This video shows a mod to use one of the movie trailers:

In terms of Unofficial trailers, the Fansproject one is an option and it looks to be sized correctly. The port is totally incompatible, so some connector change would be required.

Another option is the old BTS Mobile Command trailer. Again, a port adjustment is necessary, and it's a different take on what the show portrays.

What were you considering as an option?
