i brought a TRU Optimus Prime off ebay a year or so ago for 20 bucks and it was only missing his Gun. Recently... i've been trying to aquire all the missing parts for my Transformers and I wanted to buy that. However, I don't like that G1 Prime has to have his gun sideways........ What did you guys with a G1 Prime do? why does Prime have what looks like a GI JOE handle on his gun?

There is a customizer out there that used to cast a gun for prime that he could hold correctly. Unfortunately i don't remember the site...i'm sure somebody does.

What do you mean he can only hold his gun sideways? Mine (TRU reissue, Hasbro Pepsi Prime, and Encore reissue) holds his gun just fine the normal way.

I don't like the way either of them look...... I'm thinking of maybe just cutting off the back handle and using super glue to attach it there....

Anyone done that?

I'd advise anyone to stay away from that site. It used to be a good place way back when but since the stroke.... Nobody has heard from him. I dunno why his site is even up still, that seems pretty shady if you ask me.
