I'm reposting this here since I have a feeling a lot of you guys probably missed it when it was initially posted in the Slagacon Registration news. They are working on an exclusive Powermaster upgrade for the Classics OP mold. Here's the concept art:

This piece is the "make it or break it" for me going to this con. I wish we knew who the maker was. If not that, then I need actual pics or proto pics before I bite.

If this thing turns out well I must have it.

Freaking want, but alas it shall not be. :sad:

I'm generally not interested in firepower upgrades, but overall this DOES look good. Nonetheless, my Classics Prime is already wearing Fansproject's Powered Convoy upgrade. On the OTHER other hand, I leave the FP legs off, so maybe a combination of the two sets would turn out awesome...

If this thing ever makes it to BBTS or another site for pre-order, I'd buy it INSTANTLY.

Although from the sounds of things, I probably won't ever find it. Oh well, thems the breaks.

It's currently down on the Slagacon site. Did anyone catch what the price was when it was first up?

This kind of makes me wish I didn't sell my Classics Op when I bought the Henkei OP :-(

Looks interesting. I wanna see a final product first, then I'll make my decision......

If this is good quality, I will want it.

Oh man, that's certified badass! I'd buy it if it was easily vailable for around the same cost as the City Commander upgrade.

My wife has a good friend in Indy, so we were thinking about going to this.

ROADTRIP!

That's the first thing I thought too.

Who's making this and how does it look in reality? These are the deciding factors for me. Money won't be a hurdle if this thing is made by somebody decent.

Judging by the pic. it looks like they'll be a Powermaster prime trailer. then after that they'll be a Godbomber trailer.

I guessed on the Godbomber trailer/armor because PMOP never had wings & shoulder canons. also certain parts in that pic are all blacked out indicating Godbomber is comming after PMOP gets released.

Ofcause this is just my random guessing.

Yeah, that's it without a doubt. Just, obviously, without the Godbomber pieces. It's blocky and undercolored... but I really like it. I could see putting the legs and shoulders from this on my Powered Commmander.

The basis there looks decent but it certainly needs a good deal of fine tuning and detail and paint. Here's to hoping.

Does it come w/ the Nebulan partner? If it doesn't than I won't put money on it. I've been looking for something like this but it has to have Hi-Q.

I'd bet against it since the chest-piece add-on would cover up where he's supposed to go anyway.

With just a bit of work that custom could be just as nice as CC. Never bought Powered Commander, so this would be a great fit for me.

Just ... maybe not so soon. I'm feeling the strain on my wallet thanks to all the great stuff coming out by 3rd party guys just int he last little while.

I've been hoping that someone would take a crack at a Powermaster/Ginrai upgrade for Classics/Henkei Prime, so I'm potentially very interested in this, though I doubt I will have the time to attend a convention in Indiana in order to get one.
