Hehe, I like how it can wear the Godbomber chest. Cool idea though to make it compatible with multiple primes, gives people some options.

Meh, I hate this a little less now. Looks kinda ok with classics prime. Looks like the legs pretty much dangle out of the back, though.

It's times like this that I regret selling my Classics Prime. Might have to buy another.

Tempting, but I'll have to see the final colors. Couldn't have come at a better time tho

Do I want a new take on PowerMaster Prime?
Very much so.

Am I going to blow my load on the first one to roll out the factories?
Nope!

I'm impressed with the flexibility of Optimus' this piece can accomodate. (Very impressed that one of them is voyager Classics Optimus. Didn't expect that.) I just can't see this guy fitting well with the rest of my Classics collection. It's like the G1 PM OP with better articulation, and I think it'd look like a 7 year old's crayon drawing compared to the degree level technical drawings of most Classics and 3rd party figures.

This is an expensive hobby, and I can't justify spending money on something that doesn't immediately shove it's hand down the front of my trousers and leaves me sore downstairs for the rest of the day as soon as I lay eyes on it.

P.S. Does anyone else think that the sides of the trailer mode are suspiciously absent in robot mode?

Why do such a silly thing?

News Credits: 8 · by **Forgotten** » Wed Mar 14, 2012 7:20 am

meh. I will stick with my original. This just doesn't do it for me, especially with the inevitability of FP doing a Ginrai homage. When this is released in Nucleon Quest colors with lots of fixes I might go for it, but not before.

I need to see full colour final product pictures to be sure, but I think this might just be the first third-party product I buy! Of course I would need to buy another PM Prime cab to go with it.... this set looks more to be Ginrai than Powermaster Prime, especially with the dimensions.

by **SJ21** » Wed Mar 14, 2012 7:55 am

The bot mode pics look good. I can't wait to see what the final product looks like. Prime looks pretty bad @ss.

At least I won't have to track down the Powered Commander armor from FansProject. This is 10,000 times better.

Wow, this looks really good. Hopefully it wont cost a bajillion doodars.

It's definitely tempting. I like my original, but this might actually be worth getting to replace the brick, depending on how much it will be.

Seriously? You relate seeing a toy to getting a hard on? What are we twelve on this forum?

This kind of talk really bothers me on here. Have some respect for not only yourself, but for others around you.

This isn't a Judd Apatow movie. Not everybody in real life talks that disgusting.

Damn, I'm really liking this! But that trailer mode leaves me wanting; at least for Classics Prime. It looks like it's really at an angle. But I *am* impressed with how it combined with Classics Prime; I honestly didn't think the voyager could do it!

But no decision is made until I see full color.

Sorry no matter how good the rest looks the feature is just too stupid. Shove a cab in my chest and I become a robot. Lazy...

I actually thought the comment was funny as hell !!! :lol:

Sodan-1 isnt known for having a sense of humor often so I welcome his sarcasim. Ive been on a mission to make these forums more fun for years. It doesnt have to be boring...

It's armor. Just like the original Powermaster Optimus. Cab becomes the standard robot and the trailer becomes armor that can only be used while in vehicle mode.

No, it doesn't have to be boring. But, it doesn't have to be perverted either. I like playful jabs and making funny comments as much as the next person, but that wasn't even funny to me.

I live a life where I laugh and crack jokes all day. Not once though do I, my family or coworkers talk like that. Of the 80 people I work with, not one person talks like that. Of the friends I have, not one talks like that.

...

I'll bump it up to a maybe. When are we going to get a decent Classics version of Powermaster Prime?

News Credits: 1 · by **Gauntlet101010** » Wed Mar 14, 2012 9:43 am

Well, of course the cap just plugs into the trailer. It's Powermaster Prime! It's a definitive part of his look. Doing anything else may be ""cooler", but it woulnd't be Powermaster Prime anymore. At least not a G1 PM Prime; jury's out on FP's Heartmaster figure who just might be a War Within Powermaster Ultra Magnus (with inevitable Prime recolor).
