not digging robot mode. They should pass on that mode and just have the trailer with a battle station flip out thing.

I just love how raw it looks :twisted: Like you can hear metal grind just by looking at it!

I'm looking for some cheap Prime trailers though. I wanna try my hand at some customs. I want one filled with guns that can flip up somewhat so waring bots can duck behind it and just stay armed as they fight.

I'd like to build it using G1 and G2 parts, but pair it with Classics Prime.

FP & C'd. Thats a great find. I tried an online translator to get something out of the post, but it made no sense in any translation. I tried Japanese, Chinese traditional and Simplified, but the characters were repetative and the translation made no sense whatsoever.

Cool pic...but I'm betting it's just a fan made thing...the cab is all red- not flamed out like movie Prime's altmode...

If it turns out to be real I will NOT eat my collection...

Cool, I got front paged.

But yeah everyone, heed that disclamer! This is just something I found on their site while looking for info on some of their upcoming releases.

I for one love the work these people are doing, and look forward to supporting there products in hopes that they can one day soon bring us something this cool!

Still, unless someone can translate the page, all I know is that it's a sketch I found :-?

It's definitely fan made. That's what these guys do.

Those sketches do look pretty cool. I got the Cliffjumper kit and it's awesome. If they keep up the same quality as that, and are able to get their stuff out to consumers easier, they're going to make a killing.

Looks so complicated. If it were an add on, i bet it'd be a b to transform. and from the pic, it looks that you'd have to take it apart and put it somewhere on the robot. that makes it kinda less impressive.

I'm guessing fan made thing.

It's still impressive though, but considering the movie was going for a realistic look then the trailer wouldn't fit that style.

looks fan made and it wouldnt make no sense if prime would decide to have trailer in the second film and not the first one prime would have taken a trailer in the first one if it was ment to be having a trailer just popup out of no where and not see it in the first one wouldnt make to muasch sense to character.

but the first one did have alot of surprises in it so i will be surprised if it makes in the film & not fan cration i see jet engins in back of trailer

Looks cool to me. Having the trailer combine with the cab is a nice way to update Prime's look in robot mode. Reminds me a lot of Powermaster Prime only without Hi-Q and a lot more complicated looking. Too bad it's probably just fan art.

It looks pretty cool and reminds me a little of the Cybertron Prime with the guns on his arms. Minus the cab part that looks like wings. I like it though!

For the love of god please be true. Prime needs a trailer again.

since I'm sure nobody will bother to glance at this unless I do THIS, here goes *deep inhale* :

THIS IMAGE HAS BEEN FLOATING AROUND ON TFCLUB FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW, SO IT'S PROBABLY NOTHING MORE THAN A FAN IMAGE. IN FACT, THERE IS ANOTHER IMAGE ON THE SITE IN A SIMILAR ART STYLE OF 4 ROBOTS MADE TO RESEMBLE THE GUARDIAN CREATURES OF THE CARDINAL DIRECTIONS, NORTH SOUTH EAST AND WEST

Thank you :)

I like this, but I don't especially care for combining him with his trailer (along the lines of Armada Prime, Powermaster Prime, and...uh...I think maybe Star Convoy. (Correct me if I'm wrong but that's how it looks when I look Star Convoy up on Action-HQ.)
I kind of agree about needing a trailer though. Leader class Movie Prime could have had one at least, IMO. Using the trailer to form a sort of gestalt or super mode for Prime is just getting kind of redundant for me though.

My only problem with that line of thinking is that in the first one, they landed quick and went right into action. Wouldn't it stand to reason that by time TF2 rolls around, he'd have had enough time to develope something like this out of both bordome and nesecity?

Or are ye expecting the exact same designs in TF2 :roll: I can tell you right now that won't happen cause it'll sell less toys.

OK, is there a point to that all though, or are you just stating that a site has more than one piece of concept art?

Well... my initial feeling is that it might be fanmade.
The reason is that there's no aero on top (that curvy thing that makes the wind go up over the trailer).
But that don't mean anything.

My gut feeling is...
Ultra Magnus!!!

Seriously, folks, take a look at that armor.
Note the guns and exaggerated pauldrons/shoulders.
Now picture it with blue and white.

Tell me that's not a Bay-ified Magnus.

(I can dream, can't I?) :roll:

EDIT:
Ran a few translators.
WorldLingo says:
The weapon and spraying engine packing box Pi Renxing the condition is protects the armor, the aircraft carrier prestige has moved.
Is I uses the camera as for third to rescreen in the family an old picture background is 15 years ago on my small time room wall
wall pastes at least fills on my picture that wall to be possible to distinguish has a picture is OP that is I 6 7 year old of or smaller time picture OP

this OP right leg also energyVaguely distinguished " supporting-heaven pillar " three character “to hold up the " character to on just preschool's children was character at that time I who difficult to write

BabelFish is pretty much the same thing.
There's a slight difference, though...

Sounds like a guy wrote fan art of Prime.
But, again, that's just me.

I'm still holding out for an Ultra Magnus prototype.

Actualy(and correct me if I'm wrong) but the movie line is the first line in a long time that hasn't had a Magnus repaint.

I'd like to see it stay that way though, but a add on for Prime, even that tanker thats always on Ebay would be nice. After all they did go through the trouble of adding a hitch port :-?

The detail work is incredible, but the overall look and idea is terrible. I would hope that this remains a fanmade thing and not an actual piece for TF2. If Prime has to have a trailer, I'd prefer it would be a mobile storage container for Ironhide's weaponry.

SWEET! I repeat, sweet! If that is real concept art then I'm sure some people be happy campers seeing as that Prime doesn't have flames anymore.
