Interesting, wonder if this is the Powermaster upgrade for Classics OP I've heard rumor of. Obviously the OP in the teaser isn't Classics OP, but it could just be a stand in.

I've stated plenty of times recently that I love Powermaster Prime. Looking forward to see what this looks like!

From the look of this, it seem it go with Ginrai A.K.A Powermaster Prime. Will it be an update for the God Ginrai classic, or will it it be an O.C?

No matter what, I'm betting it will sell for a premium price. If they want my money, it better be something that I'll want WAY more than a MP-10.

Damn, more pixellation than a dirty japanese hentai.

Hopefully this will end up much better than the grand patriot.

That's what Blurrz wrote, based on the picture Xovergen provided, but there is no definite word on it actually being for G1 or PowerMaster Prime.
For all we know the pictured PM Prime in the pic is just a stand in, it might even come with it's own cab/robot section. The first pic we saw of their Grand Patriot was only of the robot, no alt-mode or trailer, those where revealed later.


Anyway, this looks interesting, but I'll wait for final images and actual information before I get too exited.

I hope that it is a Powermaster Prime redux - if ever a figure was crying out for a decent, modern toy without a gigantic head and stumpy arms, it is this one!

if I have to find another classics Optimus Prime...

That has got to be a Powermaster Prime cab blurred out in the pic, complete with Powermaster engine on the front. Single wheel set on the back of the tractor (instead of the double axle as in G1); hands visible at the back of the cab.



Maybe it's an upgrade to Powermaster Prime with better articulation? Depending on the price, I might consider as I have Powermaster Prime.

On the other hand, maybe it's for G1 as Blurrz indicated. However, the trailer connection points for G1 and Powermaster Prime are vastly different.

It doesn't have the iconic guns that were on PM Prime's trailer, maybe it's a different take on PM Prime? Or maybe the guns weren't finished when they took the pic and I'm just over speculating.

The a**hole who took the picture forgot to clean the lens.

some new photos:

so now we've got it attached to henkei convoy and MP-10... what next?

soooo, which is it. is it a powermaster upgrade, an upgrade for classics optimus, or a trailer for masterpeice?

I'd wager it's for Classics OP. The image with MP-10 says they were just foolin around, and I figure the first teaser with the G1 Powermaster cab was just to let fans know what type of upgrade we're looking at.

I thought Xovergen was dead...

This may interest me if it's for Classics OP, but I also can't help but wonder what became of the upgrades for WFC Meg and OP. I was interested in that primarily so I could have a WFC Megatron that could hold weapons.

I'd been hoping FansProject would tackle Ginrai. If Xovergen pulls this off well I'll be all over this like Unicron on Lithone, 'cos Powermaster Prime was one of my faves back when I was a kid....

I just hope Xovergen has learned and upped their quality 1000%

Same here..........

PLEASE BE A G1 Powermaster Prime upgrade!!!!! I would looooove to have articulation for what I think is the best combiner optimus!

I hope its for Classics Prime. I am currently watching the Masterforce cartoon (with English subtitles) and I would love a Classics Ginrai/Powermaster Prime. The Zeta Prime exclusive didn't look that great to me (and to expensive) so hopefully this will be better.

Personally,IMHO,It makes Zero sense to create 3rd party PMOP Trailer armor for the 1980's brick formers.

If I had my wish,this TF-01 PMOP Trailer Armor would be for the Takara MP-10 Convoy toy. or at the very least the classics 1.0 voyager optimus prime toy. or even ROTF HFTD voyager sized Optimus Prime.

I honestly don't want to see the 1984 optimus prime get transformed into a rubiks cube & placed inside the hollow torso section of the suit of armor trailer like the 1988 smaller truck cab/bot did. to me this would be cheating & look ridiculous.

I wanna see 3RD PARTY PMOP Trailer armor attached to MP-10 Convoy & for it to look in similar fashion to car robots Fire convoy. where the PMOP trailer breaks up into boots,forearms,back pack,waist plate. new head,new guns & so forth.

PLEASE let this be a Powermaster upgrade for Classics Voyager Prime! As someone else already mentioned, I too had been hoping Fansproject would tackle this concept, instead they repainted the City Commander set for pretty much any Classics Prime repaint one can dream of, but no love for Powermaster Prime. Come on, Xovergen, give me something badass and my money is yours.
