    Finally.. a picture of the the back of Prime. You get to see how hollow his legs are.

    Darn, I was hoping for a rifle that could fold out like Meister's. Oh well.

    Man, sorry to say this, but Ginrai looks like a mess. Bad proportions (such small arms and massive shins) and an overabundance of kibble..yeesh.:(

    Well Prime does not impress me sadly, still I hold out hope that they don’t do a Magnus repaint of this that can be a new mould that is cab and trailer bot, at least then that could be kit bashed in to a real Prime.

    Transmutate = love.
    Prime: I'm not giving a final opinion on how I think he looks until I've seen photos taken by someone who actually knows how to transform him properly.

    I'm preparing myself for the worst. The "knees" don't look that great.

    I'm starting to think that he has no knees...

    Yeah the front has that pivot point, but if you look at the back, there's no break where the knee would pivot from... Also the side of the bed of the truck on the legs don't look like they could bend either...

    'Course I'm hoping that I'm completely wrong here... :thumb

    Prime's looking good to me. I would have preffered a head sculpt closer to the G1 cartoon. Something more like PM Prime's regular head. This one is still good, though. It'll look even better, once the eyes are painted yellow.

    I see no reason to assume he doesn't have knees, when you can see the part of the truck bed that folds out to give clearence for them.

    AHHH!!! I see what you mean!!! So the front leg panels stay put while the actual leg bends backwards behind the panel...

    Phew, I was panicking but it seems like the knees are there... The joint might be a bit higher than usual, but at least it's there... I thought the knees would bend where you see a pivot point on the front of the leg panels... But apparently that's not the case at all... I guess you can say the whole leg panel thing resembles a baseball catchers leg guards... :thumb 

    So now that I've seen his knees and his gun, I'm truly like him for what he's worth... :thumb
