    Hasbro doesn't seem to be worried about smokestacks poking kids eyes out anymore. They left the various releases of MP10 un-snipped.

    Just bought for the stacks to swap over. It's very weak there is no trailer, they must have needed the extra plastic for that other cra.... .... stuff in the picture.

    If you guys really want a trailer then I hear Takara will sell you an Optimus with a trailer for 50,000 JPY.

    I'm probably in the minority, I think that packaging looks really neat without a trailer.

    I'll probably get a few of these to hand out to kids I know and to keep a MISB version for myself.

    Nope, I like it too! I don't need it but it kinda looks cool just the cab in that small G1 inspired box

    I always thought the snipped smokestacks were a cost saving measure? Without the expense of needing to make the trailer they can go all out..hopefully die-cast is included to...

    The curved box corners instead of the recently released ones with square corners is a massive plus.
