    Does anyone other than me thinks that if you painted the new Alternators Optimus Prime to Black (with Swindle's head) he's pretty much dead on for Trailbreaker? I just thought with the way the hood is for the chest, and the way the tops of the shoulders stuck up, it looked alot like Trailbreaker should. Even the truck mode is pretty fitting for him.

    Just a thought.

    And if Takomy releases the Black Convoy BT, I and about 500 other TF fans will do just that. :D

    Actually I will be happy if they just repaint it to black so I can have my nemesis prime (having missed the Armada version). Trailbreaker is a nice idea but you'll have to replace one of the hands with a turret to make it look similar imo.

    "I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more, it may sound funny but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'. I guess some things never change."

    People bitch about everything, I mean look at how people were worked up over Prime's knees!!
