BTS Toys Rollar Update

More at: BTS.TOY: New Update For Semi Finished Scout Rollar

Pretty neat features, though I think I should still get the FansProject version

Not that I am complaining, but there seems to be a bunch of these third party companies, coming out with the same thing, albeit with a slightly different take on each version.

But why would I want just a little roller from BTS and not a trailer?

Roller comes with the trailer.

Oh my. This is shaping up to be a must-get.

Wow! Very cool.

Better than that: Roller is PART of the trailer.

Interesting. Still not sure if I want to get this or not yet, but it is definently tempting me.

Pretty cool!

Neat. Though right now I'm leaning towards FansProject's trailer if I get one.

Battle damaged Rollar? Looks like the plastic they used for these early prototypes didn't set very well. Probably not an issue for the real releases.

Looks good to me. I hope the Nemesis trailer's Rollar is colored appropriately.

But, have we ever really seen a totally screwed up "fail!!" version of Rollar though?

damn it, all the awesome fan made projects for the classics prime/convoy molds are going to bankrupt me

So, with all these add-ons, has no one made a g1 style rifle for Classics Optimus Prime?

Well being part of the trailer isn't necessarily a good thing. Say you want to have Prime hauling his trailer and have Roller pop out the back, oops can't happen cuz he's part of the trailer

I'm still torn between this version and the other fan-made version. This one seems to better for a diorama type playset, but does it come with those black guns to add to figures that need them or are they sold separately? The other fan-made version looks more like the G1 Tralier and it's supposed to come with like 5 extra guns I think, but it lacks the fold out display that I like about this set

I think I'll get the Nemesis one and the FP one for Prime. Just let's hope the painting matches the one in the art. It would be amazing if they include a sword as an additional for the Nemesis one...

Is there any update from the Fansproject one on release date or if BBTS will sell them?

Good thing noone's making a Purple one for your Shattered Glass Prime...

funky. i like the homage to use primes gun as attachment, thats thinking. I know you can do it on most, but this one looks the part. very reminisint of the OG roller. I approve this toy.

I like the roller BTS mold, how it kinda looks dirty and bubbly like that from factory, from quick dry or choice of plastics, whatever I like it, thats custom built in. I know its wrong but I like it.

I wonder if Diaclone drivers will fit without looking to small.

Yeah,the Fansproject trailer comes with Roller and 5 character-specific weapons.

Also some more recentpics show that the trailer has hinges on the outside so I'm guessing it does open up.

I kinda like the futuristic looking trailer more

But roller being part of it? Hmm, not so good

worried by rollar as part of the trailer? buy 2 problem solved

It's odd that they too would make a rollar.

With BTS' design, it frees up space inside the trailer for most of the deluxe autobots to ride in car mode. From the pictures of Fansproject's trailer, it looks like you won't be able to have roller and bumblebee inside at the same time.

Don't Jinx me.

Well, I'm getting the Nemesis version of this for Nemeis Prime (obviously) and I'll wait for the Fans Project G3 trailer for Optimus (Lets have a pre-order already!).

First we get a NEW add on (Trailer etc), then we get an upgrade pack (Head, weapons etc.)

Sorry but there's simply too many of these "individuals" coming out with their own versions..

..so much till some of us gets confused.

Those upgrade-upgrade packs are other groups trying to capitalize off products they themselves could never make. Like City Commander does not need a new head. But as long as there are fans who will to spend money, there will be these other guys making un-needed extras.

Are you actually spamming each upgrade thread?

Nope, the last thing that I have on my mind is spamming the thread.

I'm just voicing out my opinion at the multiple "upgrade" packs we're seeing this far. This has evolved into much more..

..So much that one (Me, for a start) gets confused with who's making what.

This has me really torn. On the one hand, FP rocked with the CC. That one piece literally got me back into TFs lol. And their G3 trailer comes out of the box ready to hook up to the CC trailer. Which is kind of a big deal for those of us who already have a CC or SC.

On the other hand, the outward design itself of the BTS trailer fits in much better with the CC trailer (and the classics prime/magnus itself IMO). And I love the look of it all folded out, and the fact that the gun can deploy while the trailer is still mostly closed and attached. But I don't like the fact that it can't hook up to the CC trailer (at least as far as we can see) or Rollar being the wheels.

Blah.

SO mine.
