Look what has shown up....Small pic, and obvious still a work in progress...but word is this may be getting mass produced? I do know that the trailer will be able to create a combined mode that would be somewhere between 12-14 inches... assuming that the fans would want a pricy add on for a pricy exclusive....

I guess if none of the bots are damage in combine mode...

[Dead Metal]

Seibertron.com member enclinedesigns shared with us the following, small, yet intriguing image. The image is of Botcon Animated Motormaster's alt-mode equipped with a blacked-out trailer.

He also tells us that the trailer will be able to combine with the Animated Stunticons to form a combined form of about 12 - 14 inches in hight.

However, there is no confirmation of this actually coming out yet, but it does look awfully familiar to the original teaser images of the upcoming Make Toys RTS G2 Optimus Prime trailer.
What ever it is, we'll keep you updated!

[Captziltoid]

oh wow. if you can use this add-on trailer to make menasor that would be sweet. i was always kinda hoping that somebody would make the full trailer for optimus too but this too damn cool. mos def a good thing.

[Tigertrack]

I would love to see more on this. If done correctly it could be super-sweet.

[grimdragon2001]

this is an exciting thing to see. hope its worth getting

[WolfDawg]

Saw this coming a mile away. I really hope it's worth getting though...I was sort of hoping Fansproject would be the ones to tackle this undertaking...

For now I'm excited, but skeptical. Glad I got these guys while I did. If this trailer/combiner turns out to be as epic as FP Bruticus, the price of the Botcon Stunticons will be astronomical!

[joevill]

Wow! This is exciting! I can't wait to see how it turns out. I may have to get it.

[Midnight_Fox]

I'll be getting it if it's released, but I won't use the combined mode until we know 100% if it damages the figs.

So, who's getting it to make Optimus, Jazz, Rodimus, Arcee, and Lockdown combine?

I do know that it will be designed to incorporate all the figs with out damage. That is a really important aspect of this piece. Can't have something that requires mods or damage to rare figs!

[Counterpunch]

Not to be a party pooper, but isn't the point with Animated to have individual characters with lots of personality?

Wouldn't wrapping them up in a combiner essentially strip them of all that character that went into their development?

Just asking...

[Blitz krieg]

not if the combiner form happens to have its own mind and personality sperate from the minds and personalities of the individual cybertronians who form it

one such way to keep the mind and personality of the combiner from falling victim to the psychological and mental flaws of the individuals who form the combiners physical body would be to equip the combiner with a headmaster partner who would theirself house the mind and personality of the combiner being in their own body but with the mind and personality of the combiner being kept mentally seperated from the mind and personality of the headmaster parter's person.

but with the combiner being a headmaster enhancced combiner it would be possible for the combiner to fully posess his own mind and personality independent of the minds and personalities of the individual cybertronians who form the combiners physical body

while the headmaster partner would form the combiners entire head he would only provide the combiner form with its own mind and personality seperate from that persons mind but with there still being a limited degree of shared control between the combiner and the individual cybertronians who form his body. with the combiner being able to draw on the memories and life experinece of the individual cybertronians who form his body without falling victim to any one members mental or psychological flaws in doing so


in a manner of speaking the combiner's mind and personality would live and experieince life through each of the individual cybertronians when they are their own seperate persons when not combined

and while the team are in combiner form when the combiners own midn and personality has awakened and is active he would be able to draw on those experiences as his own person

basicly for the combiners mindand pesonality he would in a way be asleep but would still be able to learn and experieince anything for himself that the individual wrekcers learn and experieince for theirselves when they are in their individual forms

in its way it would be lik a person living part of each day of their life in a dream state during the time the individual members of the combiner team are their own individual persons when they are not in their shared combiner form.

but during this time the combiners mind and personality would still be throughly aware of the deviding line that seperates dream from reality and when the combiner team members combine to form their super warrior combiner body when the combiners mind and personality awakens he would be able to use what he have learned during dream time experieince in real life in real time reality

Eh, not interested in spending 100's of dollars for a animated Mensaor. This is great for Animated collectors, but it is very specific... not sure it's a smart idea or investment for such a limited set, and a limited amount of collectors.


also, how about we stop announcing projects, until other projects are finished. I bought a RTS Optimus specifically for the trailer upgrade set. So let's get that done, then talk about othe3r trailers.


The 3rd party companies are starting to get annoying with "future" releases. Where are the "past" releases. Hell where is the WFC upgrade sets for prime and Megs that we saw protos of?

Or am I the only one who hates announcements before it's decided it will even come out.

[Flux Convoy]

I'm finding it hard to care about this. Unless it's amazing what's the point? Really, are we expecting amazing things from this? Think real hard about how you'd make those molds become knees and elbows. I love third party stuff done right but I'm not able to imagine that's what we'll see here. I'd love to be wrong.

[Blitz krieg]

the headmaster equiped combiner could furhter optimize its data gathering/ data processing abilities by adding a additonal member to the combiner team. when combined with the other members of the combiner team to form the combiners physical body. this member of the team would form the heavily armored flying wing styled armored chest and breastplate armor for the combiners upper torso

basicly the combiners mind/personality and the team members who form the head core body and breastplate armored chest would share joint control over the full combiner body where datagathering/data processing is concerned while the other team members would still have their minds active in a sort of seperated repressed state kept seperate from thecombiners mind and personality

but with this trio examining and processing all the audio and visual data gathered through the minds optics and audio sensors of the team members who form the combiner body's arms and legs

in doing this it would make it possible for theteam members who form the core body the armored chest and the head of the combiner body to more easily confer with each other mentally and then passing that info along to thecombiners mind/pesonality whos mind would be kept seperate from the minds/personalities of the other team members but with the data/rpocessing/data gathering trio serving as the go betwen for the 4 limb members of the team and the mind/personality of the combiner to keep him informed vie interautobot radiof the limb members thoughts pertaining to the matter while at the same time it makes it possible for the 4 limb members to pull double duty as living sentient power up armor

[Blitz krieg]

it being in its way a hybrid of headmaster technology when it comes to the headmaster partner being the headmaster component member of the combiner team

brainmaster tech when it comes to the fact that the combiner would exist as its own person mentally and psychologically speaking while at the same time experiencing life through the individual members of the combiner team

and transtector tech when it comes to the fact that the combiners own personality/mind would be in full 1oo percent control of the actual combiner body super warrior form

but with it also being a kind of shared joint control as well when it coems to the data processing and information gathering aspect of the combiner tech as well

as a 7 member combiner team the combiners own mind and personality would technically count as a 8th member of the the team

Rumor is... Menasor sneak pics coming soon!

and a few details..

The Trailer will NOT damage the figures.

It is being designed by guys who are HUGE fans and want to make something they can put on their shelf and be proud of.. It will be very G1 and Animated.

I am intrigued.

[Doctor McGrath]

I'm interested to see more but I have my doubts.

[Leader_Ultra_Magnus]

My heart is beating a little faster now.

If they can pull this off, I will have a total toygasm

[Kibble]

This could be interesting...and even if not, it should at least improve resale value of this set even more. If it goes the way of Shattered Glass, I think I'd be willing to sell off my set...unless this add-on is mind blowing. Then I'll jusy happily keep it.

[Sabrblade]

I've hunch this won't include Toxitron into the mix. He's an Animated Stunticon too.

They haven't forgot Toxitron:)

[Downbeat]

Great, now I have to get all the stunticons AND this set.
