Looking for Masterpiece Optimus Prime Trailer....

JediTray · 12-15-2008, 10:48 PM

Hello everyone,

I know this has probably been done to death, but I would like to know where I can find a trailer for my 20th Prime. I want one that opens and has the roller in it, and allows Prime to stand in it, etc. I know we've all seen the pics, but I haven't the slightest clue where to obtain one. The closest I got to getting exactly what I want is at KOOL TOYZ, which has been sold out of this particular item for a YEAR now and the owner, Sheraz, has no update from the maker.

I have seen the customs, I have seen the JustiToys that doesn't open.... Is there ANY hope of getting a transforming trailer in this scale?

I'm not the local Transformers know-it-all, so I would appreciate any and all input on this.

Thanks!

There is a 'wants' section a few doors down on this forum. You may have luck there. I know one sold recently on these boards, so perhaps someone else will be listing one.

I have this trailer and it's amazing. You definitely won't be disappointed if you find one!

The same guy that made it is making a MP UM trailer, maybe he can help you get one as he posts on the boards.

There are quite a few threads already in this forum about various MP Prime trailers. This thread was particularly helpful for me recently.

MP Prime Trailer Question?

I believe the trailer that Kool Toyz is selling is the one that dalianjj was selling. If this is another one, then it would be 5 trailers that have been made for MP Prime.

Crap. That means I am S.O.L.

I'll either end up without a trailer altogether, or will have to sell a kidney.

There is none on ebay?

I've only seen the non-transforming JustiToys version on eBay.

Looks like my only chance is to get the MP-04. Trouble is, being disabled and having a very limited income makes purchases like that difficult. I'd have to scrimp and save, and a lot of times whatever I'm after is sold out by then.

Anyway, if I do end up being able to get the MP-04, what online retailers do you guys recommend? Where did you find the best value, price, shipping cost, customer service, etc.?

Please provide me with links and any other info you can.

I found a couple on Ebay. The first one is $225, shipping and all:

This one, if you did buy-it-now, is $225 shipped as well but the starting bid is $160 and nobody's bid on it yet so you have a chance at getting it for $185 shipped:

Even though it is pricey I would recommend that you try to get it. The one transformer I have that I will never part with is my MP Prime and his trailer.
