    Hey guys,as the title says would you buy a Tractorimus Prime if Hasbro or Takara made one?.I just got this idea in another thread but in all seriousness I would love to see Optimus as a Farm Tractor,with maybe a brush hog or hay bailer.And make him like one of those big types with the closed in compartment.

    But strictly done up in his traditional red,grey & blue style.I would so buy that if they did him would you?

    I'd like more Transformers that turn into farm vehicles/equipment in general. Thunderhoof is a start.

    no, but i'd buy a tractor transformer.

    a tractor prime wouldn't mean shit to me. it's like with MMC's HOS prime. i know there's an audience, but optimus prime is a pretty iconic design and i don't want unique alt modes ruined by all looking like the same guy.

    One could probably modify Beast Hunters Optimus into some sort of farm vehicle.

    Not in a million years, nor a tractorscream or a bumblecor or a megator. But i would buy any other TF with a farm vehicle altmode. And i will buy RID Thunderhoof.

    If it was a good figure and within my budget, maybe. As long as I didn't prefer the remould/redeco more. Out of all transformers characters, Optimus is the one with the most established variants and related characters so a Prime that's a tractor instead of a truck, ape, lion, mammoth, firetruck, space firetruck etc etc would be just fine.

    Seriously, though, an Optimus Prime line that's all about creating new Optimuses could be pretty fun and funny. Make it a subline of MP or something and put out something neat every six months at most. It might work.

    As someone who's been stuck on the highway behind a tractor hogging both lanes and going 15 MPH several times, I can comfortably say I not only don't want a tractor Prime, I don't want any tractors, period.

    I would love a team of completely non-descript vehicles.

    A tractor, a school bus, a mail truck, a garbage truck...

    It is actually my secret wish to have every style of alt mode transform into a traditional-esque Optimus Prime.

    Not even kidding.

    I feel he still needs to be a truck though, but maybe he has a unique farm related trailer, maybe one that is open at the top to hold large bales of hay?

    Then maybe the trailer combines with the truck similar to Powermaster prime?

    Just slap an Autobot sticker on Thunderhoof and call him "Antlermoose Prime"

    Well, imagine a combine harvester Transformer. How does that sound?
