    Pictures like this are dangerous. They make me want to actually spend money on Sunstreaker so that I can actually complete Optimus Maximus

    Like this? Not a fan personally, I don't think it works like it does for Blackjack.

    So how does Battle Core Prime compare to the original with the Nonnef ratchets? Any other improvements besides the hips?

    I just got OP today and i like him a lot....i thought he was going to be bland but with rodimus as a chest piece it breaks up the entire white torso. Overall im happy with this figure! [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    [​IMG] modified the fan mode config of rodimus, extended the legs as well. Overall he does not look as short as the the other modified version but he is super hollow and skinny on the side due to a thin back...oh well, cant win it all.

    Really enjoying this guy right now. By changing rodimus orientation, it allows the legs to expand more naturally, thus giving him that heroic stance, a la gypsy danger of pacific rim. Does anyone have any other legion figs that they can configure to give this guy a backpack? [​IMG]

    Dammit, why did I click this thread. I already knew I wanted the four limbs, but screw this boring, bland, white Optimus. Oops.

    Way to change my mind, guys.

    Also, even if the hip ratchets are better, I SERIOUSLY recommend the Nonnef replacements for Optimus, Motormaster, and even this one. It works for Superion, too, but it's more trouble and the result isn't as dramatic, but I absolutely love them. Well worth the $5 a pair.

    Here's the link if anyone needs it: Nonnef Productions

    I had NOOO intentions on getting the wave 4 limbs (except for Mirage and Prowl) or BC Prime but now seeing all the potential here, I will have to get them all..

    I actually like him with the wave four limbs more than I thought I would. I'll probably still stick with normal Prime for them but it's not bad at all.
