    Exactly what I'm picturing. Well with a little red gut under the window, but that's just about perfect.

    Heck they want proof, I worked 16 hours yesterday, 11 today, and I'm commenting when I have to be up in six and a half hours for another 11 hrs! :)

    Modern alt modes for G1 characters

    People have flipped the legs around and it doesn't look right. The shoulders are too small, the chest details are all off and the truck cab are the legs aren't done right at all. The cab is supposed to be the foot, not for the cab to have a foot underneath. Everything about this figure is off.

    I love this mold so I'm in, but this deco could have been so much more interesting. With how much red ends up on most of his legs from the truck cab, they should have swapped red and blue on the rest of the figure (silver left as-is). Same classic Prime colors but with a spin on it to go with the updated alt mode.

    Still want G2 hero version!

    It's a fan channel exclusive, which means online retailers (sometimes includes Amazon, sometimes it doesn't) and stores like Gamestop. VNR is just the vehicle that was licensed for this mold.

    I think it looks nice, but I think I'll pass. I have my goofy holiday Prime and that'll do.

    One step closer to a Nemesis Prime. I never buy Nemesis, but I don’t like this alt mode for Optimus. It’d be great for Nemesis

    I want this now, tbh I don't care about Volvo's line of diesel trucks. But it looks good anyway

    I like it. He will be my G2/machine wars Prime. Neat. Will this be available to all for pre order?
