Hey all! I had what I think is a brilliant idea for a G1 Optimus Mega... or maybe it's soda and sleep deprivation talking... but here's my thoughts for an Optimus with trailer mega. Lookie this picutre.  Now the trailer itself has no base. When the two black strike spots are hit and the figure is defeated, it always transforms. You don't replace the mega with another one, but it actually transforms. It's built much like G1 Prime's old trailer. In battle station mode, the robot mode Optimus figure that comes with the set fits in the radar tower. When the trailer is defeated, the Energon-Axe striker Optimus is taken out of the tower, the trailer is transformed, and Optimus fights as a striker. When he gets defeated, he has a good chance of transforming- replaced with the truck figure (which- please, Hasbro- is also included in the set). The truck has a peg on the back which the trailer can be attached to. Or, you can start as the truck if you wish. I'm not sure how the truck would play, but it would be a cool set reguardless. |

That's a cool idea, though quite complicated and most likely very hard to make.

It'd probably be less of a Mega than in the Tournament Set/Battle Case classification, I'd think. The vehicle and robot as two figures and the trailer as a 'playset', for example.

I didn't even think of the Battle Case idea. I like it. Hasbro, make one!

That's a cool idea, the base could be a battleground, optimus could be a mega, and the trailer could transport attacktix like a battle case. Sounds costy ;D

Well, if the trailer was the Battle Case, then I guess Optimus could come with it. Also, Instead of a large thing that can hold a few figures, this would be Optimus' trailer and would be much better received than the original case.

It would be cool to have a Transformer Battle Case that would be a cool transformeable thing with a striking G1 Optimus as the bonus figure! Although, if they did make a Battle Case, and they just repainted the SW one to look like Cybertron instead of a transformeable thing, I would be truly sad  |

He probably means orange to make it like the "Golden Age". That, or because the inside of alot of the buidlings and ships were orange.
Either way, I'd buy it even if it was just a repainted SW Battle Case.

Haha, I was referring more to how most metals on Cybertron seem to be orange, and that orange is closer to gold than black/gray is. I guess that was kind of a stupid way to word it though...  |
