YES! I was very worried that it wouldn't get made due to XOvergen's continued silence. I enjoyed their Powermaster Trailer, so I have high hopes for this set.

So that's the apex armour.... Hmmmm

Really liked Trailerforce, so I'm definitely in for this. But what happened to their powermaster cab? I want the whole thing complete.

Tasty!

If it's anything like the original, a small trailer that attaches to the back of Trailerforce somehow. Don't see any wheels, but this is only the front view.

Yeah, that looks pretty good...

Oh, right. So no alt mode playability unless you want to tow it behind Prime's trailer?

Shame because he looks like a nice 'bot!

You can't really call it a trailer, it looks more like random weapons, robot and armor parts piled on-top of a set of weals.

And so does the original robot


But then again, that was all he was in the show, just armor and weapons for Ginray with a transport mode, and a robot-mode because why the f**k not.

So this thing here is a million times better, at least robot-mode wise.

And the headmaster juniors rode in the front of it at times, sort of like a truck cab. But robotmel's point is taken. Playability all on its own isn't great.

Oh I wasn't defending it, just poking fun at it.

I never rely cared for alt-mode playability, I'm only in this for robot-modes. Heck I don't even care for individual combiner team members, to me they're all just body-parts and the real deal is their combined robot.

I really need to finish that series. Both that and Victory I started but never got around to the final 15 or so episodes.

You're missing this beautiful moment then

I didn't think the first Xovergen Trailer force was that popular among fans. So to create a second attachment called God Bomber for this set is odd.

They'd planned to do it from the beginning, it was even previewed on the first one's packaging.

I don't know how well it actually sold, but I bought one. I'm still not sure if I'll be getting this or not. It depends on how it looks in combined mode (I was always more a fan of Powermaster Optimus Prime than God Ginrai).

I'm fairly certain it sold out. I've looked plenty of places and can't find one in stock(I want one, but didn't decide on it until it had already been released).

Combined mode.

That looks bad-ass.

Hot damn that looks nice.

I thought this was an add on set. I see a totally new figure without the need for a classics prime in the chest ? If I am wrong, why did they make another grey prototype of the trailer body when it already exists in color ? Wouldnt it make more sense to just show the add on set in grey on a color figure so we know what comes with the god bomber set ?

This will also come in black to match Vindicator

I quite agree. I'm sorely tempted to pick these up now. I thought the trailer mode was lacking initially, but with the addition of this add-on, Powermaster/God Ginrai (or however one chooses to call him) looks awesome enough in bot mode to nearly remove hesitations about the trailer mode.

I think the God Bomber set covers the cavity so much that the prime underneath might be completely covered. If this is the case, and it isn't completely necessary to have a prime in the middle, I may like this set even more...

[Edit] Hrm...it doesn't look like BBTS carries this?

No, they don't, but ToyArena does (or at least they carried the first one) as do several other online retailers.
