That Motomaster head is ugly as sin.

The trailers are cute, but I just can't get into this.

I would get the Op trailer as long as they don't want an arm & a leg for it.

The Motormaster set though ...

Liking both.

Except, that is, for the Motormaster block head. It didn't work 30 years ago and it doesn't look good now.

If the price is decent, I may finally get this Legends Prime. I need something for my desk at work.

The trailer has potential! I look forward to seeing it in color, and hope it might be offered for a good price. The new legs are also decent, as it did bug me him having big feet sticking up in the back of his truck mode. (I suppose they had to address that if attaching a trailer!)

So this set is a win for Optimus! Poor Motormaster, though. That head! It's freakin' huge on him! Makes him look super deformed. How does he even fit that thing inside of himself when he transforms?

I agree that this head looks sh*t but totally disagree about MM bucket head not working , i couldn't imagine him without it , it's an iconic part of MM design .

Indeed. Fansproject, for example, got it to work quite well. The problem here is how comically oversized it is!

Eh, I've never been a huge fan of the Motormaster design. FP nailed it though. This...it just doesn't work.

I reckon if you swapped out the head he'd look good though. Finding a good looking replacement shouldn't be hard.

A few thoughts here. I like the cyberverse line because of its low cost so this is a no for me.
Having said that the detail on the trailer is amazing and I commend the job they did. As it stands I already have a prime filling that spot and his name is ths-02 convoy.bravo though for whoever wants this.

The motormaster head though??? Lets just scrap that project shall we?
