    You should specify which toy you have in mind for this trailer to go with. There have been many trailers in the past.

    Since its Prime the Toy would need to be alteast Voyager, that would make the Trailer Gigantic to keep it in scale. I guess it boils down to how they use it in the movie. It might be just a trailer in the movie that Prime uses once or twice while driving and it may not even transform into the combat deck or anything.

    Not sure how this will play out but I think we will only see Primes trailer in less or about half the movie,and one of the decep. blasts it and destroys it hence why Prime has no trailer,too easy to get damaged by the decepticons.

    As for the toy,I wish Hasbro would do one for him but I don't think they will.But we will find out in a couple of months if they will or not at Toy Fair or Botcon.

    If it does nothing in the movie, it would be great to see a legends sized one.

    I wonder if they won't have it for a new Prime mold, have it be a Leader or Supreme toy, but maybe the truck cab would only be deluxe sized

    I'd raher have a Voyager Prime with a cool trailer at a leader price than a leader Prime with a trailer at a Supreme Devastator price.

    I think so. It's probably going to function as some sort of power-up armor, or maybe it houses Jetfire's bits.

    I'm expecting a Voyager figure with a trailer to that scale sold at the same price point as Supreme Devastator from ROTF.

    That trailer had better have a button that gives women orgasms within 20 feet, too. That's a $20 figure with an $80 trailer...

    I didn't say I'd agree with the price :) 

    Although I was actually thinking something more like $80 total...Supreme Devastator was on clearance so long around here, those somewhat lower prices I usually saw it at are what immediately come to mind when I think of the figure.

    Even tho all of you think he is coming with a trailer I just don't see hasbro changing their minds about giving prime a trailer,they just don't wanna spend extra money to design it.And also look at the past 2 movie based figures,all of them have been remolds of there selves like Rtachet,Ironhide,Bee and so forth.So I say if hasbro does do a trailer for Prime it'll be a bloody freakin miracle.

    The G2 Laser Rod Prime/RiD Scourge trailer works really well with the original TFTM Voyager Optimus Prime mold, so I would imagine something like that being the way a new trailer would be presented (if we get one) - a Voyager figure with trailer, sold at Leader price.

    it really boils down to how important the trailer is in the movie. If it becomes something of vital importance then yes it will be made as fans will expect it. if not it might get passed on.

    I am hoping for a trailer.

    The leader Primes from the first two movies weren't different enough for me to warrant a second purchase.

    I will bite for something with a trailer though

    Of course there will be a trailer toy. We've seen it filmed in both Washington DC & Chicago so it is in multiple scenes. Add to the fact that it related to Prime, the main bot.

    Depands on what Prime's trailer functions as in DotM. If it is just a fan wank and is utilized to haul NEST personal and equipment around, then I see no reason for a toy. Now if Prime somehow combines with it for like an Apex armor type thing, then maybe. If that is the case, then I can see the cab being deluxe sized with the trailer and sold at a Voyager (maybe Ultra) price point. At the most Voyager cab with trailer at Leader price point. But how knows maybe Hasbro would bring back the Supreme class toys (Unicron/Primus sized) for DotM to place this in.
