He is a beast. Great job with this one. We should've gotten this one instead of the current ultimate O.P.
first off.. awesome job! that blue looks soo nice on him.. but.. man.. imma say something very newbish right now.. cuz i never bought the ultimate prime.. but........ so the rotf/dotm leader class prime fits in the "armor"? why didnt hasbro just use that one to begin w/ and not that scrawny pathetic looking one.. i only wonder this b/c i notice your the only one as of late to use the ultimate armor w/ the rotf leader prime mold but also still have the trailer intact
As I recall from an interview, a Takara designer said that they basically got it right with the RotF leader Prime mold, and wanted to do something completely different with Ultimate Prime. The result was well... yeah. Heck I mean they kinda did this with the voyagers too. Battle Blades prime is probably even a more impressive achievement than Leader prime considering its scale, but rather than update that mold to the DoTM design they had that godawful mini-voyager mold, Ultraleg Prime. But as this custom shows... yeah this is the way it shoulda been done. A real "Ultimate" Prime.
The new ultimate optimus! I love it, well done. One of the best I have seen! I recognize the primus hands. Definently an inspiration for my future custom.
