    Hi guys,

    Since I have been away for a while, I have been cooking this project doing bit by bit. Have been busy with the new arrival in the family, but I couldnt pass up the chance to do this.

    Okay, so, here goes, its complete.

    Now, the question on everyone's mind... does it transform? So, here is the answer to your question by showing the alternate mode first. The trailer is of course detached in Bot mode as per the G1, but I would consider that as being reasonable.

    Wow; that thing is big. Looks heavy, too. I like the colors used; there's no doubt that this is the guy who killed Prime. :) 
    Just saw the robot mode two seconds after I posted. Well done!

    Are you using Cybertron Optimus Prime's "trailer" in this along with a City Commander set? Also, where did you get the trailer for Ultra Magnus?

    Thanks for the comments.

    Trikeboy, the build uses 3 trailers. Cybertron Prime and Armada and you're right. That is a city commander at the top of the trailer. All were moded.

    Regarding the UM trailer, thats the one made by Dreamtoys. Limited release but I couldnt find it anywhere. Then I was fortunate to trade with someone on another forum.

    I really like the legs and head but the arms look a bit skimpy. And I don't see an elbow joint anywhere. I think I would have liked him to be a bit beefier, but overall you did an amazing job.

    :jawdropper:  Wow. Just....wow. Fantastic against all your other customs. It comes across a little chunky in the alt mode, but that's really how it should be, a mobile platform, disguised as a futuristic trailer. I even love the gun you gave him.
