    Obsession

    If you have Leader Prime, Ultimate is a must for the Trailer. We just throw the crappy little Prime that comes with it in the toy bin.

    He is different. He has dark-gray molded plastic instead of the blue. It might sound stupid, but it actually helps hide the jet-attached-to-robot-thing in jet mode.

    Doesn't the trailer ride really weird on the Leader hitch? I thought I remembered seeing pictures of them connected and the trailer being at a very awkward angle with the forward wheels not touching the ground.

    Looks there have been some cancellations on BBTS for this. Pre-order is back up.

    Looks cool with the new gun and battle shield but the two tones of gray used is a bit of a disappointment, along with no silver or chrome paint apps. I'll be going with the Buster Prime re-release with Jetfire two-pack for my first and only Leader Prime kick; I only need one (to stay mostly in alt mode since DMK Prime will be my default bot mode Prime).

    Wow, that thing is awesome. The stealth mode with the Jetwing parts attached is a thing of beauty! Quick question: Would anyone of you buy a KO set of Jetwing parts and stealth mode parts?

    I was just thinking about canceling my preorder too. Especially since I'd rather have that giftset with the real Buster Prime. I'll admit the new gun(s) and shield are really awesome though :eek:

    they're not going to release buster prime in the states, takara-tomy is a Japanese version of Hasbro, and Hasbro won't release buster prime in north america.

    I hate to say it but I canceled my pre-order. I like it but I really want a buster version more so than stealth force.

    What would be really awesome would be if Hasbro released both this set and the jetpack set (can't remember its name) together, along with a Buster Prime (or at least a normal Prime with the Buster paint job).

    The Buster version is sweet. But I need a DOTM Prime and this fits the bill perfectly. I love the whole Stealth Force idea. Shield is a little funky but I will try to find someone who has it a little cheaper.

    It does if you transform it the way that the instructions tell you to do it. Fortunately, you can tuck the arm armor up into the trailer more and get great clearance.

    Check it out!
