I would love to give you a link back to the post with all 25 some pics of the display, but our friend PhuckYouBucket took care of that.
But since you asked real nice, here's a pic from 4 years ago.

Now it's a graveyard of jungle beast and giant insect carcuses.
It's actually next on my to-dos. Gotta get in there and stand everybody back up. ;)^

Hold on now.... I did some Googlin...

* A bunch of scientifical research googly moogly I already dun said!*

Now, maybe it was a fever dream, but I coulda swore I've seen some pre-Transformers Protectobots. They must have existed at some point as prototypes. Where else does a red Hotspot come from... I know, G2, but... why do I have this image in my head of an old timey Defensor in red? :-?
I feel it's totally for real possible. It sounds right and good. I just don't have retreavible access to it in my own central data core. This KO in these colors has been around forever though. I remember seeing it in Chinatown, Chicago in the 80's.

HOLD UP! HOLD UP! I just googlyed "European Transformers" and found this.

I know that is NOT a European type set, but....
There's yer BIGFOOT!

Imma second that, CoBro!! The "older" pic is appreciated and I am looking forward to the redux. :)

Well you know what they say?




Once you go mammoth, you never go truck! :P

DUDE! This mold is RAD! With a capital RAD!
So look, the mammoth mode is a brick. An awesomely sculpted brickaphant, I might add.
But, he's A GIANT WOOLLY MAMMOTH!
So that's good enough. And he has a killer slashing tusk and opposable trunk gimmick.

But inside that brick is one of the best Optimus Prime figures OAT! His head is amazing. With flip out horn wings. Articulation is good. Opening chest with removable/holdable Matrix. Flip out cop batons. His gun IS cumbersome, but the figure is the tanuki nuts!

The give is, you gotta deal with the fact that, wherever Big C brings it. He brings it cool. I mean ICE COLD!
SO! He's always rockin' his wooly mammoth fur pimp coat. With giant tusk shoulder pads!
Deal witdit! He does.

He's a kibble fest. But. He wears it well, and he can support it all.

If you can find one. Get one! I promise YOU, would like him.
I found him in an import shop in L.A. ****! 20 years ago? 18? 8-} I payed a normal premium for him then. I fear he pulls a pretty penny.
But the mold is AMAZING, and all the decos I've seen are sweet.

I mean look at Ultra Mammoth! He's peacockin'!

I gotta say, Big Black is undoubtedly Big Pimpin' in all his kibble and woolly glory, Cobo! Being back in black may help tie it all together to make him look even more imposing.

That Big Cannon is REALLY BIG lol -- but seriously, he really does carry it all well.

Ultra Mammoth looks sharp, too -- but Big Black can act the part of smooth criminal: Nemesis Prime, like the Universe incarnation....

Ultra Mammoth is easily one of the best names ever. That'd be my version of the mold to get, but I'm a little bit of an UM fanboy. :x

In recent years I had the opportunity to pick him up for less than $80. Now he's over $100. Booooooooooo.

FYI - the Sono King Korean release of Big Convoy can still be found NIB for a reasonable price. He comes in the traditional brown mammoth deco, but robot mode deco is exquisitely Primey.

BEHOLD!

The blood on the tusks is really cool, as well as the other, different paint apps....but you can resist CARY (not Cobo Kai!)!

Cram's $80 deal would've been good, but since BW is still not climbing in popularity, there's still a chance to get it for less than $100 (loose), right?

I saw this loose one for $120:
https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F142640234735

MISB is $150ish....

The one with Prime's red, white & blue should be cheaper though -- fortunately, all of dem gots Big Woolly Style!

EDIT again:
Wow, Cobo's deal for $50 at Toyarena.com is NOICE ;)^
