    The trailer's too short. Nice effort, but I think I'll pass.

    I would like to have seen a trailer for Optimus.

    Holy crap!

    If the upgrade kit is easily available and doesn't cost too much, I'll probably bite.

    Except these upgrade kits have a habit of being hard to find and crazy expensive outside of the small stuff like bt arming and others.

    Wow. I'll buy that!


    A nice update of the original trailer. Car carrier with missilies stuck on the front? No! Armoured personel carrier!


    A nice nod to the animated version, and great homage to G1 UM; awesome in both modes.

    On ebay they are crazy expensive, you can pick the cliffjumper kit up from yahoojapan for $30-40 instead of 300-400 like on ebay

    Ah there it is. Looks promising. I dont care as much for G1 accuracy in its trailer/alt mode, just as long as it can store cars and the color scheme is cool.

    That will be a $1000 please sir!

    its okay but I'm not going overboard about it, on closer inspection it limits articulation and it cant hold a gun as yet.

    $30 game on any more than that and its a pass for me

    Well has anyone been able to get a hold of the cliffjumper set? I had bid 250 bucks on that upgrade set only for it to jump to 4 or 500 and then get pulled from Ebay. Is it gonna be that hard to get a hold of this set aswell?


    Does anyone know where these guys operate from or if they have an online or physical store?
