    That looks so good, to bad I'm putting my transformers collecting on hold for 5 months to buy a skyline

    Not any G1 character I am aware of. It is always a bitter sweet moment when there is a new 3rd party item that I have no interest in.

    It's Powermaster Prime with the Apex Armor.

    The colors are photoshopped but it looks good so far.

    Anyone care to mirror the photos for those of us who can't/don't want to go to Facebook?

    depending on the QC I may buy this, I've been wanting a Power Master Prime upgrade for some time now.

    Yes; as thedreaded1 said, it's PM Prime armor that's compatible with the Classics mold, if memory serves.

    Looks promising - I see ankle joints. Though I have to ask - can anyone tell if the design uses the Classics Prime legs or not? If not, then it gives me something I can use my broken Henkei Convoy for...

    EDIT: Yeah; it's for Classics and G1 Prime.

    I have an extra still sealed Henkei Optimus that I've been hoping to use for something like this so my fingers are crossed.

    Actually it's without the Apex armor but maybe you could do something about that ;)

    Honestly, I can't really tell what's going on in that picture.
    It could be an upgrade to an existing toy or it could be an all new kit.

    I really think that all 3rd party companies should look at how Fansproject does its product reveals.

    Not touching anything of theirs with a 10 foot stick after their debut release of that craptacular Prime. This still doesn't look that promising.

    I should have clarified. This is not a G1 character that appeared in the show. We all have our collecting rules and that is my major rule. On screen characters only.

    I hope this set does well for Xovergen seeing as there first release did not receive a warm welcome.

    But for myself I have too much to buy this year so easy cuts are welcome.

    Looks cool, but I hope it will be better than their less-than-stellar Grand Patriot.

    Really? You should reconsider. Powermaster Prime, Overlord, Piranacon, Doubledealer and Darkwing/Dreadwind are some of the best characters ever.

    Not to mention Star Saber and the rest of the Victory guys.
