Hopefully they will do something similar so he can sit lower. It'll be nice if they did something to make the front hatches able to open up.

I am still slightly disappointed. For starters because it's only 1 figure instead of 2. But Like I've said previously if they were going to do a tank version of Prime instead of the APC then I wanted it to be a Mauler since it has NEVER been released a second time. Whereas the MOBAT came out again in the late 90s and then again in the 25th line and the vintage ones are a dime a dozen. I don't need anymore MOBATS, what I'm sorely lacking is a Mauler for my collection.

Such a weird vehicle choice for Prime. It really goes against Primes personality and beliefs to be a weapon of war. The APC would have been so much more fitting for Prime or just keeping his normal vehicle mode and making it military colors. I would scoop up a Joe scaled military truck with a flat bed trailer to haul the Bumblebee awe striker on in a heartbeat.
Warpath was the Autobots tank and would have been way more fitting as the Mobat. Seems the designers of this line are picking Alt modes at random after they made Megatron. |

Kind of bizarre they're releasing these without the original drivers. For what they're charging each one should come with the driver plus an extra figure.

While I am disappointed, I cannot argue that the MOBAT isn't an iconic joe vehicle. And in my long-loved and torn childhood Marvel Transformers #1, Prime's Cybertron alt mode was tank-like. This was before the cartoon created Orion Pax. So I can't be too mad.
This does create, with the rumored Kup, a 3:2 balance (unless you count Ravage), so the Decepticons need a Starscream to even things out... |

I'd like to know how they are picking the alt-modes too. At first I thought it was based on vehicles they had recent molds for (They always keep re-releasing the dang HISS Tank and AWE Striker for goodness sake).
But the Dreadnoks got the Thunder Machine and Sgt Slaughter got his Triple T. And those two vehicles weren't apart of the modern era. Kind of interesting how they have the new Sky-Striker mold and didn't make a transforming Starscream or Jet Fire. I'm sure it will be 1986 Hawk instead of the 1982 Hawk, but that'd be cool to get a '82 Hawk re-issue. Last edited by CobraBlue; 12-25-2023 at 12:49 AM.. |

As someone with no love for the MOBAT beyond "it's ARAH G.I. Joe", this is excellent news.
Now we need to hear about the next Decepticon/Cobra rig to keep the shelves balanced.

This is the one I've been waiting for. Mobatimus Prime might be just the thing to make go for one of these. I'll see if I can work it into my ever shrinking budget.
