About this deal

Trailer only (standard purple innards variant, does not include door), c8-9 (nice but for broken roller eject button) The original Ultra Magnus figure has been reissued and redecoed several times down the years, and this article strives to list each edition of the figure under its own heading. The first alteration to Magnus, however, was a running change made while he was still on shelves: Originally, his tires were made of rubber and he sported paint on both his small and large robot heads, but this version was soon replaced with one featuring plastic tires and no paint on either head. In addition, the clear yellow plastic that formed his windows was removed from the cab, leaving just holes instead; and his thighs and fuel tanks were left white, as opposed to the vacuum metalized chrome ones of the original release.

Other notes of interest: Metal plates variant. One broken trailer door hinge. Tower claw arm broken off and missing. Does include door. Notable defects: right rear trailer door hinge neatly repaired, roller launch tab broken and missing, tires dry and hardened especially on trailer He was released with Skywarp as part of the "Battle for Autobot City" set. He was also available in Woolworth stores throughout the United Kingdom. GiG released the toy as Commander as part of their Transformers line in Italy in 1985, including an all-plastic variant in 1986; Very pleasingly, LEGO Transformers 10302 Optimus Prime more than manages to do that, perhaps thanks in part to such a surprisingly large piece count for this set. 1,508 pieces can go a long way on a single build and – in the right designer’s hands here, where not a single piece has been wasted – have come together to masterfully capture the same spirit of that original 1984 toy, while also embracing some of the opportunities to modernise the design as per moComplete (standard purple roller variant), NEAR MINT (excellent). Item was part of a large, well-cared for collection Trailer only (blue innards variant, does not include door), c8 (broken driver-side door hinge, missing tower canopy, missing holding rods for trailer sides though they do stay in place, otherwise fine) His original trailer is not included with the set; instead, he comes with a new deluxe-scaled trailer, not available with any other figure, based on the one towed by Prime in Dark of the Moon. The trailer is compatible with both figures, and sports 5mm post-holes that will hold (among many other things) G1 Prime's laser rifle and the MechTech weapon Movie Prime is armed with. Trailer only (standard purple innards variant), c8-9 (could use a dusting, otherwise nice). Includes trailer door! This mold was also used to make the concurrently released TakaraTomy Mall exclusive Decepticon Refraktor R5, and redecoed into Nemesis Prime.

Other condition notes: missing both side panels and connector rods, passenger-side door hinge broken, missing claw arm, needs a dusting, markings are 6 Hasbro 1980, 1982 and Takara 1980 1982 In addition, the set also comes with a replica of the S.T.A.R.S. supply kit, a S.T.A.R.S. badge, a Transformers Fan Club card, a poster, and a Transformers Mook. In addition to the small engine-pistol of his Alternators figure, Prime comes with the "Surfblade", a pink surfboard that can be reconfigured into either two small knives or a large double-bladed sword. As with all the Kiss Players figures, Prime also comes with a PVC figurine of a cute girl: in this case, Marissa Faireborn, who can perch upon his shoulder or sit in his driver's seat, and comes with two pairs of interchangeable arms and legs. Additionally, the set includes a CD featuring the first five episodes of the Kiss Players radio drama, as well as the exclusive bonus audio adventure, " Someday, Beneath the Sun."One of Megatron's most loyal henchmen, Soundwave is a cold and calculating Decepticon that's capable of reading minds. This LEGO Optimus Prime figure is part of a range of LEGO sets designed for adult builders, looking for their next immersive project Exclusive toys were sold at BotCon, and since they were all limited edition, it's no surprise that they're expensive. Figure only, (trailer only, standard purple innards variant, trailer door not included), c7 (driver-side door hinge broken but repaired with custom hook, tower has been removed). TFL Lot F3U7. Item guaranteed 1980s G1 original. Item was reviewed on our Youtube channel as part of our inventory preview series.

While Stan Lee had nothing to do with Transformers — he didn't write or draw the comic — it was a Marvel comic book and, well, it's Stan Lee. His signature on any comic book is highly coveted.Boxed (with styrofoam insert), complete (with instructions, tech specs decoder and styrofoam eject instructions) but missing 2 missiles, gas hose, pump, and nozzle (figure is standard purple roller variant). Figure (cab and trailer) are c9 (beautiful with nothing broken or repaired). Box is c8-9 (light to moderate edge wear, moderate to heavy flap crease, otherwise nice and bright and straight and clean with robot points and tech specs still on box!) Guaranteed 1980s original! For the mainland Europe Milton Bradley release, there were two variants of Optimus Prime available: the first version, manufactured by Takara, sported blue feet like most other versions; the second version, manufactured by Joustra's parent company Ceji, sported red feet instead. [1] On top of that, the Italian release of "Commander" by GiG eventually featured a later variant that replaced the rubber tires and die-cast feet with plastic parts, similar to the US KB Toys variant of Ultra Magnus. He also has the strange ability to transform into a gun, which needs to be fired by someone else. That might sound weird in Transformers world, but it made for one awesome toy.
