Movie Battle-Damaged Voyager Prime Auction And Pictures

Sheesh. I'd settle for seeing at least 1 voyager. I'm getting to the point where I'll grab one now and want of of the 100 others that come out later. lol.

I'll admit, not looking too bad for a movie Prime.

My apologies to kirbenvost for missing his thread about this, before I started mine.

So wait, is this a custom or mass release?

Either way, I'm not to intrested and this guy should be shot for his shipping rates. Unless he packs his items in gold, mailing this and a box should only be $9 realisticy. I just sent a 7lbs box out yesterday and it wasn't even $10

Hah, no worries, mine wasn't exactly in a news-friendly format. I just saw it over at Tformers.com and figured we heard about it awhile ago. They mirrored the gallery too, so I got the same news through a different avenue.

im guessing that box is going to me you are one swell guy and to answer your question i think they made a voyager battle damage optimus prime.and this is a little bit off topic but i won an auction for the argos exclusive op and bb 2 pack and the guy charged me $40 for shipping its was origanally $20 with no insurance and no tracking and 2 weeks for delivery.with an additional $20 i get insured tracking number and deliverd in 5 days so well worth the extra $20.oh and i bought it for a total of $130 thats shipping included.do you guys think i got a good deal?

As the photobucket account is called "heeromaker" I reckon that this is probably a custom

Says Prototype in the auction, and in his description. Even if English is not this seller's first language, don't you think he would have said, "My custom BD Prime..."?

It seems like he would to me, or it's an auction that needs to be described more accurately.

Judging from the crappy paint job, it looks like it could be official.

Just had a look at the guy's previous auctions and i take back what I said. Almost certainly the real deal. Soz

Not another battle damaged! Oh no!

toys imo dont need to look dirty thats the kids job to do when the parents buy them one.

God, I'm so sick of that retarded battle damage trend...

I doubt your 7lb box was sent oversea.

Yeah, it just looks like it's dirty with oil all over it. I said this before and i'll say it again, when they make battle damaged Transformers, they need to re-mold at least 2 or 3 parts with cracks and holes in the armor where you can see some inner workings(ie. wires, broken hydraulics, crushed skeletal structure), and maybe some bullet or laser holes. Do somthing besides just repainting some of the detail off of the figure, know what i mean.

Well, that's what they did with Jazz, he got a few remolded parts.

FUCKING GIVE US SOME NEW MOLDS THAT DONT SUCK ALREADY

Yeah but thats overseas, with an all around upgrade!

This guy is domestic, it's a big difference. I hate when Ebayer's try and make a further buck off inflatted shipping

I've sold on Ebay plenty of times, miscalculated shipping and never once asked for money, and on a couple of occasions sent the difference back.

And by the way, yes that is your box I shipped

And PS, your a dam good guy, but Evil people don't like being called swell

I misread and thought it was domestic, I stand corrected.

Honestly, it looks more like someone took Prime off-roading in mud as opposed to battle-damaged. If you look at it that way, it actually doesn't look bad...otherwise, meh.

yeah I remember seeing that this was coming out, I think I'll pass, I'm not big on the battle damaged stuff, I like my transformers to look clean as if they were just about o go into battle. not what thy look like after.. Even rocky showered and rested up before he publicly came back...

WTF!!! why is it all these darn variants have to be the Voyager Prime anyways!!! it's cheaper??

Can we just get a super metal finish, G-1 Prime repaint already!!!

skywarp-2 you are a genious

Cool toy for my collection

Blech.

Hasbro need to go have a look in our Kitbash forum to see what Battle Damage should look like.

I thought the Target Exclusive Robovision Prime was supposed to have 'super-metallic finish'?

Thats what Hasbro advertised it as, but it really is not anywhere near as Metallic-shiny as the pics Skywarp-2 posted.
To be honest he is not all that much shinier than the normal Voyager Prime.

robovision aint got nothing on that custom... the paint apps on the RV sucked hard, too.


the battle damaged prime looks like two-face or something.

WTF is that custom? That's the most beautiful TF of all times. It makes MP-01 look like a Happy Meal toy.

Where did you send to that 7 pounds cost less then 10$ was it with priority ?? .. I just sent two 3 pound packages from new jersey to california and they whacked me almost 11$ each for priority shipping.. I questioned the postmaster about that because the online lable printer said it was only 7.50 each .. I still think i got ripped off on those two

I think this prime got too my battle damage, looks like someone held him over a candle flame and like the black soot build up on him.. I'll stick with my clean robovision

This sucks. Ive seen much better voyagers around...why is this so special that it got front paged?

It's news. News gets front-paged.

Exactly, why is this "news"?

That was indeed the question i originally asked....

Every new release deserves to be frontpage. It's just common sense.

Double post.

Wait this is an official release? I thought it was just a fan-made custom?

Sonray wrote:This sucks. Ive seen much better voyagers around...why is this so special that it got front paged?

Because according to the auction, it's a prototype, not a custom.

Thus, we are reporting it. Enjoy.

I've been buying a lot of test shots from herotoysmaker and I don't recall the guy selling customs. So yeah, it has to be real.

Thanks for the confirmation!
