    FWI-3 is one of my prized collections but this set seems really odd. Both in timing and for the figure shown.

    Looks decent. Wonder how this looks with Takara Advanced Battle Blades Voyager Optimus.

    While it may be random, this looks very good. Definitely interested.

    So...can it transform or is it going to be stuck in armory mode permanently?

    If these weapons have round pegs, Battle Blades Optimus won't be able to hold them.

    This looks the most fun. I think my price ceiling on it is going to be pretty low though given that there's no effort to make it transform.

    I mean, a trailer for that mold would really cement the whole "I am both G1 and movie style" thing.

    Well this is pretty damn interesting. I'm not sure about the market for it, despite it being designed for the ever-popular Evasion Prime. I typically buy everything FWI, but I'm not sure about this one.

    I got the UFO transforming trailer, and I love the fact that it can transform, but I know I'm just going to keep it in armory mode basically forever, so I'd totally be down for a non-transforming one. If only this came out 6 months ago before I bought the UFO one...

    I got those for the 2nd and 3rd movies, so I'm good. Thanks none the less, and I'm happy for those who want it from their move 4 prime. :cool:

    Really, unless they had made the ring turn into a trailer I just don't see the demand for the item.

    Nice idea, just seems past it's time.

    It's cool but it would work better with battle blades prime. Sadly bbop has those weird hand ports.

    It is hard to say, but I can see a couple of wheels on it. Don't know if they are just an accessory or if there is some alt mode attachment.

    Dark of the Moon accessories for Leader-class Prime downscaled for a Voyager-class Prime from the wrong movie?
    With an annular trailer that's no longer a trailer?
    And a flight pack for an Optimus who doesn't fly?

    Too little, too late. :redface2:

    I'm definitely getting the weapons collection, however, I'm uncertain if I want a Jetwing for him. I definitely don't want a non-transforming trailer.

    I'm really looking forward to the Jetwing; I've wanted one for Evasion Prime ever since he came out. For whatnit's worth, Evasion Mode Prime very accurately captures the proportions of Movie Prime's body and has a very accurate face. For that reason I'm glad they made the kits for Evasion Prime and not Battle Blades Prime (who is a bit too wide and dissproportionate though he is a great figure). Might get the weapons as well; heck for what it's worth they work for about three different DOTM molds as well so I have lots of things to use them on. I do wish the weapon bay transformed but not too bummed on that. Overall gonna get the Jetwing for sure and maybe the other two.
