I'm with you on the Prime mold, and I'm not particular about the Hot Rod mold, but after getting the Ghost Starscream, I've devloped an affinity toward the clear plastic figures, and that's what tempts me on this set. Not buying it, but tempted.

He said that he liked Rodimus much better than Optimus Prime, so that's why there's only a few pictures of Prime. Thanks to CW2009 for taking the time to post the images of this set!

Seriously, Roddy's all clear but Optimus has to have opaque shoulder pieces?
Even if I liked this mold, that would kill it for me.

In all honesty it's tough to say sine all we have seen are prototype pics of Protector with the gray finish.. Until a color scheme is shown it remains to be seen..IMO I would try and have this version and a regular classics Roddy..I would toss in a takara one as well as I have a feeling Protector will be a darker red, such as the Takara...

They changed the color of the missile, similar to what they did in some of there clear sets. Yeah Prime/Convoy is fugly, but they already did the crytsal Clear Henkie Convoy already, and you see how much you'll pay for that now. Seeing I have two Classics Rodiums (sold #3), I think getting the clear version is cheaper than buying the regular Henkei version for now. We know clear figures can get higher and demand for the clear version will soar.
I don't want to pay higher prices for something I will want, so I preordered this set back in July with BBTS. TFSource has sold out of it's pre-order.

Well, it just so happens that translucent plastic doesn't take stress as well as opaque plastics. It's far too sturdy, making breakage more likely, while opaques can "bend" to a farther degree.
