New Prototype Voyager Movie Optimus Prime on Ebay!
- Motto: "The Bigger The Buffet, The Better!"

A new auction for the upcoming movie's Voyager Optimus Prime has appeared on eBay.com thanks to prototype selling extrodinaire, SpxToys. Many of our viewers will recall that we have seen Voyager Optimus Prime before, in fact, Ryan already has a gallery of his prototype in our galleries here.
The newsworthy tid-bit here is that the prototype that SpxToys has is different from the one we have featured here. Here are some images for comparison:

The one on auction has flames on the front of the legs and gold detailing on the knees but is missing the red detail on the shoulders and blue on the hips and stomach.
I just noticed... the one on auction doesn't have flames on the roof of the cab but does have them on the front of the legs. Isn't the roof what becomes the leg fronts? How is that possible? Is he using images of 2 different prototypes?

It's possible that they do a prototype for each layer of paint app's that they are going to put on, so they can see it layer by layer and adjust accordingly. I bet some where there is a wharehouse of half painted tf's that will never see the light of day.

Edited for hilarity...

I talked about this in the other thread, so instead of retyping everything, I'll just cut-and-paste, tada :
what's all this about another paint-scheme for the Voyager Prime? Check out the pics over at TFW2005.com : http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=129307 and some really cool pics here: http://www.actoys.net/bbs/read.php?tid=175008
This one has flames on the front of his legs (though the roof of the truck - that is the part that makes the leg-knee-section - doesn't have any flames), no red detail on his shoulders, no blue detail on the top of his legs, the blue on his belly is replaced with red and the copper around the screws have been painted over red as well...
I hope that one isn't the final version, it's missing alot of the paint apps that make Ryan's Prime look like the actualy movie model. And this toy is already badly in need of paint detailing, there's no need to take away what little colours he has in bot mode.
Also, Ryan did you use the flash in your pics? 'Cuz the Prime in that second link look much brighter blue, I'm wondering what shade he has "in real life"...

So your telling me that there is a wharehouse out there with a frack load of rare prototype TFs? I now have a new mission in life, find that place and steal the figures. Who ever helps gets a cut of the figures ubtained.

It'll take much more than mere differences in paint to get me to buy that figure.

I had the same idea, so, here they are:

I think the mould works great for Nemesis, nos so much for Ultra-Magnus.
