One of the freaking best Optimus Prime toys ever made.

There are KO's off him out there, but the Original is freaking awesome.

it's a great figure, i feel like the mold really found it's identity with that paint scheme. I prefer Car Robots version with it's upside down autobot insignias, like inverted crosses.

I'd think you'd be able to find it for less than sixty though. There are legit korean versions of the Car Robots version. I got mine a couple years ago, I'm pretty sure I only paid between twenty and thirty. Ordered it alongside Megastorm from Robot Kingdom.

The Robots In Disguise Scourge is not that common. He's quite expensive, and $60.00 would probably be a good price, I'd guess.

The Car Robots Black Convoy is quite common (in either Japanese Takara original, or Korean Sonokong repack) and can be found for about $45.00 shipped on eBay.

The differences are that the red on Scourge (windows, sword) are darker and have a nice tint. Plus his sword is shorter. BC's windows and sword are pink, but the sword's longer.

Saw a Japanese Black Convoy for AU$120 a few months back, but couldn't justify that much money at the time. He sat in the store for a few months, all the while I had no spare money. Now I do, and of course it's no longer there.

Black Convoy is the superior version, but get whatever version you can I say.

liqdeal@yahoo.com is a seller on eBay and they seem to have quite a few of the Car Robots toys, including Black Convoy, for relatively cheap prices.

Feedback's pretty solid too.

I like the reissue much better than the original version. Scourge is great too. You can't really go wrong with either. The mold is one of the best IMO.
