    That's an awesome trailer, but I believe there's also going to be a downsized version of the MPP-10V coming soon as well. May look into this one as well...any links or suggestions for shopping it?

    Agreed. It's not happening that often or this thread would be exploding with complaints, as well as other online sources and reviewers making mention of it all over the place...

    This is the thread:

    Second Chance SC-01 Trailer for Voyager Evasion Mode Optimus Prime

    So depends where u live.
    I buy most of my stuff from Asia coz I'm from down under. But if you're from the US, then you could probably buy it local.

    And as for the MP10V trailer.. I have heard plenty of news of that getting released, only to be delayed continuously...
    But I really do hope they make it.. l wouldn't mind a roller !!

    Yeah, definitely wouldn't mind having a Roller for sure!

    At this point, delays, while somewhat annoying, don't bother me so much, because 1) gives me more time to find and purchase, and 2) inevitably the product releases, and usually with better quality...and I'm apparently more patient than most, lol.

    It took Smartlulup 3 weeks to get in contact with KBB to get me a replacement seeker part and it didn't sound like the problem was on her end.

    Excuse me. Been out of collecting since I was a kid in the 80's. Have this guy on order. However I'm wondering what would be a good Grimlock to go along with him. Have a Megatron on order through a guy on here Rubadub, but wondering about a Grimlock. Also kind of wondering about which Bumblebee would look good with him?

    MP-08 would work.

    Yes definitely MP 08. I have both on display and they look great together. For Bumblebee I'd say the current Titans Return one would do the trick

    Let me say again how awesome this figure is. He's the best CHUG scale Prime out there and I have the white Magnus version en route from Rub.

    Also have to say the OS KO Warbotron Grimlock is pretty nice looking beside him as well. Both are voyager class, but unless you're an absolute scale whore about things, they do look nice together, otherwise, perhaps MP Grimlock is your preference (but at much greater cost). ;)

    My son got a hold of him from the shelf, and although he wasn't by any means brutal with him, the little loop that holds the chrome bottom grill on the pin snapped. It's ok as long as it'svtucked away inside his chest in robot mode but I'm afraid of putting him back in truck mode for fear of the other loop snapping off as well.

    Anyone know where I can obtain a replacement part or perhaps someone can 3D print a sturdier piece? I really love this thing. Gr! Argh!

    Just from my experience, I've had mine for quite some time and have no grill breakage issues or cracks around that particular pin area on either side. Transformed him back and forth quite a few times, too. Mine's been absolutely solid.

    If only I knew my way 'round sketchup I'd go to shapeways and 3D print in a nice solid plastic or metal version. The cheapo chrome-foam bits always scare me.

    Makes me think it's a mixing issue for the plastic, or maybe they started using the wrong gauge pins.

    Has anyone tried that laser-light fix-pen on TF plastic?

    Whoo, you got pic man? I'm trying to picture this on my normal MP10 can't to seem to find it. This does not encourage me to pursuit the MP10V Magnus from Ebay. I was watching a Youtube MP10V Prime, the way that guy snap the grill onto the chest looks very scary like it was going to snap off.
