Ahoy

Thought I would snap some pics of my animated Prime toy

Not sure if its been mentioned before but his axe can be "transformed" into the back of the cab to make a hook up point for a trailer

Any picture requests let me know!

Does your axe head fall of sometimes? Mine does. But its cool isnt it?

 

Seriously, WAY too many jokes lept to mind . . .

 

lol I should've watched my words.

 

Thanks for the pics, Hitch!

I got mine coming hopefully tomorrow. I got the same four you got. You get them from heerotoysmaker on ebay?

I'm camping out at the mailbox tonight  

 

Whoa!

 

Nice, I got those four + Megatron already. Starscream, sadly, is the only one to show up so far, the rest should be here ANY day now (hopefully later today.) Thanks for the pics!

 

ya i got ops and bulkhead from herro plus i got starscream and megs from different dealers and then in package prowl and lockdown from another dealer.
now all i need is BB and i believe i got all the first wave figs right. but ya im camping my mail box also they all will be coming about the same time

 

Very nice. I cant wait for these to hit stores.

 

Question - Does he store the axe in between his legs there, similiar to the Earth version?

 

What'd you use to make that?

 

Could you show him with armada's trailer?

 

Cool.

 

I would if I still had an Armada trailer lying around.

 

Why does Bulkhead have silver stars? Mine are white :/

 

Because its a sample

Hasbro change the colours of some paint applications on samples, they can then track where samples are leaking from (Hasbro US, Hasbro UK, factory, photography etc)

They started doing it first on Energon/Alternators

Alternators it was often the license plate symbol in a different colour

They also did a simular thing with spray painting the toy (often seen on Alts and Armada toys) or scoring the face then adding paint to it (seen on movie protos)

Bulkhead, final production has the white stars, my Starscream also has the wrong colour details

Huh. I wasn't aware of that. Well, the facial mangling/paint I knew about, but not the different colors of paint.

 

Here's a question. On your Prime, how does his shield attach? The printed directions show that you pop the shield onto a ball joint on the arm. However, on my figure, I have a post on the shield (ball jointed inside the shield) and the post fits into a hole in his arm. I'm guess they changed this, just wanted to confirm it wasn't just mine.

 

nice! where did you get the face plate? its kick a$$ of the highest order
