Just arrived today. D.I.A. Commander trailer/armor coming soon. And yes, since the G1 trailer doesn't fit at all, I'll definitely be getting the Fansproject Trailer in the near future. Meanwhile, my search for the right Prime for me, is over:

With the jet back pack from the Matrix Upgrade(too bad I can't fit the Matrix into his chest somehow)
Image

Truck mode:
Image

"Super Mechtech Mode" with backpack and more guns
Image

"Super Mechtech Mode" from a slightly different angle
Image

with energon axe and sword
Image

Battle mode with energon axe and sword (admittedly, the sword was pilfered from DOTM Thundercracker)
Image

I really wanted the G1 trailer to work with this and I could modify it to do so, but since the G1 trailer already works with the slight mod done to my Voyager Prime, I will display it with that one separately from the display of the Classics Henkei prime. This is an excellent quality figure. Looking forward to receiving the D.I.A. Commander and appreciate the tip on where to get it for $119!!! :BOT:

I've been thinking about getting this guy myself. I have 2 Classics Nemesis Primes (one wears the Shadow Commander armor, the other wears the TAW Sword Armor). The mold is pure gold, and the only representation I have of Prime in my CHURG collection is the deluxe 2 pack Prime. It'd also be nice to have the Voyager Prime to shake hands with Protector Armor Rodimus. Right now he's shaking hands with the TAW Armor Nemesis Prime, lol.

I think you have just convinced me to get Voyage Prime!

He's awesome. The D.I.A Commander trailer/armor comes at week's end. The Voyager Prime I have is now compatible with my G1 Trailer, so I think I'm done with the Prime's for now.

Thanks. The fun will continue when I get the PE-03 backpack, the War Axe, a couple swords, and more guns. :-)

Yes indeed I did. But it's even better than that. I started collecting Transformers in the 80's as a teenager, around the time I started playing guitar in metal bands. I came out of retirement in 2007 to start my come back and collecting transformers is part of retracing my steps to regain what I lost when I gave up the music to get married and have kids. Divorced in 2000. Kids live in Mississipi with their mom. So I'm back to finding myself and here we are. AWESOME!! I have a thread in the third party forum that shows this Classic Henkei with the D.I.A. Commander Armor (I still don't know what the "D.I.A." stands for. )

I feel you. I had some experiences I'm glad are behind me now and yes DIA Commander and Henkei Convoy marked the begining of my return to at least getting figures I liked. I hadn't bought a TF in almost 20yrs, I think.

I think its actually shortened for DIAclone - but I refer to it as meaning Defensive Iacon Armored Commando 8) 8) 8) because I'm planning to get that Autobot Special Forces or Wreckers insignia for himImageImageImage
