    We're going to end up with every gradient of dirty, grimy Evasion Optimus, aren't we? Someone better do a grime scale of all of them together.

    This one is a billion times better looking than the off-white ones we've gotten so far, imo. What it loses in screen-accuracy, it more than makes up for in insane, beautiful detail.

    According to the linked Facebook post it's not for sale, though I think it'll be offered as a contest prize.

    If it's a custom, that makes more sense. I can't see that level of detail being produced for a mass-retail release.

    So essentially, a rusty version of the regular release.

    Evasion OP's going to be the next Bumblebee, isn't he?

    Looks great. Too bad Hasbro isn't releasing their rusted Prime looking like this. Their retail release is just ugly.

    Kind of a shame that they're milking this mould. I mean, it's a great mould and everyone should own one, and this means it'll be readily available, but they are going to degrade this mould so quickly. The TakaraTomy one is still the best regular retail version, though. The five-pack Transformers United one is a VERY close second, though, but I don't know why that set is getting all these extra paint apps when the single-pack releases aren't. I guess it's meant to be an SDCC exclusive or something. I didn't pay attention, but it sucks that that's the way it is, regardless.

    Hasbro Scrapyard prime is the best looking variant of this so far.

    I can run down to my Target and pick one up and custom paint on it myself. The figure has been readily available when ever I go out shopping. Does seem to be the go to custom of late, even if he does have derp face. I'd like someone to come up with a Ultra Magnus armor mod for this though.

    Apparently this was done by Kit Lau, the designer behind the Acid Rain toyline from Oritoy.
