Fully possible. They are loving the G2 repaints right now so it would not surprise me :BOT:


Yeah, he might even see retail release, but since they jack up the price (and maybe budget) for the big exclusives, they could use that reason for using the TT mold; they just have to wait for TT to finish using it ;)

I would be interested in getting it if it were a more reasonable price (an sdcc exclusive is cheaper through hts than uw devs is through bbts or importing, kinda frightening, isn't it)

It's possible they might release him; I would hope that they would do something original with it - since they already have a magnus - and release him as nova prime, or something.

Both. Orange was the variant version, said to have been a KB Toys exclusive. Though, there were also some yellow versions released in certain markets during G1.

I forget where I bought mine, but I know it was at least two, if not more, stores. Yeah, I'm pretty sure my orange Mixmaster came from KB, probably on sale or clearance. (The rest of my G2 Devy are yellow)

So... Grand Convoy is the first UW set where everyone comes with their corresponding hand/foot gun?

I mean, I guess, technically, Superion had all the right ones, because of the retooled nature of each limb bot, but Menasor had two of Drag Strip's and two of Dead End's (though the latter possibly owes to Dead End and Wildrider having the same tooling, again) and Defensor seems to come with two from Blades, and two from First Aid (This time, no shared limb retooling). Optimus has 4 unique weapons for his limbs.

I guess so. Sure puts the "Grand" in "Convoy Grand Prime", right? 8-)

Europe to be exact, and they got them at least twice: during the original G1 run in the 80's, and again, unnamed and without the bits to combine them into Devastator, in 1992. I don't think they ever got G2 Devastator... :-?

Comparison images of Transformers Unite Warriors Convoy Grand Prime's Prowl, Mirage and Sunstreaker

Postby mooncake623 » Mon Oct 19, 2015 8:48 am

Weapon: Concussion Rifle
Thanks to Hisashi Yuki via TFYUKI, we get some new comparison images of Transformers Unite Warriors Convoy Grand Prime's Prowl, Mirage and Sunstreaker!
Check out the images mirrored below as he compares each to their Combiner Wars counterparts in both Robot and Alt modes. Being released in a gift set do these new images convince you to go with the more expensive Takara versions of these characters? Let us know in the Seibertron.com forums here.
Remember keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates!

I don't know, I kinda like Hasbro Mirage and SunStreaker better. I like that they painted Prowl's "head lights" in robot mode, but I'm fine with the Hasby deco. I'm not feeling the grey face either. the only reason their faces were grey in the show is because they were approximating the silver with the paint they had. TF's heads/faces are silver and should stay that way. At least on these classic characters.
I'm fine with the Domestic decos. Just MLP. (my little 'pinion) :-P

I agree. Mirage and Streaker look better in hasbro colors and Prowl, while there are details that look nicer on Takara, the hasbro one still looks very good. :BOT:

Takara's looks more vibrant and vivid, whereas Hasbro's looks more faded and washed out.

No. It is not Optimus Maximus, nor is it Ultra Prime.

It is "Convoy Grand Prime", written in plan English on the box.

Image

All of the Unite Warriors boxes write the English names in English (meaning that Unite Warriors Guardian has his name written as "Defensor" in English), so this isn't a case of "Convoy Grand Prime" being just the Japanese name of either Ultra Prime or Optimus Maximus. This is a third combiner form for Optimus.

yeah, I think people have a tough time understanding because it is indeed a tad bit confusing but in truth the CW and UW lines together have given us a total of 3 different Combiners where Optimus is the torso:

Ultra Prime (the red torso with any limbs)
Optimus Maximus (white torso with the first phase of 84 bot limbs)
Convoy Grand Prime (red torso with the first phase of 84 bot limbs)

This does make me ask adumb question Sabr. Is it only Convoy Grand Prime if I buy the takara UW set? Or can I make my own Convoy Grand Prime using the hasbro versions of those molds/decos? If I put the red hasbro optimus torso with the hasbro autobot limbs is he still Ultra prime (since he is all hasbro) or does he become the hasbro deco version of Convoy Grand Prime?
