    I’m down. DX9 has always made my favorite Legends-scale stuff.

    Looks like the chest windows flip around on a hinged piece that has a flat side for alt mode and a curved side for bot mode. You can see the angled separation point on the alt mode pic.

    This is one reason I love buying Optimus toys over and over again because it’s so much fun seeing the different ways people come up with to go between robot and truck.

    I was thinking its a Predator reference. Being that Dutch is Arnolds name in the film and he wore a red polo in the beginning, also Peter Cullen is the VO for the predator.

    Oh, gosh! No-one, right? Everyone knows Prime is the most hated TF in history and that we have a million and one options for a legends scale Prime with a trailer.

    This will surely bomb and cause DX9 to fold.

    If only you were on their selection committee when they were pitching ideas for characters to handle. Now they have met their financial doom.

    It will be a tough call between Hot Soldiers and DX9 versions of Prime... I don't THINK I'll be gettin both.

    Just wait for mechfanstoys to choose which one, upscale it a smidge and then charge half the price.

    Maaaaaan, I thought it looked incredible until I realized the torso is all fake. I hate when they do that, so much for "transforming".

    Seriously though, these need to be the "right" size... (for my own personal size preference) . :)
