The Energon Pub

Hi all,

Just wanted to share with you that i spotted in stores (toy stores) in Israel a new Optimus Prime costume (G1 style).

We are celebrating the Jewish holiday Purim (it's like Halloween, when people were Costumes).

by the way, this is the short Smokestack version bat you can get the long Smokestack upgrade kit via 3rd party on ebay .

here is some pictures I’ve taken:

The face is dreadful, it looks like an Aztec mask of some type which is cool for that but not as the face of optimus prime...it just looks wrong...it also looks like one of his hubcaps was run over and used as his face, the smoke stacks are wrong definitely get the "upgrade" and it would look better with the voice changing helmet even if it is not entirely G1 looking.

Welcome to the forums however!

wow, an autobot symbol instead of OP
s head, how clever.

That's the worst attempt at looking like Prime that I've ever seen. Last hallowe'en I saw two guys who had made Prime and Soundwave costumes from boxes and they were excellent.

Looks funny.
