Interesting Bit Of Info...

[Gundam Prime]

I'm not sure if this is new to anyone or not but it caught my attention when reading the headlines at Tformers:

 

There will be Convoys for each of the planets which we know Galaxy Convoy will be one but two more has been unveiled named Flame Convoy & Nitroglycerine/Nitro Convoy.

 

Perhaps Flame Convoy = Rodimus Prime and Nitro Convoy = ????. I just hope these are not repaints of GF Prime. And whose ultimate leader among the three?

[DPrime]

Hey hey - now that's cool! We all know there's a Vector Prime, right?

[Gundam Prime]

Yeah, but he's Vector Prime, neither Flame nor Nitro Convoy.

[Jim Davis]

Nitro Convoy and Flame Convoy huh. Well i like the Rodimus theory makes sense, as for the other Ultra Magnus maybe or maybe a totally new leader. Did they ditch the powerlinx combinations?

[Chug]

If someone says "This looks like a job for 'so and so'", then I swear to God, I'm going to beat the life out of my Unicron.

 

 

 

 

Well, maybe I won't do something that drastic.....maybe just a sack of kittens instead. @smilepunch@

Hmm, an interesting bit of information. I'm not quite sure what to make of it yet, but thanks for sharing.

Remember! In japan Convoy is just a TERM! A Title! Much like prime is here!

 

Rodimus - Prime

 

Optimus Prime

 

The other convoys will most likely not be other optimus's just other "convoys" Leaders of whatever particular planet they are asigned too!

[DJ HMRising]

Sounds like there might be a traitor...

[D-Bot]

Nitro Convoy to me sounds like it could be a Scourge equivalent

 

the Flame Convoy sounds like rodimus as well

[DPrime]

Black primes are always cool... This might prove to be interesting.

 

I've always viewed "Prime" to be a rank rather than a name, which is why Hod Rod became Rodimus Prime (then demoted to Rodimus Major - ha!).

Great deduction there Sherlock

[computron]

three primes? i wonder if there will be 3 megatrons??

[Grady]

HEY While we're at it, how about THREE Insecticons ?

[rodimusconvoy21]

Assuming those are repaints, what is the price point of Prime? Just to know how much to spend.

[Insane Galvatron]

While we're at it, why not 3 triple-changers?

 

That's be like 9 modes...... @smilepunch@

Not sure whats supposed to be so funny, but "Major" is an honorary title bestowed on AUTOBOTS who exhibit great potential. So its not a rank, but a title of esteem.

 

And he wasnt demoted. He stepped down voluntarily and allowed Prime to resume command.

[Chug]

Oh Doc, he did get demoted. It was done by a ruling body called the "7-9 year old viewers that wanted Optimus Prime back, otherwise they won't get their parents to buy any more of the current toys". @smilepunch@

Just because you step down voluntarily doesn't mean it's not a demotion, dude. It's still a step down the ladder.

 

And I'm not trying to be funny - you do know the real reason he's called Rodimus Major is because there were trademark difficulties with the name "Hot Rod", right? I was just making light of that fact.

[Stevy Maximus]

Cybertron Optimus Prime will be $40 when he gets released next summer, if you want to import a Galaxy Force convoy, look at $50-60.

 

Considering there are all indications of 3-4 Convoys, I would suspect that they will be new, smaller, molds, rather than a 3 versions of a Super toy.

[heroicnonsense]

While we're at it, how about three annoying anime teens?!

[Metatron1050]

how bout STFU everybody
