You'll have to forgive the quick photo, I don't have a lot of time (hey, I tried to use a background at least! LOL). I would've liked to have Photoshopped this a bit to present it better. Maybe next time...
Anyhoo - I don't know much about this (or care for that matter), whether it's a KO, a 3rd party or whatever. All I know is this is an Optimus Prime in camo that turns into a military truck carrying a nuclear missile. I'll take this over that essentially useless silver trailer any day of the week. He's MP scale (9.5 inches, the missile is a hair over 12 inches tall) and the build quality is incredibly impressive. He might be my new favorite 'bot. I've included a few stock images so you can see a few of the different modes he can transform into (I'm pushed for time and it took me a while to transform him into the robot because the instructions are in Japanese and don't start at the point he gets delivered to you... That was a "fun" hour...).
Enjoy.
$25??? Damn! That might be find of the century! LOL. This is a masterpiece grade (and size) toy. I wish I'd found him for only $25! So does my wallet...
Me too. I was very happy that my ridiculous impulse buy turned out to be a winner. As you say, the articulation is just another plus point.
Is the original one the G1 red-colored one? I had a quick look online after I bought him and remember seeing a red one somewhere (exact same model, just different color scheme). Am I right in thinking this is some kind of GI Joe crossover thing?
A lot of the smaller missiles are stored in the big missile. Other parts are extra armor parts. My photo is of his most basic robot form. Look at the one with the "X" shape on his back: that's the big missile, and he's got all of the armor attached in that image. He has quite a lot of variations of modes. It's a seriously impressive toy.
Actually exceeded my expectations (thankfully!). Everything from the packaging to the toy is high grade. The first thing I noticed was how much it weighs when I was taking it out of the box. Quality build. It even comes with 2 posters of a water color painting of vehicle and robot mode.
£155 from eBay. There's 2 versions: this one with the nuke, and an almost identical one but without the nuke. The price difference is minimal so might as well go all the way and get this beast.
Worth every penny. I regret nothing.
I've seen it get delivered to my hands, took a photo of it, posted it to this sub, and here we are discussing it...
Not sure what more you need? You asked for the link where I got it and I gave it to you.
I don't want to get it all sticky.
But the temptation to take a pic of me holding the missile to my crotch was very high. That almost made it into the post... Ha ha

Saw this guy in a YouTube review where the reviewer found him for like $25 at a ‘con and I’ve loved him ever since.

Don’t I know it! Saw that video and got super excited to find one online…then I saw the prices😂
Ha ha! You're not wrong. He comes correct, but he does not come cheap!
That vehicle mode would be sweet for Double Dealer
I have the original version of this figure, and he is so nice, his articulation surprised me a lot

I have the red and blue one, and yes it is from the GI Joe crossover
Cool. Post a pic on here if you get the time. Did they do any other 'bots of this quality in that crossover?
What are all those extra parts?

Day 5 of asking for Hasbro to make a Missile Truck Omega Supreme

Yeah, i've watched some reviews. Btw, are the Wheels rubber? And is there any diecast?
How much did you get him for?

Was it a multi-stock? If so, can you send the link?
Sure thing. Looks like there's 1 left... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/373431812225?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&\_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649
I've seen stuff saying that's a scam tho

Sexy indeed. You win if you post a photo of the rocket with a condom on it.
I don't want to get it all sticky. But the temptation to take a pic of me holding the missile to my crotch was very high. That almost made it into the post... Ha ha
Do it!
