Legacy G1 Optimus, with upgrades and a customised trailer.

This is a very light custom, but I wanted to show it off.

The LG G1 Optimus is kinda compatible with the Earthrise Optimus Trailer mold. Why "kinda"? Because if you peg in the trailer hitch as is, the trailer is a bit crooked. First, I gave him the VNR trailer. Then what I did is to modify the trailer's peg with a longer peg and a washer of some sort.

While modifying the trailer, I bought the VNR trailer upgrade, painted it, then I installed it. I made it so the "under-grill" things can turn. I also created a small axe holder adapter for inside the trailer. I had some scrap G1 parts, so I could had the G1 Diaclone seats inside the trailer as well. Roller comes from the official Hasbro accessory kit from a few years back. Finally, I bought and installed the gap fillers for Optimus, and the Reprolabels for both the trailer and the bot.

Simple, but it still took a long time to make. Enjoy the pictures!

Cool, been looking for something like this! What was the kit you used for parts or stickers? I know there are some G1 Prime parts on Cults 3D.

The Diaclone seats from inside the trailer were cannibalised from a scrap G1 Optimus trailer. The ax adapter was made out of a piece of scrap from some vintage Cybertron toy. As for the rest of the upgrades, Roller comes from the official Hasbro Pulse exclusive kit from way back, and the undersides plus the rear door is the VNR upgrade kit. *That last one can still be found on eBay or AliExpress.) Finally, I used the G2 Optimus stickers set for the Earthrise Nemesis trailer from Toyhax.
