TFW2005 member MineSky has shared some images with us of the limited-edition Milk Magazine Evasion Optimus Prime. This one is an extremely limited run item, and to the best of our knowledge is hand-customised, so it’s effectively a Lucky Draw! It also looks rather awesome, so check out the pics after the break.

I was kinda interested in this version, until I saw it in person.
It's pretty well known that I don't like "cheating" transformations, and once I saw what was hidden up on Prime's shoulders,,,?
Ah well, it seems like the PA/Targ-mart-Rus distribution conspiracy will only allow me to find 1st wave stuff and Kreons shelf warming until December. So maybe I'll change my mind down the road.

Now this is how the rusty Evasion Prime is supposed to look like. Both bot and alt mode has the same shade of paint unlike the rusty Evasion Prime which has a not so rusty bot mode but an impressive looking rusty effect in alt mode..

Thanks for the pics! He looks great, although it's sad to see that not a single one of them is actually movie-accurate.
Also, you DO know that he has wrist-swivels, right?

i have joined the photo taking contest in Hong Kong, and this is the winning prize of the contest.
only 3 of us get this milk op from the contest, others are from milk magazine lucky draw

I would buy this figure because the engineering is great but what really bugs me is the the coloured plastic where he should be silver.
Ironically the Takara Milky Bar Optimus would have been a better fit for this magazine.

already up and sold out. up for $180-$200 on ebay.
as to the milk version, i want it mostly because of the pedigree of the person who painted it.

Not bad.

Yeah this doesn't look like anything special. Looks just like a "dirtied" normal retail. They couldn't have even been bothered to put flame detailing on it.
The real gems in these pictures though are Rusty and Nemesis! The contract between the white and black is awesome!

Yeah. This isn't bad but I remember being much more impressed with the deluxe dotm nemesis prime they did. As an expensive premium piece it's a bit disappointing. Of course if Hasbro or takara did a wide release like thi it would incredible and very worth having.
It's not bad, but it should be better.

Is it that hard to find a decent G1 Optimus to photo with? I stopped looking after the 1st pic.

This one is called Dirty Prime
Heat Guy
Yup. Want it.

Honestly it looks like they dipped the thing in a bucket of paint.

A bit of silver & black paint and and hour of free time? They could have at least done the wheels.

That rust effect needs to be put onto Takara's rusty (milky bar) version.
