Fans Project G3 Trailer Update - Weapon Set

Posted by Mkall Feb 23, 2009 at 11:23pm CST 23,654 views
FansProject has once again posted pictures showing us aspects of their G3 Trailer for Classics\Henkei Optimus Prime. This time the pictures depict the weapons that are most likely going to be part of the set.

There are certain things of note here, a shoulder missile-style weapon that appears to fit on Sunstreaker/Sideswide as well as what looks like a missile for Classics Mirage.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

FP&C'd, thanks for the heads up.

Very interesting to see the missiles being added into the set.

Finally, a proper sword for Classics Grimlock, no more of that stupid bayonet thing.

I think the decision to choose between this set or the BTS trailer set has just gotten tougher.

It's definitely for hound, but in his alt mode only. The space between the tab and the barrel are too far apart to clip onto his shoulder. Maybe it also doubles as a handheld gun.

Wow, clearly I posted my note on this right as they were updating these images. With the whole set as part of the G3 package, this is becoming the must buy trailer for COP. I knew when BTS posted that Nemisis Prime trailer image that FP would quickly respond.

I can't wait to see more-hopefully soon.

I'm still on the fence RE which set to buy. Leaning towards Fansproject's simply because City Commander was such an awesome product. This weapon pack helps too, although I already have weapons for Bumblebee from the CJ upgrade set, and weapons for Mirage and Sideswipe from the kit with Inferno's ladder and the Autoscout.

Between this and iGear's autoscout, the need/desire for the TFClub Gear of War set has pretty much vanished...They're getting outdone all across the board...All that's left is the ladder, and it's in no way worth the price alone...And now that I HAVE Inferno, I really don't even feel like he NEEDS a ladder anymore...

Sorry TFClub...I really mean that...

You know, I have to wonder which 3D solid modeling program they're using here. Reminds me of SolidWorks, but might be Inventor or Catia. Anyone else know?

It's to represent that in jeep mode he actually had an army style machine gun in back, not the missile launcher. Looks like it's also got a hand peg so it can be used as his handgun instead of the missile.

Like I said, the gun is for his alt mode.
