Saw this guy for $13 in Kmart the other day and was fairly tempted. Certainly a much better rendition of Prime than the Voyager or Ultimate versions. But the gastly gold colouring would have to go, and that's a lot of custom work with flames like that.

already bought this TF fig and i must say it looks awesome with the gold flames gives O.p a vintage look.

Wow, $13. I saw him for $20 and thought it was a fairly good deal. Nice weapon.

Yeah, I regretted not getting him at the time. Even if he were only used as the base for a custom, it's a good deal.

Movie-verse Motormaster could be fun. The 'blocked in' look of the torse and shoulders could actually work fairly well. And then to try to connect up some scout sized cars...

Actually I was wrong, they had him back in stock yesterday and it was $15, not $13. Still a pretty good price for a Prime that absolutely sh-ts all over the staggeringly bad DOTM Voyager.

Please tell me... is this mould able to attach to 1984 G1 Optimus Prime's trailer?
