    Next dumb question from the new guy. Any first hand opinions of how Classics OP looks suited up in the City Commander armor? I was able to score OP at a reasonable price. I also was fortunate enough to be trolling BBTS when the CC was re-released and picked up one of those (should be on it's way today!!!).

    I have searched for pics online, and for the most part he still looks pretty damn good. Obviously in truck mode it would look bad, but as far in robot mode, I was curious as to how obvious it is that it's the wrong figure.

    I am trying like hell to get UM, but the re-release of CC seems to have spiked UM prices on eBay like crazy, so for now, OP will have to suit up.

    Speaking of which, if anyone comes across an extra UM, help a brotha out. I'll pay, I just can't stomach the current $100+ trend on eBay.

    Try the review thread down in the Feedback forum. I'd bet there are pictures in there. :)

    Ultimately, that may be the way I have to go, but I haven't even seen any of those that look like they'd work. I.e., they looked too dissimilar to the mold required to fit into the CC.

    The only thing you can even see will be the arm sheilds from the Prime figure, so it's literally only the arms you're even worrying about. Now, as for the colors, the red arm shields doesn't match the baby blue as much as the white, but, it's passable for sure.

    OP in the CC is the way to go. The cheap KO are cheap in quality and the costlier KO are expensive for what they are.

    I heard the KO CC armour is a POS. But as they said, All you see are the arms. So OP with CC is better than KO UM with CC but never as good as UM with CC.
