Boring. It looks like Cybertron Defense Scattorshot crossed with Energon Landmine.

By the looks of the conspicuous pegs on the 'bed' of the truck, I'd say that an 'Apex' trailer is certainly at least in the planning stages.

He's from IDW's -tion series of comics, where Nova Prime wentered the Dead Universe and thus became the lovable twisted psychopath we know today.

Looks cool, but he just ain't the same without the big evil angel wings.

he's only ok without the horns and the wings sadly

Really like that alt mode, not feeling the bot mode.

The page states that the winner of the auction for this gray proto will also get part two, the proto for the trailer?

This is awesome but it'll cost like two kidneys and some more.

Strike Freedom Prime(or Hi-Nu?), I mean Nova Prime looks very cool with the added trailer components!

From Mastercollectables.com:

1. Is Nova Commander going to be mass produced?
The short answer is No. The reasons are the following.

This is not for sale.

Yeah, I read the post this morning at the web site. It's too bad but it shows what can be done on an independent design and production level so Hasbro/TakTom, kick it up a notch please.
