Now I see the trailer is the same as masterpiece Op I'm less regretting buying the jpy la01 version with the car carrier trailer - at least it's new and different (and if the price estimate turns out to be true a hundred bucks less)
Yes, even if it was $200
Yes, but no more than $150
Yes, but only if it is $100
Not unless it was heavily clearanced and don't care if I miss it
Not even interested

I've just dug out my MP-1 Convoy (the bigger one), and the trailer plugs into it. (since the smaller MP-10 Convoy didn't work anymore, I didn't think to check the bigger one)
It is too small in scale to the MP-1 Cab, but might take an extra photo of it later.
Some extra photos to go into the first post, after reading some comments and questions.
I also wanted to add (since I forgot to mention it), how surprised I was to get this set. I was told that they were sending the Breakout Battle set and one other, but I was expecting the Autobot 5-pack or the Leader 2-pack, since they are the other ones that have been shown by Hasbro at BotCon and SDCC... and should be out before this set. So it was like Christmas for me, getting a surprise toy "wrapped up" in a box. (along with a Construct-Bots toy that I didn't yet have either - very, very grateful... and I want to make sure I earn them)
The robot face is a modified sculpt, with a face-plate (right) instead of the mouth version on the First Edition toy (left).
Some Optimus trucks that the MP-10 trailer can now plug into.
Anniversary Optimus (MP-1 Convoy mould) from 2004. The cab is a bit too big though, which can be seen in the next photo.
MP-1B ... Black & silver. As noted above, the cab is so big, the trailer ends up sitting on its back wheels because the front end is sitting upwards.
It also plugs into the Leader class TF4 Optimus.
The cab has a longer proportions to the First Edition, but is smaller, so probably looks better in scale to the trailer.
Bling overload! (Target Silver Knight DLX TF3 Optimus)
A little out of scale - TF4 Voyager Optimus.
It actually does... but I wasn't going to transform one to show it in truck mode. Maybe I should keep more of my toys in different modes, if they are the same mould.
It bugs me a little the front of pack artwork shows red flames on the cab, yet the actual toy has a portion of yellow flames.
But holy moses. How freakin' large is the box!
I'll grab one. FE Optimus looks best as in cab mode and this is how he'll stay.
Wasn't that the Takara MP-10's trailer in the inside comparison? Very nice. I'd get it for the trailer, but it can't go with MP-10 and I'll be getting the TRU version's rerelease.

- CW Brawl
- Earthrise Runabout
- Earthrise Thrust
Nice paint apps. The higher quality paint actually does a decent job of selling Op and Sideswipe looks really nice.
How much do you want for the trailer? I want it.

I've been thinking about getting a First Edition Op and this has made up my mind. It looks great and is a lot nicer than the first version. It even has a face plate!trailer does look a little short and couldn't care less about the Sideswipe but I do like the chrome....I'm a chrome fan!
