Having trouble finding the Transformers Deluxe Class Movie Trilogy Series Optimus Prime Figure with Trailer? The figure has been listed on HasbroToyShop.com for $29.99.

OPTIMUS PRIME has traveled across the universe, and fought alongside many great and noble warriors. Throughout it all, he has relied on his own private arsenal. It is a collection of the most powerful weapons in the universe, built up over centuries. It has seen him through some of the most dangerous and devastating battles in the history of the cosmos. It's the ultimate in AUTOBOT power! Your OPTMIUS PRIME figure hauls a trailer that converts to a MECHTECH armory - and can store a stash of up to 7 MECHTECH weapons! (Weapons sold separately.) Switch this robot hero figure from Robot Mode to Truck Mode and back again, depending on his battle strategy. Whatever his enemies have in store, this bot's determined to destroy them, and he's going to be unstoppable. Contains robot figure and trailer.

I just spotted about three of these at my local Wal-Mart SuperCenter in Lexington, NC last night. Not sure of the price, but it's probably in league with HasbroToyShop.com's price, but without the shipping cost.

I would've mentioned that I "sighted" them on the "Sightings Product List," but it's not listed.

Anyone know any working coupon codes for HTS.com?

[Flakmaster]

Now that is a more reasonable price!
Hopefully stores like Wal-mart and target will give this guy a permanent 'price drop' after a little while. So far all we've been seeing is $30 for this guy.

Ack, drat. toys'R'us sucks. They haven't even been getting any exclusives worth paying their arm-and-leg prices for.

[RiddlerJ]

If it came with a bunch of weapons, I'd snatch this up. As it is. I can't get too excited about an empty box that unfolds.

[At0mic Cav3man]

See now, if I hadn't lucked into finding DotM Ultimate OP returned and repackaged at Target for $17.50, I'd have probably picked this guy up, because I didn't have an OP with a trailer. As it is though, the Ultimate OP is awesome (for the price I paid anyway) and I feel no need to ever take him outta alt mode.

Not to mention, I really didn't like the Deluxe versions of OP. They just looked kinda crappy and there's no real hook there to make me wanna buy them. As Riddler J said, if this came with a bunch of Mech Tech weapons stored in his trailer, this might be a different story.

Does anyone know if the trailer will attach any other Primes?

^^This. Anyone wanna hook him up to Voyager Classics Prime or any of the TFP Primes please?

[At0mic Cav3man]

Come to think of it, if his trailer is at least size compatible with Classics OP, I may have some interest in this toy. If nothing else, at least it's a deluxe figure I don't have at all with a trailer that may or may not be compatible with the freaking 6 voyager OP's I have.

I still haven't seen this one in retail yet.

[GuyIncognito]

My biggest complaint is that it looks like the exact same Deluxe OP that was released as a Walmart exclusive, and which I already have. I'd gladly pay $15 for the trailer alone, but I hate to have to buy a copy of a figure I already have just to get the trailer. If they just repainted OP, this would be a must-buy for me.

I don't really mind that the trailer doesn't really do anything. I'd pay more if it did, but as it is I would still like to have it for display purposes.

[Noideaforaname]

$25 is a nice price, but I already have the regular release which actually has more paint aps (which is a scary thought considering how light it is in that department).

It'd be nice if it came with some weapons, especially now that it has someplace to store them now. I guess it'd not be so much of an issue if you already got a lot of figures with MechTech, but the only other ones I have (Megatron, Shockwave, Air Raid) are so vital to the respective bots' images (in both modes, to boot) that tossing them in Optimus's trailer doesn't do anything for me.

[Hip-Hoptimus Rime]

Want. I have the original Walmart Dlx OP, so I'll take this one and mix/match parts to make one I like.

Seriously, any good HTS codes, like free shipping?

[triKlops]

saw this on my store rounds yesterday
3 each at 2 TRUs,34.99
3 each at multiple WMs & (T)s for 29.99

looks cool but no MechTech weapons and the same mold as the WM exclusive kept me away
i have Ultimate Prime anyway, so my need for a trailer is minimal

[Tranzilla]

I would have at least liked a Leader Class with a similar trailer, only able to be opened from the side and a ramp for the back. Also have stations where they could fit Deluxe Class Wreckers and come with a brute mode Leadfoot.

Kitbash anyone?

[faraohseth]

Am I missing something? It's listed on HTS for $29.99, not $24.99.

I think it said $24.99 this morning, but there wasn't even a picture associated with the listing, so it looked like it had just been entered into the computer. Now there are photos with the listing, and it looks like may have updated the price. The $24.99 price may have just been a mistake or typo.

[Megatron Wolf]

better price than what we've seen but still dont think its worth it, $14 for a trailer that doesnt do anything is kind of a rip off.

[RiddlerJ]

I keep saying they need to sell weapon or accessory packs. I would even pay the additional money to help soup up my figures, but I don't want to have to pinch from one to arm another.

[Rodimus Prime]

I also saw 3 of them at my Walmart yesterday morning. As for the trailer going with different Primes, it's in perfect scale with TFP Deluxe Prime. Looks awesome as well, the only thing out of place is the wheels. The trailer has plain black wheels while Prime has silver on his.

HTS has updated the listing since this morning when I initially posted this. The price is now $29.99.

...plus 30$ of Fedex shipping + tax.

Yeah... Totally worth it. Somehow, I don't want to buy over 200$ of stock from HTS to recoup the shipping cost.
