It looks like it's at a weird angle attached to Henkei Convoy. I'd like to see more pics.
But I AM impressed that it includes a Powermaster figure. I was not expecting that.

I'd like to see it in color before I make a final decision, but this has kinda swayed me. If the price is reasonable, I might actually buy it. If not, considering it's Xovergen...eh, pass.
I didn't care much for the robot mode, but that was also incomplete and didn't have finishing touches.
I'm impressed.

Thus far i love how it looks, need to see it painted and assembled plus the price is important for me.

I don't want to be a hater, but this looks like a turd. I hate, I hate, I hate. Its ugliness makes my head hurt.

As a customizer, I've recognized some stolen goods. First, on the back of the trailer, you can see the oversized WFC KO double jointed knees, and, I'm pretty sure, those are TFX-03 City Commanders shoulder launchers with gun barrels instead of rockets. I'm goin back to look at more pics to see just how much of this is original design...

Yea, the missile launchers are really similar, but it looks like the barrels extend for bot-mode.
If oyu take a look at the bot-mode, you can see that the double-jointed kneees are in fact the bot-mode arms.
But looking at the bot-mode again, it looks like the legs transform similar to WFC Prime's legs.

I do like the detail on it, but still not wowed. Judging by the bot mode, I don't think I will be.

Judgement is reserved until I see the final product. Unlike many I liked their Patriot Commander or whatever he was called. The green one got the head swap and is now a homage to Big Shot.

The Powermaster is a nice touch but like I said before...This guy looks like a piece of crap in bot mode. Trailer mode I admit look kinda nice but I'll reserve that judgement till I see it in colour.
Oh btw to those who is asking for a reasonable price? Are you joking? All 3rd party stuff are ALL unreasonable. The only reason people buy them is because they know HasTak wont ever make them in the near future. For crying out loud Hercules cost 500$++. That is the price of 10 Leader class. I can assure you this guy would cost atleast 100$. So yeah have fun with that xD.
PS : And if you think 100$ is reasonable, think again. 100$ for a trailer that can become a MP-sized bot,in which case it doesnt even have a Leader class's quality standard.

I liked Grand Patriot, too. Mine's using the alt head and is now playing the part of Classics Bulkhead(he's a big green military grade vehicle, it made perfect sense to me).

Between getting a G3 trailer for classics Prime, a City Commander trailer for classics Ultra Magnus, and a Tanker trailer for G1 Optimus (Nemesis) Prime, as well as stickers from repolables, I think I'm gonna be down about $300. I also plan on grabbing a Defender, Scouting FOrce, and whichever 3rd party Arcee I can find. Maybe about $500 right there. Unless HasTak comes out with a classics Springer and Arcee soon then that sounds about right. Too much money for things like these. Eh, I can make more and spend it again. That's how the economy works!

Legitimate question here - Is your constant bashing against all 3rd party products due to their price, quality, the fact that they're not Has/Tak or something else?

I don't hate this, but I also lack any burning desire to own it.
I skipped out on the last tank-Prime GI Joe crossover they did, though it looked OK as well.
If I trip over a stack of hundred dollar bills, I'd consider it.

Same here, I only balked on Patriot because most vendors were forcing us to buy both versions.

Never understood the appeal of PM OP in the first place, and this isn't helping to sway those thoughts. It's just a big hollow piece of Robot that you're suppose to stuff another folded up block of a robot inside of. True that's been done by a lot of other super robots and they tend to be awesome, but PM Prime pulled it off the worst in my opinion. I do have a G1/G2 Optimus that's not held up to well and it would be nice for him to see some use in active duty again, but not as a part of something like this...
Next!
Next!
