I own this beautiful beast as of today. Amazing piece. Quite hefty, too. I didn't think it would be as large as it is, but dang. A little creaky sounding when transforming, scares the crapola out of you, but it's sturdy.
Fantastic paint job, too. The silver application is excellent. I just have no idea what the heck to do with those lights in vehicle mode, so I just leave them on the ring and move them around.
It's dang nice, though. Scared a bit when opening it, I was worried I'd be one of the unfortunate ones with broken wheels. There's been at least two reports of wheels broken off the axle in the box. =\
One thing that does suck? The batteries seem to be irreplaceable. Looks like they're soldered in. Another =\ for that.
I'm not so sure about this, what's your take on it? Leader Class Optimus Transforming Trailer.

Doesn't bother me greatly, as I had no plans on getting this... but who puts a non-replaceable battery in a toy intended for adult collectors, who will want to keep this in working order for years to come? It is annoying enough in toys meant for kids, which are usually something of transient value to the owner in the first place. But this, which I suspect many who buy it will want to own for their lifetime? That seems like a fail to me.

Personally,I don't need a trailer that transforms into a circle race track. Even if it is Dotm movie accurate. Even if it's meant to represent some sort of repair bay or weapons deplacement.
What I need is trailers to transform into either suits of armor. or break up into armor parts so the robot can wear them.
Even though it's a jet-trailer or weapons-whatever. This is what I'm looking for. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/prod ... ode=retail

I'm selling mine on eBay for $80 if you want it. Maybe cheaper if we go through Seibertron instead of eBay. PM me.

Thanks for the offer. I want to get this but it's not on my immediate priority buy list.
